2023 Wedding Dress Store Reviews

Nordstrom

• Free shipping on all orders
• Free returns
• "A+" Better Business Bureau rating
• Unfiltered customer reviews on products

Nordstrom is a well-known American chain store with over 468 brick-and-mortar locations. They were founded in 1901, originally as a shoe store, and have grown to include luxury clothing, shoes, fragrances, accessories, beauty products, and gifts for men, women, and children. You can buy nearly any type of apparel at Nordstrom, but when it comes to wedding dresses, you won't have much of a selection.

Not a wedding dress retailer

When you're searching for wedding dresses at Nordstrom, over 1,960 results come up. Initially this is exciting until you realize that this includes shoes and nearly any other type of dress. The blue floral midi dresses, bright orange satin ruffle gowns, and maternity wrap dresses probably won't be most people's first choice for a wedding gown. Needless to say, Nordstrom isn't trying to be a wedding dress retailer.

Free delivery

You can easily sort all the dresses at Nordstrom by the color white and view your options. Although most dresses aren't meant to be wedding dresses, surely you could find some formal gowns to fit the bill. Their product descriptions give plenty of sizing details, fabric information, and delivery timeframes to help you make a smart purchase. Nordstrom doesn't do made-to-order dresses, so you'll know right away how soon you can expect your dress. Shipping is always free and if you live near a Nordstrom store, you can select in-store pickup at checkout and get your wedding dress even faster if they have it in stock.

Customer feedback and photos

Since Nordstrom is a popular retailer, many of the clothing items they sell - including their dresses - have customer reviews about them. This helps you to know if the dress runs large or small, what the material quality is like, and how fast shipping is. It's most helpful when customers post pictures of themselves in the dress to give you an idea of how it looks on different body types.

3 return options

If you need to make a return to Nordstrom, you won't have to jump through hoops to do it. If you live near one of their retail locations, you can take your wedding dress to the store and initiate your return with their customer service desk. If you'd rather start your return online, you can drop off your items with contactless curbside returns at any Nordstrom store. The third option is to initiate your return online and use Nordstrom's prepaid shipping label to send your dress through the mail. After 5-7 days of processing your return, you will get a full refund via the original payment method.

Shop here if it isn't for your wedding dress

Nordstrom is a reputable company that has a nearly unbeatable selection of all types of apparel. They have an "A+" rating from the Better Business Bureau and a loyal customer base. However, when it comes to wedding dresses, their selection is weak. We can't fault them for that since they don't advertise themselves as a place that specializes in selling wedding dresses. We are big fans of Nordstrom, but for wedding dress shopping we'd encourage you to look elsewhere.
