Diamond in the rough!

Dina's Bridal is no frills and not fancy shmancy but they really know their stuff. It is an amazing find, so don't worry about any negative reviews you read - they aren't true. Gina (the daughter) is awesome, we got to know each other very well since i felt like i was in there 100 times with all 3 of my sisters throughout the whole process - she really knows what she is doing and gives you her total honest opinion, so trust her!! I made 3 appts for my sister who got married this weekend. Dina's was our first stop and after trying on 3 dresses, i called the other places to cancel - look no further!! My sister didn't really know what she wanted but had an idea. She told Gina what she did and did not like, and Gina pulled a few dresses from the racks for her. All looked great but the 3rd dress she tried on was definitely "the one", it was absolutely gorgeous, fit her body like a glove and EXTREMELY reasonably priced (i'm talking less than $500). Gina also gave her the perfect bustier type bra to wear under her gown and we got her veil there too (FYI - Dina's also carries bustiers, shoes, hair accessories like tiaras, veils and bridal jewelry). Gina and Dina do all of the alterations and the dress came out beautiful.

My 3 sisters and I were all bridesmaids and we all got our dresses from Dina's. They were gorgeous - all 4 of us (including the bride) ordered Watters/WTOO dresses - Dina's had a pretty good selection of samples in the store but can order any style you want that you see on the designer's website (they also carry a lot of popular bridal/bridesmaid lines like Bill Levkoff). We each ordered a different style but in the same color and Gina did all of the alterations for us as well. Another bridesmaid who lives in Japan also ordered her dress from Dina's and they shipped it to her and it was perfect. Mine was style #264 and i loved it. My sisters got #762 and #367 which were very pretty too. They all happened to be in duchess satin and were each around $165 not including alterations (mine were about $65 but i am sure they vary depending on what needs to be done). We all got so many compliments on our dresses!

Their customer service is great and they make you feel like family here. i would highly recommend Dina's as the first and only stop for any bride-to-be!!

• Pros: great selection, nice family store, reasonable prices!!
• Cons: not much, need to get their website back up and running!

Dina's is SIMPLY THE BEST!

by AngieAndMarvin at Citysearch

We had been searching for the right wedding dress for months. Having already gone to David's Bridal, Wilshire Bridal, all the major retailers, and several other shops of varying price ranges, both online and local, we were almost ready to give up.

But once we met Dina and Gina, we knew we were in the right place. They are extremely knowledgeable about trends and styles, and are amazing seamstresses.

This boutique has a surprisingly diverse assortment of gowns in its inventory, considering its size. And they have gowns for every budget.

Their flexibility and commitment to doing the right thing (versus selling you what's most expensive) is quite refreshing.

But what impressed me most was Gina's intuitiveness. She truly listens to her clients and even 'reads between the lines' to help the bride bring her vision to life.

We ended up buying our flower girl's dress here as well.

We cannot possibly recommend this business highly enough. Our only regret is that we wasted precious time by not coming to Dina's first!

• Pros: Absolute professionalism with lots and lots of heart
• Cons: Just be mindful of the parking meters.
