    Easy to work with

    Koda was my third and final stop for a dress. Being a big lady I couldn’t get a good image other places, Koda made me comfortable. Brittany was so relaxed and not pushy it was wonderful!!

    Amazing Bridal Boutique

    I had the absolute best experience shopping for my wedding dress here! I was nervous about finding something my size that I actually liked, and I had way more options and my problem was narrowing them down - the best kind of problem to have. Koda was great with everything including tailoring the dress, sewing my bra into the dress for me so my girls didn’t fall out, and the staff was just so accommodating, wonderful and made me so excited about my big day. I’d recommend to anyone.

    Thank you so much for the review! Congratulations on your wedding!!! You look just gorgeous in your pictures!

    Excellent Plus Size Bridal Shop

    I found my dream dress at Koda Bridal with staff that showed nothing but warmth, kindness, and patience. I felt like a princess at my June 15th wedding! Another curvy bride was able to feel that way thanks to them!

    This was the very first place that I went looking for my wedding gown. Being a plus size girl I had very low hopes for the prospect of having a ton of selection.... HOLY CRAP was I wrong. I had the greatest experience here. It just so happens that the first dress that I tried on happened to be the one! The staff made me feel so comfortable and absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much! This was an amazing experience.

    Danielle,
    Thank you so much for the warm comments. We love that you were able to try on everything and feel beautiful...You are Beautiful!

    Amazing dress!

    I have never felt more beautiful! The team are so loving and attentive I felt truly special. And if you need alterations, they are AMAZING! As someone who struggles with strapless everything, my dress fit like a glove due to the endless attention to detail from top to bottom to make my dress fit just to me.

    Amanda,
    Thank you for the kind words. Congratulations!!! We are so happy we could fit your dress exactly to your liking!

    I was so stressed out about getting a wedding dress. I had gained a good amount of weight this past year and dreaded the prospect of finding a gown I felt good about. I live in NY but my best friend lives in Erie PA. She recommended we go to Pittsburgh PA and Cleveland to look for a dress while I was visiting her. Our first stop was Koda bridal. Mellissa was friendly, helpful and professional. I picked out 25 dresses and as I tried each dress on she asked what I liked and what I did not like about the dress so she could go through the dresses and eliminate the ones that were similar to what I did not like. When I found my dress which I loved Melissa recommend a vail and headband which went perfectly which made me say yes to the dress! The salon was very private and I did not have to ask for help she was right there through the whole process. I am so grateful to Koda bridal.

    They didn't make me feel like a fat girl

    I am a large person, so I was nervous about the process of looking for a dress. Someone suggested Koda to me, and boy I'm glad they did! I found my dream dress (that one of the owners suggested I try, I never would have tried it on otherwise) and got tons of compliments on it. The Seamstress went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable and she was a delight to see every few weeks,

    These ladies were fantastic and really worked with me to find exactly what I wanted. No regrets! The in-house alterations were great too.

    Being a plus size bride, Koda Bridal provided me with the best dress experience I could have ever asked for. I loved every single dress I tried on! Every appointment was perfect. Jenna, the seamstress, was amazing and was able to do everything that I asked for and more. I even ordered a veil and then cancelled it when I realized it wasn't what I wanted and Koda managed this perfectly. They make you feel at ease during the whole process and I am so thankful that I found them! My dress is gorgeous and I can't wait to wear it for my wedding! Thank you for everything, Koda Bridal!

    My dress was amazing and everyone was super friendly and helpful. I wasnt sure at the beginning because they specialize in plus size about going and trying stuff on but Marybeth did amazingly and I absolutely loved my dress and still get compliments how people loved it 3 weeks later.

    My experience at Koda Bridal was absolutely fantastic. The selection is so varied that i found several dresses I absolutely loved. The best part was being able to order and try on all of the dresses because they were available in my size. I am so happy that i chose a retailer that caters to plus size women, all of my worries about dress shopping were put to rest as soon as I arrived, i immediately felt comfortable. Ever staff member was excellent and helpful beyond words. I cannot recommend Koda Bridal enough. It was one of the most special parts of my wedding experience, hands down.

    This was the second or third bridal shop that i went to. The other shops made me feel like i shouldn't have been shopping in their store since i am a plus size woman but the second i walked into Koda Bridal i felt like this is exactly where i should be and that this is the place that i will be recommending to all my friends when its their time to get married. Koda Bridal is by far hands down and amazing establishment they did everything i asked and were able to give me my dream dress and make my day 100% special. I highly recommend this place to every plus size girl they are amazing and make sure you have that amazing bridal shop feeling every girl searching for her gown should have!

    Koda Bridal is the perfect place to find your wedding gown! Before coming to this salon I was afraid that I was going to be stuck with a standard/typical plus size wedding dress. But at Koda Bridal I had soooo MANY OPTIONS and at a variety of price points. The staff made me feel like royalty at all of my appointments and I couldn't have felt more special. The alterations were also superb and my dress fit perfect!! I can't thank Koda Bridal enough for helping me find the dress of my dreams.

    Koda Bridal changed my life. Being a plus sized bride especially during this stressful time is pure craziness. It was very hard to find a dress to actually try on and envision myself in it. While shopping in traditional bridal salons, I would have to hold the dress up to me and try to picture what it would look like in my size…plus I wouldn’t even get to try it on in my size til I ordered it and paid for it in full. That obviously wasn’t an option and the process of wedding dress buying become more and more cumbersome. I discovered Koda online and booked an appointment immediately. I fell in love with a dress that I normally wouldn’t see myself in and it came out perfect. The listened to every concern I had when trying on a dress and each dress they picked next was better and better! The turnaround time for the ordering was great. I was even able to customize what I wanted my dress to look like. They took a strapless sweetheart neckline and added a full back and sleeves lined so you couldn’t see my extensive tattoo work! It was a DREAM COME TRUE. I cannot recommend Koda enough. They take a normally painstaking process and made it wonderful.

    I had such a great experience with Koda Bridal! From the moment I found their website until the moment my dress was delivered they were wonderful. The fitting room experience was wonderful, as I do not usually like trying on clothes, the woman working with me was helpful and encouraging! This was a once in a lifetime event for me and I am so happy that I found Koda Bridal!

    I cannot recommend this Bridal Salon Enough.

    I was so pleasantly surprised at the experience. This salon made me feel special. They got to know me as a person, listened to my vision and truly devoted their entire time and energy to me, which just made this experience the special, intimate moment it is supposed to be. Everyone was friendly and as excited as I was, and the also never pressured me into any decisions. Their attention to detail, mood, and the care I was given makes me so glad that I decided to go there. I us

    The dresses themselves are gorgeous and the shopping was painless! The bridal consultants know their stuff, and after listening to what I described myself as liking, my consultant pulled dresses that were perfect and made my body look better than I could have imagined. I fell a little bit in love with each dress I put on. Every single dress was well made, and I was never once made to worry about my size.

    Not only do I feel like the dress I chose makes me look like a princess, the staff at the store made me FEEL like a princess.

    I had an amazing experience at Koda Bridal and I wish I could give them 10 stars! I put off dress shopping for a long time because I was self conscious about my size and I didn't want to have a bad experience when finding a wedding dress should be fun. I was stressed out to the point of tears because I thought I'd never be able to find something that was really flattering on me and I desperately wanted something that I felt good wearing. After searching online for plus size bridal boutiques I found Koda Bridal and made an appointment. Let me tell you, they are amazing. They make you feel comfortable and listen to what you like and don't like in a dress after you try each one. They are also very good at finding dresses that flatter your shape. The dress I chose was the 4th one that I tried on! I also found my veil and some accessories. I highly recommend them and they don't just sell plus size dresses they also sell smaller sizes as well. If you are nervous at all about finding something that will fit you when you are wedding dress shopping please go here!

    I could go on for days about how wonderful Koda Bridal is. I just had my appointment with them on Saturday and I am still in shock with how amazing Mary Beth and her team are. Not having tried on any dresses before, my consultant and Mary Beth helped me to figure what looks good on my body and the alterations that can be done to make it even more perfect. I tried on at least 8-10 dresses and found the perfect one very last because of Mary Beths recommendation. They were so patient with me and my family, and there was no sense of urgency at all. They really take the time to focus on you and make sure you're happy. I cant wait to pick up my dress in 6 months!

    Absolute amazing experience for a plus size bride!

    I had such a fantastic experience with the whole Koda Bridal team. I never felt like I was treated poorly or unfairly there, and always felt comfortable. I fell absolutely in love with my dress, and still to this day I'm so happy I ended up with it! I love the fact they market themselves as a plus-size store. It's so rare to find! You won't be disappointed with Koda Bridal!

    Everyone at Koda Bridal was quick to respond and extremely attentive in helping me find my wedding gown. They have a beautiful collection of gowns and I drove all the way from NYC to Pittsburgh to look through their selection. Highly recommended.
