    A+ experience

    I bought my Madi Lane wedding dress at Merlili and they altered it to perfection. From the first shopping day through all my fittings, the ladies at Merlili made me feel like a valued guest. Their great selection and personalized assistance helped me find the dress of my dreams! :)

    Most Amazing Wedding Dress Shopping Experience

    I had the most amazing experience with Merlili Bridal Boutique. I was specifically interested in trying on Wona Concept dresses because of a sentimental tie with the Ukrainian designer and Merlili more than delivered. I worked with Manuela who is an absolute treasure!!! She is so nice, professional, and highly informed and educated about all the dresses, designers, etc! I wasn’t really sure about style or silhouette so she made sure I tried several different types of dresses until I knew what I liked best. I ended up doing an Avrora dress with Yasmin overskirt and let me just say wow!!! I’m so in love with my dress and wish I could wear it over and over again! You definitely need to visit Merlili. You will be eternally grateful!

    Marta is a sweetheart!

    I purchased my dress today from Merlili. Marta helped me and she was the sweetest. She was adaptable, patient, and honest. I am very grateful for her helping me find a dress after trying on hundreds at other stores. My dress was well-priced as I got an overskirt and dress for half the cost of what I would have had to pay elsewhere.

    Amazing Place!

    I had an amazing experience purchasing my wedding dress from Merlili Bridal! Maria Teresa was such an awesome consultant, she really helped push me out of my comfort zone and what I originally envisioned I wanted. I ended up going with a completely different style than what I went in wanting and I absolutely love it. I 100% recommend this shop, if you can book with Maria Teresa you won't be disappointed!

    A perfect experience!

    My wedding dress team (mom and best friend) and I, traveled to Miami for a two-day dress hunt/girls vacation! The customer service with Merlili was great from the beginning, from prompt response here on Wedding Wire, to flexibility when I needed to change the date due to COVID. My appointment was early in the morning during a week day and we had the store to ourselves. My consultant Maria Teresa was so caring and knowledgable. I loved the dresses she chose and was really happy that she allowed us to also look around the store and choose options. Seriously, the selection is absolutely gorgeous, I literally felt like a kid in a candy store! Thank you to Maria Teresa for her patience, even when I decided to honor my other appointment I had that day. Ultimately, I returned, and said yes to a stunning Wona Concept gown! Maria Teresa stuck around after hours so I could come back and officially say yes to the dress, complete with pictures and a glass of champagne. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Merlili! :-)

    Find a One of a Kind Dress Without the Stress

    From the moment I walked into the shop, I fell in love with Merlili. The shop is so beautiful, open and well-organized with hundreds of gorgeous dresses and accessories to choose from. With the help of my consultant, I picked out about 8 dresses to try on and as fate would have it... the one dress she talked me into picking was my absolute favorite once I put it on.

    After finding "the one" the ordering and alterations processes were a breeze! Although I know alterations were pretty hefty for the seamstress, (I'm 5'0 and the train on my dress was unreal!) she finished everything in a timely manner and to perfection!

    OH and did I mention I live in Tampa!? I only made 3 trips to the store and was able to work it around my scheduled trips and with plenty of time before my wedding.

    I love Merlili Bridal and would 100% recommend it to anyone who is looking to have a show stopping dress (without the stress) for their big day!

    Most amazing bridal salon ever!

    Had the best experience here ever- Marta was so sweet. She let me pick dresses I thought I liked as well as choosing ones that she should would fit my vision and my body. Luckily, I found my dress on my first visit. I did not have to look at any other bridal boutiques for my dress. Merlili answered all of my questions, had my alterations done in 1 week (so fast!!!!) and I loved every inch of my dress. Other than our wedding food and vows, my dress was the number 1 thing our guests raved about. One of my husband's friends even told us that he wanted to RE-marry his wife and make her wear my dress because it was so amazing! Couldn't have felt any better than I did in my dress from Merlili

    Merlili Bridal Boutique's reply:

    Katie, we cannot express how much we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We wish you and your new hubby a lifetime of happiness!

    Great experience, staff was very friendly and genuine

    I found my dress here after looking at a lot of different places in Miracle Mile (Coral Gables). They had the most affordable pricing based on what I wanted. Also, the staff is very friendly and genuine, I did not feel like they were pushing me to get a dress right away.

    Seriously the BEST service! Merlili was my last bridal shop of my experience. I had had a tough and long day and was beginning to feel discouraged, until I walked in here. Their prices were amazing, their bridal consultants were amazing, and my seamstress was amazing. I cannot say enough good things about them.

    I was on a budget for my wedding, and the Miracle Mile bridal shops were all so pricey and I was shocked when I saw how affordable they were for couture gowns.

    I was also on a tight time constraint (my engagement was only a few months) and they made sure it got here in plenty of time, even following up with the company that made the dress multiple times with all my requests and inquiries.

    I was so nervous about seeing my dress that the second it came in they let me come look at it to calm my nerves. It really felt like a big family in there and it was so amazing. Even the seamstress who spoke mostly Spanish (which I do not), never ONCE got frustrated with me and worked her absolute hardest on my dress and it came out better than I could have ever dreamed.

    I HIGHLY recommend Merlili for all of your Bridal needs! They hear your vision, and know exactly what you are looking for and are so so sweet and helpful!

    Marta Marta Marta!!! This lady right here!!! Ok let me gather my thoughts...lol...My mother and I decided to go to Miracle Mile to shop for my wedding gown. From the moment I walked through the door Marta greeted me with a smile and the warmest heart a bride could ask for. I pulled about 7 or 8 dresses and Marta helped me get into all of them, I felt like I was being dressed by my Latin Godmother. Then when I tried on THE ONE her and I looked at each other in the dressing room and said "This is It". I showed my mom the dress and she agreed but I thought it was too soon to decide (Merlili was only the 2nd dress shop I'd been to). So I walked out the store and went next door with Marta's voice in my head saying "you're going to come right back," and boy was she right. I walked into my 3rd dress shop and nothing compared to the service and dress selection like the one I encountered at Merlili. I went back the same day with a smile on my face tried on the same dress for the 3rd time and said YES! this is it!.

    To future brides don't get lost in going into every store on Miracle Mile. Just walk into Merlili and you're bound to find the designer and style you're looking for. And trust me if it doesn't fit you well, Marta will tell you :-)

    I can't wait to go back for my fitting!

    Everyone at Merlili was an absolute pleasure to work with from day one! They helped me pick out a dress that was a perfect fit for me, were patient and kind throughout the entire process and didn't push me to choose a dress that didn't look perfect! They were so nice and friendly and were genuinely excited for my wedding! They have a wonderful selection of dresses (I wish I could have left home with all of them!) and such sweet customer service unlike anywhere else in that area. I've recommended them to several brides already and everyone has been pleased with their selection and service.

    Merlili bridal had the dress that I had been searching for! They hemmed it perfectly considering that it was a very difficult material! I felt beautiful on my wedding day. The store is very clean and the staff are welcoming and nice.

    Where do I begin! Dress shopping was so hard for me. I was looking for a specific dress and none of the bridal shops in my area had it. I placed a call to Merlili Bridal Boutique, and it has been nothing but a positive experience since that day! The ladies are all so nice, and they pay attention to every request that the bride has. A lot of bridal salons are focused on making a sale. The ladies at Merlili were more focused on what I liked, what I felt comfortable in, and making sure I enjoyed my dress shopping experience. They have a wide variety of dresses to choose from, and thank God I caught my dress during a trunk show, so I was able to get a discount! I don't know where I would have gone, if I had not stumbled upon Merlili Bridal Boutique!

    Great customer service experience i had with Merlilli. I mostly dealt with Lily, the owner who was exceptional. She made sure that my dress and experience was perfect. I also used Merlili for the bridesmaids dresses. I highly recommend Lily and her team to anyone looking for affordable bridal dress.

    I found my perfect dress at Merlili Bridal Boutique. The first time I went to the store was without an appointment (just planned to window shop). The staff invited me to try on dresses if I'd like even without an appointment. The staff was friendly and never pushy. I didn't get to do a first fitting until 2 days before my wedding (since I live out of state) but they were able to do all the alterations that same day. My dress fit perfectly and was everything I ever dreamed of. They had a great selection of dresses, veils, and accessories.

    I had the best experience with the Merlili family, yes that it what I like to call them. Beautiful dresses and very competitive prices given they are in Coral Gables. My dress was more than I dream come true!!!!! The staff were always so nice and the store has a very personal feeling. Highly recommend this vendor, it becomes part of the beautiful experience!!1 Thank you Merlili!

    Merlili was the best wedding dress experience I had throughout my wedding dress shopping experience. From the minute you come in, it is welcoming with no stress unlike the other bridal shops in Miracle Mile. Marta immediately assisted me in picking and trying on dresses without making me feel rushed. I had to come in three times for alterations but the dress fit perfect on my wedding day! I could not have asked for a better experience. I also had the opportunity of running into the owner quite a few times and she was always so sweet. Overall, Marta is so patient and gave me that genuine warmth feeling every bride deserves to have when shopping for the most important day of her life.

    I had gone shopping all around miracle mile and other stores in the area for wedding dresses and finally arrived at Merlili. I was so happy when I walked in and the staff there made me feel so comfortable and at home. I knew the style of dress I wanted and the store found the exact dress for me. They also even let me modify the top. The dress turned out so perfectly and beautiful! I could not imagine it any other way. I received so many compliments on the dress and the accessories I got at Merlili, which were my veil and belt. They were all so beautiful. I had a great experience with my dress at Merlili. They were all so great.
