The Review

"I cannot recommend Tanya and Gilded Social highly enough!

I happened to find Gilded Social through an Instagram search for "Columbus Bridal Shops" and scheduled my appointment with the hopes of just having one boutique bridal shopping experience--something to check off the bucket list and say that I'd done it. When I arrived at the shop in Granville, I was completely blown away by the care that went into selecting the dresses I would try on and curating a comfortable and exciting bridal shopping experience. During my appointment, Tanya was knowledgeable, cognizant of my budget, and, most importantly, dedicated to getting me into the perfect dress. Her honesty was refreshing and her input was helpful and welcome. The dress that I purchased from Tanya was truly perfect for me and for my wedding. It is the most confident I've ever felt in a dress, ever.

The next best decision I made was taking advantage of Tanya's Wedding Day Dressing and Detailing Services. I elected to store my dress with Tanya (I never had to bring it home or worry about my fiancé opening the wrong closet). On the day of my wedding, Tanya transported, steamed and prepared my dress. I did not have to worry about anything. She also steamed and prepped all of my bridesmaid's dresses, leaving us to enjoy our time getting ready and making traveling with their dresses so much more manageable for my bridesmaids. She was behind the scenes in every photo making sure that my dress and veil looked just right, freeing up my Maid of Honor to fully enjoy the moment with me and making all of our photo sessions run smoother and more efficiently. She was prepared for any snag, tear, or hiccup and was so much fun to have behind the scenes!

Most importantly, Tanya has become a wonderful friend of mine. She is dedicated to building a community within her brides and I look forward to each time I get to see her.

To put it simply, there are not enough words to express how much I appreciate Tanya and the positive impact that she had on my dress shopping experience, my wedding day as a whole, and my life since. Gilded Social is truly the most personal bridal experience in Ohio. Guaranteed."
