The Poinsett Bride
Many little girls dream of floating down the aisle in the perfect dress, and for six years, The Poinsett Bride has been the place to make that dream come true. From simple and elegant to full-scale princess, the expert staff at The Poinsett Bride ensures each bride looks her absolute best.
In 2010, the shop was voted No. 1 in the Upstate for customer service at theknot.com, and co-owner Vicky Makkas says it’s attention to detail that makes The Poinsett Bride stand out. Customers stay informed throughout the ordering process, and alterations are done on-site by the sure hands of co-owner Paula Makkas, who has been sewing since age 11. “It needs to fit perfectly to look perfect,” Vicky says.
The accessories section is unparalleled, and the shop even stores your dress for you, pressing it to perfection before portraits and again for the big day.
Vicky and Paula understand the economic times, and therefore stock an array of bridal gowns – as well as cocktail and evening dresses – at a variety of price points, so you can achieve that couture look no matter your budget.
Customer Experience
Paula Knows What you Want to a "T"!
My daughter is VERY happy with her wedding dress that Paula re-designed. She did a beautiful job even down to the finest detail of lace that she added to the dress that made it look like a one of a kind! She definitely knows what she is doing. She even fitted my dress and it's a perfect fit!
The Best in the Business!
Vicky and Paula are the go-to gals for Wedding, Bridesmaid, and Cocktail dresses! They have an eye for style, and they can tell by looking at you what dress would be the most flattering for your figure. They not only make the experience a successful one, but a personal one as well. I know from experience that they are the best in the business!!
