Novia Mia Bridal Red Deer

Not a great experience at all. I paid for the VIP appointment so that my group and I had a special day but the only good thing that came from that was the champagne and gift. Such a waste of money. My group was told numerous times that they essentially did not have an opinion and I was told not to listen to them. My group was not being pushy, they were just giving their opinions and I welcomed them, but when I said this to the lady helping me I was told that it’s MY dress and not THEIRS. The dresses that I was being brought were not what I was looking for and when we showed the woman helping us pictures of a couple of dresses that I had tried on earlier at another store (one of which I ended up buying), she picked them apart and told us that they were not right. The whole time she just wanted to make a sale and she didn’t seem to care how she made it.Several times when being helped into my dress I was told, quite rudely, to “suck it in, girl.”When my group would make a suggestion they were immediately shut down. At one point I had a dress on that I liked but ultimately decided that it didn’t fit into my wedding venue/theme. When I said as much, I was told “it’s not about the venue, it’s about the dress.” I disagreed with this and was then asked if I wanted to see it in a more natural light. I agreed and went out to the main room to look at it. A bouquet was then shoved in my hands and a veil stuck in my hair and I was pretty much asked if I was saying “yes” to the dress. I was not.We left my two hour paid appointment 45 minutes early with a bad taste in our mouths and went straight back to the store with the “not right” dresses and bought my dress there (where I had a much more comfortable and friendly experience).My group and I felt like we were walking on eggshells the whole time we were there and like we were an inconvenience. If I could give a 0 rating I would.

I can’t say enough how great my experience at Novia Mia with Lucy was.I came in downtrodden after being at two other bridal shops, I literally had a frustration cry on my way to Novia Mia. Lucy and Lindsay gave me a group hug and built me up before Lucy even started pulling dresses. The dresses they have at Novia Mia were beautiful and I didn’t try on a dress I didn’t like! The whole shop is also a wonderful atmosphere. Lucy was very accommodating with appointment times and making it the best experience possible. I haven’t found my dress yet but Lucy completely turned around my dress shopping experience and I can’t thank her enough!

Novia Mia was great! The atmosphere and the dresses were stunning! This was my last stop of the day! I started off trying on dresses similar to what I had previously tried on at other stores, but ended up finding one that was completely different!It was a lovely experience and I am so happy that I found the dress here! I can't wait for it to arrive!

What a wonderful experience! I am so thankful to Lucy for helping me find my perfect dress. She works hard to ensure that everyone feels welcome, listens to what her brides want in terms of style & budget, and knows her inventory SO well. I would absolutely recommend Novia Mia!

Novia Mia is a beautiful wedding dress shop with the most wonderful Manager, Lucy and Knowledgeable and fun staff member Lindsey who helped my daughter find her perfect wedding dress. The shop is beautifully decorated, with clean and comfortable guest change areas. They have a wonderful selection of bridal gowns and take the time to help the bride find that perfect dress. if you want that special experience shopping for your perfect dress, I would recommend Novia Mia above all others in the area.. Signed….Mother of the bride

I just picked up my dress today and am so excited- it is perfect!! Ever since the initial try on appointment I have had the absolute best experience here! Lindsay and Lucy are both so amazing and kind. All of the dresses they picked for me to try on were gorgeous and were exactly what I had envisioned. I have went to a number of other bridal stores in Edmonton and nothing compared to the experience I had at Novia Mia. Definitely recommend booking an appointment here if you are searching for your dream dress. Thank you so much for making this once in a lifetime dress shopping so fun!

Novia Mia gave me the best experience I could have asked for when wedding dress shopping. They took care of me through the whole experience and are so warm and welcoming. They truly made the experience stress free and so special. Lucy is a sweetheart who will put a huge smile on your face and Lindsey was so amazing as she helped me through trying on different dresses. Thank you for creating such a wonderful experience!

disappointing experiencethe stylist I was given seemed awkward and uninterested in my appointment. I ended up purchasing a dress off the rack and was later told by my seamstress that both hooks on the back of the dress were broken. I had asked my stylist prior to signing paperwork if there was anything wrong with it and she did not mention anything.

Would 100% recommend them! I went to 3 places and they were by far the greatest. Lucy was beyond fabulous to work with, I didn’t feel like I was trying on dresses I felt like I was spending time with just another friend. She listened exactly to what I wanted and only had to try on 4 dresses there and found the one. I also felt like if the dress wasn’t the right size she really pulled it in everywhere super well so you have a great idea of what it will look like. The place is very gorgeous and very personal with just you and your group! We all loved it there!

Wonderful experience! I booked a appt here last min and the ladies were wonderful! I ended up booking a VIP appt which was so much fun! One bridesmaid was about 40 min late for the appt and they were more than understanding with waiting. I almost said yes to the dress the first appointment ! The dresses they have are so beautiful and such great quality. It came in a decent amount of time considering covid made everyone backed up. Such a wonderful unforgettable experience. HIGHLY recommend!! I like that they are by appt only, makes the experience more personable.
