    Lovely experience

    I had such a great experience at Lfay in Chatham. They carry many Europen designs and have fair prices. Nico did a wonderful job assisting me and I ended up saying yes to the dress!

    Amazing time.

    Nico was my consultant, and he was an absolute joy to shop with! This was my first time wedding dress shopping, and I left with my dream wedding dress. His ability to make you feel so comfortable and beautiful (without being pushy) made me just know my dress was the one. He pushed me outside of my original idea with styles, and I'm glad he did, because the dress I picked was perfect for me and nothing like I originally wanted!

    Wonderful Wedding Dress Shopping Experience

    L'Fay was the first bridal shop I visited when wedding dress shopping and it was by far the best one! Sarah was so lovely and really paid attention to my budget and style preferences when selecting dresses for me to try on. I actually ended up coming back to L'Fay at the end of the day and selecting the first dress I tried on - it was a winner! I also got my wedding jewelry here and I felt so beautiful on my wedding day! If you want a very personalized shopping experience and a wide selection of exquisite dresses, choose L'Fay Bridal in Chatham!

    Had an amazing experience!

    L’Fay was my 4th stop. I was hell bent on not going into the city for my dress because of all the fittings and picking up. When I scheduled they were having a @BertaBridal trunk show and when I tried on my gown I just knew. I am incredibly indecisive and always thought that you know when you know it was BS and it is not. I wanted an overskirt or detachable sleeves and I ended up going with a beautifully beaded cap sleeve dress with an extraordinary overskirt. Nico is AMAZING! Shauna the seamstress is so lovely, talented and patient. These dresses are stunning but not made for girls with any curves but after 5 fittings to make sure everything was perfect!

    What a wonderful experience during these weird COVID times!

    I cannot recommend L'Fay enough. Due to COVID - I was very delayed in looking for a wedding dress, and was becoming increasingly nervous that I wouldn't find one in time before my wedding in Feb 2021. Finally once things started opening up again, I heavily researched boutiques in the NYC/NJ area. I ended up calling L'Fay and scheduling an appointment at the NJ location, and after speaking on the phone with one of their employees, I had a warm feeling I was going to find my dress here. From the moment I walked in I felt welcomed, at ease, and safe! They carried out precautions in the nicest but safest way possible by taking temperatures when walking in, and made sure everyone kept their masks on the entire time. A reason I booked L'Fay is because they are the only bridal boutique in NJ that carries Berta - and let me say they have a HUGE Berta collection. My eyes lit up the moment I walked in the store! The first dress I tried on was a Berta I saw within the first few minutes of being in the shop. Although it was over budget, I couldn't get this dress out of my head. Mikeala was helping me, and she was beyond nice, patient, and not pushy whatsoever. I would recommend her to any bride looking for the perfect gown. She happily let me try on numerous dresses and did not make me feel rushed or like I needed to make a decision right away at all. She made the entire experience a pleasure, despite how uncertain everything is feeling right now!! I had another bridal appointment the same week, and had the exact opposite experience of the one mentioned above. I called Mikeala a few days later to order the Berta. Go with L'Fay!

    The Perfect Experience!

    I am so happy I was able to find my dream dress at L'Fay. If you want a personalized, boutique experience, this is the place for you!! My appointment at L'Fay came after a disappointing experience at a larger store. I loved that I was able to walk around and hand pick every dress I wanted to try on at L'Fay. I never felt rushed or pressured...I truly was able to take my time and take it all in. As luck would have it, my dream dress was actually the last dress left in the dressing room to try on! The stunning Matthew Christopher design was everything I ever dreamed of. The minute I saw myself in the mirror I suddenly felt like a true bride. The attention to detail and intricacy was beyond gorgeous. My experience at L'Fay only got better with my alterations and fittings. Shauna, my seamstress, was incredible. My dress fit like a glove...as if Matthew Christopher himself came to sew the dress for me personally. She even created a custom bustle feature to help my bustle work perfectly with my dress. Her work blew me away. I am STILL getting compliments on my dress!! Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience!

    A Gem of a Boutique!

    My daughter's wedding was last month (9/15/19) and she got her beautiful wedding gown at L'Fay. We had visited a larger bridal shop and were really not happy with the selection of dresses. We decided to try L'Fay and we were not disappointed! What a fabulous gem of a wedding boutique! The shop is big enough to offer a wide variety of wedding gowns while being small enough to truly give the bride a personalized and intimate shopping experience. Sarah, the sales associate who assisted my daughter, was helpful, patient, and friendly...as was Maddie who helped us with scheduling appointments for fittings and so on. My daughter chose an exquisite Matthew Christopher dress that was pure perfection! Shauna, her seamstress, was nothing short of amazing! She worked carefully and expertly to alter the dress where needed and listened to our feedback every step of the way. From beginning to end, the L'Fay experience was wonderful. I would highly recommend this boutique...particularly for those who are a bit tired of the hustle and bustle of the larger stores. L'Fay had a calm, no-pressure, relaxing approach to helping my daughter find the dress of her dreams... and made her feel really special!

    The Perfect Dress

    The salon has a zen-like peacefulness and I found it fun and relaxing to try on the wedding gowns. The staff is accommodating, enthusiastic, and helpful. My sales girl, Maggie, helped me find a dress that I loved and resonated with my style. She had a good eye and helped me pick out a sash and veil that complemented the dress. The alterations were done to perfection so that my gown fit me beautifully, and comfortably. Our wedding ended at 5:00 p.m. and afterwards we hung out at a hotel bar with some of the traveling guests. By then everyone had changed out of their formal attire but my gown was so comfortable and so “me,” I stayed in it until I went to bed!

    L’fay was the 2nd out of 3 dress shops that I went to. They were not pushy, left me time to decide, and gave me so many tips along the way. Their alterations department is the best, even after I broke the zipper on the dress at my 2nd fitting (oops). I even got champagne when I decided that the dress was the one. They were really flexible with scheduling and just overall a joy to work with.

    A really wonderful experience

    I loved L’Fay! My Mom was very sick at the time I was shopping for my wedding dress and could not be with me at the appointment. Patti was extremely understanding and patient as I tried to find "the dress" without my number one person there with me. I only had a few short months between looking for a dress and the ceremony. Patti made sure my expectations were realistic and helped me find a dress that could be altered in time for the big day. I also want to point out the seamstress, Anita, was wonderful to work with. She helped coach me and my bridesmaids through the best bustle technique and gave honest feedback on how the dress fit. Patti and Anita also went above and beyond when it came to the veil. I had requested that my Mom's wedding dress be made into my veil. Not knowing if this was even possible, I brought the dress in so Patti and team could review and ensure they could find a section of fabric that would work. They found viable fabric and turned it into a beautiful veil. I am so, so appreciative of the kindness and patience of the L'Fay staff and recommend them to my friends and family every chance I get.

    L'Fay Bridal is nothing short of amazing! I was worried that I wouldn't find a dress that fit my vision, but Mikeala made it happen! The dresses and accessories that L'Fay carries are beautiful and of superior quality -- their merchandise was the best by far out of the bridal shops I visited. One of my favorite things about L'Fay is the way that they schedule appointments. During my shopping trips and fittings, I was the only bride there, which made me feel super comftorable to try things on without feeling crowded. In addition, the staff always made my family and friends that accompanied me feel welcome! As I live in Virginia (but am from New Jersey) I was only able too make it for fittings on certain occasions -- the ladies at L'Fay always worked with me to schedule appointments that fit my crazy schedule. I highly recommend L'Fay -- so many options and you will be in great hands!

    L'fay Bridal is simply the best. They were the first place I went to and I was sold. Finding your wedding dress is one of the most stressful parts of wedding planning but they are so patient and accommodating. They never make you feel rushed and the small/intimate setting makes the experience that much more special. I worked with Patty, who is one of the most sincere, funny, and kindest women I have ever met. She gives you her honest opinion and really puts you at ease. Peggy, who did my alterations, did a phenomenal job and really listened to what I wanted and made all the changes in a timely manner. I cannot thank them enough for making my day that much more special!!!

    My experience at L'Fay was superb! After visiting a number of other bridal salons and feeling either rushed or treated like just another average bride, I made an appointment with Patti at L'Fay. They do not overbook so I truly felt I was getting the attention I deserved. Patti helped me find the most perfect wedding dress and called me the moment it came in. My fittings were carefree and they did a fabulous job making sure I was comfortable. I highly recommend L'Fay Bridal, but especially making an appointment with Patti.

    I cannot say enough good things about L'Fay Bridal in Chatham, NJ. I wanted a Berta Bridal wedding dress, and I made an appointment for the trunk show there in April 2016. We drove 2 and a half hours to come to L'fay, because of their great reviews and let me tell you they did not disappoint! The appointment was personalized and not to mention a lot of fun! I felt so welcomed and comfortable, and their opinions were so helpful and honest! I purchased my dream Berta wedding gown and could not wait for it to come in! Their accommodations for the fittings with our travel time and my busy schedule were extremely helpful. I thought I couldn't love my dress more than when I purchased it, but when it was customized by the seamstress I was in awe! When you spend thousands on a wedding gown it is extremely important to have a top notch seamstress, and I am certain that they have the best one out there! She is absolutely AMAZING, and her work is impeccable. She thought of every detail of the wedding night and the functionality of the dress. I cannot thank the entire team at L'Fay enough for making my entire wedding gown experience comfortable, relaxed, and enjoyable! I would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing gown with a fun and personalized experience!

    You feel like a VIP from the moment you walk in the door. I worked with Patti who was amazing. From my first visit to the store they make sure you feel comfortable and fully put together when trying on dresses. When I selected my dress, they go above and beyond to make it perfect for you. I had a belt added to my dress which the tailor sewed in perfectly. My dress had a complicated bustle in the back and she made sure to provide detailed instructions on how to bustle it correctly after my ceremony. I would go back there every time if I could.

    The absolute best! After more than 10 different bridal salons in 4 different states, L'Fay finally made me feel like a bride. My consultant listened to what I wanted and only brought me dresses that fit my description. I was dead-set on an off the should style a-line/ball gown dress and she did not try to talk me out of it like so many other consultants I met with at different salons. I felt very special and taken care of while I was there and almost cried when I received a hand-written note congratulating me on my wedding and choosing a gown. Fittings were effortless and the seamstress is AMAZING. She created the most beautiful bustle on a dress that had a very long train and unique shape. I couldn't have been happier with my experience.

    Everyone at L'Fay was super nice, very welcoming - and it is a lovely shop. They make you feel very comfortable spending a lot of money on one dress. They were prompt at communicating and had really quality dresses in my budget - I definitely wanted to be under $3000. If you're in the NJ area, it's worth a stop by.

    I purchased my wedding gown and veil from L'Fay Bridal and the process from start to finish was absolutely fabulous!! Patty helped me pinpoint exactly what I was looking for in terms of style and fit and was extremely repsonsive any time I had a question. The collection of dresses was stunning. When my perfect dress arrived, the multiple fittings went smoothly, and everyone was extremely knowledgeable and professional. The seamstress is a gooddess! She made my veil from scratch and fit the dress perfectly to my body. I highly recommend involving L'Fay Bridal in your upcoming wedding. They are experts in the industry, reliable, and really treat the brides with outstanding customer service. That you again L'Fay Bridal for providing me with the perfect wedding dress experience!

    I purchased my wedding dress from L'fay for my wedding recently on 9/3/16. The experience is like no other, it was so personal and private which made it even more special when i said "yes!" They even offered to steam my veil for me before i picked it up 2 days before my wedding. They were a pleasure to work with, truly amazing!

    I had my eye on a Berta Bridal gown for a long time and was ecstatic to find out L'Fay Bridal was having a Berta Bridal Trunk Show. Juliana was my consultant for the day and she assisted me with trying on not only Berta designs but a few others just to get a true idea of what I would love. I was so happy to have said yes to the dress! The staff was so friendly and inviting. I put that poor seamstress through some work especially a few days before my wedding day at my final fitting. I still wasn't 100% satisfied with the back of my dress and she was able to fix it perfectly in two days to ensure I would have it ready for my big day! I was so pleased with their service and would definitely recommend them to any future brides to be!

    Beautiful and personal experience

    I had a wonderful experience with L'Fay. Mikeala was so great to work with -- the salon is beautiful and they always made sure it was a quiet and personal experience when I came to try dresses and for fittings. At my final fitting, the dress had a few final touches needed which the seamstress handled within the hour to ensure I could still take home the dress that day. I tried on dresses at a few different places but L'Fay made the experience feel the most special.

    Of the several various stores I went to looking for a wedding gown, which included big name bridal stores, the BEST experience I've had was at L'Fay in Chatham, NJ! Patti and Jeanie were amazing to work with! They understood what I was looking for, how to add little custom pieces to my gown, and were so incredibly nice and sweet. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for an exquisite shopping experience with beautiful gowns and alterations that are unlike any other bridal store.

    My sister bought her dress here, and it was one of two boutiques I wanted to go to. Laura was so accommodating with my appointments, and I even needed to change it a few times. I never ended up going to the second boutique as I found my dress after trying on only five. The reason I really wanted to buy here is because their seamstress is AMAZING. Jeanie, their seamstress, is a miracle working and such a pleasure to work with. When my gown came in in June, it was too small and wouldn't zipper. I had gained about 10-15lbs since purchasing my dress, but when we placed the order, we figured that would happen since I had just had surgery. The size they ordered was correct (6), because if they had ordered an 8, taken it in would have compromised the shape. Jeanie worked diligently over 2 appointments to make sure she got the dress to fit perfectly. Laura is no longer with them, but Patti is equally as amazing. I was so scatter brained the week of my wedding I FORGOT TO PICK MY DRESS UP! They stayed there a little late for me to come get it a few hours after my missed appointment. They are the best!
