I cannot say enough amazing things about Andi and her team at Love Bird Bridal Shop in Mystic. In searching for my bridal gown, I was struggling to find one that was made in the US (I was on a time crunch, worried about my gown arriving from out of the country on time, and would rather keep the money in my own community). I was thrilled to find that Love Bird right in my hometown of Mystic not only had US-made gowns, but custom-to-you gowns made right in CT as well! I met with Andi many times to select and customize my gown from her own line (Andria Bird). Andi created the gown of my DREAMS for me - simple, classic, and including some sentimental and handpicked components that I never would have gotten from another bridal shop. Andi's attention to detail, personality, and laid-back energy (MUCH needed in the wedding planning process) are amazing. I am still receiving endless compliments on my gown, and am going to treasure it forever. Andi, I cannot thank you enough for everything!

Andi and this shop are amazing! This was the only bridal shop I visited for my wedding gown, and found the perfect one on my third dress; a beautiful gown from Love Lives Here Bridal. Andi was so awesome when we accessorized and I ended up going with an Andria Bird sash and veil as well, each just as gorgeous as the dress! Additionally, when Covid messed up my 2020 wedding plans, Andi was so helpful and calming when I was trying to figure out what to do for another dress for a small 2020 wedding. After trying on another round of dresses, I ended up going with an Andria Bird original dress and absolutely loved it! Andi also turned two of my grandmothers brooches into a beautiful hair comb that I wore for both weddings! Throughout the entire process (two dresses, accessories, fittings, etc.) Andi has been so incredible, I’m definitely going to miss going to the shop, and I get teary eyed every time I drive by!

Love Bird Bridal shop did an amazing job on my wedding dress. They worked with me to make additions to one of their base designs that came out unique and beautiful just like I wanted. I was able to incorporate a removable lace skirt, jeweled belt for the reception, and lace trimming. They were very accommodating with alternations throughout the process, even performing one a few days before the wedding at the last minute. I cannot say enough about how kind and helpful Andi was throughout the whole process. Thank you!!
