Celebrate - Bettendorf, Iowa

Purchase from this store at your own risk! The owner closed two shops in Michigan and Texas, promising brides who had already paid in full that their dresses would be shipped to their homes with no intent to fulfill the orders. She left countless brides, including my sister in law, dressless and out thousands of dollars, changed her number, skipped town, and bought this shop. Search "Love Story Bridal, Frankenmuth MI" for the news coverage.

Do Not Trust This Shop!

I cannot believe the audacity of the owner of this dress shop. This shop recently opened, but if you do any research, you'll find that this is not the owner's first time pulling this stunt. She closed her previous wedding dress shop in Frankenmuth, Michigan suddenly, leaving brides and bridesmaids without their dresses and out thousands of dollars. There was no warning, no communication, and no refunds. People’s weddings were ruined, and the owner went completely no contact—disappearing without a trace after taking their money.

This isn’t a one-time mistake, either! The worst part? She did the exact same thing in Austin before coming to Michigan! She took deposits and payments, vanished, and left brides scrambling for dresses at the last minute. There are news articles documenting this behavior, and yet somehow, she’s been allowed to open a new business and pull the same scam again.

Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY from this shop. No one should ever have to go through what these brides went through, and you deserve better than to be treated this way. There are many reputable, trustworthy bridal shops out there that will actually honor their commitments. Don’t let this owner ruin your big day like she’s done to so many others.

Save your time, money, and sanity—do NOT trust this shop!

This is a fraudulent shop and the woman running it is a scam artist. I found my perfect dress at Love Story bridal in Frankenmuth Mi. The shop closed about a month after and was expected to have it shipped to me. Nope, completely ghosted me and many other brides. I put my trust into someone and they took advantage of that. Please please find another shop to find your dress. This is not a safe place to allow any trust

I had looked at other places for my wedding dress prior to going to Celebrate and their prices and selections were not that great. Celebrate had a great selection to choose from and reasonable pricing. There was an issue with the fitting of the dress I had ordered originally from them and the owner did everything she could to help me fix the issue. Planning a wedding was stressful and I was probably not the easiest person to work with but she assured me everything would work out. And it did. She also personally called a seamstress to get me in when I couldn’t get in anywhere else. I ended up with my dream dress and a couple of my bridesmaids dresses as well. I am very thankful to her and the staff at Celebrate.

First time customer, The store is clean and well organized. The owners are so kind, friendly, and really helpful!! Went above and beyond to make to answer my questions and give me details about the different dresses I looked at. Very comfortable atmosphere, It was so nice that they were not pushy or overbearing at all.
Best part was the amazing deal/sale they had going on! (Prices are great but this sale incredible) They let me know of upcoming events and sales too. I'll definitely be back to shop again!

SCAM ALERT! The new owner of this store has scammed many brides, my friend included, out of their dress and their money! She previously owned a shop in Frankenmuth, MI and before that it looks like one in Texas. Many brides losing money there and now she has moved on to this shop. Shopping here is a RISK! I suggest finding your bridal attire elsewhere.

The owner of this shop scammed brides and bridesmaids in Michigan and Texas, taking their money and never delivering the dresses, RUINING weddings. Now they’re trying to do the same thing in Iowa!
Do your research—do not trust them with your special day.

Celebrate QC is where I bought my wedding dress/bridesmaids dresses, got my dress steamed for my wedding, and bought my cleaning/preservation kit for my dress. During my appointment, Sheleigh listened to what I wanted and made me feel comfortable! She helped me find my yes dress in my 1st appointment! Celebrate QC has wedding dresses in all price ranges, is easy to communicate with(I texted with them often when I had a question), and makes you feel that you're appointment is important!
