Vintage Wedding Dresses NYC & NJ Maybelle Vintage Bridal Atelier

“Maybelle has so many beautiful vintage bridal dresses, veils, and accessories. And Christine is incredibly knowledgeable, as well as someone who possesses detailed craft for sewing. I had visited three other vintage bridal places in Manhattan, but they were not comparable to Christine's selection in terms of quality and price point. After finding my dress at Christine's, she also helped me figure out my matching veil and some modest alterations. I absolutely loved my dress, and I really felt there was a timeless quality to her work.”

“I absolutely cannot recommend Christine and Maybelle enough. I brought my grandmothers dress (from the 1940’s) to be restyled for my wedding and not only was it lovingly cared for (steamed, cleaned, and safe), but I had the choice of 3 different designs for the recreation. My dress was transformed, fit me perfectly, was on trend for the season and was the talk of my whole wedding. “

“I am forever grateful that I stumbled upon Christine's work. We worked together over the last six months to breathe new life into a beautiful raw silk dress that I had found at a thrift store. From our first meeting, she was clearly so deeply knowledgeable in her craft. Visiting her studio in NJ was truly a delight. I look forward to working with Christine on whichever vintage dress I end up choosing for my larger wedding celebration in 2027.”

“Christine was wonderful to work with and truly made the process of up cycling my mother’s wedding dress from the 80’s so easy and enjoyable. She was professional, communicative, and did an incredible job bringing my vision to life. I ended up loving the dress so much I wore it for more occasions than I had originally planned. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering wanting to wear a vintage dress!”

“Maybelle found and restored a stunning 1960’s dress, which I wore to my wedding. Several guests said it was the most beautiful dress they’d ever seen, and I agree. I’d been to other stores and found nothing I wanted - but at Maybelle I loved three different dresses. Her work is so unique, with high quality dresses that you truly could not find anywhere else. Can’t recommend enough.”

“I recently had the pleasure of commissioning a custom dress from Maybelle, and I cannot express how thrilled I am …the level of craftsmanship, handwork, and attention to detail that went into creating my dress was simply exceptional.”

“I had such a lovely experience with Christine! She was so knowledgeable, and I’m so happy I found her to do my wedding dress. She also made me a veil that I had envisioned. Would absolutely recommend her!”

“Christine made it such a seamless process. She is so very talented where we were able to take my mom’s 90s dress to a cute two piece top and skirt for an elevated reception look. I’m so beyond impressed with the final result and can’t wait to wear for my reception. I would highly recommended Christine if you are considering upcycling or custom wedding pieces.”

“I had an amazing experience looking for a dress at Christine’s shop. It was the first place I looked and everything I tried on I fell in love with! It was so hard to choose from all the beautiful things she had pulled for me!! She was fabulously accommodating and extremely talented (so many beautiful pieces that she had created from different bits of dresses and so many dresses she had all adjusted herself to fit a vision she had). I couldn’t have asked for a better first dress shopping experience and I ended up buying two dresses that I love so so much!!”

“My first reimagining appointment felt warm and inviting as Christine was open-minded and realistic in talking through what ideas could be possible for my dress. Within a week, I had 4 sketches- two as we discussed, and two were beautiful with creative spins I hadn't even considered, or thought could be possible! She not only brought my vision to life but also made it even better than I could've imagined. f you find yourself like I was--looking at dresses in shops and feeling like they all looked the same, then I hope you also take the leap and try a path like this!”

“Christine's shop is what bridal dreams are made of - it is so perfect and she is so incredible. The dress and veil exceeds what I could have imagined and I am so thankful.
Truly so much beautiful work and love goes into what she does and it shows in every dress. Highly recommend!”
