Huge thank you to Laura, Jacy, Marsha and the Stardust team for helping us plan the perfect wedding…read moreday! I'm probably one of the only grooms writing a review for this amazing wedding planning team, but they deserve a shoutout because they're all rockstars. My wife and I started planning our wedding with the Stardust team in 2019 with our wedding originally scheduled for 2020. COVID happened and so it got pushed out to 2021. This meant that we worked closely with the Stardust team for 2 whole years, and they kept us organized (but most importantly calm) throughout the entire process. Laura was our Lead planner, and she is highly efficient, communicative, organized, basically everything you'd want in a wedding planner. She answered all of our questions throughout all kinds of odd hours and helped us bring the wedding vision we had in our mind to reality. It's also important to note that my wife bought her wedding dress here as well, and she looked stunning on wedding day :) If any couple is looking for a wedding planner to plan their perfect wedding, look no further, you got the best in this team.

Update: special thanks to Roxanne & Heather in alterations for making my dress fit like a gorgeous…read moreglove. Both ladies are exceptionally talented and sweet. Their expertise and professionalism was evident throughout all fittings and ensured my dress was ready based on the timeline given. Heather also gave me tips on how to walk and hold my dress, which helped immensely the day of. They made the perfect dress even better. Thank you!

It took me a while to decide to write this review because I hoped I would eventually move past my…read moreexperience, but every time I think about my Dina Hawidi wedding dress, it brings up negative feelings. I'm sharing this so other brides can make an informed decision and avoid a similar experience. I flew across the country with family for a 90-minute appointment, which required a significant investment of time and money. 90 minutes was the only appointment time offered, and extending it required booking and paying for a second appointment. Since they do not take appointments on Sundays and mine was scheduled for a Saturday, that was not an option. The staff selected a few dresses for me to try, none of which I liked. There was one specific dress I traveled there to see, and when I tried it on, I wasn't completely sold. One of the employees (not Dina) said, "Well what is it that you want then?" in a way that felt dismissive. I had only tried on five dresses total, yet I felt pressured to make a decision due to the limited time and the staff appearing visibly frustrated. The shop advertises itself as a customizable dress studio, but based on my experience, the only customization offered was the shape of the neckline. During try-ons, I was asked to stand on a platform, which made the dress appear to be the correct length. In reality, the final dress was much too long, requiring an additional $1,000 in alterations. The sample dresses I tried on had a more modest neckline, which is what I wanted. However, when I picked up my finished dress, the neckline was significantly lower and could not be corrected. This affected many of my wedding photos, and throughout my wedding day I felt uncomfortable and was constantly adjusting a very heavy dress. During checkout, the next appointment arrived and the employee completing my purchase rushed through the process and provided minimal explanation. Only one measurement was taken (shoulder to waist), which I later realized should have raised concerns. At the time, everything felt very rushed, and I did not recognize this until after paying the deposit. In total, I spent approximately $10,000 on the dress and subsequent alterations, and I was extremely unhappy with both the final result and the overall experience. Based on the way this business is presented on Instagram and TikTok, my expectations were very different. I recommend other brides carefully consider their options and choose a place where they feel fully supported and valued throughout the process.

BRIDE BEWARE. TLDR:…read more2/5 of our tuxes did not fit our bridal party (2 days before the wedding), they were extremely rude and showed no remorse or apologies for our situation, when they imputed the wrong sizes into the machine. They also gave us the wrong shoe color. Do you want to worry about none of the tuxes being right 2 days before the wedding? I don't think so. My experience with the Jos a Bank tuxedo rental was my own personal hell. First I called and asked about renting tuxes, they said first we could come in and pick out a set to rent before having our groomsmen in to get measured. I asked if we could do both steps at once and they said NO. Only the bride and groom were allowed to come in and pick out their colors/tuxes, then later everyone could come get measured. This is so strange to me because anyone who is planning a wedding knows it's easiest to get everything done at once. We finally pick out the tux we would like to rent for the wedding and set up a day with our groomsmen to get measured and get their rentals in. Once arriving with our bridal party we were rudely greeted.. "why did you all come at once" with an annoyed tone and eye roll from the older woman. I expressed to her "this is what we were told to do??" Anyway, we get our tuxes ordered, all measured by who I assume is the second manager. Then the boys are trying on black shoes and I say to the man "oh, we need dark brown shoes, not black" The man assured me that the shoes the men were trying on were only samples and they would have dark brown shoes. We leave and wait for the tuxes to arrive. 4 days before the wedding we are starting to get very worried about the tux arrival, when we call they express to us our tuxes will be in 2 days before the event. This immediately upsets me because what if something goes wrong? And I assure you, if something can go wrong it will. My fathers (6'6") tux , and my grooms (6'4") tux BOTH did not fit, they were INCHES short!! This created so much panic for me two days before the wedding day. Meaning we had only ONE day to fix this situation as day 2 was the wedding day. The staff showed no remorse, apologies, or any sort of emotion to our dilemma. They simply stated they would reorder the tuxes and have them shipped over night.. great but at this point my faith is VERY low considering my fathers and grooms tuxes were both measured by different men. How could I trust these could be right? Not only this, but the shoes were BLACK! I expressed to the man "you said they would be dark brown" and he said to me "we don't have dark brown" WHAT. Then WHY on earth did you tell us you did the month before?!? So there was nothing they could do about this, the shoes were a patent leather black (with our navy tuxes, ew) A simple apology for all of this would have at least redeemed them some stars but these guys seem to be SO prideful they couldn't even manage to apologize- instead just take credit for fixing the mistake that they made in the first place. They require the tuxes to be back the day after the wedding (lol) or a $20 late fee for everyday they aren't back. This to me just seems like a way to up-sell the price. The window for this rental is simply too short, and too much can go wrong. I would not recommend this company for tuxedo rental to my worst enemy. This was a complete nightmare to deal with the day before my rehearsal dinner and two days before my wedding. Jos A Bank employees- learn to apologize and take responsibility for your actions as opposed to treating your clients as if they are annoying for having you fix your mistakes.

Instead I have to wear a suit, or at least slacks and a blazer and tie. Knowing that, i began shopping around -- I wanted quality, but affordable within reason, selection, but cool enough to be worn by someone who doesn't dress like their dad. I settled on Jos A. Bank. But why? 1. They have mega sales constantly. Never pay full price here, you're getting ripped off. I opted for the buy 1 at full price, get 2 free Labor Day sale. 2. Selection is amazing, tons of different colors and fabrics. 3. My brothers all said their stuff holds up. 4. The in-store customer experience was great. So much so that I went in early just to try stuff on and buy it online, where I thought the sale was taking place. When I told them that they said they'd not only honor the online sale in store, they'd honor it early. Bingo. All this considered, I left with three suits, 6 dress shirts and 3 ties for under $1000. That might seem like a lot of money, but these are good quality, good looking suits. And considering this will last me a good year or two of every day wearing, I'm a happy dude.

I have absolutely nothing but good things to say about Langs bridal . They didn't have the dress…read morestyle I wanted on the rack when I met with them, but I was able to try it on elsewhere and still brought my business back here . I had them order the gown for me because their customer service and excitement with me was unlike any of the other boutiques I shopped at. The last few weeks leading up to my wedding I had a lot of big life things happening, and not in a good way. The women here truly embraced me and helped keep the positive energy for me through every alterations visit . They TRULY made my gown my own. Im talking pulling mesh I was unsure of , alterations from stress weight loss, making sure my bow sat perfectly all of it . Every time I look at pictures of my wedding I think of this shop and these women and get sad that our time together is over but am so thankful that I found them.

I highly recommend this store if you are looking for a store that has a wide variety of wedding…read moredresses and high quality of customer service this is the store for you. As a nervous first time bride Amara the bridal consultant at the store made me feel welcome and helped me patiently navigating through different options of dresses that they had. I would say as far as pricing the dresses can range anywhere from $1000 to $5000 or more however the quality of their dresses are amazing while compared to the other stores that I have browsed through. Thank you Amara and the Lang's bridal team for helping me find the perfect dress for my upcoming wedding.

First off let me say I had the best bridal consultant. Myranda was supportive and gave lots of…read moregreat feedback. I felt comfortable and confident. Throughout the process she was patient and understanding. After 5 dresses I was torn between two! Of course I fell in love with #1 but fell even more in love with the 5th final dress I tried on. When it came to looking at the specifics I stated I've been losing weight. With 1 month and 20 days left till my wedding I was anxious with alterations etc. I would like to give the lady that does alterations a 1 star. This low rating because she was extremely pushy. She wanted to make the dress bigger but of course this freaked me out because I know by my date I'll be down another 10 pounds so then i run the risk of it being too big. ( not a risk I was willing to take so close to my wedding date ) the halter top and bust area did need alterations BUT nothing that some cups placed on and a pin couldn't fix. The manager (I regretfully didn't get her name) was great. I think she could see it on my face that I wasn't feeling it. She came over and provided some input. Made me feel a lot better about my decision and validated my feelings. All in all I had a great experience and I would shop here again if I never needed to. I do plan to return and purchase the veil and petticoat before the wedding. Best news is today I left with my dream dress and I couldn't be happier.

Little did I know I would walk out with my dream dress! I had initially picked out satin dresses to try on. They made sure not to weigh in and encouraged me alone to make a decision on a dress that made me feel beautiful. I ended up asking for Janelle's recommended since I was not sure about the dresses I picked. I tried on Janelle's pick and felt so beautiful and elegant in it. It was the dress for me and I couldn't leave it there! And it was actually cheaper and in my budget than the other dresses! I felt so happy and supported by everyone there! Thank y'all for the amazing experience I'm so glad I came in! (Sorry for the super delayed response Janel)
