My niece was running out of time finding a prom dress. We went to a couple of stores in Harwin…read morearea. Couldn't find anything only bridal dresses. A store owner told us about this place that was not too far. I think we first went into the wrong place there a two stores that have doors right next to each other. The first place, the girl helping wouldn't leave our side but not in a helpful way. The place was to cramped and not enough room to move around. We saw a dress we liked and she gave us a huge discount but the price was still high. The shop girl first said we could order it but then came back and said it was sold out. We also weren't allowed to take pictures. I don't know why, we had seen so many dresses it gets confusing with slit, no slit, backless, halter, short and long dresses. We felt rushed and didn't see a lot of variety of prom dresses. FN Formals We decided to pass and my nieces size was sold out. We literally went next door and the first thing we noticed is all the dresses they have hanging on the wall with a number. You see a dress you like, get the number, locate on the numbered racks and find your size. It's all self serve. If you don't find your size they will help you find it. We were allowed to try on as many as we wanted. The girls working there were so helpful and not pushy. We didn't feel rushed and were allowed to take pictures. We actually had fun seeing everyone come out in their dresses. It was a good experience. They have two mirrors in the fitting room and in front of store. My niece found what she was looking for and the price was perfect $130. I don't remember what the other dresses were going for we tried on. We went during the week on Monday and it wasn't that busy. I'm sure it gets crazy on the weekends. I think they close at 6:30pm but call to confirm but we got there around 4 or 4:30. They had wedding dresses there too that are beautiful. For a young bride on a budget. Some tips. Bring a pair of heels to get an idea of what the dress will look with heels. If you plan on wearing certain under garments or stockings bring or come with it on. Some of the dresses have lots of sequins and can snag and get caught on things. Also some dresses have spaghetti straps, halter or strapless. You want to have the right bra on to see how it will look with the dress. All sales are final. Try to go during the week if you can to be in and out of the fitting room. I think they have 6 or 8 fitting rooms but with so many dresses to try on I can see how you could have to wait for a fitting room. During the weekend they could do things differently to try on dresses and get ppl in and out of the fitting room. Again I was there on a Monday around 4pm. My niece is 18 and this dress is for her high school prom. If you don't see the dresses on the wall with a number to locate yourself on the racks, you are at the wrong store.

They will help you find a dress in the color you want and also help you when trying them on. They take the dresses off the hangers and rehang when you are done. This sounds strange but these dresses are long, heavy and very time consuming when doing this yourself. This also helps keep the dress in nice shape. We were not able to find a dress here but maybe next time! The staff are very so helpful. Tons to choose from.

My stylist Deanna was amazing. What gave this 1 star is my dress that was ordered online and…read moreshipped to the store. THE DRESS THEY GAVE ME IS A SAMPLE. Online, it's not "As-Is" like all the sample sales are labeled. I did not pay that much for a SAMPLE wedding dress. I'm obviously upset. It was clear that the dress is a sample because it was so dirty! I can't believe this. The seamstress reassured me that it would be spot cleaned after I paid over $500 for the alterations. But... why did they send me a SAMPLE DRESS when my purchase was for a brand new dress? This is such a scam! Update: Spoke with manager and they will find if there is a new dress available. Update 2: they weren't able to find a dress in better condition so they offered to dry clean it. The dry cleaning did remove a lot of the dirt but I think that procedure should've been built into the return process of the dress to prevent the extra time it has cost everyone.

Initially, my experience with purchasing my wedding dress at David's bridal was fantastic. I found…read morean affordable dress and had a great experience however that all changed in September when I began my alteration nightmare September 15 I went in for a first fitting and was told that it would take an additional fitting to alter my dress The second fitting, I was told that it would take one more and my dress would be ready for my November wedding and that's where it got a little crazy The dress was not ready when promised and with three days before my wedding, I had to find a new Seamstress to correct alteration mistakes and complete the dress. Be cautious when purchasing your dress to ensure that it fits properly or find a seamstress outside of David bridal alterations save yourself the heartache and stress.

I'm very pleased with this store. They have a huge selection of dresses & accessories for children…read moreat very reasonable prices. I was looking for a flower girl dress for my daughter who is 5 years old. This place has a wonderful selection. The ladies were very friendly & helped me with everything. We first looked at David's Bridal & the dresses were bland & overpriced for what your were getting. I met the owner & he was very friendly & very helpful. I ended up purchasing her a dress ($49) & a petticoat to make the dress wider. My daughter loved her dress & the bride was extremely pleased herself. This place is a one stop shop for your bridal needs (flower girl dresses). If you need a flower girl or hostess dress, or looking for dresses for the fifteens, this is the place. I will definitely be back to expand my daughter's hair bow collections.

Majority of this store is for kids. There is a shoe area, jewelry area, little girl veils, tuxedo…read moresection and little girls section (majority of the store). The dresses are very pretty. I saw some dresses I had seen at a bridal boutique for $70 for a flower girl and here it was $49. They had a huge selection for little girl dresses. And they had ALL sizes for the same dress. I bought my son a tuxedo for $35. They also sell vests of all colors for $21. Staff is very helpful. The reason for 4 stars is because the sales lady asked if I needed help and what I was looking for. I told her I was looking around and if I needed help I would definitely ask her. But she kept coming back showing me dresses that I really didn't like and I felt bad telling her I didn't like them. She kept following me around the store and I would've liked her to just step back and let me look without any pressure. And when I got a dress she took it away from me and took it to the changing area. When I approached the area she took it off the hanger to try on, which is fine BUT when I asked her how much the dress was again she got another hanger that was not the one my dress was hanging on and gave me the price of $89 when the dress was $59 (the prices are marked on the hanger). So be very careful when you pull a dress, look at the price before they take it from you to hold. Cause they might change hangers and give you a higher price than what it originally was. I did not take the dress and after I told her it was too expensive she did try to cut me a deal but I still didn't take it. There were other people there negotiating prices and it sounded like the staff was giving them discounts. So you might want to ask for a deal. If you have an event coming up, definitely come here to look around the prices are affordable. And the dresses are of good quality!

We ordered custom dress from here which we were told would take 2 months would be ready July 15…read moredidn't get a call. Had to call them and was still not here on shipment. Another issue we had was we were told by the owner and helper that the owner does not deal with customers like us. Which does not make sense if we are paying a price and expecting to receive a dress that is wearable. The dress cost $850 with tax. Once the dress was here the sizing was not correct. Left it to be altered based on the size and even the second time the issue was not fixed. The owner was not willing to deal with us and would leave us to deal with someone who is her helper and helps with the tailoring. Was lied to about shipping dates and was also talked to rudely even when we paid full price. We ordered the dress to wear for my wedding and unfortunately the fitting and look didn't meet our expectations and felt like a waste.

Had an excellent experience here searching for my mom's mother of the bride dress for my big day!…read moreThough the store didn't have the dresses my mom had found online which was disappointing, there was a large selection of formal dresses to choose from, and the staff was so on top of it with finding dresses that were similar to what she was looking for. They were extremely knowledgeable about the inventory and brands and did all the hard work for us. The staff helped my mom change, they gave her honest feedback and hyped her up when the dress looked good on her. They set the scene and helped her envision herself in the dress on wedding day by playing with different lighting options. We found a stunning dress for about $500. I saw dresses ranging from $250-$900. I think that some of the dresses there were worth the price, but others look super cheap and are falling apart. But the staff is honest enough to tell you which dresses those are. I will consider this location for my formal wear needs going forward! The only feedback I have is that when it comes to dresses that they have online or in their catalog. Let's say you want to order a dress in a color or size they don't have in the store. Once you order it, you can't return or exchange the dress. That's unsettling to me because depending on the color or the stretch of a dress, it may look completely different in person. I understand final sale, but I think there's value in allowing exchanges for store credit.

Apparently this place doesn't know how to manage time. Our company party showed up on time...only to wait 30 minutes because our "stylist" was with another party. Once we finally got "our turn" we were rushed-because we had another appointment this afternoon. The place is loud-other customers were screaming with excitement (I get it...but...). Unprofessional is the best description. If you are looking to wait-(even though you had an appointment at a certain time) don't mind subpar dresses (one of the options had a rip in it) and spending thousands on a dress...this is your place. If you want a more professional experience where the boutique actually listens to your choices go somewhere else. This isn't the place for you...it's seriously a joke. They did offer a discount..however-money wasn't the issue...I can make more money...I can't get the time back...no

Wow!!! Never in my life did I think I could have a custom wedding dress made, much less afford it…read more I posted in a wedding group on FB that I had just gotten engaged, and Yani reached out to me and offered her services. Her quote sounded too good to be true, but I went and met with her and seen some of the other dresses that she had made. They were beautiful so and her prices were very reasonable. So, I decided to give it a shot. I must admit it sounded wayyy too good to be true. She also told us that she could make my fiancé's suit. At that very 1st visit she took our measurements. We left not knowing exactly we were going to get, even kind of nervous. But hopeful at the same time. She was very quick, and we went in for our 1st fitting. My fiancé's jacket and vest looked great, and fit him just about perfectly at the 1st fitting. I must admit I wasn't happy with my dress at all... here's where I went into freak out mode. Yani pretty much told me to trust the process. Since I had never had a custom dress made... i did not trust the process at all. When I came back for the next fitting, I can tell you that all my stress was for nothing. The dress was almost perfect. I was like... YES! This is so much better. By my last fitting the dress was perfect. Absolutely perfect! This past weekend was our wedding. I got so many complements on my dress. It fit perfectly. You can tell it was made just for me. I am very short and it didn't drag the ground at all. At the end of the night, I didn't even want to take it off. I want to wear it again. I'm said that it was just for that occasion. Someone give me some ideas on how and when I can wear this beautiful dress again. LOL
