I've had a fantastic experience working with Bee Jee's in getting ready for my wedding. The dresses are beautiful and high quality, and the prices are great. When looking for my engagement dress and wedding outfits, I went into multiple stores and kept coming up short--in most cases, the designs were gaudy and unflattering. Of the few stores that offered beautiful, great quality designs, some had very unreasonable prices. By contrast, Bee Jee's had a wider selection at excellent prices. I bought my engagement dress there, which was gorgeous--everybody at the party and who saw pictures gushed about how amazing it looked. Best of all, my fiance loved it, and still remarks about how nice it was from time to time. Kiran and her team were very detail-oriented in working with me to alter it and make adjustments until it looked beautiful. It's obvious that they are very well-versed in clothes, sewing, material, and styling. When they undertook the first round of alterations, they knew before I even tried it on that they would have to adjust some of the intricate work in one area because of how the fabric falls--when I tried on the dress, they went looking to see and mark where they would have to make that adjustment. At other stores, I've had to point out those issues after actually trying on the dress, but here, they already knew that that change would be needed, and sprung into action once I wore the outfit. I had an even better experience when buying my mehndi dress from them. I had a two-color combination in mind, but would've been happy to find anything nice. I looked up and down Devon trying to find something special, but kept having no luck. When I walked into Bee Jee's to pick up my finalized engagement dress, I saw a new outfit on the mannequin--the rhinestones sparkled like diamonds, and the intricate detailed work was fitting for a bride. And, it was exactly the color combination that I'd been hoping for. I even found matching bangles for both dresses. The best part of the outfit was what Kiran did with the sleeves that she added. Because the outfit featured a combination of some unique materials, everyone knew it would be tricky to find the right fabric in a matching color for the sleeves. I was lucky that Kiran was on the job, because she procured it. What really impressed me, though, was how genuinely ecstatic she was at how fortunate we were in finding the material--it showed me that she really loves her work, is a perfectionist, and truly cares about putting together a beautiful product for her customers. But her dedication to making the outfit come together perfectly didn't stop there. She first took the same kind of material that was used in other parts of the dress and cut out the rhinestones and other work--she did this to put the exact same work on the sleeves that the rest of the dress had. Then, when they had a slow day at the shop because of a snowstorm, she took advantage of the extra time and put in the rhinestones and other work, herself, instead of sending it out to a tailor. When the velvet sleeves made it difficult for the rhinestones to stick, she kept brainstorming, trying to find a way to get them to stay on. She ultimately expended much time and energy burning and sewing the work into the fabric. I saw the dress midway through the process, and was concerned about how the velvet material and color would look with the rest of the dress, but when I saw the final product, I realized what an artist Kiran is, and how well she knows her craft. The sleeves perfectly complemented the rest of the dress, particularly the work in the lehnga. It was a very difficult project that others might have given up on. When I tried on the final product, both my future mother-in-law and parents were blown away by how nice it looked. Not only that, Kiran was extremely resourceful with other items for my wedding--things that might seem small or unconventional, but that resolved some major wedding preparation issues for me. I was going to wear a jewelry set that I had from before with the mehndi dress, because it matched perfectly. Unfortunately, the set did not have a tikka. My mom had a tikka, separately, but the interior stones were pink, whereas my outfit had maroon in it. Kiran saw the tikka and brought out some jewelry paint--she painstakingly painted over the stones, until they gleamed brilliantly and matched my dress perfectly. Even though she typically charges for that service, she was happy to do it for free; she even said that after the wedding, I should bring the tikka back so that she can remove the paint and restore it to its original design. She also went through non-desi dress shirts and pants that I had brought in from a department store, and helped me put together a great outfit for my fiance that would match my mehndi dress. I still have more outfits to buy for my wedding, and will be a regular at Bee Jee's for those and beyond. read more
