    Bridal suite

    Great selection of dresses for plus size queens! This was my third bridal store I went to to try on dresses and I was not feeling optimistic but boy am I glad I went! They had a huge variety of designs and fits and not one dress I wanted to try on was out of my size! That's a huge plus! Dresses are customized-able so if there's something you don't like they often can remove it and alter to your dream dress Their dressing rooms and area for guests are so comfortable and cute , they truly made it a great experience, I had Carmen as our sales rep and she was AMAZING! She heard all my needs and brought dresses to match them perfectly She helped this experience so much and I truly appreciate her, They told me about all costs and time frames right in the beginning so there was no surprises. I did find just one dress I found TWO! I never thought I'd be stuck between options as a curvy bride I thought I would have to settle but NOPE these guys have beautiful dresses for you! 10/10 recommend giving them a try

    Loved this place! The customer service is amazing and so is the collection of dresses in stock in MY size. Carmen was my stylist and was absolutely amazing. It was my first time so she allowed me to try on sooo many! I didn't want to make a decision just from my first shop. My only concern was that their prices are a lot more than other stores with the same dresses. Also the alterations are more expensive than other bridal shops. I ended up with a dress from the 2nd shop I visited.

    Absolutely loved my experience at Brides by Young! I have been following them on Instagram for about two years & so excited they were opening a NJ location! I love how interactive they are on social media-part of why I started following them! I work two jobs and they were very accommodating helping me change my appointment 4 times. The location is ideal-right on 17 in Rochelle Park. The space is absolutely stunning. Clean, spacious, gorgeous, comfortable and relaxing setting. The music matches the mood-soft singable songs about falling in love. The workers are amazing!! I came in alone today & was assisted by stylist Novie. She picked a great selection of dresses based off our conversation about me and my wedding and knocked it out the park! Absolutely stunning dresses all that fit me perfectly. The selection of dresses is extensive! The most I have ever seen in a bridal shop. The best part was I felt beautiful and comfortable the entire time. The staff was wonderful and treated me as if we were life long friends. I am looking forward to returning with my friend & sister for them to see the stunning dress I purchased. Special shout out Novie, Young, Kim & Sarah!! Thank you for such an enjoyable experience!!

    The sleeves were hacked off! They used to have gorgeous buttons and a cuff!

    just nowNEW I will start this off by saying I had a wonderful time shopping for a gown here and I had the pleasure of working with Carmen. She was nothing short of excellent. She made the experience fun and exciting and helped me find the gown of my dreams, or so I thought. She deserves 5 stars however the store does not and that is where my amazing experience with Brides by Young NJ ends. I live an hour and a half away. My dress shopping appointment was on a Saturday. Fast forward six months later, I was informed that my dress was ready to be picked up; it was at that point in time that I was told I could not come in on a Saturday. I work full time so I had to take time off from work to pick up my dress. It was also then that I learned no alterations could be done on weekends. It was disappointing that this store was not willing to try and accommodate me for a weekend pickup/alterations. After much thought and consideration, I chose to have Brides By Young do the alterations on my dress (because I thought it would be perfect.) I was told the alterations would start at $850. As if this is not excessive enough, during my fitting appointment, I was informed this particular dress would be a minimum of $1,000. No one told me about that when I was trying it on originally. Nevertheless, I paid and finalized everything with the gown. Unfortunately, it did not turn out the way I hoped and I am not looking forward to wearing it. The sleeves actually look like they were cut by a child. It seems like once they completed the sale and took my money, they were no longer interested in assisting me as a customer. I advise out of state brides to make sure they have the time (and money) to be able to come back during the week only and expect to be informed of monetary increases while you're there. As I said initially, I was very pleased with my gown shopping experience with Carmen at Brides by Young NJ. Now I am left with buyer's remorse and I am disappointed with the gown that I am supposed to be in love with.

    Last weekend I went wedding gown shopping with my mom, sister, cousin, and bestie in New Jersey and New York. As a plus size bride, I did some research to make sure the shops I went to had sample sizes that would fit my body... especially after I went to one shop closer to home where the woman told me to put the gown up to my body to get an idea of how it looked . We went to The Curvy Bride, Kleinfeld, and Brides by Young. Every single shopping consultant was wonderful, but Delores at Brides by Young... she was just special. She asked me what I wanted, how much I wanted to spend, and made sure she got my feelings first before considering those of my bridal team. We walked the floor and she showed me some ideas and then asked me to trust her. Well, I'm glad I did because the first dress she brought me was the one I ended up picking in the end. When we tried my final selection on once more Delores got me a bouquet and prepared a veil she thought would compliment my gown nicely. I was shocked by how beautiful it all looked. I easily tried on 50 gowns in total between Friday and Saturday before finding MY gown at Brides by Young. Before that one, there were a bunch that I liked and some that I loved... but MY gown- she made me cry tears of happiness that I never thought I would feel when seeing myself in a wedding gown. Delores was amazing, attentive, supportive, and became a part of team bride instantly. Even since I selected my gown, I have called to ask questions and she has been there 100%. During our last call I told her she can't leave Brides by Young until after my wedding. Lol. Wonderful experience from start to finish!!!

    Endless options!!! This is not even a fourth of their options. It's essentially a warehouse sized bridal shop!!!

    I am having trouble finding the words to describe what an INCREDIBLE experience I had here. I went to multiple boutiques prior to coming to Brides By Young & all I have to say is - RUN, don't walk, to Brides By Young. Everyone who works there was amazing - from the front desk staff, to our incredible stylist, Alyson. I've said it once and I'll say it again - Alyson, whatever they're paying you - it is NOT ENOUGH. YOU ARE AMAZING!!! Alyson made me feel sooo confident, comfortable & EXCITED! She knew EXACTLY what I wanted and gave me multiple options to try on. I am a street size 12 and had the best experience here....plenty of dresses to try on that actually fit me vs being stuffed into a dress 2 sizes too small because it's all they had. Thank you SO much Alyson!!! I will be recommending ALL my friends who's are future brides to you.

    From the very first phone call, I knew this was the place I needed to go to find my dream dress. Other places I called sounded rude or made me feel like I was bothering them, however Brides By Young was the complete opposite, the happiness and positive energy I was able to feel just through the phone. They told me they only cater to plus size brides and have the largest selection out of any other store I would come across. I made an appointment with them last month and went with my FMIL and 2 of my MOHs. From the moment we walked in, the staff made me feel like a princess. Alyson was in charge of my session and she was an absolute superstar. Being a plus size bride I never thought I could feel this comfortable and she put me at complete ease throughout the entire experience. My mother was not able to go due to covid (she lives in SC) so they brought out a device which they placed the cell phone on so she can see the entire experience with us. I gave Alyson the breakdown of the kind of dresses I was interested in and did an amazing job pulling out all the dresses that fit my taste and the style I was going for. Eventually I said yes to a gorgeous dress and I couldn't be happier! She also pulled a beautiful veil to match with my dress and I just felt absolutely amazing. At the end of the experience they gave me a bottle of champagne since we couldn't drink in the store due to covid which was very sweet. This place is second to none, I honestly can not stop talking how fantastic this place is. If there are any plus size brides that are wondering where to go, this place is it!!!!

    Had the most amazing experiece at Brides by Young. Once I got enaged I knew right away I wanted to go to them. For years I would see the beautiful dresses online. Once I arrived to the shop, I was asked what I wanted to try on that day. I told them I want a train for days and no simple dress please. &&& boy did they deliver! They put me in the second dress and I simply fell in love. I tried on other dresses but they knew I was in love with that dress. I didn't want to say yes to the dress beause my mom wasn't there. So I came back and again fell in love with the dress and I finally said YASSS to the dress. The ladies at young were simply amazing. They knew what I wanted and made me feel comfortable trying on wedding dresses. As a plus size gal, it is hard to find a dress that fits and makes you feel beautiful. I truly thought I would hate dress shopping because of my size. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Brides by Young for helping me find my dream dress. I was also able to get my dress perserved with them as other companies were not able to preserve such a large dress. Now my little one can use my wedding dress in the future. TY!!!

When I got home I realized just how much I loved the sweater and regretted not having purchased the same one in multiple colors.

I called Customer Care at GUESS to see if they could help me acquire additional sweaters...even sent them a photo of what I was seeking...all of this to no avail. Yesterday I telephoned the GUESS store at Garden State Plaza. I spoke to a young person there by the name of Kelsey (hope I have the correct spelling.) Together we were able to find the style number of said sweater.

After waiting 45 minutes on hold with them, I confirmed my name , contact info and the order number, and called from the phone number on the package, but they refused to deliver. (I gave them the correct unit number, or gave them the option of leaving it inside of a locked gate at that address they had access to, but they refused). I contacted MM Lafleur via email hoping they could make it right, but they basically shrugged their shoulders and said 'we've processed your refund, you should have your money back in 7-10 days.' They claimed that Fedex said I refused the package, which couldn't be farther from the truth. I'm going to be working all weekend and don't have the time to go on a shopping trip. I would happily go to a Fedex location to pick it up, happily arrange to be outside the front address when it's delivered. Insult to injury, they said -- 'please update your address so this doesn't happen with future orders.' Sometimes people make mistakes with addresses, I've never had a Company refuse to contact the carrier to make an update. Just laziness with a side of "not my problem" attitude. It didn't seem like MM's customer service bothered to read my email and wasn't interested in engaging. (Maybe they're using AI instead of employees, who knows). Maybe their reps are paid based on how quickly they "resolve" cases. I know I shouldn't be shocked by crappy customer service, but I've had better experiences with Spirit Airlines.

She built genuine rapport, remembered people, and created an environment that made you actually want to come back. Because of her, I found myself shopping in the store at least three times a week. Jennifer, along with Jacky, made every visit enjoyable. Their energy, attentiveness, and care set them apart in a way that's hard to find. They didn't just work there they elevated the entire shopping experience. Which is why it's so frustrating and disappointing that neither of them seem to be there anymore. The turnover at this location feels constant every time I walk in, there are new faces, and the atmosphere has completely changed. It no longer feels welcoming, and honestly, it makes me not want to shop at the Paramus location at all. For customers like me who spend a significant amount of money and time in this store, the experience matters just as much as the products. Employees like Jennifer and Jacky are rare, and it's hard to understand why a company wouldn't do everything possible to retain people who clearly care about their work and their customers. I truly hope management takes this feedback seriously. Bringing back employees like Jennifer and Jacky or at the very least, prioritizing staff who bring that same level of warmth and professionalism would make a huge difference.
