When I was engaged and looking for my wedding dress I went to two other stores before Classic Weddings and I couldn't stand being pushed into trying on dresses, especially ones that I didn't like at all.
Then I remembered my oldest sister went to Classic Weddings for her dress, so I gave it a shot. First thing I told one of the women that worked there was I just wanted to look around I didn't want to try anything on that day. They were totally fine with that, and they showed me a bunch of dresses I loved it there they were very helpful and not pushy.
I really wanted to look like a classic movie star at my wedding, and they showed me so many dresses that could have worked and I tried a bunch on but nothing was really giving me that special feeling that you're supposed to have when you try on THE DRESS.
Finally, the one sales woman got the owner to try and help and I told her what I wanted. She said she thinks she knew of a dress that would be perfect for me and what I wanted but, it wouldn't arrive to the shop for a month or two. She showed me a picture it was very 1940's starlet, I loved it I just wasn't sure how I would look in it, so the owner told me she would call me when it came into the shop.
The owner called me the day that dress arrived she seemed very excited for me. I went in the next day and tried it on, it was just my size and I looked good in it too! I knew that was the dress, it was exactly what I wanted, I knew I would look like a 1940's movie star walking down the red carpet.
The only thing was the price. . .I was in college and only worked as a waitress two nights a week so money was an issue.
I went to the bridal shop and tried on that dress like 5 times debating whether or not I wanted to put it on my credit card. The 5th or 6th time I visited Classic Weddings and tried on that dress I was looking at myself in the mirror with it on and the owner came over to me and told me that only one person other than me tried that dress on in the past few months since the dress arrived and told me she's certain that was the wedding dress for me. She sold me the dress off of the rack for about half of the original price!! since it fit me perfectly I only had to pay for very minor alterations a broke college girl's dream!
I also bought my undergarment, veil and shoes there as well.
I was very pleased with all of the employees at Classic Weddings the owner, the sales women and the seamstresses were all wonderful and made me feel like a beautiful bride.
I highly recommend Classic Weddings! read more
