All I can say is WOW! Schaffer's is completely amazing and was the best experience yet. I had gone…read moreto another local bridal store before, and felt completely at home the minute I walked into Schaffer's. You are greeted immediately and taken upstairs to get a tour and have you and your loved ones look through and pick out some favorite gowns. I worked with Kimberly, and she was so attentive and thoughtful. I never felt pressured once and she was a seasoned expert. She knew exactly what to add to the gown (straps, belt) and took my feedback and what I liked and adapted throughout the appointment. I felt so supported and beautiful the ENTIRE time. The gown selection was one of the best I have seen, and they had a wide variety of sizes which I appreciated to really see how the gown will look in real life. The dresses are split up by price point, making it very easy to stay within your budget going into it. I cannot wait for my gown to come in! I love that they have in house alterations to ensure your gown looks absolutely perfect once it arrives.

I've never worn a suit and decided to try bridal connections. Small business, friendly phone staff,…read moreI was expecting it to be just what I needed. I was very wrong, as for men the only options they have are 5 suits in the entryway of the shop. The owner was the one helping me and my mother, to which we had to ignore all her sly comments throughout and making us feel dumb because what we were looking for "just isn't a thing." A cream colored dress shirt isn't a thing? Anyways.. We end up picking the suit right off a picture basically, nothing custom or changed about it, we were settling at this point. Paid, left. Still felt very unhappy, so one hour later we arrived at a different suit store, had exactly everything I wanted and more, they were astounded to hear the story about bridal connections, said they have frequently heard complaints about them. Purchased the exact suit I wanted and everything down to the shoes. Paid $60 less, and called to get a refund from bridal connections maybe 2 hours since leaving their store. Bridal connections told us NO refund, even though they haven't ordered the suit or sent the work order in yet, we still don't get a refund since we already paid for it. She cancelled the paperwork, and told me I'm out of luck bud. We are disputing the charge with our bank of course since no service was performed or received. Overall sorry for the long book I just wrote, I would HIGHLY recommend shopping at any other place , at least for suits. This is a MONEY GRAB and a SLIMEY way for a "small business" to do business. The insults we received, the terrible quality suits and small amount of options, they just want your money and to hold on to it as long as they can. Would've even loved the owner to reach out and ask me what's wrong with the purchase, no. Complete shutdown once they receive payment. Please don't waste your money and time going here, and if they insult you I would hope you speak up for yourself unlike how we didn't!

Shout out to Cassidy and Ace for an unexpected experience for a plus size beauty. Messaged online…read moreabout our last minute needs. Cassidy messaged back quickly explaining how to book an appointment but also encouraging us to just come in given the circumstance. When we walked in every crew member acknowledged us and Cassidy introduced herself and are consultant, Ace. My expectation was that they would pull out a few dresses that just might fit, however what they had in sizes up to 30 were several dresses in several colors and several styles to choose from. Although Ace was serving another customer she somehow managed to be mindful and ready to help at any moment. My granddaughter tried on several dresses in several styles and was able to even try on a couple that were too big, which is an unusual thing and totally unexpected. Ace was right there to provide feedback on each dress and help making sure it was on properly and suggestions as to modifications that would help it fit best. Each of the dresses were well made with quality material and excellent sewing. When we left the store I truly was not sure if I was more pleased with the dress or more pleased with the experience that they offered. We left with an amazing ball gown that was priced more than fairly, but a day later I have to say what was most valuable was the incredible experience from the first message received back from Cassidy, to every face acknowledging us when we walked in the door to the abundance of beautiful dresses and gowns to choose from, to being able to try on something a bit too big, and the one-on-one assistance Ace was able to provide us. I think of the experience as unexpected because I did not expect to leave the store with a dress and I did not expect the Queen for a Day experience the team provided. I have two daughters that are too old for prom, and one more grandchild that at this point I'm eagerly awaiting prom so we can return to Stacy's.
