Wanted to share my experience today at Park Avenue Bridal in Cedar Grove, NJ - for brides who are looking for where to find their dream wedding gown, there aren't enough words to explain how great my experience was!

She knew exactly what I was looking for and pulled dresses that embodied my vision perfectly. The level of experience, knowledge, professionalism & just overall good vibes Kathy brought is something I will never forget She made my entire wedding dress shopping experience perfect from beginning to end, I am immensely grateful to Kathy and Park Avenue Bridal! read more

Cathy was great! She made the whole process easy & fun. Really enjoyed my appointment and said yes to the dress!

When I ordered my dress from Patty, I SPECIFICALLY asked in front of 4 of my friends and family about the sleeves and if the fit and size of the sleeve would change if the dress I ordered was a different size. She assured me no. The sleeves and the bust/neckline were what I loved about the dress in the first place so it was extremely important to me that it looked that way. When I tried on my dress for the first time, I could hardly get the sleeves on and over my shoulder they were so tight (no I did not gain weight and am a size 0/2). When I tried the sample on (which was really not much bigger than me and was NOT clipped), the sleeves were large, roomy, and almost bell-shaped. Not only were the sleeves on my dress cutting off my circulation (not exaggerating), the bust was shaped very different as a band that went straight across my chest, than the sample which was a cowl neck. Upon pointing this out to a blonde attendant, she brought over a seamstress and the manager, Andrea. After calmly explaining to all of them that I specifically asked about this at the time of ordering and there was nothing in my contract or order about the fit of the sleeves, Andrea proceeded to tell me that I was wrong because it would look like I "didn't tailor the dress if it was the way I wanted". I very much disagree with this because I wanted a poofy sleeve. They told me I could take the fabric off the hem and add it to the sleeve and have an extra seam for $200 OR order a custom sleeve for $800 and the fabric wouldn't match (both in addition to the $600 for alterations). I left the store agreeing I could fix it in alterations. A few days later I called Park Ave to see if I could move my alterations appointment so we had enough time to fix it. Bernadette informed me that they had ordered new fabric from the designer and were going to custom make me a brand new sleeve. She assured me I had nothing to worry about anymore and that they were going to make it absolutely perfect, just the way I had ordered the dress. I was over the moon. I thanked her profusely and Bernadette told me to call back the next day to book my new alterations appointment after she figured out when the new fabric would be delivered. I called back the next day and Andrea got on the phone and told me that I was mistaken and they did not agree to the new fabric. After I reiterated my conversation with Bernadette, Andrea said "now you listen to me, forget what Patty and Bernadette told you". At this point, I explained to her that I was extremely frustrated because this was the SECOND time they had told me something that wasn't true. She got very rude very quickly and went on to gaslight me for 10 minutes about how I was wrong. After much deliberation she eventually agreed to order the fabric on the condition that I had to take my dress elsewhere for alterations because she has been "doing this for 25 years" and "does not need my business". This was AFTER I already paid for them. Bernadette ended up allowing me to keep my alterations in house when I went in for my fitting. Fast forward to my wedding day and I take my dress out of the bag to steam and it had a significant dirt stain on the back shoulder. I was immediately frantic and call Park Ave to see if the dress was cleaned before I left and they said it was "pressed". I let them know that I was incredibly disappointed but this was on par with the rest of my experience there and Gary proceeded to tell me that it was my fault that I nor my MIL saw it when I had my final fitting. Mind you, it was on the BACK of my shoulder so there's no way that we would've seen it. He offered me no solution to fix it and had to scramble to clean it as best I could on my wedding day which made me late for photos. Once I was dressed, I went to pick up my skirt to leave and noticed that the under lining of my dress was absolutely FILTHY. It was clearly not new or cleaned fabric and now looking back at the photo my cups are dirty too. I can't help but think that this was all intentional after my first fiasco with my sleeves. To top it off, I also reached out to the designer directly and asked for help but since Park Ave is a private shop, they advised me that I have to deal directly with the store. They also let me know that an arm measurement could have been submitted, when Andrea deliberately told me that this was my problem and lied to my face saying the designer does not take arm measurements. Regardless of how many lies I was told and how much of a rollercoaster I have been on, I still think it's absurd to charge a "flat fee" for alterations and tell customers at point of purchase that the fee does not change no matter how much or how little you need done, and then try and charge customers for any additional work outside of a hem. They delete bad reviews on other sites!!! DO NOT GO HERE IT IS NOT WORTH IT read more

Kathy from Park Avenue Bridal is the best!! She made my dress shopping experience so fun and she was so patient with me.

Everyone in the store was so friendly and amazing from start to finish, highly recommend if you want your wedding dress process to be stress free and perfect from start to finish.

10/10 experience. Cara was incredible, so helpful and led me to my dream dress (and veil). The entire staff was accommodating and friendly. I'd recommend everyone get their wedding dress and accessories here! So glad I chose Park Avenue Bridals. read more

My bridal stylist, Kathy, was beyond amazing! I definitely felt stressed since I had no idea what kind of bridal dress I wanted and I showed her over 20 photos of dress details that I loved. However, Kathy made me feel calm and confident in my choice. She knows EVERYTHING regarding material, cut, designers and shapes of all types of dresses. She was so knowledgeable, and caring. Her joy and compassion was genuine from the start! If you go to a Park Avenue Bridals, you won't be disappointed! The shop has an eclectic assortment of dresses from multiple designers. I definitely would recommend requesting Kathy, if you can. She knows her stuff and she truly wants you to feel beautiful and confident on your special day. Thank you so much Kathy, I appreciate all of you help and I can't thank you enough! read more

Kathy at Park Ave Bridals is the best!! Both of my daughters had the pleasure of working with her this year. First was Kristen on 4/29/23 and this weekend was Lisa on 10/7/23. Both daughters got the dress of their dreams because Kathy takes her time to listen and ask lots of questions to truly understand exactly what they were looking for. I can't say enough about the wonderful experience we had with Kathy and Andrea too! Love these ladies and love Park Avenue Bridals. Can't wait to see them both at the fittings next year! read more

Found my dress here and the stylist was very helpful! Great atmosphere. My family and I got to look through the dresses which I liked! 10/10 would recommend for anyone, lots of dress selections too! read more

I set up an appointment and when I arrived we got to work with the consultant, Kathy Ingraham-Lemley away. I spoke to the her about what I was looking for and for the first round she picked out some dresses. When I expressed doubt she was good about moving in to another (some people may not like this but I did as I know I can be indecisive and so if I have a doubt about something, I probably should not be seriously considering it). We went in to the next round of picking dresses which I mostly did. I found a dress I really loved but as I was unaccompanied by mom and sister (due to COViD) and was not able to get them via facetime for their opinion, I made it clear to her that I would not be purchasing that dress without any family feedback. (This is the main reason they didn't get 5 stars). They had a very large selection and I would recommend it especially if you dont have a clear sense of what style dress you'd like and therefore need more variety. read more

I had such a positive experience this past weekend wedding dress shopping! Bernadette Silvia was assigned to assist me and truly made this huge life event so special, smooth and easy. I was nervous going into it, but she eased me as soon as she started showing me dresses she thought I'd like. I showed her pictures and gave her inspiration of what I wanted and the first dress she pulled was the one I ultimately wound up with! Everyone on staff who we interacted with was lovely, the salon had a ton of options, and everything that Bernadette pulled was in my price range - she didn't try to sway me to go above or put pressure on me in any way. I truly loved this experience and wish I could do it again next weekend! I absolutely recommend Park Avenue Bridal if you are in need of a wedding dress. read more

I had a great experience at Park Ave! My consultant, Kathy, was amazing. She listened to what I wanted and pulled dresses that I liked and even took me out of my comfort zone to try on dresses I never even considered. I like how they allow you to go through the racks and don't limit how many dresses you try on. When it came to alterations, Maria was incredible. The dress fit perfectly and she knew exactly what to do to make the dress look its best. The rest of the staff was outstanding as well, even going as far as to get on the phone with designers to create a custom gown for my grandmother! read more

OH! MY! GOODNESS! I can not say enough good things about Park Avenue Bridal! My mother and my bridesmaids went for the first time on Monday (my wedding is in a bit under a year). We were brought in by Kathy who immediately made us feel sooooo comfortable! She was AMAZING! I was so nervous about being able to find my dream wedding dress and Kathy make it so easy. I tried on so many dresses, each more beautiful than the next and Kathy made the process run seamlessly! The dress I ended up choosing happened to be the first dress I picked out and the last one I tried on. I was STUNNING....and comfortable! I am so happy we went to Park Avenue Bridal! read more

I said yes to the dress at Park Avenue Bridal it started with a phone call. I had the day off from work and wanted to book several bridal appointments with my mom for my day off. Gary took my call and managed to squeeze me into the schedule. He was so helpful over the phone and accommodated my limited availability! Park Avenue was our first appointment of that day. Previously, I had tried wedding gowns on at David's Bridal and at Kleinfeld's in NYC, with no intention to purchase / just to get ideas. This time was different; I knew in my bones that this day would be the day that I would find my dream gown! Once we arrived, I was shaking with excitement. The salon is spacious, updated and filled with natural lighting and beautiful bridal gowns. Kathy was my stylist and we hit it off immediately. I told her my vision and she listened She delivered big time (no photos right now, my wedding is in 2024) - she pulled the gown that would wind up being THE DRESS. My mom and I were also able to browse through all of the gowns in the salon. It was the first one I tried on and it checked all of my boxes and more. I cried and so did my mom! Kathy also found the perfect veil and head piece for my gown, creating the ultimate bridal look. I felt like a Princess. I actually almost said no to my gown, because I had another appointment scheduled after Park Ave. Kathy and my mom encouraged me to cancel it and I did, and it was the best choice I've ever made. I rang the bell and I cried the happiest of happy tears I can't wait to continue to tell you all about my experience with Park Avenue, as they will also be altering my wedding gown. This place is just incredible and a "one-stop-shop" for all of your bridal needs. They even have a STUNNING selection of Mother of the Bride gowns.

I worked with Kathy at Park Avenue, which was my final stop on the great wedding dress hunt, and she is a master of her craft. The whole staff are very organized and have an extensive selection of not only wedding dresses, but also bridesmaid dresses and mother of the bride dresses (and provide a nice little discount too). The seamstresses doing alterations were super thorough and made me feel very comfortable. My only challenge with Park Avenue was that they were not always particularly communicative with me about my dress (I had to take the initiative to do follow-up) and their hours were a little prohibitive for an out-of-state bride and bridal party. Admittedly, I would also think that given that my wedding dress, 7 bridesmaid dresses, and mother of the bride dress were ALL purchased at Park Avenue, they would be a little more supportive and communicative of me (I rarely heard from them at all, as though they were always too busy to talk to me), as well as more likely to share my photos on social media. I often felt ignored, even when I would "check in" on Facebook, Instagram, etc. Generally, a good vendor makes you feel like a "special sparkly" bride (even when it's cheesy or hokey), and I didn't really get that TLC from Park Avenue. read more

This was my best experience. As we know dress shopping could be hectic if you don't find the "One" But Park Avenue made this experience the best. Kathy was an amazing person she asked me few questions on the kind of dress I was looking for and she gave me the best options. She knew what I would like and what I wouldn't. Kathy was very mindful as well as understanding, she made this experience amazing and easy, with only 7 dresses and I shortlisted my "Wedding Dress" Thank you Kathy for making this an amazing experience read more

I just visited Park Ave Bridal and it was an amazing experience. My consultant was Kathy. She was the sweetest lady. She really took the time to understand what I was looking for and what would fit my curvy body and flatter me. After trying on several dresses I asked Kathy to go out and pick a dress that she thought would encompass everything that we spoke about into one dress. Well she did! She picked out the most amazing, romantic dress I could ever asked for. She always focused on what I wanted and she just knew! She is very knowledgeable in the bridal dress field. Ask for Kathy when you go, I promise you won't be disappointed. Thank you to Kathy and Park Avenue Bridal. read more

I originally went there because they are close to my house. My first appointment was to look at bridesmaids dresses. At the end of my girls trying on different dresses it was like the girl was annoyed when I was asking questions about the different dresses and just wasn't helpful in general. I then went back to try on wedding dresses in which I had to give my credit card information for the appointment incase I didn't show up and was told that I only had a ten minute window if I was late. I was there ten minutes early and still had to wait thirty minutes past my original appointment time. This bothered me as they made sure they would be compensated if their time was wasted but it was okay to waste my time. Appointment times were also said to be limited to an hour so it feels rushed. The consultants also ask you something like "is this the dress" for every dress and to compare it to the last dress you had on. I felt overwhelmed as there were things I may or may not have liked and then asking to compare to your first dress when you're in your sixth dress is hard. read more

Bernadette was absolutely amazing, very attentive, pleasant and listened to concerns. However, unfortunately we had a family situation that plans changed and I had to cancel dress I ordered within 5 days of ordering 3 business days. Originally was told dress will be in 2/3 weeks before wedding. Called spoke to Gary who stated dress already shipped from CA. And there was nothing he could do to cancel, stated dress was in stock that's why it shipped so early. Anyway, he was not helpful at all, kept stating nothing he could do. I'm in retail and customer service, therefore, I know there is always something you can do, regardless of "policy" your goal should be to go above and beyond to make your customer happy, we pay your salary. And I'm a return customer buying dress there previously. Nonetheless, I have to take $700 dress, that I have no use for. Horrible!! read more

As a midsize bride I was very nervous about dress shopping but that all went away once i got to Park Avenue Bridal. It was my first time going wedding dress shopping, I knew somethings and liked and some things I didnt but I did not have a "must try" dress. I met with Kathy (who was absolutely amazing!) and she asked me about pictures of dresses I had in mind. I showed her a few and then we discussed my budget. Then we walked around the sales floor. She showed me some options and she allowed myself and family to walk around and pick dresses as well. As we went through the dresses on the floor she asked me what I liked and did not like about them and also discussed whether or not in was in my budget. Then we got to the fitting room and Kathy was just amazing. I felt super comfortable and she put me in the first dress and OMG did she pick an amazing first dress to try on. I came out and my mom, sister, and grandma were in awe! Amazing. We tried on a few other styles and ultimately found a dress that I love just as much as the first one. I never felt uncomfortable and Kathy made sure I was happy with the dress I chose. She listened and asked all the right questions to help me figure out which dress I wanted. I'm typically an indecisive person and was definitely not expecting to say yes to a dress my first time shopping but I did. I think Kathy helped with that, I have no regrets and cant wait for my dress to come in and start fittings. She also helped me narrow down the type of veil I wanted and made sure it went with my style and the dress. Her suggestions were just amazing! Overall, I highly recommend bridal dress shopping here. Everyone, especially Kathy, was nothing short of amazing and the amount of dresses in various styles and designs was outstanding. read more
