I knew even before shopping at Modern Dress that my experience would be 10/10 & it most definitely…read morewas. I really didn't think I would say yes to the dress my first time shopping but I did! My experience was extra special for a few reasons- both Ashlee & Sage were able to help me find the perfect dress & both of them will be standing by my side when I say I do! And on top of that, I am marrying Sage's brother. I truly can't imagining saying yes to the dress any other way. Modern Dress has a wide variety & selection of dresses. I tried on so many different styles. Sage & Ashlee were great at finding dresses that complemented me well AND met my mom and grandma's expectations. Whether or not you say yes at Modern Dress, I guarantee your experience will be top notch and a day to remember.

I cannot say how much I love Modern Dress enough. Ashley, the owner, was SUCH a sweetheart. She was…read moreso patient with me and my girls and getting everyone coordinated and looking fabulous. I bought my bridesmaid dresses here for my May 2015 wedding and really wish I would've bought my wedding dress here. They have some amazing dresses and are definitely worth the time and effort to go through them. I ordered my dresses right before Thanksgiving for my wedding and was given an arrival estimate of 12 weeks. Perfect. More than enough time for altering. 12 weeks came. 12 weeks went. 13. 14. Ashley took a lot of her time to track down my dresses - sitting on a loading dock in California and then in Dallas TX - due to a shipping strike! Couldn't believe it. She was so apologetic and kept me in the loop on everything so I was never wondering what was going on or where my dresses were. She was absolutely on top of everything. I couldn't have asked for a better advocate for me and my bridal party! The dresses came in on time and looked gorgeous. Everybody loved their dresses and I was SO pleased. And every single Modern Dress employee was an absolute doll. Loved working with all of them. Definitely go here for your prom, bridal or any other special occasion dresses.

Really great service! Big and spacious love it here! The cookies are great!…read moregreat experience and effort put in here! One question tho... i wonder how much staff are here? I only saw 4-6 staff in here... But great service here :)

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.

I'm shouting at the top of my lungs, Brides - this is where you want to be! Ace is AMAZING!!! Her…read morecustomer service is what made us come back and say Yes to the Dress! Between Ace and the owner , we felt hands down our order, the dress, everything would be in good hands and nothing to worry about. They were beyond patient, tried on about 20 dresses and made the experience everything it should be and more. Want to feel special? Want to feel like you matter? This is the only place you should be going. Thanks again Ace!

I bought my wedding dress from Weddings by Design last week and they were so wonderful to work…read morewith! Melissa was my bridal consultant and she showed so much care for me, my family that had come with me, and even my fiancé who was not with me. She really took the time to get to know me and get to know what my style preferences were and understood what I needed to be able to not get overwhelmed by the options they had. She even let us go past my appointment end time because we were stuck between three options and put me back in each one to see if it could help me narrow it down and it absolutely did. I ended up buying my favorite that day and I am so, so, so excited to wear it for my wedding! If you are in the market for a dress, I highly recommend visiting Melissa and her team, they are amazing!!

I went to this store hoping to find my dream dress. I did find my dream dress but was not expecting…read moreso many headaches along the way. When ordering the dress, staff got my color wrong and almost ordered the wrong dress. luckily I caught it. Then told me the dress wasn't out of stock 1 day after telling me there were 3 left in stock. I knew this had to be a mistake and ended up having to talk to 3 different staff members before they could find the correct dress in stock. Now it's a month before my wedding and my wedding dress is literally falling apart at the seams. This should not be happening on a $2,000 dollar dress. I called the store to see what could be done and was informed that nothing could be done and I have to pay to get it fixed myself. As the lady on the phone told me this she did not sound sorry at all and was rather quite rude about it. I am not a fan of people who call businesses just to yell. So I calmly explained the problem and asked what could be done. Imagine my surprise when they informed me they would do nothing about the $2,000 dress falling apart. It was no longer their problem. I am deeply disappointed in their staff and lack of care concerning new brides to be.
