    I've already been to 2 places and being here with only the second dress I found the one I wanted. So happy with the fit and oh my gosh didn't know I'd be saving thousands. They took such good care of me.

    The top is how the associate at Altar showed me it would fit. The bottom is how it actually fit post Gaby Couture alterations.

    Before you shop here, filter on MOST RECENT reviews and then 1 star reviews. My review was removed so keep in mind the rating may be biased towards positive reviews. I purchased a dress here and regret it. I purchased a size 14 and the sales associate ASSURED me I could have it taken in by their expert seamstress to a size 10. She acted like this would be no big deal. See photos of how the dress looked in-store vs how it looked post alterations. I left a separate review for the seamstress, but the store should know she replaced the clean bag they sent me home with and gave me a dress bag full of dust, glitter, and hair. Imagine having to lint roll your dress a million times to get all that off. My main point for Altar is that they should not sell dresses to young brides for thousands of dollars that are far outside the bride's size. The business is greedy so beware of this.

    Fantastic find! Great staff/owners and shop dog Tom was adorable. Great prices, amazing size assortment and an all around delightful experience. Highly recommended!

    The detail on this dress was amazing, but it was still 2k roughly.

    So my future sister-in-law booked this place for me to try on wedding dresses. She had heard good things about this place, but had found her dress and didn't need to go to new places. Anyway, when you first park you are greeted with a store front that looks kind of like a 90s prom, party store. Images are big and they are a bit dated, but don't let the quality of the outside fool you! The inside is actually very well kept and feels like your traditional boutique bridal store. When we went inside, we were greeted by Victoria and she told us that we could browse the dresses and just use a clip to clip anything we wanted. The store was portioned out into different sizes and each rack was then divided into style of dress. I did notice they had a decent selection of short dresses which was one thing I was looking for. So far the best seletion I had seen. They also had a back section for super expensive dresses. So they are a consignment store for both pre-owned wedding dresses and other bridal stores that are consigning their previous years' selection. (If you want to consign your dress, they evaluate the price and you have 90 days to sell it. I didn't really find dresses that were pre-owned. Most were sample dresses that were getting consigned by a bridal boutique.) After you go through your selection, then you would try on the dresses and then the stylist would pick out any other dresses for you once they got your style. So the dress process was fine. They had a good selection of unique dresses that I was eyeing and there was never any pressure to purchase anything from them. (I did find that even though this was a consignment store, the prices for dresses were still pretty high for certain dresses. I guess I was expecting them to be cheaper?) I had already purchased my bhdln dress, but wanted to check out a couple more stores with my future sister in law. If a dress could knock out my bhldn one then I would cancel my order. Needless to say, I did not find a dress to topple the bhldn dress, however, I still had a great experience. So please come check this place out!

    Well this place is fine. The dresses are all used on consignment so you need to be realistic about their condition. Watch for tears and buttons and zipper issues. They say that the dresses are washed but I would definitely wash it again after purchase. The interior in here is blah and cheesy. But it's big and spacious enough to try on dresses comfortably. I appreciate that the sales girl was direct and up front with me. No games. To me the prices weren't that great. The sweatshop in the back is freaky. Of course the seamstresses are hard at work but yuck..it looks like a jungle of world labor laws back there. It's all about luck here.

    Go somewhere that doesn't charge a fee to shop. This place is very transactional. You can do better.

    The thrift store for those who can afford not to "thrift"…read more I have put off writing this review because I appreciate the mission, enjoy the atmosphere, and the staff has been (mostly) friendly. The issue I have is that more than 50% of the time I have been overcharged and/or charged for items I didn't buy. A couple of times one of our party has caught it in time. When we caught it as we were loading stuff in the car this time, I immediately went back in and I was told I could get store credit (which requires a commitment to return to a store I struggle to trust), and, "there is nothing else we can do." One time, I can suck it up and deal with. A second time, okay, there is still room for grace. But to repeatedly have this experience, I need to tell people to- BEWARE! I go to thrift stores because as mom of a large family, I DO need to count my soon to be discontinued pennies!

    I like to consider myself a thrift store connoisseur but I had no idea this place existed, what…read morerock have I been living under?? I went to Yelp and it clearly showed me the way so per usual, thanks Yelp! There seems to be some construction going on with the car dealership they share a lot with so the parking situation was a bit of a hot mess, even on a Wednesday morning. But the sales and prices clearly made up for that, I was greeted by volunteers telling me the specials of the day which included a color tag and then women's tops. I found some great brands because it is so well organized and the prices were reasonable. I just loved this place and had such a great time exploring the racks. I even plan on bringing my donations here next time it's for a donation run! Support local thrift stores and visit here.
