Shoutout Connor for being the best stylist, she truly had MY best interest at heart.

After purchasing six wedding dresses from Bridal & Formal over the years, I never thought I would…read moreleave this review--especially for a business that prides itself on being family-owned and creating special experiences for brides and their families. My daughter tried on a floor sample that fit her, and the exact same size was ordered. When her brand-new gown arrived, it was approximately 1 1/2 inches from closing. She had gained about five pounds, which we never denied, but no one adequately addressed the significant difference in fit between a heavily tried-on floor sample and a brand-new gown. It wasn't our job to know how repeated try-ons might affect the fit of a sample gown. It was their job, as experienced bridal professionals, to account for that and make sure the correct size was ordered--not simply order the same size because the floor sample fit. That is exactly why you rely on professionals when purchasing a wedding gown. General Manager Tina Minshall took my daughter's measurements. When my daughter asked, "Did I go up a size? What are we looking at?" she was told she had "gained an inch and a half in your back area." Her additional questions went largely unanswered, and she was essentially told the gown would have to be altered. The way this was handled was dismissive and insensitive. My daughter left in tears. What should have been a joyful experience trying on her wedding gown with her family instead left her embarrassed and feeling terrible about herself. We never asked for money, a refund or free alterations. I wrote directly to the owners about what happened, hoping simply for an acknowledgment or apology. Weeks later, I have received absolutely no response. After six wedding-dress purchases, our family's loyalty ends here. I have another daughter who will eventually need a wedding gown and several granddaughters behind her. Bridal & Formal will no longer be where our family shops. A dress can be altered. The memory of watching your daughter cry during what should have been a wonderful family moment is much harder to fix.

My fiance and I went to Skeffington's to check out what they had in the way of tuxes and to get a pricelist. There were three attendants with one helping a party, so two were available. We stood there looking at their mannequins for 10 minutes with no one asking if we needed help. The last straw was when a man walked in and was immediately asked if he needed help. I took a couple of brochures to indicate that I was in need of some assistance, but nothing. It's not like we were at Best Buy or Target and I can walk in and find my purchase and leave, we were looking at tuxes, there wasn't a thing in the store that you could purchase without some sort of assistance. Needless to say, we left the store in mind that we would not patrionize any location regardless of the talent they other locations may have. We went to Men's Wearhouse and were greeted immediately upon entering the door and were directed to the right section. We were met by a young lady who was most helpful, more helpful than I dare say, Skeffington's.

I bought six mother of the bride dresses and none of them worked for me. I called David's bridal before I ordered them online to confirm that I could return them to the store as it is stated on the website. When I got to the store, it was evident that the box stores are "separate" from the online David's bridal and they do not appreciate returning online purchases at their store. Because of a glitch on David's bridal side and after more than an hour in the store waiting, only five of the six dresses I was returning were showing up to be returnable. After being told, I was on my own and had to call the general 1-800 number to try to figure out what happened to the sixth dress, I was finally given a UPS return label a week later from the online David's bridal just to find out that they charged me $15 to return the dress that I had in person at the store a week earlier to return! I did not find the customer service to be helpful or friendly. I would never shop at David's bridal if it was the last bridal store left in the United States!
