I worked with the team at Lucia's Sarto for tailoring my wedding dress and I could not recommend…read morethem more! Before my first appointment, they gave me instructions on what to bring (like my bridal shoes and undergarments). During the appointments, they always took pictures/videos (that they then sent to me) and took the time to explain each piece of the dress with regard to what they recommended. However, they were never pushy and let me make my own decisions with what I wanted done to the dress. On my final appointment, they recorded a video on how to bustle my dress and gave instructions on how to zip it up. I thought the price point was very fair and I appreciated the fact the appointments were never overly long.

I was lowkey excited to have found my new tailor after a multi-year drought. It's not easy to find…read morea spot in the area that does good work, and I was optimistic about this from the jump. Ultimately, I ended up leaving this place with a bad taste in my mouth. When I got sized up and measured for my old suit, a blazer, and a casual button-down, everything was great. The staff was friendly, and Sarah did a nice job talking me through everything. I'll be real, it was ultimately a lot more money than I thought it would be. This place has a good reputation and I needed it done, so I rolled with it. You pay up front and then come back on the date they tell you. I'll say, a courtesy call that it's ready would've been nice as this is the kind of thing that easily slips the mind. Went in to get it, and noticed the button-down was still crazy long. Like, too long to wear. We had just sized it up a few weeks prior, and again, I remember it all clearly having had a positive interaction. I remembered the specifics -- at one point I thought the suggested length would be way too short, but we ultimately settled on an inch or so hemmed up. So I mention this, and whoever was taking care of me (not the same, friendly person from my first visit) was acting as if they'll make it all right, but noted it would be a new job. I.e., I'd have to pay even MORE than the $335 I'd already paid for the suit, blazer, and shirt taken in. I was surprised and was like, OK, but then it didn't sit well... again, I remember already going through this. That's where they left it. The way it came off to me was a half-assed, "Oh we just want you to be happy, so feel free to leave it with us and we can do what we said we were going to but charge you more for what we originally promised." Customer service matters, and you never want to drop a bag of money and feel dissatisfied, but that's where I'm at. I'm giving the courtesy of three stars again because the first half was a positive experience, and they ultimately got the suit and jacket right and on time. I respect that, but am disappointed to be right where I started with my shirt. Budget's already spent on alterations for the next couple years, and in my opinion, hemming it an inch to fulfill the original order shouldn't be a hill they die on. On to the next, and if you go here, I hope you get better resolution and customer service than I did.

I am amazed that this awesome place doesn't have any reviews yet! They were recommended to me by…read morethe bridal salon where I purchased my wedding gown. I decided to take in a very formal gown I was wearing to a wedding to test them out before giving them 'the' dress. I was blown away. They are getting all of my business for any formal or complicated alterations I need! I am a petite 5'1" female and there was a lot of this dress that needed to be taken in and shortened. They also put in some bra cups so that I didn't have to wear a bra. It doesn't look like much from the outside of the building, and it's not in the best location. But when you go inside, you can immediately tell you're in the right place. They have high end equipment and a nice space. It was busy when I walked in, which is also a good sign. The people here are well trained and know what they're doing. The man I worked with really took his time to make sure my dress was laying properly and would fit well with his adjustments. He reminded me to stand tall so that it wouldn't be messed up as he was taking measurements. They were also able to get my dress done within two weeks! They gave it to me freshly pressed and ready to go. Awesome service. I can't say enough positive things about this place.

HORRIBLE experience. My MIL booked a consultation for my wedding dress alterations and somehow they…read moredidn't book accordingly. Janet helped me into my dress and started pinning some stuff. I asked her to pin the underboob area and she just ran her fingers over it to "flatten" it out. She started pinning the bottom for hemming which was odd to me since the top of the dress should be altered before even looking at the hem... I looked down and noticed she snagged my dress! Front and center right on the top layer, I pointed it out and she scrunched her face and tried to smooth it over and just moved on like it didn't happen!? At this point all the red flags were glaring me in the face and I kindly asked "this is just a consultation, right?" And she scoffed and said "no, you're booked with me to tailor your dress." I let her know " I'm so sorry there must have been a misunderstanding this was just supposed to be a consultation." Then she proceeded to basically tell me I was wasting her time. I just wanted to get out of there as fast as I could. I feel awful after this experience. I left in tears with a snagged dress, I don't feel like she listened to me or tried to accommodate my requests. I would NEVER trust this place with any piece of clothing, let alone my wedding dress. I am so devastated and honestly livid. Don't go here

Came here with a friend to shop for a wedding dress. I will start by saying the staff was really…read morefriendly and very easy to work with. Our experience was a little disappointing as they didn't have any of the dresses in store that were in the website she was hoping to try on. This is of course not the stores fault or the staffs fault but made it hard to continue to appointment as they didn't have any styles she was interested in. The few dresses she tried on definitely looked like they had seen their time. They were pretty worn down and needed a fresh steam. Even some of the dresses on the mannequins looked like they could use a fresh dry cleaning. Overall the staff was lovely but we didn't find anything we liked and walked away empty handed.

To whom it may concern,…read more To put it plainly, I was very disappointed. The store appeared poorly maintained - the carpet was noticeable dirty, the walls looked unclean, and the restroom was absolutely filthy. I walked in and turned around immediately; it was that bad. If I were the manager at that location, I would be deeply embarrassed by the lack of attention given to the store's appearance and condition. It's clear the cleanliness and customer comfort are not priorities at this location. Even the dresses on display appeared to be dragged across the dirty carpet, leaving the hems dingy and unappealing. I expected a higher standard from a brand like Davise Bridal. This visit left me questioning whether I would recommend ot return to this location in the future. Thank you for your time, Claire Richardson

BE is hands down the best bridal shop I have ever been to. I have been to david's bridal, some…read moreboutiques in NE and some smaller businesses in KC, and no one does it like BE. I woke up and decided I wanted to find my wedding dress that day. As some of you know, it's nearly impossible to do walk-ins at bridal shops. After going to a few and trying to schedule a few appointments, which we successfully did for later in the evening, we called BE. They had just opened and advised they could fit us in immediately. As soon as I walked in the door, I was welcomed by a few of the staff members. The interior of the building was decorated gorgeously. Private bridal suites, with couches, chairs for guests and extremely large mirrors. A separate room with a large mirror to dress in private. Devon introduced herself and informed me she would be my bridal consultant for the appointment. Devon led me back to a private viewing room and asked to see pictures and pinterest boards of wedding dresses I liked. She asked specifically what I liked about it, what I disliked and what I was indifferent on. After going through the run down, Devon personally measured me to ensure the dresses I tried on would fit. The best part was that Devon wasn't awkward about seeing me in undergarments or somewhat naked when trying on dresses. She made me feel comfortable in my own body and not judged. After going to some previous shops, I wasn't measured and they guessed which led to me not being able to fit in certain gowns and getting stuck so this was very reassuring off the bat. Devon is hands down one of the most sweetest, kindest, outgoing, bubbly and most helpful consultant I've ever encountered. Devon listened to understand which was huge for me. Devon pulled a variety of dresses and helped me realize the dresses I liked in the photos, I didn't like on my body. We were able to figure out what dresses fit my body type and the very last dress Devon pulled happened to be my dream dress. Devon took me to the celebration suite when she asked if I was saying yes, then popped a bottle of champagne. They also gave my pregnant friend a sparkling water so she could enjoy as well. The owner came in and personally congratulated me and gave me compliments on the dress. After dressing out, they asked to take a yes picture to celebrate. All in all, this is hands down the best small business bridal shop I've ever been to. This experience made me so glad to have chosen this shop. Thank you ladies, you've outdone yourself

I visited Bridal Extraordinaire with my sister and some friends while she was on the hunt for the…read moreperfect wedding gown. This place was super fun, and had a ton of reasons to shop here. First of all, the stylist we worked with was SO nice, fun, and helpful. She was five stars all the way. I loved the dresses she tried - all of them were gorgeous. The only reason I'm giving 4/5 and not 5/5 is because the building itself has seen better days and in comparison to some other bridal boutiques it just didn't have as much elegance (though was still very nice!) also it felt less intimate since there were probably 3-4 other fittings going on and you had to walk through at least one of them to get to our fitting room, which felt a bit awkward. Overall would I recommend? Absolutely! Is it the *best* experience in town, maybe not, but it's a close second.
