My daughter-in-law bought her wedding dress here. Our saleslady was very helpful & pleasant. She ordered the dress in a larger size, given the obvious fact my daughter in law would loose weight, which she did. She had two fittings (which you have to pay extra for & we knew that) and at the second fitting 3 weeks before the wedding she told the lady (Stacy) the dress was too tight and she couldn't breathe. Stacy said not to worry, the material would "stretch." I didn't know satan "stretched." We pick the dress up and she tried it on at home, and we couldn't even get it zipped. Then the buttons started to pop off. In a panic, we called, took the dress down the next morning and the gals were very nice. Interesting side note, my daughter in law had been very sick since her last fitting, so the dress should have been TOO big. NOT. A different seamstress came in, said they would fix it and didn't charge. Stacy, calls my son the day before the wedding and told him that it wasn't their fault my daughter in law gained weight and got "fat." Yes, she said fat!! My son took issues with her tone and she said we were "lucky they were even fixing it since it was all our fault." Very rude lady, and she is the manager. When my daughter in law put the dress on for the wedding it was too big in the top, but fit everywhere else. The seamstress the day before didn't adjust the top, only the waist. Was this intentionally done by Stacy??? Makes us wonder. Bottom line, if you buy a dress for $3100, it best fit correctly. This one didn't. We had to use two sided tape to make certain the top stayed up. Nice sales ladies, but the manager Stacy was awful. Stacy needs to find a new line of work.
Pros: Sales lady was very nice and so were the receptionists.
Cons: The manager was rude & made us feel like awful.
