Trying on dresses and taking pictures

I'm going to be trying on a few dresses in March and I'll be on my own for this one so I was wondering...

Can I ask the salesperson helping me to take pictures so I can decide with my friends (who can't be there)? Do you think they'll agree to that?

The more upscale salons will never agree to this. Some of the more neighborhood type places will allow it though.

Valentina's allowed to take a pic of the dress once I ordered it.

No one lets you do it! My mom lives in Florida and they wouldn't even let me do it to send her pics! They all think you are going to take that pic and find the dress somewhere else.

Re: Trying on dresses and taking pictures

RK Bridal in the city lets you. I know they use to sell disposable cameras. Also Avic (?) in Bayside let me take pictures before buying as well. Most places won't let you until you buy the dress - it stinks.

Maybe you can try to take it without a flash. But most places won't let you, unless your ordered the gown.

Re: Trying on dresses and taking pictures

Everywhere I went to had signs up that said no pictures. I would find out if they have available any pictures of dresses you like from the designers that you could take.

David's let me take pics! Their dresses are original, so you can't go buy it somewhere else.
