FYI - David's Bridal in Carle Place is moving

on June 1st. If any of you girls ordered and/or bought your dress there, I STRONGLY advise if your wedding is coming up soon, that you get your dress out of there ASAP. They are the most unorganized business I've ever seen !!

Re: FYI - David's Bridal in Carle Place is moving

We got my flower girl dress there and I was VERY hesitant..but thought how bad can they be!!!!

Well,,,yesterday the manager called me telling me that I had 5 days to pick up the flower girl dress otherwise they cant guarantee that after they move they will be able to locate the dress and they arent resposible for it!!!!!!!!!

They are moving next to Fortunoffs at the Source Mall.

Good. I'm glad I was able to help out. I wouldn't want anyone to go through the horror of them loosing their dress(es).

That explains why we had a certain amoutn of days to pick up our dresses. They said they were 'changing computers?' Ughh We all have our dresses but what do we do about fittings now. I feel like it's going to be so chaotic.

Keep your dresses and go elsewhere for your alterations. They are just so unorganized. But that's up to you. Being your wedding isn't for a while, maybe you could chance it, but for right now, take ALL of your dresses home with you until at least after their move. It's sad, but their staff even advised some of us girls to take our dresses home before the June 1st move. If I wasn't getting married in less than a month and paid in FULL for everything, I'd take my business somewhere else, but unfortunately, I have no choice at this point. Good Luck to you !

Re: FYI - David's Bridal in Carle Place is moving

OMG - Thank you for this!!
I've placed one BM dress order there, but i'm going to remove it and have my MOH take care of it at Davids in Boston. I never got the feeling that the girls at the Carle Place store really knew what they were talking about. They were always more concerned with taking an order and gossipping than helping you out..

thanks!

Good for you. I'm happy things worked out for you. I was also having positive experiences with them until it came to alterations.

Our initial appt. went well and even my first fitting, but then down hill after that. I've hears negative things about their alteration department, but took a chance because everything else seemed to be going smoothly. Boy, was i wrong. I'm going on Wednesday to get my dress whether it's done or not !

for you! I am sure everything will work out in the end...My bridesmaids and I are not getting our alterations done there...I have a seamstress, who is a friend of the family, doing them.
