Re: The good, the bad & the ugly on RK Bridal

I have already been to the store and the dresses are kind of crappy. Its expected with dresses that are tried on by 100's of women. These are samples so these poor things are used and abused.
Anyway, everytime I call RK there is some nasty woman on the phone. I just don't think I can deal with that every time call. I already called 5 times and it isn't getting any better.
For now I am leaning towards netbride. If the girls say otherwise.

Re: The good, the bad & the ugly on RK Bridal

I got my wedding gown and veil from RK, and I WISH I had gotten the BM dresses at RK instead of crappy-a** David's Bridal. As far as my gown ordering goes, they've been wonderful I have my second fitting today, and so far it's been great. They completely f**ked up my veil order, though, which really p***ed me off. The bridesmaid dresses I saw there were really nice and a lot cheaper than I would have expected. Overall I'd say they've been average to good to deal with.

Girls, when I wrote about the quality of the dresses, I didn't mean their dirtiness and wear, I mean the fabric and how it fits a person's body...

Some dresses were made of such icky fabric

Re: The good, the bad & the ugly on RK Bridal

RK Bridal has the largest variety of BM dresses that I've seen (Dessy, Watter&Watters, Jim Hjelm, After Six, etc.) The only brand that I wanted to see that they didn't carry was Siri.

If you know what you want, their no frills program is the best for saving money. My BM dresses arrived 2 weeks early! You are dealing with a large company, make it simple for them. I picked up the dresses and I fedexed them to my BMs myself.

All in all - I rate RK Bridal a A.

p/s If you want to go try on dresses, highly recommend taking a day off from work, it is so much more pleasant than the zoo during the weekends.

GOOD LUCK!

Alina - NOT trying to start an argument but if the dresses were made of any icky fabric, you have to blame that on the designer/manufacturer, that has nothing to do w/RK.
