Re: Any info on Bridal Garden
I went and didnt find what I was looking for. Its set up like a sample sale. All the dresses are out on the floor and you rummage through it. There is one person manning the phones, door and the dressing room. Also there is only 2 dressing but when I went there werent many people there.
Bridal Garden is for a great cause though! Good Luck!

Re: Any info on Bridal Garden
it's a great cause but it wasn't for me. Like the PP I didn't find my dress there and you have to be really lucky to find the dress you love in your size, if you find a dress you like at all.

I think it's a luck of the draw type of place, bc it depends on what gets donated and your own timing. I personally found nothing of interest when I went, and wish I spent the the time at a proper bridal salon. But maybe you'll catch a great deal!

Re: Any info on Bridal Garden
I went last winter with my friend who was getting married. They were EXTREMELY rude to us. You can only bring 2 people with you, and she had 5. 3 people had to stand in the hallway, even though there were only 1 or 2 other brides there at the time.
Alot of the dresses were damaged or dirty, and you had to go through them yourself. If you know exactly what you want and you are a popular size, then I'd say it's worth a shot. Otherwise, don't waste your time.

Re: Any info on Bridal Garden
I went last week. I found a Judd Waddell that I loved but I think thats what made me decide that I want a white gown. The gown there was ivory and it just didn't pop..
Helped me along on my dress shopping though!
But the other girls are right, it really depends on timing and what they get at any given time...
