Bridal Reflections

Have any of you gone to bridal reflections for either your dress or BM dresses? After hearing horror stories about Davids Bridal, I really have no clue (besides Wedding Ctr in Commack) where to look.

Re: Bridal Reflections

I would recommend Lillette's in Baldwin.. They were very very nice and helpful and had a good selection of bridal party dresses.

Re: Bridal Reflections

I have heard they are a little expensive.....I believe a lot of ladies have gone to Kleinfelds....Is there a specific designer you like?

Re: Bridal Reflections

Helen's Wedding World (not to be confused with the Commack Wedding Center) is wonderful. I love the ladies there. Macy's has a pretty big selection of Demetrios dresses, although service is hit or miss (at both Smith Haven and Manhasset - you could luck out at either location and get awesome service, or go in the other direction, although I haven't heard major horror stories). Beautiful Bride in Lynbrook was also very nice. Carmela's Bridal in Huntington was also very nice.

Not so great experience at Princess Bridal's in Farmingdale (and they take the manufacturers tags out of their dresses).

Re: Bridal Reflections

I would reccomend Kleindfelds..I got my dress there and, unfortunately my BM dresses at BR. I wish I had gone to Kleinfelds Bridesmaids Loft instead.

Re: Bridal Reflections

I got my dress and my BP got their dresses at Bridal Reflections in Carle Place and we all had wonderful experiences. Now that Kleinfeld is in Manhattan, I cannot imagine that it is any less expensive than a Long Island shop.

This is one of the reasons I didn't use BR. Kleinfelds reduced my dress far better the BR without much haggling.
I tried to address this with one of the mangers at BR and she was so dismissive.
Price was only one reason...there are many others...but maybe I just always caught them on their bad days!

Re: Bridal Reflections

I got my dress from Bridal Reflections in Massapequa and they were wonderful to deal with, I also got my bms dresses there and did not have such a wonderful experience but that was mostly with the seamstress there.
