I tend to find the opposite lately. Everyone complaining about Carle place... and having good experiences at Massapequa. I got mine at Massapequa and it was great.
I feel the same way... I bought my dress at Mass and had a wonderful experience. I thought everyone was very nice and accommodating. I even stopped by last week just to take a look at my dress and they pulled the sample for me with no problem (I didn't have a apt).
I have to say I have heard good and bad things about almost every vendor- so I would base your choices on your personal experiences.
ditto for me....def. take all opinions with a grain of salt...some women have had bad experiences with vendors and it was great for me and vice versa.
They are on the pricier side...but the salon is clean, for me they have been great with service and I love my dress.....I bought mine at Massapequa and so far so good. ...I didn't have a big budget either...my dress was under a 1,000
