Yours and Yours only or something similar (ridiculous name IMHO).
I dont have any dress shopping experience, but I ducked in the other day to look at a unity candle set, I have one but am second guessing it.

Let me tell you it was PAINFUL. Everything was up on a high shelf. Guy on phone didn't acknowledge me. Teeny sales girl gets a giant ladder, and hands the ones I want to see down to me.
I pick one, fine, they only have WHITE tapers. Candle is ivory.
I want a holder (3 piece glass set). Fine. They had me 3 glass pieces which DO NOT MATCH EACH OTHER.
Big boss comes over. Says I'll have a matching one for you tomorrow, come by after work.
Now im irritated by say fine.
Then I say let me leave a deposit, get a receipt.
Fine
Girl writes it up, ($110 for the whole thing, ridiculous right?); I give her my debit visa card.
Guy on phone who has IGNORED me til now says oooooo i'm sorry we just got our machines installed (?) and not working.

This took 30 minutes. I just looked at them sadly and said you know, this is too painful. Lets skip it...

The name is You and Yours Only the address has tobe 34-?? Steinway Street, Astoria, NY, 11103. The number is 718-433-4171.

I went there for my bridesmaid dresses. I have delt with Maria (a little excentric, but nice) and Jose (one of the owners). In the end, they are making my dresses for me. Jose has been excellent with me and so has Maria. Jose actually made me fell better with my choices and was reassuring. I am a very visual person and need to see things as is, so making a dress is hard for me, but they were great. Obviously, my dresses haven't even been started, but I will keep you posted as it progresses. They have also been nice to my bridesmaids who have gone for measurements.

I say ask to speak with Maria or Jose, some of the other sales girls are just that girls. Maria has been there for 6 years and is not a little girl. The second time I went I was walking around the place like I lived there, so the young sales girl never phased me.

Also, technically there first day open was this past Friday because they moved from down the block.
