Re: help....bridal gowns

I went there to look a couple of weeks ago and then back again on Monday. Thay have a really nice selection and a lot of room (I didn't realize how nice this is until I went to some places that were so small and cramped. It definately made my experience much nicer) The woman who helped me, Mary, was really nice and helpful. Some other places I felt I started to get an attitude from the salespeople because I couldn't tell them what i was looking for (I am all over the place and can't make a decision to save my life ) but she didn't. She just helped me look around and offered some suggestions. They also let you take pictures there which I think is great!! I have heard some problems from a frined of mine about after she bought the dresses for her sisters wedding. I think it had to do mostly with fittings and that they only do them like, 1 Saturday a month. So that could be annoying.

yeah, you should probably call for an appointment. Especially if you want to go on a Saturday.

I got my dress there and had no problems (I didn't find my dress there but they ordered it for me). I definitely would recommend appointments. I worked with Donna.

I ordered my dress for Paradise Bridals and I have had the best experience so far! Mary was extremely helpful, as was Donna. I think I have dealt with like five different employees because I'm always calling with questions, and everytime I call everyone is soooo sweet. They also did not carry my dress there, but they were still able to order it for me and at a better price than the last place I went to! My friend also got her dress there and she was also thrilled with their service. ALso, they allow pictures, which is always a plus in my book! As far as alterations, I haven't reached that point yet, but I plan on booking my appointments way in advance just to be safe.
