Just found BM Dresses $70 cheaper online

I just checked out houseofbrides.com and found the dresses I liked for $70 less than Macys has them. I'm so excited.

i am using house of brides too - my girls are saving about $80

if you are ordering jasmine- be careful if it is a spring 2005 dress because they are reneggotiating their contract with jasmine - it only applies to those dresses

Wait, wait, wait!!!! First and foremost, check the better business bureau. I did, and they have over 46 complaints throughout the years. Instead, print out the price quote and then order from RK Bridal in the city. They will not only match the price but give you an extra 5% off. That's even better

Thanks so much for the advice. I'll definitely check them out.

Is RK bridal the only bridal shop that will do this??? one of my BM's are a little skiddish about ordering online.. I was afraid to order in a store becasue of the price.. I wonder If I print out the amount I can get the dress for and bring it to them (any where other than NYC) would they give me a deal?? Hmmm..

Re: Just found BM Dresses $70 cheaper online

I had my reservations too. I called RK and asked them if I could do all these transactions in person. I guess going into an establishment would make me feel more at ease going in person, than ordering online. There are a few place that will match prices from competing bridal salon, but Im not too sure if they will match online pricing. RK is the only place I know that will match online retailers.

I got my BM dresses in the mail just yesterday from .netbride - I have nothing but good things to say about them - they are quick and efficient - they doublecheck your order with you several times to make sure it's correct.

I never even looked online to see if they were cheaper elsewhere. I do a lot of online shopping, but big things like that I just cant bring myself to ordering it from the 'net.

I ordered my bridal gown through Netbride and was thrilled. On House of Brides, the store is here in the neighborhood where I work in Torrance CA. They are the biggest liars. I told them I only wanted to try on Maggie dresses(they were the only store to carry them for miles) and they tried to pass off Mori Lee as a Maggie. I hate lying. I only figured it out since I saw the dress on a Mori Lee sight. Be careful with them....

Oh and Netbride will match your House of Bride quote.

Re: Just found BM Dresses $70 cheaper online

ok so i just checked the BBB and i won't be ordering from them

But i checked Pearls Place www.pearlsplace.com - they have no problems and the very similar prices to House of Brides - take a look at you do have to call to get a lot of quotes - there is also bridesave and netbride but they don't carry my bridesmaid dresses

Re: Just found BM Dresses $70 cheaper online

I am planning on using pearlsplace.com. I talked to Fred from there and he went over the whole process with me. They seemed really efficient and the price that they quoted me for a Bill Levkoff dress for my BM was unbeatable. I think if you just leave enough room for error you will be ok. My sister's aren't all for the online buying but I know my girlfriends are down for $85 difference!
