PSA

Hi,

I used to post here all the time when planning my wedding in 2006. Now, I chat on lifamilies sometimes. However, I felt the need to come back and warn future brides about the way I was recently treated at Commack Wedding Center on Crooked Hill Road.

I am in my brothers upcoming wedding and had to go there to get my gown. They measured me in the middle of the showroom, yelled out my size across a busy area, and didn't even offer to let me try on the dress. Also, when I asked them why they were ordering a particular size, 6, the girl threw down the size chart and said 'look at the chart'. I was on asking because I was in my sisters wedding in October and was ordered a size 2 from the same designer. I didnt want to be overcharged for big alterations later.

Finally, when my older sister went to be sized for her gown they told her she should 'back out' of the wedding because she is pregnant and due close to the wedding date. Now, my sister offered this to my brother and his future wife and they agreed they wanted her in the wedding. How dare these people suggest otherwise.

Sorry this is so long but I know many brides here have had negative experiences with thema ddn I wanted to warn you all of the way they may treat your bridal party if you use them.

Happy Planning All!!

i went there for my first wedding over 10 years ago...they are so slimy!! They ordered my dress at least 2 sizes too big and were obnoxious too. Felt like i was on a used car lot. This wedding....i went elsewhere....

I went there to look at favors bc I heard they were the cheapest & when I went there they were RUDE,and very unprofessional. One instance was when I was looking at bridesmaid dresses with my sis and we were clearly in the rack going through them one by one. I had one in my hand to put back & a woman working there stepped directly in front of me looking through the dresses, I stood there & looked at my sis like *** and waited for her to get out of the way. I waited a good 20 secs and then just dropped the dress on the floor. HELLO i am a customer!!! No excuse me or anything!
Then I told a woman upstairs I was looking for a dress with color and she said they were the only place that had them. I told her that wasnt true bc I tried on dresses with color at other places. She said well then those are copies and only we have the originals here & they DO NOT come in purple. I told her they did bc I saw the book and she told me that was a lie!

I will NEVER go back!
