I just got back from Bridal Suite in Bay shore. Thank you to the ladies who recommended Mary Ellen. She was great!!! I recommend her also. She knew what she was doing, wasn't pushy, but offered her ideas, suggestions and shared opinions (gently). In fact, Mary Ellen is actually the one who found the dress I picked in the end. I almost didn't try it on b/c it was very similar to another dress I tried on in a different store. But it was ever so slightly different that it made it just right.

I went in, she got the dress I thought I wanted. Then, to satisfy my curiousity I tried on 4 others in satin. They were lovely, but it confirmed my original feeling about the dress!

In all, I ended up going to 3 places and trying on about 20 dresses. Hmm...seeing that in writing makes me think it wasn't as quick as I was feeling. I guess I thought it would be torture and it wasn't! LOL!

Thank you all for your helpful suggestions and supportive posts!

congrats! that's so exciting.

I also got my dress at Bridal Suite of Bayshore. I worked with Rachel, who is great, but Mary Ellen was watching and helping out and she was the one who suggested I try on a dress and it wound up being the one!! I guess she really knows her stuff!
