Gown – Ashley Jordan, bought at RK Bridal—A
Some of the veterans may remember my issue with another bridal store. I found the dress I wanted at a store that cut out the tags. The dress was $2,500, which was way more than I wanted to spend. I tried to find it online but couldn’t find the dress at all so I gave up. Decided to try one last ditch effort to find this dress so I typed 'lace bodice a-line skirt' into google. Lo and behold, it was the 3rd return. Got the info and went to RK Bridal to try it on ... and it was $650.00!!!!!! This is the exact same dress I tried on at that bridal shop. So, right away RK was very good to me . The staff was great – courteous and professional. I did have to wait at all of my fittings and had a little trouble communicating with the seamstress due to language barriers but all in all my dress came out perfectly. I would HIGHLY recommend them!

Great review Eileen. So beautiful!

Up until recently I lived in Plainview. I could have run to Bagel boss for you and delivered

Eileen - you were simply a stunning bride! Elegant, classy and just gorgeous. And that veil is to die for...what a thing of beauty! What an heirloom it will make!

I have been anxiously awaiting your review since I sympathized with a lot of the issues you had during planning...what a fun road that was...and I can't believe it's all over! (Thank God!)

Congratulatipns and many, many blessings for a long and happy marriage...

And what about the HM Mrs.?
