I had the BEST experience dress shopping here! All the ladies were so helpful from the time I made my appointment, they handpicked dresses and even had some sent over from their other location for me to try on and continued to stay in contact with me through phone calls up until my appointment. Then on my appointment day, when I had car trouble and was very late to my appointment, they offered to stay open late for me and help me find the perfect dress. Thank you so much! I cannot recommend Hope's enough!

10/10 Highly recommend an Elegant Affair, where I purchased my dress and veil. They were patient with me and my indecisiveness and Katie was fabulous at narrowing down the styles I truly liked. She worked with me and my budget and helped me pick out the perfect dress, which I was able to get at a discount since I purchased it off the rack. I was also able to get my alterations done on site, which was very convenient. I loved supporting a local small business. Thank you, An Elegant Affair!

Going to Weddings By Design to find my wedding dress was the best decision I could have made! Jan was my consultant and she was AMAZING! I went in with an idea of what I wanted and she helped pick dresses that fit that idea, as well as some to give different styles a try. Jan was never pushy, even when encouraging me to try on different styles than I thought I would like. She made the experience so fun and I felt no pressure and at ease the whole time. She reminded me that if I didn’t like something, I could just take it off. Jan encouraged me to try on a dress that was beautiful and that’s the one I ended up choosing! I would recommend Weddings By Design to anyone who is looking for a fun, no pressure, and amazing experience when finding their dream dress!

Madonna's Wedding Belle did my dresses and tuxes for my wedding. Everything turned out great!

This place is amazing and the ladies here are wonderful! One thing I love about this bridal salon is that when you first try on a dress you are in fitting room which is big enough to move around it, carpeted, with mirrors, and even has a little pedestal for you to stand on to see how the dress flows. If you don't like how it looks on you you can decide to not go out in front of everyone wearing it. I enjoyed this place so much more than David's Bridal. Celebration stored my dress for a year before my wedding and even steamed my veil with my dress. They were a pleasure to work with!

The Shoppe has the style of dress that I wanted, but not the right color. I was able to try the style on then they custom ordered it to my specification. The dress came in in time, the fitting went amazing, as did the alterations. Everything ended up gorgeous and ready to go on the big day!

Only a couple tuxes didn't fit when they came in, but they had replacements within hours.

My daughter and I had only a short time in our schedule to look for a dress. While out looking, I called the store and said they said they could do it in a half hour time if we could get there. The staff staff immediatey helped us to make a selection to try. We were excited because we found the perfect dress to fit and what my daughter had wanted. She called me over to see it and was so excited about it. She stated it was what she had visualize and wanted. They were very friendly and helpful in finding the perfect dress for my dauhgter and saying yes to the dress. Thank you for making her wedding perfect and felling beautiful . I would recommend them to anyone. mother of bride Carolyn Brock
