    Best experience ever!!

    Brynn is the best consultant ever! She helped me and my bridesmaids choose our dresses. She was extremely helpful and patient with us. We felt like comfortable and important to them! I would definitely go back for another formal dress!!

    My dress was my favorite part

    Always & Forever made my dress shopping experience so easy and exciting! They were so eager to help and find exactly what I was looking for. The girls were so nice to me and my wedding party. I will always recommend them to someone searching for a dress!

    Absolutely the friendliest staff! They were very patient with not only myself, but also with my family and friends who accompanied me. Also very knowledgeable about their dresses and designers.

    Plus Size Perfect

    This was by far my best experience while dress shopping. They had so much that I could actually try on in my size. And they made me feel so special. We got my dress and my bridesmaids dresses there. They are the best!!!!!

    I actually got my dress during their semi-annual sale, I wasn't expecting to find anything and fell in love. The prices were very reasonable. The staff was very helpful in helping me to find the style I was after and making my dress perfect. I wanted something with thick straps/cap sleeves, and fell in love with a dress that was strapless, but they had straps I bought separately also for a very reasonable price.

    It was so relaxed. Extremely helpful

    The ladies at Always and Forever was so helpful with finding the perfect dress for me.
    They took their time to listen to what I had in mind, they even gave me wonderful suggestions.
    We had such a fun time shopping for my dream dress.

    We were looking for a Homecoming ballgown. The assistants at Always and Forever were the best. We've shopped for Prom and other event dresses before, but never have been 100% satisfied with the service provided. Not so with Always and Forever. The ladies were extremely attentive to my daughter's needs, and were genuinely pleasant. We were in the store for only an hour, tried on several dresses, and when the hard choices were before us, helped direct us in choosing the perfect dress. (And let's be honest, when has anyone had their dress shopping done in an hour?) We have decided we will never waste our time in any other store except for A&F. The attendants were very coordinated, didn't waste our time, made everything smooth and efficient, and were very helpful in helping make our possible selections. Our choice was in under budget and we were extremely pleased with everything, from the time we entered the door and well after we left.

    In addition, I was looking for a particular dress. The day prior to shopping, I direct messaged A&F via Instagram and asked about the particulars of the dress. I had my message answered, and even had other suggestions given to me. Since we live 3 hours away, it was important for us to not drive to a location that had nothing to offer. Once I saw a few other suggestions, I knew we needed to make the drive.

    Thank you ladies for your excellent service!

    Always & Forever's reply:

    Deidra,
    We are thrilled to hear your feedback! Thank you so much for driving in to come see us; we look forward to assisting you with all your formalwear needs in the future. Tag us in your pictures on FB & IG -- we can't wait to see! :)

    Much Appreciation,
    The Always & Forever Team

    I LOVE my dress I got from Always & Forever! The workers are so sweet and the store has a great size, price, and style range in stock. I have also bought a prom dress and a bridal gown from them before and they are consistent with their services.

    This is the kind of wedding dress shopping experience you dream of. When you book an appointment, you are given full attention for as long as you need. Megan was so helpful and respectful of my budget and preferences. The dresses on the black hangers are over $1000 and the dresses on the white hangers are under $1000. It was so easy to stay within a reasonable price range because I just avoided the black hangers. This is the first place I tried on and this where I found my dress! I had an appointment at Beau's later that day and reluctantly went, but we headed right back to Always and Forever to try on my dress one more time, and we knew it was the one! Once the you decide on a dress, they continue the experience with a free veil and a cute little "Yes!" sign that you can hold while your friends and family take pictures. There are also many discounts you get on bridesmaids dress, tuxes, etc. when you buy your wedding dress there. I loved everything about this place and would recommend it to anyone. And the shop is absolutely beautiful!

    I found my dress on my first visit. The girl who helped me (Jill, I believe) was very sweet and helpful. I didn't feel rushed or pressured...even though I didn't realize I had been there a lot longer than I planned and the store was supposed to close long before I left. We weren't allowed to take photos, which was a bummer since my sister was not able to attend, but otherwise, everything was great! My sisters have also purchased dresses here and have always been pleased with the service and selection.

    Megan was absolutely amazing! I had the most amazing experience at Always & Forever Bridal. Not only did I find the dress of my dreams but Megan was great she felt more like a friend then anything else, I can't say enough good things about the staff the dresses or the customer service. My dress is more then I could have ever dreamed of and Megan made my experience one I will never forget! Thanks you Megan and everyone else at Always & Forever!

    I had a wonderful experience at Always & Forever. I had never tried on bridal gowns before, and I didn't really give Lauren much to go on. She was very patient with me and helped me select several dresses within my budget that fit my vision. When I found the perfect one, Lauren really listened to what I thought of it and assured me that I looked beautiful in it. Everyone there was kind and professional. It made finding the perfect dress even more fun!

    Forever and Always was exactly what I had been looking for in my (seemingly hopeless) search for a wedding gown for my beach wedding. Feeling nauseous at the thought of having my mom spend $4500 on a dress I was going to wear one time was not how I had intended my wedding process on beginning. I walked in to Always and Forever without an appointment and was immediately set up with THE BEST consultant. Not only did she help guide us through the dresses that were very organized, but actually chose the dress that I ended up purchasing! It was not on my radar at all but she told me she had a good feeling that I would look awesome in it. She was right! It was not anything like what I had looked at or tried on before but it was somehow exactly what I wanted. We were in and out within an hour and a half. Half of that time I was pretty much just prancing in front of the mirror... haha. I really wish I could remember my consultant's name because she was super nice and fun (and obviously has an eye for what will look good.) Just ask for the pretty blonde girl... surely there's only one of those right? Haha

    This place has all kinds of dresses to fit anyone's preference! I went to several different places, and honestly wasn't sure how to choose the right dress, but I finally bought mine at Always and Forever. The staff was very professional and helpful, and the woman who helped me made me feel like a real bride-to-be. The store does not shove too many dresses on one rack like I found at many other places, and it has excellent space for changing and mirrors. I would recommend making an appointment, just for the experience of having someone treat you like a bride.

    As much as we want this day of buying a wedding dress to be stress free, it is everything but that! However, 4 shops and 2 weeks later we walked into Always and Forever, No appointment, Not sure of what to expect .... wow to our surprise they made accommodations for us, they made the experience a very relaxed and fun one!!! We walked away saying "YES" to a gorgeous gown and I would so recommend this shop to anyone looking for that special day feeling - we shopped for wedding dresses from Rogers, Springdale, Fayetteville to Ft Smith and this store is far Superior to any of the others.

    I purchased my wedding dress at Always & Forever on Friday, March 22 of 2013. My experience with the staff was more than satisfying. They were very helpful and were wiling to do whatever it took to help me find the dress that i wanted. They were very professional and made my time picking out the dress for my very special day a wonderful experience. I couldn't have found the dress that suited me best without their hard work and dedication to their job. All the girls wore a smile on their face all day and you can tell they really enjoy what they do for those who are looking for the right dress for the right occasion. All the girls had excellent attitudes towards their customers. I would recommend Always & Forever to all of my friends.

    Where do I begin? Everything Always & forever offered me was wonderful. I walked in with three beautiful smiles waiting to meet me. They made me feel like I was the only bride in the world that mattered for that day & time. Jill was the biggest sweetheart! She was very helpful with the gowns that had to go overhead and knew exactly what to say when I couldn't describe how I felt about a dress. It was wonderful to have the youthful advice of Jill with the experienced wisdom of the owner all in the same room. They know dresses there. I never imagined I would find my dress the first time I went looking! I had two other places lined out and had to call & cancel. Thank you so much!

    Always & Forever's reply:

    Thank you so much for your sweet review Aubren! Garron is so lucky to have you as his soon to be! You are going to look absolutely stunning in your gown, it really is perfect on you! Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your big day.
    Congratulations,
    Jill
