    Wonderful day with family

    I paid for the VIB package and it was worth every penny. I got to try on 8 beautiful dresses and spend time with my loved ones. The owners were wonderful and made sure everyone was having a good time. They had a wide variety of styles and sizes for me to choose from but I knew which one I wanted from the beginning as I had been staring at it on there Instagram page for weeks before trying it on. My only advice is to bring people you trust and a pair of heals with you when you come to try dresses on!

    I Said Yes to the Dress at My First Bridal Appt

    Penny was an absolute doll to work with! This place came highly recommended from my sister in law. I was in awe of Penny’s professionalism and attention to detail. She encouraged me to go outside my comfort zone in selecting a gown that would “wow the crowd.” I made my first appointment at Formality Bridal and said yes to the dress within in an hour. And you can’t beat their prices!

    Meant to Be!!

    I fell in love with a dress I saw online so I called and a wonderful lady answered. I believe her name was Penny. She had no available appointments any time soon and we new the dress I loved wouldn't last for long. So she came in early at 11:30 (store opens at 12) so I could try on the one dress. I fell in love with it and ended up buying it right then and there. It needs a few alterations but nothing major. And the dress was only 379$!

    Amazing experience!

    This is a small shop in a small town so I wasn't expecting much, but Penny has such beautiful selection of gowns and customizes every appointment to meet your needs. She found my perfect dress! It had arrived at the shop only an hour before my appointment and she thought it would be a good match for me. I knew it was "the one" the second she put it on me. She also picked out a veil that matched wonderfully. Penny is always getting new merchandise to please her clients. The best part is all of her gowns are under $400 and most of them have never even been worn!! I highly recommend you take a trip to see Penny at Formality Resale!

    Thank you for you business and your kind words.

    Perfection!

    Penny and her shop are amazing!

    I found Formality reSale on Wedding Wire and based on their reviews I decided to make an appointment. Penny was very responsive and accommodating.

    I was going to go here first but I am the type of person who needs to know what all of my options are before I make a decision and since Formality reSale sells gowns off of the rack I didn't want to go into it wondering what other, more traditional bridal salons had to offer. I feel like this helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted in terms of shape, fabric, and silhouette.

    The shop is really cute and Penny is very professional and definitely knows what she's doing. She's not pushy at all and has great suggestions. I put on the dress I had been eyeing and knew it was the one - and it doesn't even need any alterations! Penny also threw a veil on me that matched perfectly with the dress.

    I am so happy I went to Formality reSale and got to walk away with my actual dress and veil that same day and most importantly, only paid a fraction of the price that I would've paid anywhere else.

    I would definitely recommend Formality reSale to any bride! Thanks again Penny! :)

    I said yes to the dress!

    Formality Resale was very nice and made dress shopping very easy. Penny was amazing and kind and very helpful. Can't beat the price and I got to take my dress home with me the same day! Would highly recommend to anyone that is on a budget or just wants a great deal and a wedding gown.

    Wonderful experience and AMAZING prices

    This was the third shop I looked at for dresses. Some people see resale and get scared away but let me tell you, it was an AWESOME experience. All of the dresses were about $400 or cheaper. Some new some used (only once though)! I was the only one in the shop for my appointment. The dress I ended up picking out was only about $360 and has never been worn. It's beautiful and just my style. I would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone. Especially if you're on a budget. I mean you only wear the dress once anyway!

    Best wishes for a lifetime of love and happiness!

    A great find!

    I was pleasantly surprised when I came across this shop. They have a GIANT selection of samples, once-worn, and other dresses that help you save a fortune. I got both my dress (which I am madly in love with) and a veil for the fraction of the price that you would pay at another shop.

    They also have a seamstress of staff, and though I plan to go thru her, I do not have a review for her yet. But I am sure that she will be just as great as the rest of the experience!

    Formality Resale's reply:

    Thank you so much for your review! So glad you enjoyed the experience! We are always humbled when a bride takes the time to tell others what a good experience they had. From the bottom of our hearts....thank you.
    And best wishes for a lifetime of love and happiness ❤️.

    Costumer service was superb!!!

    My experience at Formality Bridal was so positive!!! Heather was incredible! She was personable, welcoming, comfortable to be around, and was SO helpful with taking the dresses off the hangers, getting them ready for me to put on, and putting them back on hangers/getting them out of the way. She was also very knowledgeable about what they had in store and was encouraging, honest, ATTENTIVE, genuine, and made me feel beautiful in the dresses I tried on! I highly recommend Formality Bridal if you're looking for a non-stressful and pleasant dress-shopping experience!!!
