I haven't started shopping for dresses just yet, I'm probably going to wait until January to begin (October 2021 wedding). I live in Northern NJ and I don't want to go to the "factory" shops. I prefer to go someplace that's more personal. When we were shopping for my sister's dress last year, we went to a David's Bridal and it was awful. We also went to a few of the more common places near us that we thought would be good, but it was still not a great experience. We eventually found her dress at a mom n' pop shop in PA (Sandra's Boutique) and the place was so nice and everyone was super friendly. Any places like that around Northern NJ/PA area that people recommend?
