I went to the David's Bridal in Tonawanda, it was very busy but the sales girl I had (even thou she had another bride as well) was more than helpful. I was having a hard time with colour choices since I wanted to match the guys shirt with the dresses. She had no problem running around getting the different colours and comparing them to the shirt that I brought. I did buy anything at that time as it was very early in my planning process. Now that I am ready to buy the dress for the BM its no longer available in the colour that we need. I have also gone to Bridal and Beyond in Toronto and found that experience no different than the one at Davids, so I guess it just depends on the day and the sales girl! I think I read somewhere that the store is suppose to open March 2011? Thats cutting it a little to close, so I am going to have to start my search all over again
