I love love love the dress. I'm so glad I went the distance to try it on in the first place. My experience at David's Bridal was crappy though so I won't be going there for anything else.

What was wrong with David's Bridal?

BTW, your dress is beautiful and it really shows off a nice figure and small waist!

I don't think that there is anything wrong with David's Bridal, I just think that they are such a huge corporation that customer service can kind of be kind of lacking. They don't need the positive word of mouth and recommendations that smaller bridal boutiques need, and I think that comes across with their less than positive attitudes. The other problem that I have seen is that because there are SO many stores (and I'm not sure how their franchises work) I think one store might tell you one thing that may apply to their store, but doesn't necessarily mean that it applies to all stores. My SIL got her wedding dress and we got our bridesmaid dresses from a David's Bridal, we are in AZ but the wedding was in MI. The store in AZ told us that it would not be a problem that we could bring her dress to any David's Bridal a day or two before the wedding (no appointment needed) and have it steamed. Turns out that is not the policy in all stores, and she needed an appointment, blah, blah, blah - anyway, it turned into a huge ordeal. Should she have called the store in MI to confirm this was their policy, maybe, but at the end of the day she was assured something that just wasn't true.

Oh ok, I totally understand what you mean by that.  It's good to know though that since they are a big franchise, you might not be getting the same service as you would elsewhere.  I didn't really even think about that.  That's a shame.

That's pretty much it. It felt like a retail store where no one really cares if you're there or not. I went to pick up my dress and the girl at the cash desk was rude and pretty much just handed my dress to me. I had to ask to try it on. And then while I was trying it on, three different people asked if I needed alterations. It felt like because I had already bought my dress, no one cared to be pleasant to me, and then the only time the staff talked to me was to try and get more money from me. This is just my experience of course.

this is my dress... I cannot wait for it to come in and try it on again (just a few weeks!)
