The young ladies that work there are very helpful and even helped her lace up dresses while trying them on. I love that they carried the dresses to the fitting room so we could look at dresses.

The owner was there and very helpful in making sure my daughter got the right size. The cost of most of the dresses is around 3-6 hundred from what I saw. The quality of the dresses were nicer than many other stores we visited. The brand of the dress we purchased was Jovani.

Which is new for me, as I'm a new cancer survivor. When I went to pick up my dress, EXTREMELY excited, it was too small, I was told it was an easy fix, they could just put in a corset, which would change the dress. Disappointed, but seeing no other option, I took my dress to be altered, and they cannot put in a corset, they will have to change the whole dress! BTW.. 6in off! That's a huge difference! You need to either train your staff, to measure correctly, because as customers we put that faith and trust in you, or when YOUR TEAM MAKES A MISTAKE, you right it!

Let me start this off by saying that I am not someone who writes a lot of reviews but I had such a…read morebad experience that I felt the need to warn any other brides from feeling as defeated in their bridal appointment as I did. My appointment was this past Saturday. My experience at this bridal store was horrible. When myself and my party entered, we were told to pull some dresses that we liked while we waited for my consultant. My consultant told my party to "calm down" with all the picking after they chose 3 dresses and never introduced herself to my family. My consultant at didn't seem like she was listening to any of my preferences. The situation seemed like she was choosing dresses that she liked. Throughout the appointment, she continued to pull dresses that were, over budget, the wrong material ( she kept pulling dresses with so much tulle) and overall not my style that we discussed. Every dress she pulled was either 6 sizes too large or 4 too small so I was unable to get an accurate depiction of what the dress was going to look like on myself. I am not a picky person but it truly was awful. Every critique I had about the dress, was followed by her saying that it could be fixed with a strap or removal of beads, or a completley changing the structure of the dress or some other very expensive alteration. While I did appreciate her trying to fix the problem, she never differentiated from the style of dress that she pulled ( that were huge, heavy and had about 15 layers of tulle). My consultant never helped me by adjusting any of the dresses, ( she also never helped me put any of them on either). She never helped fluff the train or hold it so I could walk. My future mother in law had me attempt to tuck the material between my legs to see what the dress could look like on her knees. Her reaction to my family having to help was was very aloof. She also didn't seem like she had a very good knowledge of the inventory of the store. She would leave me on the stage in a dress that was very uncomfortable for several minutes while looking for "just the dress" and return with the exact same style that i had told her I didn't want. I stated what I wanted several times to her. I didn't even leave the dressing room to show my party a few of the dresses and she would argue with me. The last and perhaps the largest issue I had was that all of the dresses either myself or my guests chose were continuously intentionally placed to the back of the rack to try on by her. When my mother and cousin moved them to the front, she moved them to the back again and seemed annoyed. When my mom asked " can we please see her in this dress?" after about the 9th dress that I didn't like , my mom was ignored and was given a sour attitude. This was my second bridal appointment ever trying on a wedding dresses and I can tell you that if I hadn't had such a positive experience at the shop i had been to earlier in the day, I would have been in tears and this would have ruined the bridal dress experience. I'm writing this review based off my terrible experience in the hopes that the shop management will read it and make some major changes in how they treat their customers.

I was terrified and walked into my appointment already feeling defeated and like I would have to just settle for anything that fit. Sharon, the owner, worked with me directly. When I walked in, I was surprised to see that she had an entire rack filled with beautifully diverse dresses of all different shapes and styles that were in my size. I tried on many different dresses and she was so professional, compassionate and kind to me. She never once made me feel like I would have to settle for simplicity because of my size, instead she guaranteed me that we would work together until I found my dream dress, and she did just that. She treated me and my family with such respect, and made me feel so beautiful and special, and she even helped me come out of my shell and have a bit of fun! She threw accessories and creativity at me with each dress to show me that any of the dresses can be made even more unique with some fun additions. My dress is more beautiful than I ever could have hoped for, and I absolutely cannot wait to marry my best friend wearing it. I am beyond thankful and proud to now be a Tiffany's Bride!

Lex's of Carytown was my very first bridal appointment, and overall, it was a solid experience…read more They had a decent selection of gowns, and their dressing room process was by far my favorite of all the places I visited. I was able to try on a lot of dresses in a short amount of time thanks to how efficient and respectful they were. Each dress was placed in my fitting room already unzipped, so I could easily slip it on, and a stylist would come in just to zip it up. It was such a modest and comfortable process, and I really appreciated that. That said, I didn't experience much interaction or guidance from my stylist. Maybe it was because I had two people with me to talk through things, but I don't recall receiving any input, suggestions, or just general information from the staff. I also wasn't offered help picking dresses or narrowing things down by budget. I can't speak to prices overall, as I wasn't really focused on that during my visit. In hindsight, since it was my first stop, I may have unintentionally taken more of a "browse everything" approach. While I'm grateful for the chance to try on so many options here, the lack of personal connection ultimately made me glad I didn't find my dress at Lex's. I found much more warmth, support, and guidance at the shop where I said yes.
