    The bridesmaid dress we chose!
    Christina B.

    We spent the weekend oolong for wedding dresses for my friend and bridesmaids dresses for the three bridesmaids. Maybe it's because I didn't know what to expect or because we stopped at a small boutique with very personalized experience before but I was not overly impressed. Our stylist was very sweet but it just a completely different experience than the smaller boutique. Our friend had her appointment for wedding dresses first and we noticed right away that somehow in that huge store that the selection was pretty small. It's a much more comfortable price point and probably more what I could afford if I was the bride, but you could also tell in the quality. The stylist did keep walking away to find other dresses and to put away the "no" dresses so we just ended up clipping some dresses for ourselves. It was nice that she was listening to my friends feedback and trying to locate a dress that maybe doesn't even exist. When it was our turn for bridesmaid dresses, they had us line up and she sized us up and announced our sizes. That part seemed very undignified. Could we not just put our sizes in when we book the appointment so we don't have to announce it to the whole world? They had extremely limited stock for bridesmaid dresses so I think I actually tried on one dress in my size and I couldn't zip the rest so I just had to guess. Our biggest complaint was that there were no mirrors in the dressing rooms. I could really dress myself if I could see what I was doing with all the ties and straps and zippers but I couldn't look at anything without a mirror. The dressing rooms were also super small. They had maybe 30 dressing rooms all lined so it's understandable they couldn't have really large ones. David's Bridal is really designed for a large volume of brides to come through so you will not get a very personalized experience. We did choose our bridesmaids dresses here since we wanted those to be affordable. They have a pretty long lead time so I should receive my dress in November, about 5 months from now. The good news is that we shopped early so that still gives us plenty of time to do alterations. I do plan to get alterations done at David's bridal.

    This location was very helpful! I arrived earlier than my appointment so decided to just brows around. While doing so I could see how all the staff was greeting people as they walked is and helping get ladies setting into rooms and different dresses while maintaining smiles (we all know that can be difficult when it's so busy but they did very well) closer to my appointment they got my checked in and a room set up while the stylist was very attentive to what I was looking for while also suggesting styles that would complement my figure. They were very helpful and patient and made me feel comfortable. Even after I tried on about 10 dresses. We were able to narrow it down to two dresses but sense I had tried on so many I was exhausted. They very kindly saved all the options that I did like so I could review them at home and have them ready for my follow up. After sleeping on it I rebooked an appointment that they were able to get my in so quickly. They were very understanding that I had brought my 5year old son with me and supported the idea. (He is my little helper and the only family I have up here) also they stylist took photos for me so I could share them with my mom who lives in the other side of the country and was unable to attend. A different stylist had seen me the following day but was able to look at my history and pull the dresses I was interested in. She pulled out all the stops from heels to slip to veil, belt, and the gown. She made me feel confident and beautiful. Even had the seamstress come take a look at the dress and answer my questions about bustles and alterations. So of course with everything put together I immediately fell in love with the dress I was leaning towards and didn't even need to bother with the second option, because I knew I had found one. The staff here was very lovely and the gown is made of very wonderful quality fabric so you know exactly what you were getting. I was able to walk out of the store with my dress in hand that day, because they just happen to have the perfect dress in my size. Not to mention the incredible discount I got because I signed up for their free diamond reward program so that saved me a couple of hundred dollars on my dress. And it's free to sign up so I was quite shocked that everybody doesn't do that. I highly recommend signing up for the diamond rewards and going into the location to get the full effect of what they have to offer. With a few slight alterations, needing to be done, I am ready for my big day.

    Reading the previous reviews on this store, is a stark contrast of mine and my family's experience today! So, I must share our magical, fantastic experience is this David's Bridal store today. My sister Dawn is getting married in October 2016. Dawn, my Mother and I decided to go out and look for dresses. Dawn had an idea of what she wanted but I thought it would be a good idea to actually go and have her try on some dresses so she can really get an idea of what she was looking for. She insisted on coming to this Merrillville store. She was the Bride, so she made an appointment earlier in the week and off we went. Allysa (I'm hope I spelled her name correctly) was her consultant and was as pleasant and accommodating from the first "Hello"! She gave my sister a book to look through to get ideas and I asked if we can skip this step and if she could direct us to the plus size dresses (as my sister is a size 18). Didn't want to waste time looking through a book and her finding a dress she couldn't get in her size. She asked Dawn her budget and directed her to the dresses in her sizes as well as those in her size on the clearance rack. To my surprise, we found several possibilities (about 8 dresses) and Allysa patiently took them one by one to the dressing room. My sister had a ball trying on the dresses with Allysa in the room helping her don them all. My sister came out in each dress liking one thing about the dress and not liking another. She even got assistance from one of the other associates who brought out a beautiful lace shrug for a strapless dress (Dawn didn't want so much skin showing. I don't remember the other consultant's name but she had on fabulous tall wedged heeled black boots). As she was just about to settle on a dress that she liked but didn't love, one Todd Macuga appears and all of a sudden Magic happened!! Todd was complimenting Dawn on one of the dresses she had on and begin to help accessorize it. I then showed him the pictures of the other dresses she tried on, he had a few words with her and walked away. Todd came back shortly with a dress that he wanted her to try. I swear he was pacing waiting for her to appear in this dress!! LOL!! My sister came out in that dress (that Todd picked out after only speaking with her for two minutes) and she squealed with delight! She hadn't made a sound in the almost two hours we were there trying on dresses but with this dress, she squealed with delight!! Todd told us "I just needed to get to know her a little better to understand what she wanted." He identified what she liked in all the other dresses and found the perfect dress for her! I had to ask the price as it looked quite expensive. Todd says "It's within her budget". I pressed and asked how much? It was actually a bit under her budget and Dawn squealed again!!! Allysa brought out a bronze bell and handed it to Todd. He gave it to my sister and told her to close her eyes as he was speaking something to her that my mom and I didn't hear. He then asked her does she say "Yes to the Dress"? She yelled "Yes" and rang the bell just like on television!! It was Beautiful, Magical and just something to experience, especially for my sister!! Everyone was so overjoyed and there was so much excitement and enthusiasm in that store about Dawn finding her perfect dress! My sister, mother and I and even Todd and other consultants were teary eyed as we left the store! The experience was more than we ever expected! Thank you Todd, Allysa and the rest of the consultant's in this David's Bridal for making my sister wedding dress shopping experience memorable!

    This is how I received my dress that was shipped from the Merrillville store. Thank you for the care you took taping the box!

    When I tell you this is THE best place to shop in The Region - I am not kidding…read more To explain, let me take you back to August 2023, I was less than a year post partum and had my appointment at SBB with Shannon. I tried on quite a few that I liked but nothing completely wowed me. Until Shannon took it upon herself to pull one for me to try on. It was strapless (which made me uneasy) but she added straps to give it that off the shoulder look I wanted. It was PERFECT. I am not someone who cries but this dress had myself and my group in tears. We purchased it THAT DAY. Fast forward to June of 2024 - I have lost about 80 pounds and get the call that my dress was in. Panic set in but Shannon assured me that it would all be fine. I went to try it on and of course it was about 5 sizes too big. I brought it to my seamstress July 6th for alterations and was told that it may not be doable and it if was it would cost me around $900. (My wedding is October 26th by the way) I gave the store a call simply to find out what the name of their sister store was as I was most likely going to have to get a new dress. Luckily it was Shannon who I spoke with and she was just as upset about the situation as I was. She told me she would call me right back. And she did. With the name and number of a wonderful seamstress who was experienced in this type of work. She also said she could POSSIBLY work something out with the sister store for a trade in for my dress. (That's not something they typically ever do but she would ask!) hey, the worst the owner could say was "no" at this point. So with no "good" option I made an appointment at The One as well as with the experienced seamstress. (Take a look at my review on The One by SBB's page to see how that went.) When I say I was completely BLOWN away by the kindness and generosity I felt by this store and its employees/owners, I mean it. They could have easily said "too bad so sad" about the entire situation but they are REAL people who actually care about their clients. In a world that is so harsh and cruel these days, it's hard to find that. I will recommend SBB to ANYONE that will listen! Thank you Shannon and everyone who made this potentially disastrous situation stress and guilt free. If I could - I would invite them all to the wedding.

    I had a lovely experience. I worked with Shannon and she helped me find the dress of my dreams…read more There were tons of options and something for every price point. She was patient and pulled dresses until I found the one! Definitely recommend for any bride to be!!

After going to several bridal boutiques, I was very discouraged and ready to give up looking for a wedding dress. I am not your typical bride. I did not dream of being a bride since childhood. So to say I did not know where to begin is an understatement. I started by trying all the dresses...that looked like a princess...lots of lace, tulle, etc. to put it practically they looked ridiculous on me and I felt ridiculous. I think my best friend could feel my despair and desperation. She suggested Bridal Solutions. At first look bridal solutions didn't fit my couture desires. The front window look very much like a prom boutique...but hey when all hope is lost you begin to look anywhere, so I decided to give it a shot. How could i find here what I could not find anywhere else? I went in poked around and soon decided this place wasn't for me. I was getting ready to leave when "Dress Momma" handed a dress to me. I took one look and told her, "no." She asked me to try it on a couple of times, but I still refused; finally she said, "you try on. You don't have to buy." She was serious she wasn't going to let me leave without trying on this one dress. To appease "Dress Momma" I tried it on. Wow! I tried it on and it was the one! Classy, sophisticated, no frills or fuss but dynamic all the same. The difference between Bridal solutions and other places is Dress Momma knows what looks good on you, won't waste your time, and provides superior service. After I purchased the dress I lost 3 dress sizes. She then altered the dress at no additional cost, 4 weeks before the wedding! To say I was happy is the understatement of the year.
