She studied at FIT in NYC and has an unparalleled ability to tailor and redesign a dress to flatter the body type of the client. Yris was a pleasure to work with. I never felt rushed and she always gave her undivided attention. I was impressed with the final product as well as the price... very reasonably priced, high quality gowns. She even advised me as to how to style my hair as well as what jewelry/accessories to pair with the gown.

My little sister bought her wedding dress at Melissa's, and accordingly, we all got our bridesmaids…read moredresses from the same shop. The staff at Melissa's is super friendly, helpful, organized and on-point. No misplaced orders and dresses always delivered in a timely fashion. They're all more than willing to help and offer suggestions with fittings, etc. They made me feel like a princess while trying on bridesmaids dresses, so I can only imagine how great they make the brides feel when they're trying on wedding gowns. At the same time, Melissa and her crew were very frank with me, and if something didn't look good, they told me so (nicely, of course). I got my dress altered elsewhere but hung around with my sister as she got her wedding dress alterations - the seamstress was extremely detail-oriented and thorough. And full of great stories! I would recommend Melissa's to any locals on the hunt for wedding, bridesmaid or homecoming/prom dresses!!

I found Melissa's Bridal and Formal Fantasy while looking for a dress for the Navy submarine ball…read more When I walked in, I could feel that Melissa is very friendly and down-to-earth. I had stopped by briefly a week earlier to check out the selection and let her know what kind of gown I need. When I came in to start my search, she had already put a few dresses aside for me that fit my needs. I really like that she let me look as much as I wanted without bothering me or looking over my shoulder, since I like to do my own thing when I'm shopping. While I tried on gowns, she gave me good honest opinions but was not pushy. Everything felt easy and fun, and Melissa was able to give me a good idea of how in-depth the alterations would be on a given gown. After trying on many gowns I settled on a gorgeous fitted number that is everything I wanted! Melissa could see my positve reaction, and she and her associate both agreed that it was the best one I'd tried. Although the dress is reasonably priced, she let me make payments on it, which works for me since I'm a girl on a budget. I would recommend Melissa's to anyone in need of a dress for any occasion (she carries everything from cute cocktail dresses to fabulous bridal fare). They also have a seamstress on-site to carry out all alterations and they take appointments. Based on my experience, I would say that Melissa's is an asset to the community.

I expected for the bridal stylist to be pushy, mean, and annoyed that I was shopping so late. BUT here comes my AMAZING stylist MaryJo who was so gentle, kind, understanding, and patient with me.

From the moment I walked in for my first appointment to the moment I walked out of my last fitting, everything was perfect !!! And don't get me started on my seamstress, Alcinda ! She is such a talented beautiful soul ! I loved my dress and recommend you don't waste your time anywhere else !

Holy moly! When they advertise as a discount warehouse they really mean it! Such great deals at…read morethis place! I visited the Bridal and Prom Discount Warehouse during my search for the perfect dress and I am really glad that I did. I didn't find my dress here but my experience was one of the best I had bridal gown shopping. All of the gowns here are under $500 and their selection is quite extensive. My group and I spent a good amount of time perusing the rows upon rows of styles in my size range. The two young ladies working that day collected everything we pulled and let us take as much time as we desired picking things out. I really wish I knew their names but the two employees working that day were wonderful. It was like I had two extra girls in my entourage. They were helpful and honest and I really appreciated that. It is irritating to a point to have a consultant simply tell you how gorgeous you look in every dress. These ladies on the other hand were able to read my enthusiasm (or lack thereof) for the gowns I tried on and were able to point out things that worked for my body and those that did not. These girls were genuine and real and their authenticity was well-received with my group. I do wish that I had found my dress here because I would have LOVED to pay under $500 but alas, it was not meant to be. I absolutely recommend checking this place out. You might get lucky and fall in love with something! The dresses were in good condition, some minor defaults here and there that could be corrected during fittings and alterations. The building itself could use a little sprucing up but the dressing and viewing area were comfortable and neat. If you are stopping through Fall River, put this place on your list! No appointment necessary.

I really like this place. It's a decent sized but on the smaller size with tons of dresses. We…read moreoriginally came here for Prom dresses for my sister , which the prim dresses are located downstairs , and the wedding dresses are upstairs. We make our way downstairs with the help of an associate here names Allison. They have a decent amount of dresses all sizes and styles , but since it's a discount store you can find stains and missing beads and stuff but a lot of the dresses are super cute it's just being able to find your style and size. They have 3 racks with more new style fashion , and the other 3 racks were for a bit older fashion. OH and they also have 2 smaller racks of short prim dresses , I'm sorry we were looking at longer prim dresses. The prices are super cheap, I saw dresses from 49.00-200.00. All the dresses my sister looked at were under 100.00, she didn't get anything here because she's still looking around but the one she did like was too small unfortunately. Allison was amazing she helped us as much as possible even with others being in the store as well. This place is super clean , and there's enough space to move around , the racks are packed and the dresses weigh a lot so your arm will hurt HAH! We made our way upstairs my mother insisted I start looking at wedding dresses , I am engaged but this woman is pushing for us to set a date can't you tell HAH, so go make my mother happy I looked at alllllllll the racks in my sizes , so many beautiful dresses , I was in AWE , once again Allison helped me set me and helped me with all my dresses, the one I liked had a terrible rip in the back but she said she would discount it like I said in the beginning it's a discount store so you will find flaws, but it's so worth the trip to check it out. Alexandras boutique owns this place as well and they're down the street. Any-who this place has a 5 lot parking spot it's super tight but it beats having to pay the meters. It's a small house /boutique which is so cute. My only complaint was the parking situation we have a mid-size truck so just a small area to maneuver in the parking lot. This place is great though. Also this place is right off a busy road so it's one car in and one car out at a time , which you block the whole road.

This is a consignment store, but I scored a beautiful, brand-new, lace wedding dress for under $400. TAKE THAT, wedding industry! The owner, Deborah, is really lovely.

Currently, there is also a room dedicated to mother of the bride and bridesmaid dresses, but according to Deb, they are clearing out that inventory and will soon be 100% bridal. In the meantime, there are 75% off sales to be had!

We walked around her salon and found about 5 gowns for me to try on. Appointments are preferred so that Debbie can give you all the attention you deserve and she doesn't fall short on that promise. I ended up having to decide between two beautiful gowns but was able to make my choice with the help of my fiance. The dresses are premium quality and for very fare prices. I would recommend going here first to save yourself the time of going into the very large, sometimes impersonal retail shops. Good luck and happy shopping!!

My family and I were visiting Westerly for one week in the summer from NY. I had already been to…read moretwo different places back home looking for wedding dresses and hadn't found anything that felt right. My mom, sister and I made an appointment for a Saturday morning, and Kayla made us feel right at home right away. She asked me what I had looked at previously, what I liked/ didn't like and what I was looking for. She pulled a few dresses and also let us pull a few dresses and then I tried them all on. She was really helpful in getting me to flesh out what I liked/ didn't like about certain dresses, and helping me trust my instincts. Eventually I found one that made me glow just from putting it on, and she helped me affirm that I had found the one! She even stayed open a little bit later on the night I was coming to pick up the dress as I had hit a bit of traffic on the way. Kayla is amazing and I highly recommend you go to her for all of your special dress occasion needs! (P.S.- Those are my bra straps in the photo and not part of the dress!)

Some are kinda pricey, though. The shop owner/salesperson was extremely professional and knowledgeable. I really liked her.

I have no idea what the hours are. I've gone during times i thought they SHOULD be open. They are not listed and I haven't found a viable website. Otherwise, a great consignment place!
