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.
