Such a fantastic locally owned business. I have had the pleasure of coming in here on a few…read moreoccasions for various reasons. The first time I came here was to help my grandmother get supplies to make a christening gown for my daughter. The people in here are so friendly and helpful and produce some amazing looking items. My wife and I were gifted a smocking class by family and gave us a different experience with them than what you normally have with a retail store. And yes, I did take a smocking class... and it was a blast! The teacher really helped us learned the strategies and was great about it when we made mistakes (which is bound to happen). It was a fun experience that we have not utilized the benefits of to its fullest potential. Anything else we have needed, the staff here has given great assistance. Any time we need fabric or have questions, the Smocking Bird is our go-to place to visit.

There are many reasons for this 1 star- 1. When I walked in…read moreto drop off my bridesmaid dress, the woman said, "Oh what high school do you go to?" And I informed her that I had a college degree and was not going to prom. 2. They had my dress for 3 weeks. 3. They never called to tell me my dress was ready like they said they would. 4. When I went to pick it up and tried it on, the straps weren't taken up enough, but with it being the week of the wedding, I have to deal with it. 5. She initially wanted to charge me $100!!! There was never an estimate given, and she said that was my fault because I never asked how much it would cost. 6. I ended up paying $80. This place is a rip off, and instead of owning up to anything, the woman blamed me for not asking for an estimate. This was a very expensive learning experience for me, and I will never go back to this place.

Customer service here is terrible. Would not recommend this store based on personal experience. I…read moreeven tried to give them another chance, but I was treated as if I were an inconvenience. The salesmen are rude, inconsiderate, and arrogant. They make you feel as if you are beneath them. The front receptionist is awkwardly fake and overly nice to the extent of it being oddly uncomfortable.

The store is beautifully curated, welcoming, and such a fun place to shop! However, what truly sets it apart is the staff. Every time I go, I meet someone who makes my day better.

They are kind, knowledgeable, and go above and beyond to make the experience special every single time.
