I went to pick up my wedding dress at 3pm the day before my Saturday wedding, only to find that the…read morecleaner had gotten black grease on the neckline of my natural silk dress. Like, a lot of grease. It was bad. Needless to say, I was devastated. Mirror Pond (not the cleaner that had ruined it) kindly offered to try to remove the stain that evening, but after trying for an hour or two, they still couldn't get the black stain out. They called in an amazing seamstress (Jeani) who whisked me away to her shop above Cordially Invited. At this point, it was about 7:00pm on the Friday before a holiday weekend. Every other bridal and alterations shop had turned us away. Things got even better when Jeani invited Kelly, from Cordially Invited upstairs. ***Sidenote: Now, I am just going to say it - looking at Cordially Invited from the outside, it looks super "old Bend" and I would NEVER EVER have imagined the cute and fashionable things inside. I am sort of a jaded skeptic - and it surprised me. GO INSIDE. You will be thrilled by everything they have! In retrospect, I probably should have shopped for my dress there - though I really live in Portland. Ok, moving on... *** Jeani successfully altered the dress to hide the stain, but the entire right side of the bodice looked funny. Kelly immediately identified that it needed to be reshaped, and the pleats reset - since all the stain removal tactics had ruined the structure. Kelly offered to spend the evening pressing my dress and said she would deliver it to my house the morning of the wedding. I never doubted her for a second and was so grateful for her help. She was wonderful and the dress turned out MARVELOUS. I don't doubt that if I'd had to purchase a dress last minute, she would have been able to help me as well. Kelly and Jeani seriously saved my wedding, and I didn't even purchase my dress from them.

I went here a few years ago when I had my wedding, I thought maybe we had just hit them on a bad…read moreday but after multiple people I know have gone here I only find fitting that I leave a review and to warn you this LOUSY dress shop. For starters all the pants for my groomsmen were entirely too big, the vests I ordered were the WRONG colors so we had to return them which caused us to not have enough vests due to their error. Were not helpful with the fact I had to travel 2.5 hours one way due to them taking personal days so all of the wedding parties attire was picked up less than 24 hours before the actual ceremony. The costs of alterations were outrageous for shoddy work at best. HEED MY WARNING!!! NEVER GO HERE!

Such a cute little store with a variety of local gifts! I didn't catch the name of the lady working…read morethere (I believe she is the owner of the store the way we were conversing) but she was so friendly and passionate about her business! I had no intention of making any purchases and just wanted to take a look around, but as I got talking with her I just had to buy something! We were looking at some of the jewelry that one of the locals sells in her shop, and she was describing all of the different stones and their purposes... I forgot the name of the bracelet I ended up purchasing, but it had to do with career path. I have recently been thinking about a new career opportunity so I thought it seemed fitting! Lovely shop and a friendly face! Knows her stuff and can answer any question about any of the products!

I have shopped here and it's fine. However, I took in some items for resale. Not worth the time…read more First I needed an appointment, no problem, but then I'm told to leave the items and come back another day for my money. Again, no problem. I was paid about 10% of retail value, and was told if I didn't come back the very next day for the cash I would only get store credit. The two trips weren't worth the amount I was given. It's easier (and kinder) to donate.

We stopped in during a stroll through Sisters because my daughter wanted to go in…read more The woman at the counter was so beyond lovely. She realized that my 13 year old daughter was VERY interested in gems and knowledge and history and science!! So she spent quite a bit of time explaining the stories and history with some gems to us while my daughter hung on her every word. There were some truly magnificent gems there that I'd never seen or heard of. And the same for my daughter. If my daughter had a rich man to take her shopping she would have spent a fortune in here. The necklace she really loved was over $2000 but they aren't called "precious" gems for nothing!!! If you're in town and like gems and beautiful things then The Jewel is a MUST. We just need to make sure we save up to come back!!

i've been a fan of these candles since the beginning of covid lockdown when we've all been spending…read morea lot more time inside. i bought two online and realized how lovely they burned and how nicely their individual scents permeated the room but didn't overpower it. since my initial order i've placed two more orders, the most recent in mid november when they offered a generous online discount. when my candles arrived there'd been a mistake in which i got two of the same scent instead of just one. i emailed to let the company know it had been shipped incorrectly and got an immediate response not to mention the correctly scented candle in the mail a couple of days later. any company that cares enough to make things right, that communicates with their customers and uses quality ingredients has my business and allegiance. the only problem is i can't decide which scent is my favorite so i keep buying multiple candles at a time so i'm assured i'll make it through the dark days of this upcoming quarantine winter with guaranteed broken top aromatherapy to brighten the mood. so glad i discovered them and so hopeful they find continued success during these difficult times for small businesses.

Maybe they are cutting corners or not doing quality check but they are not worth it anymore. I used to buy 50 plus throughout the year for myself & gifts but no more. i thought maybe it was just me but everyone that smells them now agrees with me. They are completely missing any scents & I had 10-15 different scents that were my favorite. My family & friends loved them to but no more. At $25 a pop thats not cheap. That is $1250 a year you wont be getting from me anymore. Get it together & go back to how you used to make them. SUPER DISAPPOINTING. Going back to Anthropology for my candles. They keep their standards high!!!
