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.

Decorating a beach house, they've got you covered in the nautical department too. Located next to a cool little Farm Stand/Produce Market which also has some collectibles, and cold beverages.

I was shopping nearby in the heat of August and was denied use of their ladies facilities. I'm in my 70's, use a walker and am on diuretics My ride had left to run errands so I was stuck. The ladies at the Perfect place were not working but preparing for a special sale. I was warmly welcomed even though they were closed and spent some time gathering gifts for friends little ones. My grandchildren are unfortunately too old for this shop. I asked where I could purchase water and was graciously handed a cold water bottle I should have posted this a long time ago but the "other shop" was brought up in conversation--never again! I highly recommend this delightful corner for all newborn, toddler and children's clothing, toys and decor. You can't go wrong. Thanks for the memories

The prices are pretty good, but in this huge warehouse, be prepared to find everything yourself,…read moresince there are almost no employees to assist you on the floor. Check out times are very long here as well...at least they were before they installed self-checkouts, which i refuse to patronize because they put people out of work. I did, however, hear of a proposed bill to require one human employee for every self-checkout in the store, which kind of makes sense to me!

In all honesty, I find the selection of food slightly thinner here than at a big name grocery store. But when I find something, it's always cheaper here. I'll usually get my snack chips or frozen food here. For example, I can get bags of Totino's Pizza Rolls here for $12. They're $18 at Shaw's. I know that sounds silly, but you haven't lived until you've tried deep-fried pizza rolls at 1 AM for a post-drinking snack.
