The shop no longer uses this supplier and after reading reviews of that company, I doubted my dress would arrive on time. Alterations would be necessary. The owner of the shop was very understanding and did her best to try and resolve but the supplier was simply not cooperative. The owner gave me a full refund as I requested. While this may not have turned out the way I planned, I was more than pleased with the service. This small shop has a beautiful selection of dresses for brides and other formal occasions and I would highly recommend them.

The stylist that I worked with was patient and easy to talk to. She was understanding and sweet when I voiced my concerns about finding a dress for my body type, and I never felt pressured to make a purchase. The selection of dresses was great. I didn't see many dresses that looked overly traditional or boring, which were things I wanted to avoid. Their dresses are bohemian but also elegant and beautiful. In the end I found a dress that I couldn't live with out!

The store itself has a multitude of choices but not to overwhelm. Displayed with space and grace by silhouette it was a pleasure to glance through.

She gave me her contact information and guided me on when to reach out to organize the alteration appointment. And as a new bride it was so helpful to have some guidance. When it was time to reach out to Anna, she provided me with further communication to help prepare her and I for the appointment and we arranged a time that worked for both of us. At the appointment, when she was drowning in fabric and a sea of crinoline, I then realized how truly talented she is. She worked so tirelessly to get my dress pinned as quickly as she could. I really enjoyed being able to play dress up and had fun getting to know each other. And when I was able to pick up my dress a week later,it fit like a dream! It was perfect and the bustle was so cool! I was able to dance the night away with a strapless ballgown, which seemed like an impossible task before Anna got ahold of it. I also had an emergency the night before my wedding. I thought it was a good idea to steam my dress after my rehersal dinner. After a few minutes with it, I realized there were spots of hot pink lipstick at the bottom. I guess there were remnants still on me and they found there way to ruin my evening. I was in such a panick and all I thought was, who knows wedding dresses and that's when I reached out to Anna at midnight and after a stressful night, she responded first thing at 6 am. She saved me and knew exactly what to do! She's an angel! I would highly recommend Anna to everyone! She's so sweet and wonderful to work with. Thank you for being apart of my fairytale wedding!!

I looked for dresses spring of 2014. By the time I had actually arrived at Needlemans, I was exhausted and sick of looking for a dress. I had a plethora of terrible experiences at bridal shops all over the place, and I was about ready to throw in the towel! The staff at Needlemans was so helpful, encouraging, and understanding of my frustrations. They were very considerate and listened to my description of what I wanted and was looking for. It did not take long for them to get me into a dress and to find the perfect one for me. I said yes to the dress at Needlemans and it took LESS than 2 hrs from start to finish. The price was great, they even gave me a discount and offered to take a quarter of the payment upfront, and the rest later. I did not need alterations when my dress came in, but they also offered alterations upfront. It was so great to go in, and to be treated not only like a customer, but like a queen! I still have my dress, and I'll never be able to look at it and not think of how Needlemans assisted me, and all of the wedding memories it holds. Thank you Needlemans!

My daughters went in to try dresses for my oldest wedding. They walked in without an appointment…read more She picked out two dresses there she really liked. Both dresses were 200. or more. The Woman working wrote down the two style numbers of the dresses Because she knew my daughter wanted to bring the girls back to try them on. She did call to see if she could set up an appointment. The owner was rude and said it is Prom season so they would have to pay to use the two fitting rooms. The money would go toward the dresses When she bought them. My daughter said I was just there and we did not have to pay to use a fitting room. He mentioned on the phone that he was not in business to keep the internet going. She was going in with the girls to have them try on the two dresses and see which one they liked better of the two. That would be at least 800. in his pocket. She decided they would all go together without an appointment. They showed up shortly after opening. The Owner asked them if they had an appointment when they said no he said they could come back at 3:00 and they had to pay for the fitting room. He again mentioned it is Prime Prom season. So if you go to look at prom dresses you do not have to pay for a fitting room. If you go to try on Bridesmaids dresses you do? When they refused to pay to have an appointment the Owner went off on them about how he is not in the business to support the internet. The five girls left without trying anything on. I called Mark going to say one of those girls was here from Texas. He immediately cut me off and said " you don't know the whole story. Have a good day." He hung up the phone on me. Again these girls were in fact going to go in and pick one of the two dresses my daughter really liked there. They had full intentions of buying there. Thanks to Mark's unprofessional manners they did end up going online and found different dresses that look as beautiful and cost less. He in fact lost 800.+ because he was straight up rude!

I get that some places are short staffed, but they probably shouldn't book appointments things if they're not gonna be available to help at said appointment time. Not to mention, they didn't offer a partial refund at least for the poor service. Giving this 2 stars though cause they had 18 waters to hold us over for the wait time.

Though the staff at David's Bridal were helpful and friendly when selecting a dress, once the dress arrived and had issues, we were very frustrated with their response and how they dismissed our concerns. We were not treated like valued customers. Also, as others have mentioned in Yelp reviews, the dress that arrived was smaller than the one of the same size that fit in the store. They said the store dress was stretched due to others trying it on. They should have mentioned that the new dress will be smaller. We had to return several times to try to get a good dress with no issues. Eventually we gave up and left with a dress we were unhappy with.

After arriving Lisa had forgotten about my dress. A few other times she cancelled appointments with all sort of excuses. Finally after a couple months I was able to get my dress back and it was a bit too short. I discovered at the wedding that Lisa just left the threads hanging which then got caught in my shoe pulling the thread out of the hem. After paying her $85 for a hem, I now need to restitch the hem on this dress myself. I would not recommend this business to anyone.

Brides, BEWARE - This Seamstress Will Ruin Your Experience…read more If I could give -100 stars, I would. This seamstress caused me more stress, tears, and frustration than I thought possible during what was supposed to be the happiest time of my life. She was completely unprofessional, unreliable, and downright dishonest. She took me on as a client and assured me my dress would be ready well before the wedding. It wasn't. I didn't receive my dress until the day before my wedding--a nightmare no bride should ever face. On multiple occasions, after I had already taken time off work and was getting ready to drive an hour to meet her, she would cancel last-minute. Once, I wasn't even contacted--I showed up with my fiancé and child in the car, only to be told she and the bridal shop had "been trying to reach me all day." It was 5 PM. My phone had zero missed calls. She blatantly lied. To make matters worse, she told the boutique owner she had already informed me of the cancellation--which she hadn't. When I expressed how stressed I was, her response? "I have nine other dresses to do." If you can't handle the work, don't take on brides who are trusting you with something so meaningful. Her lack of transparency, last-minute cancellations, and rude attitude turned what should've been an exciting process into a complete emotional rollercoaster. Brides deserve better. Find someone who will treat your dress--and you--with the care, respect, and honesty you deserve. DO NOT recommend. -0000000/10. Lisa do better. This was embarrassing to everyone around you, BUT YOU. -- A bride who deserved better.
