I honestly left this market a bit confused. Did I enjoy my experience? I'm not sure... after some…read morethought I settled with the fact that although this market is not for me, I appreciate it for what it is, and the incredible amount of effort put into making it what it is. So first things first, this market is HUGE! Festival-like huge. Here's what they claim: "The #1 review we receive from shoppers at Big Top Events is, "We had SO much fun!". It is our pleasure to offer a wide selection exhibitors to bring the very best in boutique clothing, accessories, shoes, home decor, furniture, gourmet food, dips, sauces, art, yard decorations, holiday items and so much more! There is a little bit of everything and something for everyone! Prices range from as little as $5 and up to $2,000 and beyond. Our market is 50% hand made items and 50% manufactured items. 100% of Exhibitors are small business owners, shopping with us puts money directly into the local community. 90% of Exhibitors are based here in the Lone Star State, others travel from Oklahoma, New Mexico, Louisianan, Oklahoma and Arkansas!" Here's what I experienced: *they offer a 4 story complimentary parking garage & plenty of complimentary street parking options *it is certainly true that leashed dogs are welcome, but apparently so are lemurs & their babies...true story *they truly offer is a bit of everything, and all price points are offered...but I wasn't prepared for some of the offerings, and I personally was unaware that many businesses are not locally based. For example, it was nice to see Rodeo food, unique boutiques, and handmade ink pens. I was not expecting independent consultant MLM representation, non Native peoples selling dream catchers, folks dropshipping items, and droves on droves of repeat items like freeze dried treats and handmade tumblers. I didn't find anyone selling fruit or produce, and very few natural products. The level of repetition had me questioning the vendor selection criteria. Nevertheless, if I visited with the goal of enjoying a day with friends, families, or the kids, this would be a great market to do so. I appreciate the Port-a-potties in multiple areas & plenty of activities for the kids in the main square (bouncy houses, playground slide). Even if it was like 90 degrees under the actual big top, there's plenty of food and alcohol to go around, and plenty of things to look at, touch, and sample to kill a few hours and support local(ish). I may be the outliar here, bc others seemed to be enjoying themselves. It's a 3.5 from me as a solo Market goer on a mission to find quality local and unique goods, but I certainly welcome everyone to go out and experience this market atleast once!

The inside of the store is beautiful! It's so well displayed, lots of bright colors, and feels like a fairy tail! I tried on a dress and needed a larger size, without hesitation the employee offered to check the mannequin in the window. I decided to look for another size online once I got home and found a dress I liked! I saw a coupon of you used the app, but the coupon wasn't working so I reached out on Instagram. They were quick to respond, polite, and helped me solve my issue! Also, it shipped in hours, which is an insanely fast turn around. Amazing customer service and beautifully chosen clothes to carry! This store is such a joy to work with!
