Some of the problems were obvious and others were hard to pinpoint, but the effect was a mishmash. My daughter called Susan and after several reassuring texts, made an appointment to come into The Wedding Dresser. From the get-go Susan understood what was wrong & how to fix it. Her team went to work. The dress was how it should have been - masterful work, a talented team, and able to pull it all off in record time!

I reached out to them to get a $650 dress slightly adjusted and hemmed. This was not a complicated…read morealteration as I as assured by the professional I ended up hiring (about 2h of work). Susan quoted me over $1200 for this adjustment, and when I said this was more expensive than my dress cost, I received the most unprofessional and rude response and was quite taken aback. "Yes, we pay humans who live and eat and pay rent in the United States, which is very different from the people who made your dress so it is usual that for dresses under $1000 alterations cost more than the dress. Good luck with your hunt." They don't know where I got my dress from, and I'm also someone living in NYC and doing my best. I think people are allowed to charge what they want or think their skill is worth, but I also think the wedding industry has lost their minds. I found an independent professional who did a beautiful job and charged a fair price. I have other dresses to be adjusted until my big day, and had considered saving them if I needed help for my main dress which will be more expensive, but based on this rude and entitled response, I already know to never go back to this business again.

Karen's has been recommended to my by several of my friends who have all had good experiences…read moredealing with her. Apparently many people have horror stories dealing with their invitation vendors, but this seems to be a good pick if you want a hassle free experience. I made an appointment for Sunday and spent almost 2 hours going through binders upon binders of samples. Karen was helpful, but not over bearing and didn't rush me to make a decision. They have a good selection and a decent range in prices as well. A few things that annoyed me: 1) She is not open on Friday evenings or Saturday. She told me she is usually not open on Sundays eigther and that she basically was doing me a favor. I was told to come in on a weekday before 7pm. I'm sorry but what wedding vendor isn't open on at least 1 weekend day? I understand the religious observances thing, but then Sundays she should be open. Its really inconvenient for me to have to rush from work and be stressed about getting there on time. 2) She could have been a little warmer about the whole thing...I was by myself and could have used some input. It's overwhelming enough to have to pick just 1 invitation from a million options, but not having someone offer you their opinion, or at least guide you through the selection process is them not doing their job. To me it seemed like it was more about my budget (which is obviously a big factor), but then show me your favorite's within my suggested price range and tell me what your best sellers are. I understand that invitations are an individualized thing, but if she's been in business for a long time I'm sure she has a lot of experiences dealing with people like me. Overall, good vendor I would suggest using her!

It was very hard to get in touch with Karen and we received our invitations late which caused…read moreawkwardness when we had to ask for RSVP cards back right away and we wanted to do B-list invitations. She pushed for a certain font and style on the invites but when we got our proofs, we ended up just going with our original requests - we had to pay for another proof and it created more delay in getting the final product. The store closed without warning for a week when we expected our invites and we were not warned how long it would take to assemble our invitations. She did make it a priority during the week the store closed to make sure we got our invites. However, when payment was wanted, we were rushed to pay and received no slack for the delay and lack of communication. Wedding planning is a stressful time and vendors that hold your hand instead of treating you like another customer are much more appreciated. Lesson learned is to plan invites very early in the process and expect delays.

​ ​…read more This story started in the fall of 2018 when I was contacted by Kay Wen, the owner of Siizu. (I'm a jewelry designer, my company name is Clouds and Ladders.) Kay asked me if I would sell my jewelry at her store in NYC on consignment. I don't normally sell my jewelry on consignment. However, Kay was very persuasive, claiming that her business was based on ethical, sustainable, and conscientious principles that I abide by for my business. So I agreed to try out having my jewelry on consignment in her SoHo store for a few months. Kay opened a second location of Siizu in Brooklyn at Canal Street Market in November 2018, and I agreed to also consign work at the new store. The shipment of $2,000 worth of jewelry that I sent  for the Brooklyn location was returned to me damaged, with the notation "No Longer at this Address." I contacted Kay - she had moved without providing me the new address.The checks that were supposed to be sent monthly were not coming. When I emailed her I didn't get a response. Finally in March of 2019 Kay responded to my emails, apologizing that she had been in China and would mail the checks she owed, and wanted to know if I could send more jewelry. At this point, I decided it was too stressful to continue working with Siizu. Moving without providing me the address, not sending the payments owed to me, and not responding to emails for weeks at a time were combining to cause me unnecessary stress. Since I live in California, there is no easy way to go to the stores to find out what's happening. Kay let me know that she was busy and having a difficult time keeping up with everything in her business, and that she understood and accepted my decision. I also understood her situation, and let her know I would consider working with her again once she got organized, wishing her luck. Flash forward to September 2019: I was contacted by another jewelry designer who had seen pictures of earrings that Siizu was selling that looked nearly identical to mine. I looked on Kay's Siizu Official Instagram and found that she was selling multiple knock-offs of my work, as well as another designer, Sibelia Buenos Aires. I knew Sibelia's designer because she and I had both participated in a trunk show at SFMOMA in Spring 2019.  I contacted the designer of Sibelia jewelry and she contacted Kay who removed the Sibelia knock-off designs from IG and Siizu's website immediately. However, via the emails sent between me and Kay, Kay did not agree to remove the designs copied from me. She stated that she didn't realize the freelance designer she had hired had copied my work. This was highly suspicious since the descriptions of the earrings on Siizu's website were taken directly from Cloudsandladders.com (see photo). Kay offered to hire me to continue to design her line of jewelry that was copied from me, because she had already "invested money into buying the supplies" and had fired the freelancer for copying my designs. Not only am I already too busy running my own business, I remembered that she was a nightmare to work with: poor communication, didn't pay me on time, and moved without telling me, causing thousands of dollars worth of my jewelry to risk being lost.  Due to these experiences, I decided that working with Kay any further would be a poor business decision. I let her know that, as well as my plan to seek legal counsel to address her egregious behavior if she didn't stop selling the knock-offs of my work. I have yet to receive a response, and as of October 2019, I am seeking the counsel of a lawyer. I'm posting this as a warning for others who may be considering working with Kay/Siizu: If you are a designer, I would be wary of working with Siizu because she may copy your hard work without credit. If you are a retailer, blogger, etc, seeking sustainable, ethical fashions, I would recommend looking elsewhere for a business that truly is ethical and conscientious. If you scratch the surface of her "sustainable" claims, you may be surprised what you find. ​ ​ ​ ​

Never would i have ever thought I'd find "THE" dress in the hidden gem that is DK Bridal & Tuxedo. I've been to David's Bridal, and a tons of other upscale "top of the line" boutiques, most of which tried to force me into a dress I didn't love or had snobby employees, putting it nicely. Natalie from DK Bridal was super patient and took the time to look at all the pictures i had on my Pinterest lol and most importantly to listen and see my vision. None of these are the actual dress I chose, but suffice to say I tried on a few different dresses and with each one she offered her thoughts, but never in an overbearing or obnoxious manner. She treated me with the same dignity as if she were my family or friend of many years which means the world during this process, so thank you for that. Just as I thought I was settling on a dress, the one of my dreams peaked out from behind others and although it wasn't my size, Natalie helped me try it on with excitement and boom just like that she placed an order for it to come in my size, get the show back on the road and check one more thing off my "To Do List!" Before you buy into the hype of all the huge companies and high end boutiques, visit DK Bridal and share you vision, pictures with them and hey even your love story while your at it... you won't be disappointed with their service or gowns!

Due to religious reasons, my arms needed to be covered and my gown was a sweetheart cut. They patiently allowed me to bring in different bolero options to try on with the dress, until I found the perfect one. Not once did they make me feel like I was a bother, having them retrieve my dress from the basement each time until I paid off my gown in full. Diane was a great consultant and patiently helped me choose the right bolero and crown. To top it off, my husband and I switched our wedding date to an earlier one with my gown already being ordered. Everything worked out with me paying a fair rush fee and receiving the gown well before the wedding. No organization is perfect as the day we scheduled for my pick up, my gown wasn't ready (it wasn't yet steamed). I believe he forgot to write it down but it was ready the next day! This was fine as he did say that I should give myself some time for pick up. My Matron of Honor also got her dress here and we loved it. No complaints. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend them.
