Waste of time. – This my second appointment ever. I arrived about 10 minutes early and they asked me to fill out a form and wait. That's fine I know I was early I'll wait my turn. My consultant greeted me and took me into a room to start trying on dresses. She did a good job of finding the shape I wanted but that's about it. I don't think a $3,000 budget is modest, but she did. I may have put on 6 or 7 gowns before she said "let me know if you want to come back". My appointment lasted maybe 40 minutes.

Should have gone to David's Bridal – Don't go here unless you have a lot of time, money, and emotional energy to waste--if you are planning a wedding, you probably don't. I went to the Bridal Garden because they carried the dress I was looking for and ultimately bought. I did have a very nice experience with my bridal consultant, Diana, who was kind and honest about my the dresses I tried on. I bought the first dress I tried on there, although Diana put me in at least 8 others to ease my mind. First mistake, I was told to or... read more

Wonderful Store with one drawback – I had a fantastic experience at the Bridal Garden. I had fallen in love with a dress I saw at Saks in NY at a trunk show and the Bridal Garden was able to track it down for me and work VERY generously with me on the price (plus avoiding NY sales tax!). They have a beautiful selection and a great sales team (Danielle and Marry Ellen are the best!). For those who commented that the sales staff was "snotty", I sincerely disagree. I never saw anyone be rude to a customer any of the times I wen... read more

high-class high-quality store! – I'm in love with my dress and I have Danielle at the Bridal Garden to thank for this! I came from NYC to buy my dress and I'm really thankful I did. Same dresses as Kleinfeld's but much better prices. They are willing to work with any price you are quoted for a dress from other stores which makes it worth the trip! The staff couldn't have been friendlier. Compliments when you come out in each gown, and nobody is breathing down your neck trying to make a sale. I let Danielle pick out dresses f... read more

Do Not Go Here – DO NOT SHOP HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BUY AN EXPENSIVE GOWN,HAVE IT BUTCHERED BY ALTERATIONS AND HAVE NO RECOURSE FOR THE DAMAGE DONE. THEY ARE NOT NICE HERE,ARE EXTREMELY UNFRIENDLY,CONDESCENDING AND THE ALTERATIONS DEPARTMENT HAS NO IDEA WHAT THEY'RE DOING: Purchased gown a year before the wedding. Called the store 8 months after my purchase to check the status of the gown. They didn't know. They called back later that day and said it JUST came in (I since found out from the manager it arrived 6 weeks prior ... read more

Another vote for rude and snobby – I've had two separate experiences here - both of which were horrible. The first is when I was looking for a bridal gown. I must've waited an eternity for someone, anyone, to acknowledge that I was standing there. The consultants looked me up and down a few times but not one of them offered to help (this probably had to do with the fact that I didn't look like I just walked out of a high priced salon, like their other customers). Needless to say, I walked out. Although I swore I would never ... read more

Do Not Go Here – For a bridesmaid dress, they took my measurements and ordered a size too small (and I lost weight between the order and the arrival). The zipper wouldn't go up when it came in, too late to order another dress. So they "fixed" it, by exposing the different colored zipper and shredding the fabric around it. I took it to my tailor, because my boobs won't fit in the dress. She said she blanched when she saw the Bridal Garden bag, because in her experience that meant there was a disaster lurking underneath it. Sh... read more

Stay Away!! – Well, I had heard of all the horrible things about bridal garden, but decided to check it out anyway to see for myself. Boy people were right. They only care about the amount of $$ you are willing to throw down. When I told her I liked plain dresses, she pulled one out, and when I didn't like it on, she yelled at me and said "you said plain and this is plain, what is the problem". The problem was it didn't make me feel pretty and I wanted to try on more dresses! So rude! Also, stay away from the women who dress... read more

BRIDES WORST NIGHTMARE!! GO ELSEWHERE! – I had a TERRIBLE experience at the bridal garden. i ordered a designer gown that was supposed to be custom ordered to fit me. I am a size 00 and they ordered me a six. it was ENORMOOUS! they did not order a "hollow to hem" size dress which is the normal protocol. The seamstress was completely clueless! The hem of my dress was UNEVEN- parts dragged on the floor and other parts were too high! the lace wasapplied to the bottom unevenly. The bust was way too big and after 3 fittings - sti... read more
