Editorial Review for David's Bridal – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
A chic, sleek boutique, it's not. But those willing to look carefully will likely find a big-time bargain. The staff is helpful and knows the merchandise but doesn't provide extensive one-on-one attention or advice. Stores (particularly on weekends) can be swamped with brides-to-be. David's specializes in beaded satin A-lines and simple lace sheaths that just hit the $500 mark. Most labels are tasteful but of medium-quality: Gloria Vanderbilt, Lady Eleanor, Oleg Cassini and the likes.

I made an appt. for a Wed. night at 6:30. I got there about 5:45, I was early and anticipated waiting until 6:30 for assistance. I was happy to browse bridesmaid dresses and wedding dresses while I waited. When I walked in someone said we'll be right with you but I had to wait 20 min. just to be able to say "I'm early but just wanted to let you know that I'm here." A few min. later their 7:00 appt. arrived. At 6:15 they were able to start my appointment. First they wanted me to choose shoes, they had 100 pairs but we couldn't find any in a size 7 and our consultant was no where to be found. When she finally showed back up and we told her she didn't offer to go look or grab me a pair, just shrugged her shoulders and said "I don't know what's going on over there". Then she took me to the dressing room and told me she was going to help another girl in the dressing room next to mine at the same time (the 7:00 appt). Then she kept disappearing, she would help me into a dress then disappear for 10 minutes. It took an hour and a half to try on 6 dresses. I didn't need much time to look at them they were all very poor quality and cheap looking but since I was there I wanted to try them on and get an idea of styles. The consultant would just leave me standing in the dressing room in my underwear for 10-15 minutes at a time saying she was going to pull more dresses then not show up with any. (It appeared that she was helping the 7:00 bride even less then me so I don't know what she was doing) There's not even a bench or a chair in the dressing room. I was literally just standing there in my underwear waiting. She also never asked what style I liked halter, strapless etc. When I tried to tell her she interrupted me and left. Finally the last time she disappeared I decided I had been there long enough and got dressed and waited for her to come back, then looked for her in the dress area and finally ended up walking out. I would never recommend this shop.
Pros: Parking
Cons: Over priced for the quality of the merchandise, poor service, messy store, long waits

There is the option on the registration to ask for your information not to be given out to vendors and to avoid those calls. Ask about that when you get there. As for "Selling the whole package" yes, they do that because they make comission and are trying to make a living as well. Don't get irritated because they're doing their job. You should never have to hang a dress back up on the racks yourself because they do it for you, especially if you leave a dressing room with the clothes in it. If you want the good wedding consultants, ask for Michelle, Krystal and Mary. Don't go in just to try on a bunch of dresses with no intention to buy, however. That's when you get bad service. See if from their point of view-- they deal with weddings all day. They know what they're talking about.
Pros: Consultants who aren't already slammed with 3 other brides
Cons: Return policy: NONE!
