Clarice's Bridal Fashions

d was overall great. Highly recommend!

t as I could. She made me feel beautiful and like a bride. I can’t recommend Katie or Clarices enough!

n November 2021. Although the sample dress (size 12) was a perfect fit, the sales associate INSISTED that I needed to order a size smaller (size 10). Knowing how small wedding dresses run, I was absolutely terrified to order a dress that small (I’m a street size 8, and there was no way a size 10 wedding dress could ever fit me). I called the next day to ask if Clarice’s could order the 12 for me instead. The associate told me absolutely not. She stated, “You WILL fit into a size 10 by the time the dress arrives.” Panicked, I began working out daily and skipping as many meals as I could without passing out. I actually lost several pounds in the process, and my friends and family were quite worried about my habits. So imagine my dismay when (5 months later) I entered Clarice’s for my first fitting only to find that the size 10 was not only too small, but had been cut almost another full size too small by the manufacturer. In the dressing room, I mistakenly told the incredibly rude sales associate that I knew this would happen. She waltzed me out in front of my mother and proclaimed, “She said she knew this would happen. She’s gained a lot of weight.” Beware. Apparently anything you say in the dressing room can - and certainly will - be used against you. She then proceeded to whip out her laptop and said I gained a whopping 5 inches in my waist. When we told her this was impossible, as all my clothes would no longer fit me had I gained 5 inches in my waist, she said, “Well, all tape measures are different!” Certainly not what I learned back in grade school, but the sales team kept trying mercilessly to put the blame on me as I cried, not from joy, but pure anger at having one of the most special moments of my life absolutely ruined. Finally they sold me the sample, which thank God, they still had, for about 50% off. A complete refund and an apology would have gone much further. Clarice’s absolutely ruined my wedding dress experience, and it is something I’ll never get back. If you want to be gas-lighted by a bridal salon, absolutely book here! Oh! And if you do, make sure you bring your own tape measure! They’re all different, you know!

y guests and I were just impressed with the professionalism and happy light spirit of the boutique. We go back next month to look at bridesmaid dresses, and we can't wait to work with Moriah again!

ses from you were also so stunning, and their try-on day was so easy and seamless. I also thank you for providing me with a list of recommended alterations shops that led me to my seamstress.

all what I was looking for. She listened to what I liked & didn’t like, and she pulled the most perfect dress that ended up being the one!!! Buying a wedding dress can be overwhelming but she made it sooooo fun! I cannot wait to go back & pick up my dress in the fall!

ble! I ended up with a dress that I would not have pulled for myself but it looked absolutely stunning!

ankful for Shannon for helping me find the perfect one!

mother-of-the-bride dress there... and each time it was a great experience!

ve her a huge task, find me a dress off the rack in my small budget, because hey I'm getting married in three months! She was amazing. She listened to me and was able to select several gowns that met my needs. I knew in my heart when I tried on my Mori Lee that it wasTHE ONE. However I had two other appointments. I went to those stores, and nothing compared. I should've listened, to my heart and numerous friends, BUY THE DRESS FROM CLARICES, THEY'RE THE BEST. I returned the same day and said YES to my dress. They gave me great recommendations for alterations too. Fast forward a few weeks, and I need a hairpiece. This time I didn't even bother going or looking anywhere else, I made my appointment with Kelly. We found the most amazing hairpiece to complete my outfit. These ladies are amazing, even more so during the Covid pandemic. Fast forward a "few" uears and I can tell you I'll be getting my Mother of the bride outfit here, wedding anniversary dress etc. You have a client for life!

ues after losing quite a bit of weight and she made me feel so comfortable and beautiful! I can't recommend them enough!

mall but detailed alterations. There is also history here as my mom found her dress here :) Highly recommend!

m. I must have tried on 12 gowns! I finally decided on a gown that I loved after about 1.5 hours. My consultant takes the dress to gather the details and comes back to tell me that I tried on a plus size gown.. She goes on to explain that she doesn’t know if I can get it in a regular size. We both go up front where she can ask a manager. The manager informs us that no, the designer didn’t make that design in regular sizes and won’t make it in regular sizes either. So after all this time trying on all these dresses and then to decide on “the one” to be told it doesn’t come in any size close to mine was pretty heartbreaking!! They offered an appointment with their store seamstress, as once you find the dress, you’re on your own for alterations but I declined. What this means is that I will now have to pay extra for the additional material to be removed. I didn’t think it was worth any future hassle to deal with their poor organization. I enjoyed working with my consultant, she was helpful. Just wish she was more mindful of the dresses she picks out for the brides so that it doesn’t lead to such disappointment. I did share this feedback online per their request, but got no response. My impression is that they’re busy enough that they don’t need to worry about one off scenarios of unhappy customers.

ersonalized experience you get at Clarice's!

I'd recommend any bride-to-be to check out Clarice's and try to get Jackie!
