RK Bridal

several dresses and how they looked on me. Ended up getting my veil and an overskirt here as well. Also big props to Juan and the alterations team - they took a dress I felt good in and made it one I felt completely confident and beautiful in. Highly recommend.

ors, Manana was awful. I dreaded every fitting. She didn't listen, was rude, complained about me pointing out issues, and didn't know how to let out a dress lining, which her assistant did with ease. The owner is also not open to hearing complaints and walked away mid sentence when I was telling her about Manana, and when she returned, she didn't seem to be taking anything seriously and made excuses for Manana's behavior. So while it's a good place to get a dress, I could never recommend getting alterations done here.

intment to learn more about which styles you like. CONs: Our sales associate was Lali who was 15-20 minutes to our appointment... We were the first appointment of the day. She did not want to let my mom look through the racks of dresses but I insisted she walk with us. We were the ONLY appointment in the store at that time and my mom was my ONLY guest, there was no reason to make her wait in the corner while we walked around. Lali rushed us through the racks (maybe because she was late?), it felt like we were running at some points. At one point, I stopped to admire a dress I liked and she yelled "You need to follow me! You don't want those!" referring to the dresses I literally wanted to try on. When it came to actually trying the dresses on, she couldn't figure out how to turn on the lights in the fitting room. She wasn't very good at clipping me into dresses so I could see the full picture, AND she left me standing without clothes on for long periods of time while she got the next dress ready. Even if I found my dream dress (which I think I could have, if she let me look at dresses instead of making me run after her in the store), I wouldn't have trusted buying it from her because my experience was so negative.

for me until the day before the wedding knowing I didn't have space in my small NYC apartment

s and was able to get an understanding of my personality and delivered the most exceptional service ever. It’s thanks to her I have the most stunning wedding dress. I’m very self conscious about my body and she picked a dress that made me feel gorgeous. She was so positive and sweet enough to offer a pep talk to help keep my focus on me. BIANCA is a kind, beautiful person and she was a pleasure to work with.

Bridal, we were able to explore the showroom ourselves for a little bit before our appointment, and we could pick out dresses that I wanted to try on. After trying several dresses on, the attendant was able to then learn about my style and preferences, and then she picked out several additional dresses for me to try on. I ended up choosing a dress (Jimmie Huang) that the attendant picked out for me. I loved the dress and (all things relative) it was pretty reasonably priced. The ordering and pickup process was very smooth (1-2 months between ordering and pickup if I remember correctly).

ful styles, but I ended up buying the first dress I tried on! Highly recommend Bianca, she was so professional and warm and made the process so fun for me. I also got my alterations done there and the process was so efficient and everyone was so helpful!

did not feel rushed at all. The store has a great selection and I felt taken care of and valued. Thank you so much Sheryl!

best staff to help me. I am extremely indecisive, but with the help of Nadine looking at my inspiration pictures, the first dress she pulled is now going to be my wedding dress! I didn't feel rushed at all and had such an amazing time that I didn't want to stop trying dresses on! I then went over to look for bridesmaid dresses, and Mary helped me pick out the perfect dresses for my girls! Thank you again RK Bridal

heryl made the perfect choice. The impeccable fit provided by Juan made me look absolutely radiant. However, through the process I was able to exprience Joy and during each fitting because of my attendant Free. Thank you RK Bridal for the part you played in my beautiful love story.

experience as other customers and really wished I went somewhere else. I never write reviews but coming to RK Bridal was not a good experience for such a special occasion. I worked with a consultant, Bianca, and she was not very friendly and seemed very uninterested from the start. When we began I showed her pictures of dresses I had in mind. She picked about 5 dresses that fit the style I had showed her. When I tried each on she didn’t offer any commentary about how I looked, how it fit, how it would pin up, nothing. My family picked out a few dresses but then after about 40 minutes the appointment was over. Maybe I had the wrong idea, but I thought the consultants were experts and would provide more input and possible options that were a little outside the box of what I was thinking. I was also not provided with any information about the purchasing process even though there was 2 dresses I really liked. I have no idea how I could purchase the dress, how many fittings there are, etc. Save the $25 and find somewhere that will provide a warm, helpful, fun environment for your special day!

ed me all the right questions and was very understanding of my tight budget. I fell in love with a dress on my second try on and the rest they say is history. Thank you so much Bianca for helping me find the perfect dress , you rock!

ing. Sheryl made sure to learn the names of everyone I came with and their relationship to me which I found to be so amazingly personable. She immediately asked me my ideas, what I liked and what I didn’t like and got right to work. She brought me 10 dresses and we moved along from there. I eventually (surprisingly) found my dream dress despite being extremely picky. I honestly had no intentions of picking a dress that day and if it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have. Sheryl made me so comfortable and just made me feel like I was chatting with family. I kept telling her how picky and difficult I was and she just took it in stride and worked so well with me. The rest of the staff at RK were also very hospitable and supportive. As my first (and now only) Bridal shopping appointment I was so happy with everything. The shop is clean and sleek and everyone there seems to love working there. The customer service is unmatched and just an overall amazing experience. Thank you to everyone at RK (ESPECIALLY SHERYL) for making my experience top tier!

id attention to me as a whole person and what I liked/didn't like. Since I was open to suggestions, she introduced me to MY dress and the ONE I affectionately call the "Bianca". When she asked how I wanted to feel in my dress, I said whimsical, magical and romantic. The "Bianca" isn't something I would have pulled myself, but I trusted her and the process and, in the end, I found the most amazing gown and bonus, it’s within my budget! I will find another reason to wear this dress, LOL! Thank you RK Bridal and many, many thanks to Bianca!

t, and knows the dresses really well. She is encouraging when it comes to exploring styles and listens to your needs. I told Bianca my experience and what I thought I was looking for and she found THE DRESS for me. She helped me feel beautiful every step of the way. The staff in general was kind and welcoming- 95% of them, which is enough for me! Highly recommend shopping here and if you’re lucky enough to work with Bianca you will not be disappointed!

s. Sheryl made me feel not only comfortable but confidant and like the bridal princess I️ always envisioned. My 8yo niece came with me and Sheryl was so inclusive of her and made her feel extremely special. Sheryl made my bridal experience 1000000x better. She’s like the positive (but honest) bff everyone needs when dress shopping!

nd was not rushed at all. I had a fabulous experience!

es for me to try on. She was super chill and not at all pushy, which I loved. After I showed her pictures, the very first dress she pulled was the one I ended up choosing! She was super kind and warm to both me and my mom. All around, a great experience with a wonderful staff member!

to just narrow down choices and try things on, it was clear she wasn't going to put any care into my experience. You need to go with style numbers already picked out so they can be pulled for you. Bianca wasn't knowledgeable of the inventory and when I asked for suggestions she had nothing or to offer, or it was clear she was just suggesting designers or dresses I'd already looked at. When looking through the inventory I asked if she knew what a certain dress looked like on the bottom (because they are bagged on the rack) and she said "google it," so I pulled out my phone and went on a wild goose chase. While my friend and I were conferring about a dress I was wearing, she rushed me out of it and hurried me into the next one. Then after only 40 minutes and rushing me through all the dresses, said I was welcome to keep looking around but if someone else came in she'd have to go help them, which was fine because she was no real help anyway. Only after it was clear there were no other immediate appointments did she let me take my time and ask if I wanted to walk over to the monitor to be able to see the back of a dress. This is clearly a place who pumps out a ton of appointments a day. If you're looking for a relaxed experience where you can really shop, don't come here! What's more, they make you pay $25 to even g

y through the entire appointment. She made sure that everyone was heard and also made me feel super comfortable and confident. Sheryl is absolutely amazing at what she does and made sure I was able to find the exact dress and style I was looking for. I did give her a bit of challenge because I had such a short time frame but in the end I walked out with the dress that I absolutely loved. I can’t thank Sheryl and the entire staff at RK bridal for their customer service throughout the entire process. I cannot wait to wear my dress on my wedding day!

stomer service to ensure that I was pleased with my final choice. I am so happy that I was able to find a beautiful dress at a decent price. I highly recommend anyone looking for their wedding dress to come to this salon and ask for Sheryl. Thanks RK Bridal!

t like RK Bridal would provide the same service. They not only proved me wrong, but were the best customer service I received. Their appointment system was organized and easy to get in touch with someone either on their sales floor or in the alteration department. The owners of this shop are hands on with all of their sales and actually went and found my dress for me once I described what I was looking for. It was really nice to have a team dedicated to their dresses, designers, and customers. I also used their service for alterations for my dress and was very pleased with the results and progress made at each of my fittings. My veil was also purchased from RK Bridal as they had many options that also looked beautiful with my dress. The best part was not only did my dress arrive earlier than they said it would, the alterations were also completed earlier than anticipated! It was such a relief to have this part of wedding planning be so seamless. If you visit RK Bridal, you will walk out of there with your dream dress! Thank you RK Bridal!

ive and didn't pressure me into making a decision. Thankful for my experience here!

e appointment was only 45 minutes. The $25 fee is not worth it unless your lucky enough to get a knowledgeable consultant. During the initial conversation, it was clear the consultant had no idea what to pull so we had to pull gowns ourselves. After expressing our dissatisfaction, the only response from management was that the consultant was one of their top ones and to come back in with no fee (no refund for what we had already paid). So, if that was a top consultant, RK should take a look at their employees' skills. Waste of time, money, and effort to travel into NYC and pay for an appointment!

s to Bianca for all of her assistance!!

mic, so this was the first wedding task I did in person with my mom since getting engaged. We had an appointment on a weekday at opening. There was a line waiting for opening, but the space was large enough that it felt like we had the place to ourselves. Olga whisked me around the store, pulling dresses based on my initial thoughts. Once we had 5-6 dresses pulled, she asked which dress I wanted to try first. I picked one, walked out, my mom started crying, and that was that! I tried in the test, but the first was the clear winner. Olga was a joy to work with. She provided good feedback on which dresses worked well for me, and pulled others with similar features. My dress arrived quickly and in good shape. I had a great experience at RK Bridal!

I! I know I'll love my dress forever. I recommend asking for her and come HERE for your bridal shopping experience!

nd I out and made sure we had THE BEST TIME IN NYC! It was the experience of a lifetime and I will never forget it. Our mission… to find Sienna the perfect dress! The first stop was RK Bridal, a family owned bridal shop where we met Bianca. I have never met a person who knew SO MUCH about wedding gowns. She explained every detail of the dresses and even showed my sister how to walk in them and gave us a tutorial on how to bustle the dress, how to tan out the trains (which is going to help me for sure since I’m the MOH). She was lovely and my sisters and I quickly fell in love with her. Sienna tried on many dresses there and liked a few, really loved one but we knew we had an appointment next at THE Kleinfeld’s in Manhattan. We had a nice brunch and saved some energy for more shopping! We got seated and waited and waited. We weren’t allowed to browse dresses or help my sister pick anything out unlike RK’s Bridal shop who allowed us to browse the entire store. Sienna came out in the first gown which was NOTHING like the Pinterest board she sent the shop and we started to quickly miss Bianca. Although it was a beautiful dress, it wasn’t HER dress. So, I showed the sales lady a picture of her favorite dress from the previous shop so we could get SIENNA’S dress. We waited and waited and saw only a couple more dresses until sienna felt defeated and we decided to end the appointment. My heart broke for her because I knew how badly she wanted to get her dress from that store. I was so disappointed in the sales lady and the shop after sienna prepared them with an entire Pinterest board of what she wanted. Sienna began to give up hope but I told her not to forget the dress she loved at RK Bridal and we convinced her to go back and get her dress after all she found a dress she absolutely loved there! We quickly grabbed a car and rushed back to RK’s bridal. As we ran into the store we quickly asked for Bianca, she came running out and was so HAPPY to see us back. She said, “let me get YOUR dress” and Sienna quickly put it on with the perfect veil Bianca picked out and we all agreed THAT WAS THE DRESS and she was ready to be a bride! We went to do measurements and Mr. RK Himself came out to measure her to make SURE everything was absolutely perfect for my sister. We spent the rest of the time laughing and Joking with Reed and he made sure we had extra goodies to take home with us! We were so elated that she said YES TO THE DRESS at Mr. Reeds RK bridal shop! He left us with this gem that we will never forget. “After all, SOME good things happen in New York!” As we were waiting for our car outside the shop, God sent my sister her affirmation that she probably really needed… another bride and her family walked in and quickly remembered us from the waiting room at Kleinfeld’s! Our families laughed and joked about how terrible the shop was and the other bride even dubbed them “Bride Jail”! That was the icing on our cake. My sister knew she made the best decision and found the ABSOLUTE perfect dress! If you want the PERFECT DRESS WITH THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE GO TO RK BRIDAL AND FIND BIANCA! #yestothedressatRKbridal

idal! Natalie was amazing, amazing doesn’t even cover it tbh, she was insanely helpful, supportive, and basically a mind reader because I was so indecisive until I found THE ONE! Which SHE picked out based on me trying on a few dresses and asking me different questions. She took a million pictures, was patient, cool, kind and all around knowledgable and experienced. I cannot recommend Natalie and RK Bridal enough! Even if you are looking for higher price points please check them out. I personally think they had more options and a better selection for plus size women. The dresses were flattering and I didn’t need to be sucked in or clipped like crazy, majority of them were almost my size (14-16)! The front desk staff was lovely as well and emailed me almost instantly with alteration details. They gave my mom, sister, and I all tote bags and overall it was a lovely experience.

ay if you come here ask for Bianca she was AMAZING!! She made me feel so confident and comfortable in all they dresses I tried on. She was sooooo attentive to my energy and my groups opinions. She never rushed the appointment or made me feel like I had to purchase or say yes to a dress. I did in fact say yes to my dress and was sooooo happy. I’ve never felt more beautiful. RK Bridal was the second store I came to to go shopping and the overall experience was awesome. I would definitely recommend this store to any brides to be you won’t be disappointed.

picky. I had tried on so many dresses and kept feeling like none of them were “me.” I was nervous too, because I knew RK was a big store, and i was scared I’d feel pressured and overwhelmed. I was starting to feel like I might have to settle, but the experience was phenomenal. The store was practically empty when we went at 3:30 on a Friday, and my consultant Cheryl was AMAZING! She listened to me and totally understood my vision. She was the best hype girl, talking me up when I needed a confidence boost and helping me get out of my own way when I started to overanalyze. She stayed well within our budget and totally respected our wishes. Once I found the one, she took 1000 pics of me, my mom, and my FMIL - we had a whole photo shoot! I’d recommend RK to anyone, and ask for Cheryl!!

My dress was absolutely perfect! It definitely isn’t the same atmosphere as a smaller, more boutique salon but you can’t beat the selection.

on dresses prior and on top of that I also have a lot of body insecurities. Sheryl not only made sure I felt comfortable but brought me out of my comfort zone and convinced me to try on dresses I never would have thought looked good on me - and I ended up picking one them! RK bridal has such an incredible selection and their consultants make you feel special and beautiful. I had 3 other consultation appointments and I canceled them all. I recommend RK whole heartedly and I think a major aspect of that was also my experience with Sheryl and how confident and comfortable she made me feel. Their selection was amazing and the process was so easy. I recommend RK whole heartedly- I can’t wait for my first dress fitting !

ruly feel like she made the appointment perfect and literally did not expect my sister to find her dress here and Bianca made that happen. She not only was professional but she also made a point to get to know bride to be and make a connection with her, every other bridal place we’ve been to I would help adjust the dress or veil and that was not needed with Bianca, she was really such a pleasure to have durning our appointment for this special event. Thank you again Bianca!!

o good at handling conflicting opinions and personalities and being your hype girl the entire time you're there. When I changed my mind about my dress after having put a deposit down (not the store's fault, I just genuinely pivoted on what I wanted), she called me herself to talk through it and was sooo patient and understanding when I came back in to try on dresses again and was so considerate and careful to make sure that I felt confident in my decision the second time around. The store also honored the initial discount I had gotten on the first dress I purchased, and were in general so accommodating with having me come back in again. Honestly I'm so glad I went here, for a big store they do really treat you personably and make you feel comfortable. I'd recommend coming in on a weekday when there's fewer people shopping if you tend to get overwhelmed easily like me, but their selection is huge and if you get to work with Bianca, you'll be in super calm, capable hands :)

m dress, Bianca created an environment where I felt comfortable and excited to find my gown. She was just as invested as I was in making sure the gowns I tried on fit the look I was going for, sharing her insight and thoughts while giving my group and I the space to talk through what we loved and didn't love about each gown I tried on (until we all wept when I came out wearing the perfect one). The entire team at RK made the process so seamless and wonderful - I cannot say enough good things about the experience as a whole!

ey were so thrilled to have us and it was so cool having the entire store to explore. They were so patient and fun and they stayed open an extra half hour for us without even asking! I found my dream dress and I couldn't be more grateful. <3

experience and overall the best person I met during my search. She was the first person who let me and my sisters walk through the store and choose the dresses we liked first! From there, she made suggestions and chose other picks.the owner came out to help me with style and other options. Reid, you are a true hero for being the owner yet still getting your hands dirty with brides. Such a graceful pair- Bianca and Reid. We had a 60 or 90 minute appointment and she stayed with me until the store closed. I chose my dream dress and honestly it was because I had A DREAM helper/expert with Bianca. I cannot Thank RK bridal enough!

pful and honestly just an amazing hype woman! Great place to shop, especially for curvy brides and folks on a budget!

going to my final appointment the next day before making any decisions, I cancelled my appointment at Kleinfeld the next day after finding THE dress with Bianca. My previous bridal salon experiences, while high end boutiques, felt sterile and impersonal - I left those appointments not fully in love with any dresses and not feeling overly optimistic - in some cases I even felt rushed out the door or pushed to make a decision I wasn't comfortable with. Everything changed at my appointment with Bianca - we had FUN. She patiently asked me questions to learn more about my style, was extremely warm and upbeat, and most of all patient with me. I brought only my mother to my appointments, but having Bianca there felt like having an incredible friend with you - you couldn't help but smile being in her presence. She made me feel so beautiful and special on such an important day. Switching over to RK Bridal salon itself, I can't imagine walking in and not falling in love with a dress. Their selection is huge, the dresses are absolutely amazing, and you're able to walk the floor and pull your own dresses if you'd like. I highly recommend you check out RK Bridal and hope you are lucky enough to work with Bianca - she is truly one in a million.

I showed up nervous and a bit disillusioned, but from the moment I met my consultant Natalie, she put me at ease, got me EXCITED again, and found me MY dress! Natalie is an absolute rockstar -- knowledgeable, kind, patient, understanding, and FUN! I truly felt like she was focused on finding the *right dress* for me. She listened to my concerns, adjusted her selections, and at one point was pulling swatches of fabric and crawling under the dress I had on to show me the different skirt coloring options. When I found my dress, Natalie celebrated with us like she was part of our family. My mom took a photo (that I can't share until post-wedding!) of Natalie hugging me when I teared up realizing I'd found the dress! This is what you're getting at RK Bridal -- knowledgeable consultants that CARE about their brides. If you're shopping in NYC I cannot recommend RK Bridal highly enough (and request Natalie).

ses they were nicer dresses. I wrote a review and they responded that she actually nice and some would say religious!

ance - let alone my dress! All the gratitude truly goes to Dale, who made this experience really feel special - listening to me & finding dresses that matched my keywords (and budget) as well as making sure my family was taken care of as well. Truly the absolute sweetest, most loving energy, and I can’t be more thankful for that! I found my dress and I couldn’t be happier with it or the experience. Extra shoutout to the other sweet workers there - the energy really was positive and open overall there. So Dale - thank you - I cannot wait to have my follow up fittings and I really recommend RK bridal :)

s but she swore she would find me my dress in this visit (she did!). Dale listened to all my critiques about the dresses I tried on and she brought out a dress that checked all my boxes! Seriously if you come here as for Dale, even though I only spent an hour with her by the end she felt almost like family due to how supportive and funny she was! You won’t make a mistake getting your dress here! I was even quoted a delivery date super quicker than I was expecting!
