My bridal party and myself showed up to our appointment. A man working in the building let us in but said Shel wasn't there yet. It was a few minutes past our appointment time and ...
we were told to start looking, then the man left. After about 10 minutes in the shop alone, Shel showed up. She asked what kind of wedding dress I liked and told her nothing fluffy, I like more vintage and fitted. The dresses were hard to look at because they were in plastic but she chose probably the most disturbingly fluffy dresses. While there was a discount they were the most expensive dresses I tried on. Shel helped put me in 1 dress then I didn't see her at all after that and 2 random girls showed up. For about half an hour they kinda just stood around and watched. Then one started helping.
If you shop here just beware. My gut told me not to love anything here because where the Hell did Shel go? I was told the place is closing, and that is probably for the best.
We(the bride and bridal party) went to go look for bridesmaid dresses in February. The wedding is today(aka 8/14/2021). The bride had a friend that knew Shel so she wanted to go wi...
th her again. Everything seemed ok, we picked a dress, and went to order it. Shel stated that we didn’t need to order until May for timing so we agreed to contact her then and went on our merry way. May we be an calling and texting trying to get replies and got nothing. After all of us throwing a fuss and the bride contacting the friend who had to go as a middle man we found out the dresses we wanted weren’t even an option. They were discontinued and she didn’t inform us. The bride still wants to go through her though is EXTREMELY stressed! We make another appointment and show up. We can’t get into the shop. The elevator won’t go up the side door is locked. Shel isn’t around so we are trying to figure out a game plan. 30 minutes past our appointment as we are trying to figure out what the plan is Shel comes walking up and asks “oh did you guys have an appointment? Oh let me unlock the store for you”
We get in. We pick a dress. At this point it’s weeks before the wedding so we don’t have much choice but to go with her. She promises as she is getting them from the direct vendor she can have the dresses in within 7 days. The bride calms down. All is well. The dresses weren’t even ordered by shel until like a week later(maybe more). So in reality I don’t know how long the dresses took to come in. We FINALLY have our dresses come in 2 weeks before the wedding. We were told to absolutely not have them touch it for alterations due to actually wanting to have the dresses for her big day. She had already given them her wedding dress for alterations and was FIERCELY regretting it. Towards the end an employee named Heather was the ONLY good thing about our interaction. She knew more and was more helpful than anyone else there and it’s not even her store! I get it’s COVID and stuff comes up. But to not even effectively communicate with your client ON TOP OF mishandling their special day is just ridiculous. 0/5 stars. I’m not normally the kind of person to leave such horrid reviews but I am so absolutely floored in how little care she took for my friends special day. Would honestly rather repeat high school math than step foot in that store again.
I hired Shel as my day of coordinator for my upcoming wedding. I was referred to her from a friend but unfortunately I did not have the same pleasant experience. She is very afford...
able however, I booked her over a year in advance and she up and canceled on me one month before my wedding. She realized that she didn’t have enough staff to be able to help me on my wedding day. I was given no indication prior to her up and canceling that she was experiencing staffing concerns. Also, I attempted to touch base with Shel several times since booking and she was difficult to get a response back. When I did get a response back, it was not very professional.
Amazing pricing, amazing service! Was having a sale and I wanted to go in and check it out. Shel was so nice and helped me find the dress of my dreams and stay WAY under my budget!...
Shel is an amazing soul! I love her shop, her inventory, and everything about my experience here. Shel is easy to work with and very affordable with a beautiful selection...And ...
her sales are UNBEATABLE! Bridesmaids, Mother-of-the Bride, prom...she has it all!! Her shop is just the cutest.
