Wow, I love this place!
Let me start by saying I'm from Michigan, and my sister lives in Kansas, so a friend and I traveled to KC to help her pick out a wedding gown and bridesmaid dresses. We booked appointments at four locations, with four d...ifferent price levels, and very different selections, and this place excelled in every way. My friend and I have both worked in the bridal industry (she in a bridal gown salon, I in cosmetics) so we have a great feel for what's important, and also want that balance of service with just a touch of "I'll let you know when I need you to help me" and they were great at feeling us out and giving us just the right level of help without hovering.
What really sets this place apart is the beautiful selection at completely reasonable price points. I don't think there was a dress in there priced over $1200, but there were so many unique, beautifully-made gowns that you would normally only find in an expensive boutique. We spoke at length with both the owner and several employees and learned that much of the purchasing is split between the owner and another long-term employee, each with very different personal styles, and this really shows. You see a great balance of beautiful, feminine, classic designs and some with just enough of an "edge" to be different. There was no other place in KC that had this selection at this affordable price point. And again, the quality looked and felt wonderful, not like the cheap feeling dresses you can find at that "chain" bridal store.
The service was fantastic, the setting beautiful and comfortable, and the people friendly, honest, and real. I really can't say enough great things about this place. We ended up purchasing my sister's gown and 8 bridesmaid dresses and couldn't be happier about our selection. They really made what could have been a stressful purchase a joy.
