My experience at Town & Country Bridal with Lauren Haag was nothing short of amazing.
Lauren was superb in terms of preparation and curating an ideal experience during the appointment. Prior to our appointment, Lauren contacted me and inquire...d into what I was looking for in a wedding dress and I sent her some images. When I stepped into Town & Country Bridal with my mom and sister, Lauren brightly greeted us and assured me that everything was going to be okay.
Unlike other bridal stores I previously visited, Lauren had four dresses prepared and ready for me to try on. Not only was she prepared, but the first dress she pulled for me was a dress I had seen online that I internally declared as MY wedding dress beforehand. Lauren could sense my excitement but to ensure she covered all her bases, she showed me each dress she pulled to confirm the dress was consistent with my vision. I was extremely eager to try on the first dress but she asked me if I wanted to step into their showroom and look for any additional dresses. I agreed just in case. I stepped into the showroom and I immediately froze when I laid eyes on this beautiful ivory dress with a sweetheart neckline, form-flattering bodice embellished with sparkling sequin details and 3D floral lace appliques, column silhouette and Watteau-inspired lace bridal jacket—the complete opposite of what I had described to her. I had previously told her that I wanted a minimal dress with a sweetheart neckline, column sheath silhouette, and draping. Lauren noted this and unfazed by this, she offered to pull the dress—demonstrating her flexibility.
I tried on the first dress—the first dress I had previously ogled and sent her a picture of prior to the appointment. As expected, I loved the first dress and so did my family. We all questioned as to whether I should even try the other four dresses on. I tried on the other three dresses she previously pulled. The other dresses were beautiful but my heart was still set on the first dress I tried on—I was sure that was the dress I was going to say yes to. I tried on the last dress—the dress that caught my eye in the showroom and was stunned. I was stunned because it was the exact opposite of what I wanted but this dress made me feel like a bride. My eyes began to well and I unintentionally called it “my dress.” My family began taking pictures and videos of me in the fifth dress—my unexpected dress. I was incessantly teetering between both dresses. Lauren was patient with me and tried her best to not influence my decision even though I begged her to make the choice for me. I tried on dress one and dress five one more time but this time she changed my earrings, added a veil, and provided me with a bouquet. Lauren asked me to close my eyes and asked me to envision myself walking down the aisle to my fiancée and asked me which dress I envisioned wearing—the magic question. When she asked me to open my eyes, the choice was no longer a choice—the fifth dress chose me. She celebrated with me and she seemed genuinely happy!
Lauren genuinely cares about curating an unforgettable experience. She excelled in providing me with dresses, ensured my family felt comfortable, was flexible, assured me about my insecurities, was extremely patient when I had difficulty choosing , and she helped me make a choice without influencing my choice.
