Bridal shops in South Jersey?

Hey ladies,
I'm looking for the best bridal shop in south Jersey.  I've been to David's Bridal and hate the fact that they make you feel like s*** if  you don't buy a dress right then and there.  I want to try on dresses until I find "the one".  I don't like pushy or judgmental salespeople....I'm heavily tattooed and don't want to see my salesperson cringing when they see them.  Any input would be appreciated, good or bad!!

    i got my dress and bridemaids dresses from lilly bridal in sewell..there is one lady there that i'm not fond of but the rest are very helpful and didnt put any pressure on me.  the shop is small; but they have more than enough dresses to try on. one of my bridesmaids has a half sleave and they did not give it a second look when she went for her dress.   i also went to jay west in haddonfield and they were super nice and not at all pushy. their store has a larger selection as well.

    I used the Macy's Bridal salon at the Cherry Hill Mall.  I asked my sales lady, Minnie (who was awesome by the way!), how long I had to try on dresses.  She said as long as she didn't get another appointment, I could stay until I found the one.  There was no pressure.  My friend and SIL also got their dresses from the same salon with the same no pressure feeling.  All of the ladies I have interacted with at Macys over the years (I got BM dresses here as well) were all wonderful and nice. 

    They only have Demetrios bridal gowns, but the prices were reasonable for what you are buying.  I would recommend waiting for a trunk show (the whole bridal salon is 15% off) and going during the week if possible.  I went on a Friday night and only saw a few other people trying on dresses.

    I got my dress at Wedding Belles Boutique, which is in Northfield, near Atlantic City.  The selection of dresses is amazing and the staff is wonderful!

    I have been dealing with Claire's in Wilmington DE which is really just over the Com Barry Bridge.  They have been great, the girls that work there are younger and they do not work on commission and therefore not pushy

    I am bought my dress from Tesi Bridal in Ventnor, which is 5 minutes from Atlantic City. They are wonderful. The two younger women that work there make you feel very comfortable. Also, Tesi (the owner) is super nice and helpful.

    I went to Lilly as well. I had a great experience! The shop is small, but I tried on at least 5 dresses (I went in with a list and they had most of the dresses on the list). I would definitely recommend checkin it out if you're in the area.

    I went to Irma's in Cherry Hill for my gown. I had also been to a few other places, but it seemed like Irma's had the best selection. Good luck!

    I got mine from Jay West in Haddonfield - they are so nice there.  My mom got hers from Bridal Manor in Sewell - I was in there with her and it looked like they had a lot of selection although I didn't actually look there so I can't fully recommend.

    I ordered my dress from Bridal Garden in Marlton, right on Rte 70.... So far I've been extremely happy with my overall experience. Debbie was an amazing consultant to work with!

    I ended up going with Wedding Belles in Northfield....can't say enough great things about them!!!!  I went in there with preconceived dress ideas in my head.  Tina picked out a dress that I didn't think I would like since it had ruffles.  It ended up being "the one" and I cried like a baby when I put it on!!!!  Love love love Tina and Terry!!!
