Ok - i am sucking it up and going dress shopping this weekend...

I am meeting one of my bridesmaids in the Cherry Hill area and was thinking of Country Way and Davids Bridal...anyone else have any other suggestions?

Thank you !

    If you don't have any luck this weekend, your second trip could be closer to the beach.  I got my dress at Tesi's in Ventnor.  There are also Wedding Belles and Something Old Something New.  I do not recommend trying any of these places on Memorial Day weekend with the traffic and all :)

    Good luck shopping!

    I also went to the Bridal Garden and Irma's. Like pp's said if those locations don't work for you, you could also go more central jersey. Lawrenceville and Bordentown area have a lot! Fantasy Weddings, The Perfect Dress, and Bridals by Michelle Renee. HTH

    Try Jay West - its a couple doors down from Country Way.  I got my dress and my bridesmaid dresses there, they are great to work with.  but I definitely recommend making an appt.  you can also try Macy's Bridal at the Cherry Hill mall.

    Oh and I meant to add that if you are going to David's bridal the Deptford location is larger and seems to have more of a selection on hand than the Maple Shade store.

    I suggest Irma's.  Went there and the dress I wanted was a few hundred dollars less there, than in other shops I went to!

    Irma's and Jay West were great.  I had a less than stellar experience at The Bridal Garden.  I was in a wedding where we got the dresses at Aimee Michelle and woudln't recommend them.  GL!

    When I first got my dress at Bridal Garden, I recommended them to other brides.  Now, I'd suggest you stay far away.  They are beyond rude.  I'd give my business to someone else if I could do it all over again.  I loved Country Way!  The girl in there was amazingly helpful and their dresses are gorgeous.

    Fantasy Weddings and Bridal by Michelle Renee were great. Fantasy Weddings may have a larger selection. Also if your down in that area there is also The Bridal Suite in Hamilton. They are good too. Have fun!!

    Stay AWAY from Country Way! I was browsing in the store when a bride's mother got into a dispute with the owner about alterations - the owner threw the mother out and called he a fat f*cking b*tch in front of a store FULL OF CUSTOMERS!  I walked out after that.

    Why wouldnt you recommend Aimee Michelle?  I  looked up a dress designer I like and it looks like Irma's Bridal doesnt carry the full line of the designer.  Aimee does...  When i go lookin for a dress this might be a problem for me now.  eh.
