Bridal Gallery By Yvonne - RUN AWAY!

Bad experience with this place for wedding gowns that have the original designer's tags ripped out of them.

Beware of the "Lilly Isaac" line they "carry". I have heard MANY other brides say that she uses that and the 2Be lines to throw brides off from the name of real manufacture so you cannot comparison shop.  Who can afford not to in this economy???

I was lied to for three months about the maker of a dress she had to find out it was made by another manufacturer.

Look out for this place and if you find it go in the opposite direction!

    lol that's really funny, they told me the dress I liked was Something-Isaac too, but it wasn't Lilly.  I thought the dresses were nice, but the service was pretty snotty... why be so secretive about the designer???  It really threw me off and made me not want to buy there.  Although what I've heard is that there are designers who design exclusively for Yvonne's, so that's why they're nowhere online.  I don't know if that's true or not. 

    I almost got my dress there anyway just because I liked the design a lot, but I decided to look at "just one more bridal shop" and had a MUCH better experience at Angela's Bridal.  The dresses and service were a million times better than Yvonne's and ended up getting mine there. 

    So I guess I'd 1/2 agree with you.  And my fiance's sister and others I know loved their dressed from Yvonne's, so I wouldn't completely avoid them.  Nice dresses, but a little shady.

    I have had a really good experience with Yvonne's so far. They have been really helpful and accommodating.

    I don't think that there is 1 bridal shop in the area that I haven't heard a bad thing about.

    I had a great experiencce at Yvonne's when I was shopping.  Almost got my dress there but then I found one downstate when I was with my mom.  I think a lot of stores are less than candid about the designer and style number and that sucks but that's the industry.

    I bought my dress there too.  Mine is a 2be gown and I LOVE IT!  I had a great experience.  Everyone has issues with a bridal shop or another.  That's why there are tons to choose from.
