Netbride, Pearl's Place, House of Dress = legit?

clearheavens

This is my first post in The Dress board.I am very early in my planning and looking for my wedding dress.  I heard about websites like netbride.com and pearlsplace.com as selling the same dress in boutiques but cheaper.  I don't know they can afford it but I guess due to the sheer volume of orders they can stay in business.  I haven't heard anything bad about them yet from any of the boards but I wanted to make sure.Also, I ran across houseofdress.com on another board, and they're based in China and make replicas.  They don't scare me like other international imitation dress makers do because their English seems to be good.  (Apparently an indication they're more or less professional.)  But does anyone have any experience with them?  Or have any thoughts?

try rkbridal.com bought my wedding gown and bridesmaids dresses there, They match other online stores and beat it by 5% they also shipped the dresses to all my girls

I can't personally vouch for them yet because I haven't ordered yet, but a number of women on the board recommend Netbride.com, and I feel pretty comfortable cause they have a A+ rating from the BBB [one complaint in 36 months...which is crazy.] I was also wondering about House of Dress! I love the price, but I have seen extreeeemely mixed reviews. It seems like 85% of people have a very good experience but the 15% with a problem have a REAL problem...

I would definately suggest Pearlsplace.com as the best. The Houseof dress is just a copy house that make imitations. Netbride and Pearls Place are the total best.

Netbride and Pearl's Place have been around for many years (they both have brick and mortar stores as well), and they have excellent reputations.  They also sell real dresses as opposed to replicas.  I used both and would highly recommend them!

Highly, highly recommend Pearl's Place. I got my dress and my bridesmaids dresses there, they all came in very quickly, and were all genuine, new dresses. Price was UNBEATABLE, and no sales tax (same goes for you unless you live in Louisiana) or shipping.
