Places to go BM Dress Shopping?

Hi there! My wedding and I are in Seattle, but two of my BMs are in Chicago and I'll be making a trip out there soon to go dress shopping with them. Do you ladies have any suggestions on where we should go? I'm looking for: -Someplace convenient to Beverly or Riverside -Someplace where we can take pictures -Someplace with a wide selection of the major designers (bonus points if they carry Alfred Angelo, Jasmine, and Watters) TIA!

    I tried on wedding dresses at Macy's and they were very rude. Maybe they'll be nicer if you're trying on BM dresses?

    I know that most people probably wouldn't agree, but I had a GREAT experience at House of Brides Chicago. Ask for Alex, and you won't be disappointed. She is very sweet. They have quite a few dresses in stock in short and long lengths. She basically took us back to where the dresses were, and let us choose what we wanted my MOH to try on. She wasn't pushy, came with color swatches since we were looking at a few different designers, and she came to check in every once in awhile to ask if we needed help/had questions. I was also able to price match (as long as you have a print out it can be verified by the manager). I was able to save the girls $25. GL!

    I ditto the House of Brides. We didn't actually end up buying the dresses there, but my MOH was able to try on a lot of different designers there.
