Bridesmaids Dresses (Kind of a Rant!)

So bridesmaids dresses are finally picked out and 2 of 4 BMs got fitted today!  I had an appointment at one store in town that I have had friends use for their weddings.  We got to the store today and the salesperson that was helping us was from a different store...she was CLUELESS and RUDE about the entire appointment.  We were the only 5 people in the store with 4 salesgirls walking around.  The girls finally got fitted and then went to start the payment process when they started tacking all of these fees that were apparently mentioned before.  No....they were not mentioned!! I was livid...the manager was yelling at me, saying she gave me a folder of information the first time I went in there.  (Never happened). 

We finally told them we were done and walked out.  We went to another store without an appointment and we were treated sooo nicely! It was sooo nice. 

Ahhh...sorry this has just been my first awful bridal experience.  I was a bridezilla today...I hope that is the one and only time....

    Glad the second store was nice. I went with my bridesmaids to 2 different stores. For a variety of reasons, I went to both stores more than once. We had different experiences at each store depending on who was working that day. Kind of annoying, really bad for salespeople to be rude, but in the end I like the dresses we picked and hope they come in soon! They seem to be taking forever!
