I've been told to go to one of these stores by several people but now I have to two confused. Which one is better (selection wise)? Carolina Bridal World has Maggie dresses which I really love.

    I've never been to Carolian Bridal World so I can't speak to that, but if you love a line they carry then it makes sense to go there.

    Any reason you can't shop at both?

    I can tell you Bridal Mart has a HUGE selection. I even think they have Maggie dresses, but don't hold it against me. I vote you try to go to both!

    I have been to both. Carolina Bridal World is smaller than Bridal Mart and had less of a selection for me to try on.  Bridal Mart does not have Maggie listed as one of the designers they carry though. I also received more 1 on 1 customer service at Carolina Bridal World but I went first thing on a Saturday and it wasn't busy.  I also did not expect to receive customer service like you would at a boutique but that is a fine trade off for me for the lower prices.

    If you go to Bridal Mart then I would suggest going on a weekday or week night. The weekends there can be crazy! Like others suggest if you have time you should check both out.

    I went to both and was super disappointed in Carolina Bridal World.  They had a very small selection, and the dresses I did try on were all ripped and really worn out.  I asked the clerk if they actually sell the dresses off the rack (and I even pointed out to her that the dress I tried on had a huge rip in it) and she really didn't seem phased by it.  She said they could probably mark it down a little if I wanted her to ask a manager, but that she told me that it would need to be altered anyway so she didn't think the rip would be a problem.  I was absolutely speechless, so I told her I didn't think I was interested and left very quickly.  I wouldn't waste my time going back there.

    I went to both Carolina Bridal World and Bridal Mart. Carolina Bridal World had good customer service, although it was on a Wednesday but they had a small selection. Mostly very traditional dresses. I made the very very bad mistake of going to Bridal Mart on a Saturday. It was a nightmare. I could hardly look at any of the dresses because there were so many people there. Also, their dressing rooms are one big open room, like the showers in high school! Very very very uncomfortable! Might I reccomend going to The Wedding Mall in Charlotte? I bought my dress here, their selection is a variety and they had excellent service, even on a Saturday afternoon!
