I had frustrating experience at my local Davids bridal as a bridesmaid, so I am loathe to go back to them....anywhere else in Jersey that has Davids bridal prices (dresses under $600) that is NOT a Davids??
Keep in mind that the customer service varies greatly from store to store. I had a terrible experience at the one in paramus, and ended up going to the one in wayne and they were great! i got my dress, FG dresses, bm dresses and both moms got their dresses there and they did a great job.
exactly...I had a terrible experience there. I highly suggest the one in Wayne, they were so nice. I also suggest going at an off time to look, you will get a lot more attention then if you go on a weekend afternoon. Good Luck!
I went yesterday to the David's Bridal in Springfieldd to purchase my dress and my bridesmaids dresses. Allana was the person who helped me. She was SO nice! The first time I went there and yesterday I had good experiences. Yesterday I had my hair and make up done from the trial. Allana gave me a fake flower bouquet and took pictures of me, my bridesmaids and my mother. So I agree with the post before. Sometimes is not so much the store, is the person who helps you.
Yes, my co-worker who is also getting married told me about J Crew for bm dresses! I had no idea they had that. Also, glad to know about Davids Bridal in Paramus! That would have been the one Ii went to this weekend but I guess I'll try Wayne on Sunday! Thanks ladies
I agree the customer service in Paramus is terrible! But I went to the one in Wayne and they were sooo much better. I got my dress, and BM dresses there.
I too went to Paramus when I was a Bridesmaid and have SWORN off David's bridal. They were terrible... Try Group USA.. there is also one in Seacacus. I did not know about the one @ Jersey Gardens. I just stopped in the Seacacus one to see wha tthey had, the lady was so nice and asked it I wnated to try anything on. No appts needed it seems..
Man I'm glad we are getting the word out about Paramus! Thanks for all the suggestions, I'm definitely going to go to Wayne and check out some of the others too.
East west bridal in seacacus has good prices also for bridal gowns but not so for MOB and not sure on BM - the owner Elyse is wonderful - her husband Gary is a bit different but harmless - good luck!

Maybe try a different DB for a better experience

If you want to try them on, they are available in Manhattan.
their bridesmaid dress collection isn't the best though
another place i liked was Sandreen's Bridal in Saddle Brook - GREAT customer service.
