So I found a GREAT dress at AA, it very well may be the one. However, I jumped online to read some reviews and can find
nothing positive at all!! Have any of you had a good experience you can tell me about? As of right now I'm kinda scared to go back, yikes! Thanks
Re: Alfred Angelo experiences, please?!?!
[QUOTE]I had a horrid experience in there. The girl that was at the front when I walked in took 10 mins to acknowledge me and then she was snippy about me working on a budget because I didn't want to spend 5k on a dress. I don't know I wouldn't ever walk in there again for anything, ever. Sorry! It's always worth a try though!

<div>I dont think that is a normal experience there. When I went I worked with Erin and she was really great. And as we were looking at dresses, I never saw one that was over 1,200 so I am not sure how they would be upset about staying under 5k. Havent bought the dress yet because the wedding is still a little too far out but I will definitely go back to AA before I make a decision. </div>
Bio-tastic & Sale Stuff
I made another appointment and went back about a week later and she remembered me. I wanted to try a few more dresses and she was just as cool as before. I ended up buying "the one" (which was 1/3 of my budged and she didn't seem to mind a bit) and have nothing but good things to say about my experience with the store and with her thus far. Once it comes in and I have to start dealing with alterations I'll be sure to let y'all know how that ends up. Thanks again!!!
And then there was no one available to help me in the fitting room!
The service and attention at David's, not the mention the prices, are IMHO much better. And their alterations were perfect.

[QUOTE]I also had a horrible experience there. I made an appointment, but was kept waiting for THIRTY MINUTES. And then there was no one available to help me in the fitting room!

[QUOTE]I will not walk into David's bridal here in Tucson. Looking for my senior prom dress was a nightmare enough in there without it being my wedding dress. I will be going to AA and some other bridal shops in Phx but I plan on having Hem and Her make my dress. In Response to Re: Alfred Angelo experiences, please?!?! :

You may have had a negative experience several years ago, but I believe there is new management now, and I know at least 3 other brides who went to DB in Tucson in the last 2 years for dresses and alterations, and all were completely satisfied.
Of course shop wherever you like!
But I think, for other Tucson brides who have an interest in David's, it's worth making an appointment and checking them out. I'd recommend a weekday morning -- you're more likely to get more undivided attention from a consultant.
