  I've shopped and using Altar Bound in Beavercreek for my bridesmaid dresses.  I'm not sure about them having Ella though, but it's worth a try!

  I bought my dress from Lillians in Dayton. I was happy with the service for my initial appointment. I picked the first dress I tried on! I only had 7 months to get it ordered and altered and they were very late on getting my dress in (after they told me it would be no problem) I wish I had told them my wedding was a few weeks earlier so I wouldn't have had to worry. They also ordered the wrong shoes for me and were rude after I had placed my orders but take it for what it's worth. I probably wouldnt go back but I did love my dress!

  I just bought my dress from Liilian's! I LOVE THIS PLACE! Its so pretty, you really feel special...I did not want to go to a large overwhelming warehouse or chain store. The staff at Lillians is so nice and fun. Note, you MUST have an appointment, but I appreciate this...mine was on a saturday morning and there was one just one other bride there in a separate room...I hardly saw her, I really felt like the store was mine that morning. You have your own large dressing room (you don't have to change in front of a bunch of other brides), and the bridal assistant just passes the dress into you. I am not modest, but I imagine for someone who is, this would be a relief. Attached to my dressing room, was a sitting room that was just for me and my group (brought my mom, sisters, and mother in law). The sitting room was so pretty with large gold framed mirrors, a chandelier, and plenty of comfy seating. Again, I feel like the atmosphere was just as lovely as my dress, and all together is was a special day I will remember forever. The owner and staff really know their dresses - the one I ended up buying was one they pulled for me that I wouldn't have pulled for myself.  They have a great selection, and about 4 large racks of sample's you can buy for 50% off. NICE! I bought my dress well with in my budget. You can deff get an awesome dress for 600-900 if you are looking to stay under $1000, and are okay with purchasing a discontinued sample.  For me, a sample dress was perfect, because waiting the 6-9 months it takes for a new dress to come in, would have been cutting it close to my wedding date. Lillian's has a woman who does the alterations right there at the store. They also have veils, headbands, sashes, shoes, and great jewelry. I know most bridals stores do - but this is nice stuff ladies! I am going to go back and get all that stuff closer to my first fitting. Oh, and my fiance will get his tux rental for free! See? Happiness for everyone. We left the store loving the experience and talked about it all through our post-bridal lunch. I hear horror stories about dress shopping, I am so glad that wasn't the case for me!
