RK Bridal (dress)
C+: The sales woman (Gilda) was very fun and spunky. The dress was a great price, but I had actually not thought to price check.
The alterations ladies however, were not that great in my opinion. They made a dress that fit me too tight and gave me back fat. When I complained about this, they said there was nothing they could do about it. Not the correct answer! If you're a professional seamstress, you should not be cutting out fabric that is needed to keep the dress from squeezing the bride's skin out!
Bridal Veil Falls
B+: Margaret, the owner of the store custom made my veil to fit my face. She also made my feathered flower. I picked the color, material, and center jewels (pearls) to match my dress.
Only downside was that she would tell me she was going to call and then she'd forget. Other than that, it was great. Oh and her website is horrible!

Net Bride (Bridesmaid Dresses)
A+: Netbride was fabulous. They price match! They weren't the lowest price (Pearl's Place was) so I got them to go lower. I had heard better results about them and I just ordered everyone's dress. The dresses came in a whole month early. No complaints!

Wedding Day Dance
A: Anne-Marie was an amazing teacher. I am a dancer, but my husband is not, so at first he was very apprehensive about dance lessons. But she was very hard on both of us. She taught us a foxtrot and some swing. It was very elegant, and my husband has now asked if we can take more dance lessons. She was excellent and we loved how it was a private lesson.
