| - I had serious doubts and was nervous about booking an appointment. Wedding dress shopping is an uncomfortable thought---trying on dresses in front of a stranger, half nekkidness, feeling fat or falling in love with a super expensive dress...I was not psyched. I went to David's Bridal and tried on a few dresses and was almost set, when I thought I should just get a second appointment somewhere else to see what all my options were.
I went to Vera's in September of 2013 and told the salesperson, Beth, what I wanted and my price point. I was skeptical that she would find what I wanted (after all, I had paged through thousands of website pages looking) but by the fourth dress, she found it. Low key, no frills, lace V-neck with satin ruching to pull in the waist. I loved it AND felt skinny (at a size 10-12 that's hard sometimes). The best part? The dress was half my price point. There was no pressure, either, to get a veil or shoes or accessories, which was great.
At my fitting, I didn't need any alterations which again made things easy. I just can't say enough good things about Vera's. Highly recommended, and this is coming from a former skeptic.
