| - Well, I've been through the David's ringer before, the last time was a year ago for my sister's wedding. I bought my MOH dress here, chosen by my sister from afar. Thaqt expereince was horrible..
But this time around I decided to give David's another try because I'm the BRIDE. I figured maybe I had received backseat service because I was a lowly attendent.. Nope. Brides are just as cattle driven as attendents.
I called 4 days in advance to book myself an appointment for the following weekend. I invited a couple friends and as soon as we walked in the store I was hit by the sheer amount of people in there.. It was jam packed. I overlooked this, as I knew I'd made an appointment and assumed I'd receive the service I had booked.
I did.. SORT of. My consultant informed me immediately that she was also helping another bride, so she would pull me some dresses and be "around" to answer any questions or help out. (Fine, whatever. I have my friends for that.)
Before I booked my appointment I saved six dresses to their website which the consultant was able to print out and use to pull the specific dresses. She managed to pull four of the six, two of which were not even close to my size. She supplied a clip for the back, but these things were literally EIGHT sizes too large for me, so clipping the back did the dresses no justice at all.
The other two dresses she said she thought they just didn't have. Annoyed, my friend asked her to look again, as one of them was the one I wanted to try on most. Funny, after requesting a second time, the consultant came up with the dress which ended up being my number one pick. I loved it and would have liked to try it with a veil and some accessories.. Heck, I would have loved to see it on the platform area with all the big mirrors (I was only alotted the mirror on the back of the dressing room door), but I was then informed that we had 15 minutes left, so if we'd like to see any other dresses it's now or never. I was shocked.. I had no idea there was a time limit for brides looking for their dresses and was really disappointed that we had no time to look through dresses ourselves. An hour and a half really is not enough time. I got through five dresses, much of the time spent was simply waiting for the next to arrive from my obviously overbooked and frazzled consultant.
The draw - and only reason I gave 2 stars instead of one- to David's is the price range; they carry many affordable dresses and even have offshoot lines of some famous makers (White by Vera Wang, melissa sweet, etc but these are more like outlet lines by the makers). However, you will pay for it in service. Because you won't really experience any. If all of the other shops are out of your price range, I'm sorry you'll have to deal with David's. I did not feel like a bride here, I felt like a cow being stuffed through a cattle shoot .
