This was the second store I went to in search of my dream dress. On this day, we had 4 stores to go to, and Brides by Demetrios was #1. I was one of the first appointments of the day, and I received a friendly greeting upon arrival by Jenna, who ended up being my bridal consultant.
As soon as I walked in the door, I saw an amazing dress that I just had to try on. I was concerned that it was over my budget ($2000), and I was right (it was $3400). However, I still wanted to try it on - it was just THAT beautiful, and it met every one of my wants in a dress (lace, sparkle, sweetheart neckline, A-Line shape).
We pulled quite a few additional gowns, but nothing compared to the first one I saw - it was just love at first site. Once I tried it on, I knew it was the one - I felt amazing, and there wasn't anything I didn't like about it. Jenna added the veil and headpiece, along with a sparkly belt, and it was perfect. However, I still had 3 appointments with other bridal salons, and I just couldn't say yes to this one without ruling out the other places. So I vowed to come back that day if I couldn't find anything to top this dress.
Well, I ended up returning that day and purchasing the dress. Even better, Jenna was able to get the price lowered for me - they were having a sale the next weekend, so I was able to get the sale price early. I was (and still am) so excited and happy - I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day!
The only hiccup we had was that the bridesmaids dresses came in almost 2 months later than promised, which caused me a bit of anxiety. However, the dresses turned out beautiful, and we were able to have our alterations completed in time.
I highly recommend Brides by Demetrios - they have numerous beautiful gowns to fit every size and shape at amazing prices. I couldn't believe the price of my gown - the quality for the price I paid was phenomenal. All of the staff there were very friendly, and I felt so comfortable the entire time.
