Were it not for the perfect dress of my dreams being a David's Bridal dress, I would not have went back to this business. The sales girl they set me up with was only interested in helping me once out of the three times I went in – the first two times, I took my bridesmaids, the third time I took my mother. While there with bridesmaids, I noticed that she gave her full attention to the girls who's parents were with them and left me with just my bridesmaid to help me in and out of the dresses. Funny how she was all over me and my mother when we went and it was no less busy than the other times we were there. They wanted to charge $200 for alterations, which is highway robbery considering I only needed the sides taken in and the hem taken up about 6 inches. I bought the dress and never went back – I had a private seamstress do the alterations and steaming and pressing for $30 grand total. Avoid David's Bridal if you can.
