Fantasy Weddings By Anna Marie

Horrible. In march I had appointment at the bridal suite as well as fantasy weddings by Anna Marie. I went to the bridal suite and they were absolutely wonderful. Booked me for an hour and we pulled about 10 dresses...by the 3rd one, I knew the 2nd one was the one and did t even bother trying on any others. The bridal suite worked with my budget and all.\r \r I wanted to try other places, so next up we went to fantasy weddings. I walked in with my grandmother and mother and it took them a few minutes to even greet me. I didn't feel like there was a point to making an appointment when the girl didn't even care about me. They didn't care about my budget....just kept shoving dresses at me and if I didn't like one, it seemed to be a ""problem"" for the girl.\r \r She was rough with zippering up my dress and told me I looked good in the expensive dresses, not the ones My family thought I looked good in that were in my budget. \r \r I walked out and called the bridal suite and said I'm coming back and buying the dress...I don't ever want to have an experience at another store after the fantasy weddings spot. \r \r I needed to find shoes, and even though they have large selection, I didn't want to set foot into that store again.\r \r It took me 6 months to consider giving them another try, for my moms dress.we went today, and it was the same experience. Rude rude rude. I saw the way they were with another bride who said she had an appointment and they didn't even know her name or why she was coming...the poor bride had to state she was coming for her second fitting.\r \r I went to the bridal suite and Silvanna remembered me after 6 months and remembered my veil and all the details....and that bridal shop is busy!!\r \r All in all, don't waste your time at Fantasy Weddings...drive down a few miles to The Bridal Suite off rt. 33 more

I was recently married and found both the service and selection to be far superior than the 10 or so bridal shops that I had visited - in short, had I started here, I would have never had to go anywhere else for my wedding gown. Leah was my attendant - she was friendly and picked my dream wedding dress in just one try. When my mom and I subsequently visited the shop to see the dress again, I had several women in the shop help me make my final decision in a fun and non-invasive way. My alterations were $250 (about the going rate) and were pitch perfect. They were also very helpful in setting up appropriate fittings and having numerous matching accessories for my dress. The dress is gorgeous and felt one-of-a-kind. My post here is my tremendous thanks to all that Fantasy Weddings did for me. more

I went to Fantasy Weddings by Anna Marie to get my wedding dress. What impressed me the most was their friendliness about letting me walk in and try on all the dresses I wanted. I narrowed it down to two dresses and then because they were two different prices... I opted for the less expensive quote. At the end of the day the seamstress who straight up lied to me over and over again charged me almost $300 more than I had originally been told. No sweat though, because I thought, what's an extra $300 on top of the tens of thousands of dollars I was already spending. The dress is going to look great right? WRONG. The seamstress told me time and time again that she could fit the dress to me perfectly (after all she's been doing this for over 20 years and made her own dresses before that), but I was never happy with all the gathering at the umpire waste line. She continued to tell me there's nothing she can do... that I am not 5'7"" so it's just going to be like that. When I asked her why she talked me into this dress over the other original dress she told me that I had my heart set on this dress (really? you're going to lie to me about how I felt and the conversation we had... that's a little much, don't you think?). At the end of the day, I am not 5'7"" so the gathering shows up big time in all my pictures, both action and posed shots. Very disappointing. I paid a lot of money for the alterations to have her tell me there's nothing she can do. And when I talked to another seamstress I was told there is something she could have done... it would just have been time consuming. So basically she charged me for a service she did not provide and come to think about it complained about how long it took her to do the alterations she actually did. (maybe she did. Whenever I didn't like something, IE- my shoulder strap being sewn on twisted, she complained about her assistant's work. I feel like I just got out of a horrible relationship and would only tell those who are 5'7"" (god bless you) that Fantasy Weddings is a great bridal shop. Just be careful and know that their follow through goes out the door once they have your money. (another fun story - they almost gave my maid of honor another maids dress (even though it was 4 sizes too small) and when at the last second my maid of honor and I figured out their mistake, we asked what would have happened if the bridesmaids dress would have been altered..... their response, the bridesmaid whose dress it actually was would have to pay extra to get my maid of honor's dress taken down the 4 sizes) Two thumbs down more
