When it came time to shopping for my wedding dress, I knew the only person I needed by my side was my mom. We needed to stay within budget ($1500 - $2000), but also wanted the personalized service, which we realized would be hard to come by!
Our expectations were beyond what we had wanted at Lana Addison! We made an appointment and as soon as we walked through the adorable purple front door, we were greeted and offered a beverage (a purple champagne drink!) and a cozy seat. They had an excellent selection of wedding dresses that would fit any bride's style (I did not want strapless!!!). My consultant, Cristina, brought out gowns that I had pictures of and gowns that were similar to the style that I liked. The first one I tried on (of about 7-8) I knew was the one (Pronovias Gaudi), but there was no pressure to buy, in fact we were encouraged to be on the look out for trunk shows!
We came in a couple weeks later for the Pronovias Trunk Show and ordered the gown. This was in May '10, and I knew it would take several months to have the gown in my possession, but man was I antsy! The dress arrived in Jan '11 and I had my first fitting. I only had one other fitting after that and the dress was perfect by March for my May wedding!
Because of my amazing experience at Lana Addison, I have been telling brides and soon-to-be brides to remember to go here to shop for a wedding dress. Lana Addison fit my budget and style!
