I was hesitant about coming to this shop because of a lot of negative reviews I read online... but I have to say, it was actually my best experience in shopping for my wedding dress! I'm a plus size bride and a good amount of bridal stores I went to had a very limited selection for me to try on, which really discouraged and disappointed me. There are more than just skinny girls getting married in the world!!
New Natalie's has a GREAT selection of gowns for plus size brides! That was the first thing that really got me when I went there, I actually had a chance to try on a lot of dresses because they went higher than a size 18! Of course they have more dresses for girls who are not plus size... but the selection they have is great. I cannot express to you how impressed I was with their selection.
The prices of the gowns are also amazing!! The dress I got from them was the perfect price in my budget.
My consultant, Carty, was also great! She was very nice and friendly. She never pressured me into purchasing a gown. In fact, no one at the store did, which I think is great because this is not something you should be pressured into doing.
The only thing I did not care for, is the fact that they do not allow you to take pictures unless you purchase the gown. I understand the whole concept of them not wanting you to steal the dress design to make it yourself... but when you try on so many dresses, they all start to look the same and cannot remember which ones you really liked!
Other than the whole no taking pictures thing... my overall experience was great! I highly recommend New Natalie's for your bridal dress shopping... especially if you're a plus size bride that would like to have a lot of options to try on! :)
