Maybe I didn't explain myself well? It may have had more to do with that particular store--and the fact that I strode in, sans wedding party, knowing exactly what I wanted, and they were dealing with two other parties (including mothers) and a girl going to prom. <br /><br />I agree about the polyester though. I would have danced for much longer had I been wearing linen, although I probably wouldn't have looked so good!Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05920700810347852037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16913692.post-83836014095140677012010-06-07T19:31:42.741-04:002010-06-07T19:31:42.741-04:00Having culled through pages upon pages and website...Having culled through pages upon pages and website upon website on behalf of my bridesmaids, should any of them had wanted helping in chosing thier own ensembles, I can tell you David's Bridal is probably the LEAST painful of the bridal nightmare out there. Compared to other boutiques, and even the most prevalent department stores, they are actually quite reasonably priced. And in our brainwashed "everyone must match" wedding mentality, they do an excellent job of easing the wedding party's mind. <br /><br />Not everyone is as talented with a needle (and judging by those I've seen work at the store, I'm sure your alterations were much cleaner and more percise)...but imagine the wrath they would face from some bride or bridesmaid the day of the event should the person opted NOT to try the garment on. They really are just covering their bases, and trying to treat the bride like the pampered princess most of them feel they should be.<br /><br />Don't bo too hard on this particular entity of the horrific wedding market. What they do, they do well...they fill their particular niche well.<br /><br /><br />And they've come to the rescue many a time for shows with the large off the rack section your particular store seemed to be lacking. <br /><br />I just wish everything wasn't polyester...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12456582802798016297noreply@blogger.com
