Melissa’s Bridal & Formal Fantasy

My little sister bought her wedding dress at Melissa’s, and accordingly, we all got our bridesmaids dresses from the same shop.
The staff at Melissa’s is super friendly, helpful, organized and on-​point. No misplaced orders and dresses always delivered in a timely fashion. They’re all more than willing to help and offer suggestions with fittings, etc.
They made me feel like a princess while trying on bridesmaids dresses, so I can only imagine how great they make the brides feel when they’re trying on wedding gowns. At the same time, Melissa and her crew were very frank with me, and if something didn’t look good, they told me so (nicely, of course).
I got my dress altered elsewhere but hung around with my sister as she got her wedding dress alterations — the seamstress was extremely detail-​oriented and thorough. And full of great stories!
I would recommend Melissa’s to any locals on the hunt for wedding, bridesmaid or homecoming/​prom dresses!

I found Melissa’s Bridal and Formal Fantasy while looking for a dress for the Navy submarine ball. When I walked in, I could feel that Melissa is very friendly and down-​to-​earth. I had stopped by briefly a week earlier to check out the selection and let her know what kind of gown I need.
When I came in to start my search, she had already put a few dresses aside for me that fit my needs. I really like that she let me look as much as I wanted without bothering me or looking over my shoulder, since I like to do my own thing when I’m shopping. While I tried on gowns, she gave me good honest opinions but was not pushy. Everything felt easy and fun, and Melissa was able to give me a good idea of how in-​depth the alterations would be on a given gown.
After trying on many gowns I settled on a gorgeous fitted number that is everything I wanted! Melissa could see my positve reaction, and she and her associate both agreed that it was the best one I’d tried. Although the dress is reasonably priced, she let me make payments on it, which works for me since I’m a girl on a budget.
I would recommend Melissa’s to anyone in need of a dress for any occasion (she carries everything from cute cocktail dresses to fabulous bridal fare). They also have a seamstress on-​site to carry out all alterations and they take appointments. Based on my experience, I would say that Melissa’s is an asset to the community.
