Worst Experience Ever!!! I would rather buy a used car.

by courtney123 at Citysearch

I called and spoke with the store twice regarding a specific dress and a designer and scheduled an appointment for the next day. The girl on the phone was lovely, but when I arrived no one else was. I had to explain to two different associates 3 times each that I already had an appointment. I left after 10 minutes because they were so rude and I was offended. I knew they did not have the dress I wanted but wanted to see similar ones. Neither of the asso. would shut up long enough for me to even explain what I wanted to see. They actually would not shut up long enough to gather their thoughts and make coherent sentences. Then before they even knew my name they told me I could not afford a dress from that designer. They asked if I was going to buy something, before I could tell them that was why I was here to look I was told I could not try anything on if not. How would I know if I wanted to buy something if they would not even show me anything. There are much nicer stores with associates who actually want to be helpful. Skip this one.

• Pros: ummm can think of none
• Cons: hateful, rude, insulting staff

Thank you

I just wanted to thank you so much for my dress it is more beautiful than I imagined. Laura, I don't know if you remember me, but I was the bride that ordered the Pattis style 9868, then I called back and asked you to hold up on the order, then I came back to look at it again with my girlfriend, because she had taken a picture at a bad angle. Well the dress could not have looked any better, after review, everyone agreed that the dress made me look stunning. My Mother was not able to visit Atlanta, but saw pictures of the dress you send via e-mail and agreed it is beautiful. You made the experience so comfortable from start to finish and I recommend La Raine's Bridal to all my friends and acquaintances. Now am looking forward to the dress coming in and to try it on for the first time. Thank you to Laura and everybody at La Raine's

• Pros: best selection

My favorite part of the wedding planning process

I HIGHLY recommend La Raines. I had an amazing experience buying my bridal gown here, the entire process was delightful from beginning to end. Before I committed to purchasing the dress, Kimberly was so kind and patient with me at the beginning and let me come back and try it on a number of times before ordering, just to be sure. They have a huge selection of absolutely stunning dresses and these incredibly charming dressing rooms that make you feel like a princess.

Now that the dress is in and i've finished up with all of the alterations, I have to say a big THANK YOU to La Raine herself, Kimberly, and especially their head alterationist, Coron. They were SO incredibly caring and attentive to me every time i went in for a fitting. I really felt that they were personally invested in me, my dress and my wedding. I haven't received such special attention from any of my other vendors throughout the process. Coron did an amazing job fitting the dress to my body just the way I wanted it. I loved my dress more and more every time I went back. All of them gave great advice for the entire look and style i was going for. It was a truly an amazing experience for a truly amazing dress.

Thank you!!

• Pros: Caring, attentive and knowledgable staff
