Three weeks ago my entire wedding party piled in the car and headed out to try on Bridesmaid dresses.  We unfortunately went to Bridal and Beyond where we were kicked out when our hour was up.  Obviously we did not accomplish much, but we were able to decide what style of dress the girls like.  (By the way, we were a little annoyed that we got kicked out, when they clearly were not busy, when we all had travelled so far to get there! One girl came from Hamilton, one from Scarborough, one from Stouffville and myself from Vaughan!) We took time out to all get together to try on dresses and we were kicked out!

Enough ranting.......we are going to try it again on Saturday.  This time we want to go to a good place that has a good selection of dresses and will make an appointment. Since we can only all get together on a Saturday, we need an appointment!!

Does anyone have any suggestions from past experience? We would prefer to stay in Vaughan this time! Thanks!

Its probably best you did not order from B&B. I was there 2 weeks ago, and ran into a familf member of FH. She was in a bridal party there for their fitting....the dresses were HORRIBLE! All several sizes too big (too big to even alter to the right size) the edges were unfinished...ect, and the wedding was in 2 weeks! The staff barely seemed to help or take any responsibility. I felt sooo bad. I know alot of great stores, but none seemed to have a huge selection. Although I have heard good things about Dormel in Oakville. My other suggestion is chek out websites...find your faves and then call stores to see if they have that sample in stock, thats what worked best fo us, as many seemed to have small selection. Good Luck
