David's Bridal as a company has an 85% satisfaction rate.....which suggests that your poor experiences are in the vast vast vast minority. Claiming all David's Bridals are scammers couldn't be further from the truth. ________________ You are right, EVERY bride should be offered a bra and slip to try on with her dress the first time in the store because the dresses just don't sit right without them. They are designed to fit over our undergarments. And, although you would probably want to after your dress has been fitted to them, you DON'T have to purchase undergarments in order to try them on with your dress. AND your consultant should have informed you to bring your shoes and slip to your fitting in the first place AND offered to help you to find the perfect shoes and slip before you EVER tried on a dress. I'm sorry for your bad experience, I honestly am. Especially when I know our store works so much harder to please and we have to share a name with the store you worked with. I'd ask for the corporate hot line if I were you and give them a call so they can straighten out this embarrassment of a David's Bridal. We are NOT in the business of scamming, I assure you.

I am sorry that another bride has had the same sort of problems I had. I too was never helped, even when I had reserved time, and bought all of the dresses for my wedding there. It was a great deal at first, until I went in and had to buy all my undergarments there, and all of my girls dresses AND MINE were falling apart before I even got out of the limo! My train had to be pinned in place during my reception, and even then people were stepping on bits of it since the ribbonwork was tearing away as they only tacked it in place. I will write more later, but I know from personal experience how awful they are. Nothing worse than falling in love with a dress and being taken for a ride. In fact, one of my girls dresses didn't even come in until the DAY BEFORE MY WEDDING. Then, they tried to charge me a rush fee when they were the ones who lost the dress! They are despicable, I only had 2 people who helped me at all, and any time I had finally narrowed myself to one salesperson, they would leave or get fired. Nice turn-over rate.
