Not Happy

I did not have a good experience with ida at all. My entire bridal party got their dresses and tuxs' from ida's. She did not order the tuxs untill the monday before the wedding! Then their was a problem with both my father and father in law's tuxs (the vests did not fit) and one of our grooms men ended up with pants 5 sizes too big. Needless to say the short time between the arrival of the tuxs and the wedding was very stressful, especially with all the problems that seeemed to be happening. My bridesmaid's all got their dresses in a timely manner but alterations seemed rushed and poor quality. One of my girls had spaghetti straps added to her dress and they were sewn on in a very poor manner, i had to even fix one on the day of the wedding 10 minutes before the ceremony. I purchased my dress from another retailer before i found ida, and bought it off the rack because it fit perfectly. I had gained weight in the 7 months since i bought the dress and it had to be let out, and hemed. Ida told me originally a very low price for the alterations when i explained what i needed done. Then after the alterations were complete the price sky-rocketed to $250! What could i do but pay, i needed my dress for the wedding.

Like previous posts, i noticed there were no prices on most of the dresses. I believe she makes them up on the spot. I would never go back there and i would never recommend anyone to go there. If you want to buy a dress and she is the only one who has it, buy it and take it somewhere else to get the alterations done.

Extreamly overpriced, and in my oppinion, poor quality. I am extreamly unhappy with my experience here.
