Dear Wedding Shoppe, Years ago Bria & Anne used to play dress up then finally last year they got to do the real thing for their junior prom. With 2 moms in tow we headed to the Wedding Shoppe where we had a wonderful experience! The girls had lots of dresses to choose from and they each found exactly the right ones. It was like both dresses were made for our daughters. When they put them on it was magical and we all knew it. This year we made the same trek down to the Wedding Shoppe. Sure enough, we found two perfect dresses for their senior prom. We moms had a great time with our daughters laughing at the wrong styles and colors and helping our daughters choose their magical dresses. Thanks Wedding Shoppe for making both proms extra special and for giving us some fun mother - daughter time! Sincerely, Cathy Storey & Lonnie Johnson (Moms to Anne & Bria)

Hi, my name is Christy Hollingsworth, (married name is now Christy Strom, but I’m still getting used to that!) and I married my Aaron on September 25, 2010. I call him “my Aaron” because I have a sister who is also named Erin and because no one ever knows who I am talking about I differentiate between the two by “my Aaron” and “sister Aaron”. I purchased my dress a little over a year before our wedding date. I had found it in a magazine and called all over MN to find a store that had it on stock and no one did. I’ve heard the reputation that the Wedding Shoppe has and really wanted to do business with there so after trying on a few dresses to no avail, I brought in the picture of the one I had found in the magazine. They found a similar dress by the same designer so I was able to see if the shape and look worked for me and after a lot of thinking, I ordered the dress without even trying it on. I loved the picture so much so I just prayed I would love it on me as well! It came in and it magically fit me the way I had hoped. I didn’t really think too much about the dress after that until I was being fitted because I wasn’t too thrilled with the way the bustle looked. It seemed to take away the look of the dress because the train wasn’t very long to begin with and with the bustle it looked like a straight up and down dress with no flare at the bottom. I decided not to bustle it because of that, but I admit I was a little worried that I wasn’t as in love with the dress as I was to begin with. All of that changed though on the wedding day, putting everything together from the shoes to the jewelry to the veil, it was PERFECT. I have never felt more beautiful in my life! I wore my dress with pride that day and think I love it even more now than I did in the beginning. I had so many compliments on how it suited ME and my personality so I think I can say I know myself pretty darn well to be able to order my wedding dress without even trying it on! We had a fabulous celebration and the look on Aaron’s face when we first saw each other is something I will never forget. His tears of happiness and love will forever be a favorite memory of our wedding day. Thank you very much for your wedding guidance and to the custom fitting team in helping my dress fit me perfectly! Sincerely, Christy Strom

The Wedding Shoppe Inc is a great place to go if you are searching for your wedding party attire. They certainly helped the entire wedding party; I was involved with, from the bride’s dress to the groomsmen tuxes. My three best friends and I went, along with the bride’s mother to pick out bridesmaid dresses. The two other bridesmaids and I had been looking for months on the website trying to gather ideas for the dresses, we had limited parameters from the bride; midnight blue was the color, and we had decided on a cocktail length dress. Therefore, when we went into The Wedding Shoppe for our appointment, the consultant was very helpful in pointing us towards the best designers who would have just the perfect color. All three bridesmaids have very different body styles; one is 5’9” and the other two are 5’3”. The consultant was extremely helpful in knowing that we just needed to begin to try on dresses until we found the perfect one for all three of us! Lucky we did! When taking our measurements, the consultant was great, she really made you think about what size to get, which would look best on you, not worrying about the numbers! She then pointed out the vender finder on the website, where we could find an alterations specialist, if we needed one after the dresses came in. I defiantly used the vender finder; I knew I would need to have my dress shortened, even at the cocktail length. I used the website to find a vendor who would be not only affordable but close to where I lived making appointments very convenient. All in all The Wedding Shoppe, Inc is a wonderful store with a very attentive and dedicated staff. I thank them for all their help and I cannot wait to use them for the time when my special day comes!
