I had a great dress experience at Ashley's. I originally tried on dresses there and thought it was a nice place even though I didn't find something I liked the first time. After finding my dress at another salon that had some unsettling reviews I headed back to Ashley's to order. Everyone in the salon was very nice and helpful. Connie was awesome with all my alterations over 5 fittings. Her attention to detail and skill was apparent and put me at ease. I would definitely recommend Ashley's to any bride in the area looking for a dress.

Connie and Jon at Ashley's were wonderful in providing not only my bridal gown, but the bridesmaids dresses and my mother's dress as well. After not being able to find what I wanted, Connie worked with for 8 months in creating my dream dress. I found a dress in their shop that had the silhouette i was looking for and then Connie pretty much deconstructed the whole thing and created a gorgeous one-of-a-kind gown for me. I can't thank her enough for all her hard work and patience as she made the dress I was looking for and couldn't find! Their prices were also the most reasonable in majority of shops we went to and we went EVERYWHERE. The store itself is small and out-dated and at first is a little off-putting, but they have great prices and can order you in almost anything. Highly recommend Ashley's!!!

We used Ashley's for just about every aspect of our wedding attire: my gown, all of my bridesmaids' dresses, my mother's dress, all alterations, and all tuxedos (groom, groomsmen, fathers). Aside from a couple minor (AKA easily fixed) issues, everything went exceptionally well. The owner, John, was always so pleasant and accommodating. He also has a fabulous eye - I was convinced I wanted something completely different, but he selected a gown for me "just to try" and it was absolutely the one! (I also found that same gown at a nearby salon, and it was about $300 cheaper at Ashley's :)John's wife Connie does the alterations, and she is definitely competent with a needle and thread. She did an excellent job with everyone's dresses, and when there were things we weren't happy with, without hesitation she was willing to make the changes that we requested. Overall I was very pleased with Ashley's.

We got the bridesmaids dresses at Ashley's Bridal and were very happy with the dresses and the ease of finding dresses. The owner was very helpful. The only issue we had with the shop is that I believe the measurements were taken incorrectly because all of the dresses were 1 or 2 sizes too big. Other than that, we were very happy and pleased with the shop. They are very accommodating and easy to work with if you have out of town bridesmaids. The online ordering made it very easy for one of my bridesmaid who couldn’t make it up for the fitting.

We all loved Ashley's Bridal. I had 12 dress fitting for my bridal gown and it fit like a glove at the wedding! Connie & Jon are perfect! We did the bridal gown, bridesmaids dresses, and tuxedos at Ashley's and everything turned out perfect! The bridesmaids dresses were great! There was a small issue with the tuxedos but it got resolved quickly and in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend to everyone!

Ashley's Bridal was a total pleasure to work with. We got all the tuxes for the groom, groomsmen, and dads from Ashley's. The tuxes looked amazing and we had no problems with sizes or rips or anything coming incomplete. Ashley's had flexible hours that were easy to work with, which was really helpful to us.

I came to Ashley's because I saw a dress on display at a bridal show that I fell in love with-and it's the one I ended up getting by a designer only sold at Ashley's. It was my dream dress and I am so glad I got it. However, the tuxes were WAY overpriced-and they didn't tell me the total until I went to pick them up and paid $180 for each of them. They do a "package" if you get everything through them-but it's not worth it at all. I was overcharged for my alterations, tiara, veil, bridesmaid dresses and tuxes and I didn't feel like they were honest with me about all of the prices. The service is great and I loved my dress..,.but I would advise people to look around for their dresses/tuxes instead of getting them all from one place.

Out of all of my wedding vendors, THIS boutique was my favorite!! The selection is good, the prices are good (I bought mine off the rack for a discount) and the seamstress has FLAWLESS attention to detail at a great value. A+++++.

I visited this shop to purchase a cake toper, specifically cake jewelry. The gentleman who apparently runs the shop was exceptionally rude to my mother and I, but since he was the only shop in our area to carry the pieces we wanted, we ordered with him anyway. I had to place the order out of a cataloge and was shown some sample pieces. The order was placed 6 weeks prior to my wedding and we were told it would take 2 weeks to come in. The piece did not come in until 7 days prior to my wedding and the owner left a message that I had to pick the item up that same day because he was going on vacation and would be closed for a week starting the next day. The item we ordered looked cheap and was completely unsatisfactory. When we called him about the item (my fiance picked it up and didn't know any better), the owner told us there was a no returns policy and in essence that it was not his problem that the item was unusable and looked like a craft project.

Love Ashleys Bridal and I would recommend them to anyone.It all started when I was looking for a specifict dress, Sebelle by Maggie Sattero but I couldnt find sample anywhere. For some reason the first time I walked in to Ashelys and met John & Connie I knew that I wanted to order from them. I found a sample somewhwere else, I ordered from Ashleys. Not only were John & Connie great and helpful when ordering - they also gave me a better price. Some months went by, my dress came in . I had a major misunderstanding but instead of ignoring me Connie - went all out and showed me what I did see. She understands how much stress brides are under. My dress was beautiful but just like everyone else, I wanted to make it different... Connie spend few months helping me create the wedding dress of my dreams - not only did she alter it, but she also helped me design few things. Over the period of 12 months, Connie & John became more than just some people that own a store where I bought my dress but so much more! John also, took care of my husband, fathers & groomsmen in terms of tuxidos. I would highly recommend Ashleys bridal to any bride and not just because of lower prices but also because John & Connie treat you like family...

I went to Ashley's Bridal on a recommendation from another bride. They had a great selection right in my price range and the salesperson was very helpful. The woman who did the alterations was a little flighty and no one told us before the final fitting that we had to pay cash for alterations, which meant my mother had to run out in the middle of the appointment to find an atm. I think you get what you pay for - its no Kleinfeld's in NYC. But the dressing rooms were clean, the staff was friendly, and we had a nice experience with them.

John and Connie are fantastic. I found my gown at another bridal shop but called to price it to see if I could get any deals on it since it was out of season. I went with Ashley's because a) I read fantastic reviews; b) they are literally down the street from my house and c) they were running a special at the time I bought my dress for a flat fee for alterations. Since I only needed a bustle, hem and some taken in at the top, it was great! The dress looked amazing and Connie is an awesome seamstress.

Ashley's Bridal was great. They made it very easy to find the perfect dress. Connie did great with my wedding dress alterations (which was done in 3 days!!). I loved my dress and could not have been happier with my dress shopping experience. I would recommend using Ashley's Bridal!

My husband and I were married May 2009. I absolutely LOVED the gown I purchased from Ashley's Bridal! The staff (Connie, John, Rosemary, & others) were fantastic throughout the whole process. I also used Ashley's Bridal for my bridesmaids' dresses. Due to the fact we were married during prime wedding/prom season, I experienced some difficulty scheduling appointments. But overall, I was very pleased with their services and felt they were reasonably priced.

John and Connie have been extremely helpful from day one. They were able to get my dress for me after I was told it was by many stores that it was discontinued. We have used Ashley's services for dresses,tuxedos,and invitations based on the great price packages put together to help keep costs down. Both John and Connie are always there with helpful advice and a smile. I never leave there disappointed.

I ordered my wedding gown, Mother of the bride gown, and flower girl gown from this store. I had a positive experience with the first 2 dresses, but the flower girl dress was an absolute nightmare. The dress came later than promised and was ordered in the wrong colors. The replacement dress came in 9 days before the wedding. The seamstress made an appointment for a fitting the Monday before the wedding, and the appointment was confirmed on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday via phone...she still stood up the appointment! Her husband/co-owner told me it was my misunderstanding and asked if I could come back which was impossible because I did not have access to my flower girl until the day of the wedding (which was stated repeatedly during the whole process). I told the husband to have his wife hem the bottom of the dress 1 cm and when I went to pick it up...I was charged full price even though the seamstress never fitted the dress personally or apologized for standing me up. When I asked a sales rep to speak with the seamstress because I was upset, I was told, "She will not be coming out, but you don't have to pay for the alterations" If she had been honest about not keeping my Monday appointment, I could have picked up my dress Friday, and taken my flower girl with the dress to a different seamstress for alterations (Monday was my only day with the girl). I literally held my breath on the wedding day hoping it would fit due to their piss poor customer service.

I went to about 10 different Bridal Shops before I found Ashley's. Every single one of them I did not get the "wow" factor with. I contacted the owner about the dress I absolutely loved and from then on I was amazed...even though they did not carry that particular dress they bent over backwards to ensure that I got it. I did know to order way ahead of time because this was an out of season dress, so there was no issue there. I ordered my dress, my veil and had my alterations done there. All the employees were very pleasant and the prices were incredible. The alterations were done so quick I couldn't believe it, it was a perfect fit. Everything about the place was just impeccable. I will recommend Ashley's to not only brides, but those who are looking for formal wear as well as I was extremely pleased by every last detail. Although I will not need another bridal gown I will be sure that I will go there again if I need any type of formal wear.

Absolutely love this store and would recommend them to anyone. Connie was absolutely wonderful with my fittings. She takes her time to make sure you look stunning on your special day. They were really great with getting my bridesmaids dresses too. Loved everything about them!
