I have an heirloom wedding band. My husband and I wanted to find an engagement ring that matched the band. I prefer a smaller, intimate shopping experience as opposed to large chain stores, so I went to D & M Perlman in West Dundee. The owner attempted to sell me a ring that didn’t match my band. The jewelry designer stepped in and told me she could create a custom piece to match the band exactly. I was very happy with the piece she created. 3 stars

I purchased my wedding gown and a flower girl gown from A’lamour Bridal in Barrington. Although the staff acted a bit pretentious, they had a beautiful selection and fair prices. I had a more informal wedding, so I purchased a Vera Wang bridesmaid gown for myself. Everything arrived on time and as ordered. The store did not have a lot of curb appeal, however, for the designer gown price tags and their target clientele.
