I love Expressions Bridal. The people are so nice, patient, professional, and helpful. They have a dress for every bride in their store, no matter what style,size or shape you are. Everyone there is friendly. I even ordered the bridesmaids dresses from there and was very pleased with their service. My overall experience was wonderful.

When it came down to my gown... I had no issues whatsoever. My dress was beautiful and delivered on time. It fit great too! I had 6 girls in my wedding... and we had 3 issues with dresses. One came in with stains, one had buttons fall off, and one was improperly fitted by a worker and came in a size too small. It took a little bit of fighting to get them to rectify the problems- They have a strict no return policy and they dresses come in with barely any time to order a new dress should something like this arise. Some staff was a little rude... some staff there was very nice and helpful, as you get with any company. If you talk to anyone there, I recommend seeing Melissa! She rocks and is on top of her game and gets stuff done.

I had a wonderful experience at Expressions from the very beginning. I tried on several dresses at different stores and they did not make me feel pressured to choose them. My maid of honor and I really enjoyed being able to browse the store on our own and pick out as many dresses as we wanted. They also pulled a few that they thought we might like. In the end they had some of the best service compared to the other stores I looked at. They also had a large enough selection to find something without being too overwhelmed by the number of dresses. They ordered my dress and it was in within a week of their estimated time. I tried it on several times and I also did my fittings there which was nice because I liked having the dress in the same place. Right before the wedding they steamed it too! The whole experience was fabulous. They were professional and courteous during the whole experience! There were lots of hugs at the end!!
I was not able to get my bridesmaids dresses there because they did not have any of the 5 we wanted to try on from Alfred Angelo so we went elsewhere for those. They would have been able to order them but we wanted to try them on first.
Great job to all the ladies at Expressions!!

The staff at expressions were so nice and helpful. They never rushed me or tried to sell me on a dress that I wasn't sure about. Also, the alterations woman who works out of there was very nice and patient, and did my alterations for a reasonable price.

This place was awesome!!! This place exceeded my expectations a million times over. The ladies there were so nice, friendly and fun! The don't work on commission so they are not pressured to make a sale. I had such a pleasant experience each time going in the showroom, I would definately go back for any formal wear purchase. The prices were reasonable considering I purchased my wedding gown and two of my bridesmaids dresses from them. I love the communication and ease they made the whole process for me. I was please with the selection of dresses that they had to choose from even though I bought the second dress I tried on! Can't wait to do business with them again!

I was so impressed with Expressions. I was able to look at as many dresses as I wanted and the women there were so helpful and great to work with. They helped me find dresses in the styles that I knew I liked, but also offered me some alternatives, just so I wasn’t limiting my search. I had a great time trying on dresses (and this is from someone who hates shopping simply because trying on clothes is so annoying) and I found the perfect dress on my first attempt to start looking to see what was out there. Shopping at Expressions was a great experience and I’d definitely recommend starting your search there (and likely ending it).
GUEST




Loved working with the ladies at Expressions. I absolutely love my dress that I got from them! Excellent service from everyone I dealt with. They made the dress shopping process so easy, and offer everything a bride needs for the day, and even the cleaning and preservation after the wedding. Highly recommend!

I found the most beautiful wedding gown at Expressions Bridal. I was looking for the perfect gown and on whim I happen to drive pass Expressions and decided to turn around and check them out, but I saw a sign saying that you need a appointment to be seen and I said to myself I'm going in any way. The staff greeted me any way without an appointment. I was so impressed with all of the gowns that they had in the store. The staff made me feel very relaxed,comfortable and at ease about what color, style,design of gown that fit my personality and my body. Thanks to all of the staff at Expressions Bridal& Formal for all of your service that you have provided for me and most of all thanks for making me laugh, because I needed that the most.

My initial thought of this shop was negative due to a comment made when I first walked in. I only had two and a half months before my wedding and I was told that I "should" have started looking six months ago. I was only engaged 3 months ago. I would have walked out but my sister and my mom were there to help me navigate the tons of dresses. Turns out that the salesperson finally was able to find a dress for me that I totally fell in love with. It was a beautiful gown that I bought off the rack. Then the alterations went perfectly. Jo was amazing and so wonderful to work with. She made the rest of the experience amazing. Thanks Jo.

Melissa is the go to girl!Went back to try on one of my two favorites and found it on the off the rack! It was half price! I have no regrets it was "my dress". Seriously, ask for Melissa or even better call and find out when you can meet with her. Any other even the manager was a waste of time. She spent half the time on the phone during one fitting and the next visit I had to repeatedly ask for items while the sales lady helped other customers who had come in after me!

First- THANK YOU for making appointments.
Now that I have that out of the way....
Expressions Bridal and Formal was one of the best decisions I could ever have made as a bride. I was married on July 2, 2011, but my journey with my dress began back in September of 2010. It was there that I met the owner, and also when I met Denise. Trying on dresses is stressful, there are times when you want to cry because the size 0 sample barely fits over your rear or other times when that big poufy princess dress does not look right on your 5'4" frame. Yet, when you know its the one, it really is.
I bought an Essense of Australia dress from this store and it was the one piece I wore that made me truly feel like a beautiful bride. The staff even sighs when they know its the one (they see it on your face!) But, aside from the unbelievably beautiful attire they have for brides, maids, and mothers, they also truly cater to making the bride feel special. Upon entering the store the girls would actually KNOW my name. They would celebrate my excitement and also help me with any problems. Alterations are also available in house and were unbelievably reasonable! The steaming service was phenomenal and completely prompt. Brides - if you want the perfect dress, the most personalized service, and the beginning of your adventure with your dress to be one in a million - than this is where you head.
To the gals in the store - thank you for all you have done for me in helping provide me the perfect dress!

Expressions Bridal went above and beyond for myself and all my bridesmaids. They got everything in on time, even though we ordered the girls dresses late. The sized everyone prefectly... most only needed hemmed. The seamstress was awesome and a quick turn-around time!!!
My dress was unbelieveable. They gave honest opinions about each dress I tried on and would spend hours with me everytime that I was there. I even got my shoes from there... the dye job matched my off white dress perfectly!!! I had such great service there, I ordered my bridesmaid dress for a wedding Im a part of in September from there!!!
GUEST




I was so happy that I had an experience with Expressions Bridal & Formal.The boutique was specious and carry all kinds of gorgeous pieces. And I loved atmosphere in it - very relaxing and stuff is very helpful.
GUEST




Excellent service!! I love this little bridal shop as opposed to the big chains. The staff was fantastic and very upbeat. The lady helping us try on dresses was very helpful and ready to bring over as many dresses as I wanted. I went in for their $99 gown sale and got my dress for just that!! But, even still, I don't think I saw a dress in there that was over $1000. Dresses were beautiful and I had so much fun trying them on! Alterations were reasonably priced and done very well. I would highly recommend this store to anyone!

I got my bridesmaid dresses from expressions but not my gown, I got my gown at David's Bridal. But I really wanted Alfred Angelo bridesmaid dresses and expressions was the closest shop to me that had them. They made it really easy for me to order dresses for all my out of town bridesmaids. I did have to keep calling to check up on delivery because they were later than expected. You just have to allow plenty of time for these special orders. The staff was friendly.




I chose to purchase my wedding dress here because the shop was small enough to give me very personal attention, but yet I was always helped, and they were willing to order something that wasn't on their racks. Plus I got 10% off. I actually found my dress elsewhere, but felt that these people were more accommodating.
I also had my fitting done here, very professional - however, they tell you all the time you do not need an appointment to come in, but you DO need one for your fitting. That was the only problem I had with them.
I also got my bridesmaids dresses through them, and each girl was given a certain percent off because I bought my dress there. Plus there were discounts for shoes and other accessories.
We even got our groom and groomsmen, ushers and fathers attire here. They were quite willing to work with our vast array of colors and were willing to accept fittings via email or phone.
Lastly, we got the flower girl and ring bearer here, too.
Everything arrived on time, and in perfect condition.

They are great! And you can't beat the price--I got my dress for $100 off the marked price during a sale they were having. $100 can make a big difference to those on a budget. Their staff were very courteous and alterations are included in the price. When I got my dress it fit perfectly! They will press it right before your wedding and have it back to you within 48 hours. I tried my dress on at another location as well but chose Expressions because they had a great deal, a great location for me, and great customer service.
Highly recommend!!

Expressions was the fourth dress shop I visited and is where I found my dress for the big day. I thought I knew what I was looking for, but the staff was very helpful and without them I would not have found the perfect dress. I never would have picked the dress off the rack, but they insisted that I try it on anyway and I fell in love when I saw myself in it.
GUEST




This was the first bridal shop I went to and I fell in love. The big David's Bridal and Catan's just didn't do it for me after the personal service I received at Expressions. The helped me try on 14 dresses--I picked 4 that were my "favorites" and went in 2 times a week for several months to try them on so I could make my decision. Once I chose a dress, I ordered it (almost 1 year from the date, give or take a week or so). The expected delivery date was 6 months--it took almost 9 for it to come in. When I called Marcy in a panic because my dress hadn't come in, she assured me that it was coming, and took the initiative to call the company every week until it was delivered! They are awesome!
GUEST




Absolutely wonderful to work with!!! I mostly dealt with the owner of the store and she is absolutely phenomenal! Depending on what you are looking for, can get a little pricey. However, the service makes up for any extra cash spent! I would recommend this vendor to anyone. Used Expressions to purchase my wedding gown and all 5 of my bridesmaid gowns.
GUEST




Well I have mixed reviews. The people that work there are very rude and will let you wait in the dressing room without asking if you need any help. I found my dress there and it was reasonably priced because I found it on the sale rack. Thank gosh I didnt have to order it, they said 4-6 months is the norm.
GUEST




Marcie, the owner, is great. Beautiful dresses with great prices. Multiple discounts available towards multiple items purchased from her.
GUEST
