RK Bridal

Bridesmaid Dresses. Purchased in November from RK Bridal. All BMs (were shipped to different addresses in different states) received before the end of January. We ordered Bari Jay, Styles 411 (MOH) and 638 (BMs). The beauty about these styles is that they look exactly alike in the cut and drape. The only difference is that the MOHs dress has the crystals scattered throughout the bodice whereas the BMs dresses have the stones only at the top of the bodice. Also, the MOHs dress has a corset back and the others did not. It was a way to allow my sister to be somewhat unique without interrupting the flow of the dress styles. I did not find any other companies that offered something like this.

They had a huge selection of dresses and many price ranges to choose from. They get a B because of their lack of customer service… but for the selection and prices, it was definitely worth as I didn’t want my girls to have to pay a fortune for a dress they were going to wear once.

I ordered the dress in their NY retail Store (not online). Service was fine. The saleslady was helpful, but not pushy. The dress was shipped and arrived a week ahead of schedule. I had a good experience with them.

I found my wedding dress at RK Bridal the first time I went looking. It was the third dress I tried on. RK was wonderful and offered a great value for the money.

They were flexible in dealing with me as I got pneumonia before my wedding and had to change a fitting appointment - they rescheduled without a problem.

Juan was my tailor for every fitting and he designed cap sleeves for my dress that matched perfectly.

Everyone there treated us with respect and support.

Dress: A++++++
RKBridal: D

My dress was set to be into their New York store on April 2 and in their initial email to me, I was told to expect the dress to my apartment in LA about a week to 10 days after that. Around April 20, I got concerned and called the store. They said the dress was shipped and I should call back for a tracking number. I call back for the tracking number the following day and was told that the dress had NOT shipped and they did not know where my dress was! Mind you, they are under the impression that my wedding is July 9, 2005 (our original date when I ordered).

After a couple days of calling to harrass them (because they never called with status updates), they finally figured out the dress got sent back to Christina Wu. I finally got the dress, it's in good condition...actually, it's absolutely GORGEOUS and MUCH prettier than the ad pictures. The only reason RKBridal gets a D instead of an F is because they price matched the lowest price I found plus gave me an extra 5% off.

They have the best selection in New York, unless you are looking for high end designer dresses. They don't carry the super high end designers. Gilda was amazing. She was the most helpful salesperson I found in all of New York. My one major complaint was that my dressed shipped AFTER the date they said it should, which cost me extra money to have shipped express.
I wasn't as impressed with their bridesmaid dress customer service, but they certainly have a large selection.

Great bridal shop! The gowns came in a few weeks early which was a really pleasant surprise.

I bought my gown here, in spite of some crazy reviews I've read. My experience was flawless. My gown is beautiful and it was exactly what I wanted. It even fit perfectly!

We only got our bridesmaid dresses through rkbridal.

True to their ad, rkbridal gave us 5% off the lowest price we found (which was through netbride.com). The dress comes with a ribbon in ivory (the one we ordered) or a matching solid ribbon. We filled out the form correctly, but they called me to double-check just to be safe, which I really appreciated. The dresses came in quickly, all the right sizes, no complaints.

I was referred to the site by a friend. Ladies- when I went to the site I fell in love with the gowns. I was a very skeptical about ordering a dress for one of the most important days of my life, but my friend did not steer me wrong. The selection is huge (No I really mean GIGANTIC). You will have a problem deciding, but when you do you will be very happy. You can send them your measurements and they do the rest. The only drawback was that when I got the dress I had to have a few alterations done ( that could have been my mis-measuring), but that was very minor. My local tailor was able to make it perfect.

I know they have gotten some mixed reviews in the past, but I could not be happier! My salesperson, Olga, was wonderful and the alteration process went very well. I even bought my rehearsal dress from them and my mom bought her dress from them and had it altered there. My only word of advice is save your receipts. I bought my dress a year before my wedding and when I went back for alterations they tried to say my dress was not paid in full when it was. I showed them my receipt and they apologized and took care of it immediately. I'm sure it was an honest mistake.

I ordered my bridesmaid dresses from RK Bridal using their no frills policy. They had a 110% guarantee so they provided the lowest prices and I received the dresses without any issues within a few weeks. The only problem is that the dresses were a little big, even though we followed their measuring instructions. Overall their prices were great, and they shipped the products quickly, so I couldn't ask for anything more.

love the huge selection of clothes and love the price range

The retail price for the Bill Levkoff dresses we chose was $240. Received a quote from PerfectBridaldresses.com for $161 plus free shipping and no sales tax. RK matched the quote from Perfect Bridal including the free shipping option plus an additional 5% off ($161). They arrived two weeks earlier than promised.

They saved my brides wedding. I am the maid of honor. We went to Le Bella Couture Atelier in Dobbs Ferry first. They were horrible. total scam. RK bridal came through. We bought the same dress for $325 less.

------A-I was just a bridesmaid and all the dresses were the wrong sizes, who ever measured us, measured wrong! We all had to take the dresses to be altered and I had to pay over 150 at my dry cleaners to size it down 3 sizes!
it is worth paying a little more just for measuring. Everytime the bride called, no one could give an answer if the gowns were in, when she got called, they acted like they were there for months and they arrived that day!!!!I would look around and go elsewhere!

RK BRIDAL...HORRIBLE..>WORST EVER...RIP OFF..UPDATE
Edit Review? By jillian c.
RK BRIDAL was horrible.....A NIGHTMARE...Gilda was a nice salesperson, but they are very pushy...They pressured me into buying my gown. It was exactly what I wanted and they took advantage of that. She pressured me to get it too soon, and when I went home, I found it on HOUSE OF BRIDES.COM for $350.00...when I just bought it from RK BRIDAL for over $1200. Talk about a rip off....I called them immediately because of their no frills, will beat them by 5% policy...well that is only if you didn't purchase it already...they need the info ahead of time...they hadn't even processed order yet and they wouldn't budge....PLus they ordered my dress about 6 sizes too large, and then I found out that the minimum alterations is $350....they order TOO BIG on purpose to make money on the alterations...I will be pissed if the dress looks funny because they have to take it in..I even contemplated cancelling the order, eating the $500 deposit and ordering from houseofbrides, only to find out that if you cancel your order, they still charge the remaining balance of the dress to your credit card....what a RIP OFF...please save yourselves the trouble and go somewhere else...they aren't worth it....I feel horrible that I got taken advantage of. Since I wrote this I have picked up my dress. I had to wait 45minutes to be taken care of, only to find them searching for my dress.. AND IT WAS RIPPED....someone wore it, it was dirty, and the jacket that comes with it was sliced, torn, damaged.... Also I ordered 2 yards of satin fabric, to make a sash, and it wasn't two yards at all, and there were two huge chunks taken out of the fabric, like someone took fabric for a swatch. The owner REED, wasn't helpful and did nothing to rectify the situation. He won't replace the fabric, which they said was going to be $40, and was over $100, or the jacket to the gown. He was RIDICULOUS and NOT GOOD AT CUSTOMER SERVICE OR SATISFACTION. I froze my credit card payment and will not be paying them for the damaged merchandise. They have officially ruined my wedding!!!

this place is horrible. it is so awful that i am writing negative reviews about it everywhere i can find to online, and i have never done that before. customer service clearly is not valued AT ALL here. the people are uniformly incompetent and disinterested. they could not be more unhelpful. they overcharged my credit card by $400, they do not accept returns (i tried to return my overpriced guest book), they put my dress order in under the wrong name, they never called me to tell me the dresses were in, when i went in to pick up a dress that should have been there i waited for 30+ minutes before they told me that it must have shipped, they could not find a receipt for my dresses (which is convenient, since they overcharged me so much) and i waited while they dug through their generic receipts in a cardboard box for a receipt they never found. this place is dirty and run down, the employees are awful, and you are pretty much gauranteed to walk out of this place with new gray hairs.
