It saddens me to have to write this review. I wait...

It saddens me to have to write this review. I waited 5 days to make sure that I wasn t writing out of my feelings but I still feel so disappointed with my appointment at Anya Bridal. I had a premiere appointment on Saturday May 4, 2019. I was so nervous as any bride would be. Tina was my Master Stylist consultant and although she approached us very kindly, I could tell that we just weren t going to vibe. I attempted to explain that I was a very indecisive bride, that knew exactly what I didn t want, but wouldn t know what I loved until I had it on. I feel that all the things I didn t want in a dress is exactly what Tina kept bringing me, so maybe she misunderstood or honestly I believe she just wasn t fully paying attention.At one point, Tina seemed to be at a loss for what I may be looking for and had me go look through some dresses with her but at that point I was already frustrated and ready for the appointment to end. I felt that because I was plus size, that maybe what I was looking for they just didn t have in my size, but we kept going. The manager was pulled in on my appointment towards the end and that made me feel awful, it made me feel like I was being difficult and I promise I wasn t. I was just at a loss on how you can have 1000 dresses in stock, 250 being plus size and the only thing that I was trying on was strapless sweetheart necklines with tulle( everything I didn t want). I left this store in tears because I really wanted to find my dress and I felt like I wasted 50.00 on a premiere appointment to only feel like I was being more of a burden than a beautiful bride.

Tina did share with me that they were ordering more dresses for their fall collection and she gave me her cell phone number to contact her directly, which was a very sweet thing to do but honestly I probably won t be back until I have dropped some major weight. I m okay if they don t have what I m looking for in a dress but don t make a person feel like you ve just given up on them and their search for the perfect gown.

Honestly there is more small details to my appointment as well but as I m typing this, I m becoming more and more saddened again by the whole experience. I take reviews into consideration when making a decision to attend somewhere but I also believe in experiencing things for yourself. I wish other brides, especially plus size a way better experience than I had at Anya Bridal. I will update this review if I decide to go back in the fall.

Sincerely,
The Search Continues
