I should start by mentioning that I NEVER leave reviews, but my experience at Circle Park was so good I just had to. I'm a little biased because I did find my dress there, but this review is mostly for Madeleine, who was-- out of the four bridal shops I visited last week-- the BEST assistant by far. You should give her a raise!! :) Madeleine was very respectful of my budget, allowed my guests and I to peruse the store, was helpful without sounding like she was reading from a script (I noticed this at a lot of other stores and it kind of made me feel awkward, like I was just another body to get through, which I get, it's a sales position, but it still makes you feel kind of bleh), and above all, she LISTENED TO ME! Maybe we're on the same wave-length or something but it's more likely that she is just very, very good at her job. Every dress she brought me I actually really liked because it was exactly what I was describing (even though I wasn't super clear on what I wanted), and she didn't bring me a million dresses to try on just for **** and giggles. After a week of trying on dress after dress I was super exhausted and ready to give up, but Madeleine made this experience enjoyable for once. She actually didn't pull the dress I ended up with because she was being respectful of my budget-- I saw it on my way out in the corner of my eye and knew it was the one, despite it's slightly higher cost-- and I really, really appreciate her for doing that. That's how it should be, and I should have been more clear that I was willing to go slightly over for THE dress. I would definitely recommend Circle Park for the selection and variety but more so because of my experience with Madeleine. I hope you give her all the financial security and free dresses her heart desires!!
