Very kind and helpful staff in assisting me find a wedding dress, and years ago I found a suitable prom dress from them as well. I found a lot of gorgeous ones- a very wide selection with a great size range. The only reason I put four stars instead of five was because the prices were a little higher than what I was expecting from a consignment store, but I can understand the reasoning behind it.
I had a great experience when I bought my wedding dress here so I felt comfortable consigning my items after my wedding. The first time I brought items in everything went well. The second time I dropped items off I noticed that their policies had changed and had I not gone in I would have had no clue about them. They used to let you consign for 90 days and If something didn’t sell you could have them reset the 90 days. That has now changed which I guess is fine some communication would have been good. I came in to gather my second batch of items that didn’t sell and had asked if she could give me the pricing on everything. Come to find out one of my items that I paid $100 had “broken” at some point. I was never notified and I said it would have been ideal to get a call so I could come get it in case I could fix it. The employee stated “we are too busy to be calling people when things break.” A little infuriating when I saw one other customer in the store when I came in. I also asked about an additional policy change where they are no longer accepting decor on 01/01/19 and again the employee was short with me and just said “I don’t make the rules” and my response was I certainly understand that I was just inquiring if that policy would be forever or a short period.My suggestion would be that you make some additional policy changes that does require notification if something is broken so we have a chance to grab it and also train the employees on the changing policies so they have a more professional response to an inquiry.Very disappointed as I used to recommend here all the time. That will change based on the policy changes and the poor customer service.
I bought my wedding dress at Bride To Be Consignment and I am so happy with the customer service I received. The staff were helpful, kind, and professional.I used their layaway option, meaning I paid for half of my dress upfront and paid for the rest at a later date. They stored my dress until I paid in full, then I got to bring it home!They also have a wide variety of decor items to look through. I would definitely recommend checking them out!
The last two years I LOVED this store!! Bought my wedding dress and a handful of decor for the reception here and had a great experience every time. I often recommend it to others who were planning their special day. Very different experience now. I called to double check whether I needed an appointment to bring in my decor to sell and was told no. Brought in four big boxes of items I had mostly purchased there and was told they couldn’t take ANY of it. She said they only accept black, white and clear decor or new items. So no linens, colored vases, ‘bottle vases’ even though they are clear, cake stands, center piece items... it’s ridiculous. And, it’s very frustrating the girl I talked to an hour before I drove there didn’t bother to mention this ‘policy change’ on the phone. I’m not so much upset they won’t take my stuff, I’m disappointed they are limiting the variety so much and that’s what made this place so great for getting ideas and piecing my wedding together. I’d give it 1 star based on my recent experience but overall all I can settle on 2.
Good selection of similarly colored things if you need decor. The prices seem a bit high though for what they are, in some situations I figure you could get the decor new for the price being offered. Additionally, they would not take my dress, which was fairly new, said it was not a style they took. But I had tried on a dress in their collection recently that had a large hole in it (still being offered at 800$) so I’m not sure about their consignment rules, seems mixed on what they will, and will not take. Because of this the dresses offered all seem to be of a similar style I found, at least in size 18+. Seems like their selection caters to the smaller sized bride as the selection for larger sizes is poor at the moment (I realize inventory is always shifting). Id probably thrift before coming back for decor items due to cost.
I love this place. Their selection of dresses is decent, but its really the decorations and supplies that are great. You can make a decent amount of money consigning items, especially if youre willing to put in the time to re-consign more than once. Some of the wedding decor items are actually useful housewares or can be used as decoration for any event. Because of the consignment policy in which items are half-price after 60 days, many items are cheaper than you find at even thrift stores.
This was such a great experience! Everyone was so helpful and made me feel very comfortable. I liked the that there was such a variety and didnt see two of the same wedding dresses. Made it feel like I was shopping at multiple stores at one time. You could seriously find just about everything you would want here for your wedding. They also have several recommendations for wedding services, which I appreciated! I will be back to make more purchases ASAP! Thank you ladies!
My daughter found her wedding dress with the first one she tried on.Loved shopping here. I highly recommend it.All the ladies were so helpful, Unlike Davids Bridal. I would never give that place a dime of my money.There are so many to choose from at Brides to be consignment, and the prices are fantastic.
I bought my dress here. They have a good selection (I am a formal wear size 18-20 so its not the easiest to find dresses in my size) and the staff treated me incredibly well. Even though its a consignment store the staff treat you like youre in a bridal boutique! Very attentive and helpful, they made me feel very special. I love the dress I found there.
I was hesitant as I was new to the wedding dress scene. My friend googled this place and it was AMAZING. Now my friends, you have to be of the right mindset to shop here, do you have a plan of what you want, material, price or color? If you answered no then maybe Google dress styles before hand. As a thrifty person like me you will love it here. It is well organized however like anyone else you need to have game plan. I love the range of prices and the staff is knowledge. If you are expecting Say Yes to the Dress you will have to pull your own dresses if it is busy so bring a group. However, the quality of service is great. This was my second place in The Twin Citites to try on and the range of sizes was great.
I wasnt terribly impressed with the offering at this place. I could change my tune potentially. They had a ton of used wedding dresses but the prices werent that much lower than Davids bridal for all the extra work even on the dress part. The general knick-knack offerings for table placement flowers etc price wise were not reduced enough over Amazon and in some cases were even more expensive than Amazon so dont bother coming here for that just get it online.
Looking for a dress and they do have a good selection but the wedding dresses were expensive considering they are previously worn. When I stopped at Davids Bridal, they had quite a few in the $200-300 range if you are being budget conscious, but this place didnt. Its worth checking though since their inventory probably changes often.
This bridal shop is great!! They have so many treasures of lightly used decorations to dresses. I found my dress here for around $400 which would normally cost $1,000 and it was fantastic. The ladies helped in fitting me and with finding the right hoop skirt. I love this place they are great.
In response to We are always fair and understanding of our Team. Sometimes, we have people that are not a good fit but always wish them the best of luck in a different opportunity., I worked there for almost 4 years and quit when the ethics went out the window. You might use the words not a good fit for employees, but know that what really happened was that B2B turned into a bad fit for the numerous (I can name 7) dedicated employees that quit once the new management took over. (some had been there longer than I had!). Perhaps you should use a mirror to reflect on your own fit for being in a customer service based industry.p.s. No need to respond Dan, you just called me a bad fit and you didnt even know me.
Two stars for having a wide variety, but their prices are insanely stupid. Its a resale store but they price everything as if it is new-- maybe because they know people will buy it anyway. I guess that makes them smart though? A slice of wood as a center piece was $12. I got 30 of them for $20 from a thrift sale. But like I said, people will buy it anyway.
For the most part, they have reasonable pricing, but some items on the shelves are trash. Handmade stuff can be cute if done right but some of the quality of the items are glued-gunned, paint-smeared hot garbage. Theyre some diamonds in the rough if showcased correctly would sell better. Place is too cluttered, staff isnt always the nicest/ responsive.Good place to grab last minute things you may necessarily dont care about for you wedding.
I came in during the 50% off sale looking for my dress. The staff was very nice. Unfortunately I did not get the name of the lady who helped me choose my dress that I will be wearing. She did a fantastic job and went the extra mile with getting shoes for me to try on, veils, bouquets, the whole shabang. I love the atmosphere of the store and I love the staff! I will most definitely be sending everyone I know to this store!! Thank you so much!!!!!
Great staff and an interesting selection. They were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Not pushy or intrusive at all. I really had a pleasant experience buying a dress here. TONS of decorations here to pick from too.
Disregard any/all negative reviews. Yes, some of the dresses are not in mint condition. But that is easily fixed by a handy friend or a tailor, and lets face it-youre probably going to have to get the dress tailored anyway. Yes its a small store and theres a lot of stuff packed into it. So what? The atmosphere/setting is very comparable to a thrift store, which is fine.... because this stuff is almost all used. Dont go here expecting a bridal boutique atmosphere. Yes, some of the stuff might be priced a bit high, but for me this place was fantastic for giving me ideas of what to do, and some of the supplies to do it. I personally wouldnt want to buy a pre-made centerpiece, but for those who dont have a crafty maid of honor like I do its great that the option is there. The store was busy when I went but I had a STELLAR experience with the staff, they all greeted me politely and helped me pick out some fabulous gowns.I wasnt expecting this, but I definitely got the Say Yes to the Dress experience. It was amazing. I will recommend this store to anyone I know, forever. Even if youre not getting married, its a great place to go!!!
I went in to shop for a wedding dress and was impressed by the selection of dresses in my size. It was not busy on a Sunday afternoon and there were a few friendly employees available to help with getting dresses in and out of the dressing room and to help zip/lace dresses up. Some of the wedding decor seems to be obviously DIY, but there is also a lot that is brand new/like new.
When the staff knows you by name, does that mean youve been there a few times? I have found so many treasures at this store - including my wedding gown! The day I found it, I tried it on, left for another appointment, and had to come back to visit it again. Even though I was there until close, the girls were so helpful and patient that I didnt even know I had kept them! I will say to watch their coupons as they are usually only good on full price merchandise, but I love the punch card! I will say though, I am a hunter - always one to dig through the racks for a good deal. If this is not you, send the friend who is as she will find an amazing deal for you!
This place will save you money and most of the stuff looks like its in decent condition. I was only looking for decorations, but they have a variety of dresses too. I only took off one star because it can be messy. In some parts of the store, things are just lying on the floor. Its definitely worth checking out though.
The ladies here were AMAZING. Found the perfect wedding dress at an insanely good price. Thank you so much ladies!
The staff were absolutely wonderful! I walked in not knowing what style of wedding dress I wanted. The positive sales lady showed me several different styles and helped me into the ones I was interested in. No pressure to buy and kept me in my 150 dollar price point. Worth the hour drive :)
I bought my dress and a lot of decor here and couldnt be happier! Everyone was friendly and I got amazing deals!! Ive definitely been telling everyone I know to start there. Weddings definitely dont have to cost an arm and a leg!
I just had the best experience at Bride to Be. After less than stellar experiences at Davids and the Wedding Shoppe. I found my wedding dress with the help on an awesome employee who knew the exact dress type I needed. She was amazing! Plus I got such a good deal on an amazing dress!
A smart way to plan your wedding or any other event! They have a wide selection for every style, every color, every budget. Its a fun and exciting place to shop for event supplies, dresses and mostly anything youd need for a wedding. They have happy and helpful people working to help you.
I had a surprisingly good time here for my first wedding dress shopping experience. Despite the sale going on, it was not incredibly busy, and the saleswomen on the floor were really quick to set up a changing room, but were not at all pushy about me buying anything. I liked being able to flip through the racks myself without any pressure.It was really hard to find anything which wasnt sleeveless, but thats no fault of the store itself.4 stars only because the Woodbury location had better selection, I felt, and a particularly helpful saleswoman.
This place is amazing. I will be shopping here for years after my wedding for all kinds of things. Every time you go in its full of completely different stuff. Tons of gorgeous dresses in perfect condition. I found a dress and very stupidly did not pick it up. It was gone the next day, but they were able to tell me the model number, so I was able to order it elsewhere because I liked it so much! I purchased everything from jewelry, to place cards, stationary, corset, vases, decorations, etc. etc. I bought two bridesmaids dresses to wear for Christmas parties last winter. They have anything and everything. Go, go, go. Even if youre not getting married.
Wonderful place. Many more options than the bridal shop I visited. I was able to try over almost 40 dresses in less than two hours.The staff was extremely helpful. Very friendly and good-natured.They got dresses out of bags and then out of my way faster than I could pick out new ones. They are also super helpful getting in and out of dresses when the zipper is stuck or all the buttons are too complicated.
Theres so many dresses in every size, in every style, and low cost. These same beautiful dresses were thousands of dollars a few weeks or months ago. Theres also decorations of almost any color. A $36,000 wedding cost isnt necessary to have a great wedding with this place.
I went to Bride To Be Consignment with my friend who was trying on wedding dresses and I had a great experience. We had previously went Davids Bridal and had a horrible experience; they made us wait a half hour past our appointment before we were helped, no one in the group had anywhere to sit, the girl helping my friend was about 16 and had no idea what she was doing and tried to pressure my friend into buying a dress for 100% down by saying it is only on sale today when in fact it wasnt. Bride To Be Consignment helped us right when we walked in the door, we all had a chair to sit in and plenty of room, the employees were knowledgeable and helpful and they offer 50% down and lay away to purchase your dress and there was a HUGE selection which was all organized by size. I would definitely recommend going to Bride To Be Consignment.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I was looking for a wedding dress and they didnt have a lot of options in plus sizes. I also thought that the prices were comparable to new dresses, and I expected them to be somewhat lower. Overall it was a good experience and Id go back again to see what new stuff they got in.
When we walked it we thought that we would be able to find a wedding dress for the bride and at least one of the bridesmaid dresses. Unfortunately no one greeted us or helped us find where we needed to look for her size. The racks were so packed it was impossible to look at dresses. When the bride tried on dresses many of them were ripped. It says the dresses are gently used and reusable, but some of the tears are large and u reparable. We left disappointed to go to Davids bridal and we all found dresses there. We even say 2 other brides from this place there. If quality was a concern it would be better. There are a lot awesome stuff for decorating, but it was too cramped. We almost broke a few things because they were on the ground and the aisles were very narrow.
I stopped in while in the early stages of planning for my wedding (at the time, I was 9 months out from the date) to get some ideas and check out pricing. There is a lot of variety in colors and products available, many unique items since everything is from previous weddings. The initial prices on most items is a little high for being used in my opinion, but if youre able to wait, there is a second price on everything that is much lower after a certain date. Because its all resale/consignment, limited quantities may be available, but they can also notify you if certain items youre looking for come in. They have a large variety of wedding-related products (dresses, accessories, centerpiece/aisle deco, candles, etc.)
Helpful staff. A bit overstuffed inside with stuff but there is s ton of wedding related paraphernalia. We found both wedding and mothers dress for our daughters wedding here.
Absolutely Incredible! People are the sweetest and always willing to help! So many unique beautiful dresses 10/10!💛😁
While I didn’t have a negative experience shopping for my wedding dress here, there really wasn’t a positive experience either. The best part (aside from finding my beautiful dress) was the sales associate that helped carry dresses to the fitting room, unbagged them, clipped the dresses if I liked them, and gave me plenty of space to make my decision with my mom. The store felt rather dirty, there were some dresses falling off their hangers and it didn’t feel like it had been vacuumed in a while. The selection wasn’t huge, but they did have a variety of styles in the size I was after (14-16). For the most part, the wedding decorations available feel very low quality and DIY but are priced rather high. I got my dress there but was not impressed with any of the other wedding items they were selling. Overall it was a fine experience and I found my dress, but I was not impressed.
The Staff here is very friendly and knowledgeable about helping you find what you need. I went in to consign some items from my wedding and ended up buying some decorations for my house and a few gifts for my mom. I would highly recommend this place to everyone!
My little sister had had such horrible experiences at other stores to the point she dreaded looking for a dress. Because her wedding was more than a year out they totally blew her off saying you dont need to be worrying about a dress yet. My sister left those stores feeling so discouraged. We started looking through dresses here, not even thinking about her trying any on, when an employee walked up and asked if she could start a fitting room for her. From that moment on I saw a complete transformation in my sister. She was so excited!! I can not thank this store and employees enough for making her feel like a VIP from the moment she walked in the door!!! She found the dress of her dreams and within her price range. We will be recommending this place to every woman planning a wedding. Thank you so much!!!
One star because I found my wedding dress there, minus 4 because the staff is extremely rude. I had taken off work with a couple of friends to get to the store at 4:30 (it was advertised open until 6). Wed pulled dresses and I was just starting to try them on when they informed us they were closing in 15 minutes. It was about 5. We pointed out that they were supposed to be open until 6 that was what was advertised. She said, Well, were short staffed. We were the only people in the store and there were at least 3 sales people running around. They werent helping us, but also, we didnt really need them to. We said that they should give more notice before closing early, since wed made plans around their stated hours. The sales lady was very annoyed at us for not scurrying out and rudely told us Well, Im telling you now. So I didnt get much time to wear my dress or bask in the joy of making a pretty big purchase. A couple of people got there after they rushed us out (still well before 6); they just shrugged at them and refused to open the door. Im so glad I never have to go back!
Ive been to this location twice and both experiences were unacceptable. Absolutely no one offered me help and every employee passed me up. The only time someone acknowledged me was when I was purchasing some items. Also, the prices are WAY too high! Youre better off getting your items brand new or from an online secondhand retailer. This place is a rip off.
I consigned my prom dress here which was a good experience. But just the other day I bought my wedding dress from this location! They have a great selection for great prices!
Stopped in on a Saturday morning to shop for my sisters wedding dress. Bekah was an amazing salesperson...knew just when to step in and when to pull back. No pressure, helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
Jam packed with good finds.Sometimes a little too jam packed and they could do with a little less junk...Like 900 painted wine bottles.Some of the prices are a bit highBut the customer service is always awesome!
Found my wedding dress here for $250! And it was brand new. Great selection. They have tons of other stuff you might need for your wedding. So glad I found this store. I tried on dresses at like 5 other bridal shops and could not find the dress I wanted, until I came here!
Good for bridesmaids dresses. The decor and wedding dresses seem over priced. Most of the wedding dresses were over $700 (even used ones). Interesting to check out but was disappointed.
My friend found her dress here. People are very nice, no pressure to buy though. You look through the racks yourself, which is nice
I didnt like anything about this place. The people were really rude to us. My friend who is getting married was looking for a dress, when asked for help they were really short with us and would walk away. I have never felt so judged in my life. To top it all off most of the dresses were ripped and torn really bad on some and they are still charging 1000 bucks for a ripped dress. I bought a veil there myself and the lady said I couldnt return it if it didnt Match she was rude as well. I will never go back to this place for anything. I do not recommend this store to anyone for anything
I went to Bride To Be Consignment after searching at multiple department stores and consignment stores to find my perfect prom dress and I finally did! They have had the biggest selection of dresses out of every place Ive been to. I do think that some of the dresses are overpriced for what they are (having jewels falling off, missing hooks, or small tears) but that could be from people trying them on or because the original dress was so expensive. Those dresses could easily be fixed though and they didnt have any dresses that were damaged beyond repair. They have so many name brand dresses here. The workers were so friendly and nice! They let you try on as many dresses as you wanted and they would even hold your fitting room while you went to grab even more! The fitting rooms did not have mirrors in them BUT have had huge mirrors and pedestals outside the fitting room so you could really see all of the dress. The dresses were organized by size and even color. It was easy to find the styles I like. After trying on about 15 dresses I finally found my perfect prom dress. The price was $251 but they had a deal of 15% off all dresses so I got it for $213. I looked up the brand Ava Presley (the brand of my dress) and originally their dresses are usually around $500 so I got it for about half the price. I was very pleased with my experience to Bride To Be and I would recommend this store to anyone looking for a variety of dresses. They have so many different styles of prom and wedding dresses and its overall just a lovely place.
Pretty decent selection. Staff is extremely rude. They kicked us out after we had been trying dresses on for ~30 minutes while other parties had been here for over an hour.
I worked with Abby at the Woodbury/Lake Elmo location and she was awesome. We were a couple minutes early but she was ready for us. She introduced herself right away and seemed happy to help us get to the correct sizes and we started picking some off the rack ourselves. Through seeing these she asked what I liked, what I didnt like and what I had first wanted walking in. From there she picked three more dresses while I tried the first three on. In the end I did go with one of her picks as it was gorgeous and was almost a perfect fit. She even grabbed a tiara and my mom grabbed a veil to have a princess moment and I bought those too. I will say every dress I tried either had some smaller holes, stains, busted buttons or zipper issues; but most of them would have been able to be mended or dry cleaned. There was one that most of the holes would have been very difficult to mend and I dont know that the stains would have come out, otherwise that probably would have been my pick. But all in all I was very happy with my dress, with Abby, with the price (it was even half off) and they had a lot more to choose from than I thought they would. I would reccomend checking them out.
Bride to Be Consignment screwed me over! They sold me goods at 50% higher than retail and refused to apologize, give me a refund, or even store credit. They are not at all about serving their customers or providing a great deal. They are about bottom line and black and white policies that support their screwing you. They have ZERO morals. They will never, ever, ever get my business again and, hopefully, they wont get yours either.
Good place to go for bridesmaids dresses! Didnt look into the wedding dresses but the bridesmaids dresses were plentiful!
Ugh... not worth the drive. Went shopping today for my mother of the bride dress. My daughter and I went to JcPennys, Macy’s, David’s and lastly bride to be consignment. Upon walking in it was pretty overwhelming seeing all the outdated and definitely used items. We looked at 6 dresses that I might be interested in and there was definitely sticker price shock. Bride to be was asking $149-$440 for those dresses and and hour earlier I paid less than $110 for my perfect dress at David’s Bridal... The shop was cluttered and prices were high. Not one of the 4-5 employees offered any assistance let alone say hello to us as they were pretty busy chatting it up at the register while items were on the floor in disarray throughout the entire shop. Wouldn’t recommend.
Nice place to visit. They have a lot of variety for ideas to plan for a wedding. They appear to have a big selection of wedding dresses and others.
Left with so many great items for my wedding!!! Some things are a little pricy, but some are ridiculously inexpensive! The staff is very nice and encouraged us to come back to sell items after our wedding!! Awesome find!
Every bride must go they have everything! I probably went 6 times before wedding. They saved me a ton of money. There is wedding dresses, bridesmaids dresses, shoes, decor, accessories, and all the little things u dont think to have at your wedding💜
Did not know what to expect but was seriously pleasantly surprised. I bought the first dress I tried on for 30% of what I had expected to spend. Thankful I stumbled across this place!
This shop is a great resource for wedding planning. My favorite part is their FB, which easily highlights what they have and is also good for inspiration. There’s SO much in the actual store to look at, you really have to be dedicated to searching for what you want. But that’s typical thrifting & consignment. I was mostly just disappointed that they had little variety. Does everyone in MN use mini canoes and chalkboard signs for decorations? Major props to their staff for displaying everything in groups by type, it definitely helps!
Girls were very helpful but the dresses are priced way to high for used dresses. Some have pit stains and makeup stains and they want just barely under new retail pricing.
As a consignee, I am extremely dissapointed. After the first month I called to check on the dresses I consigned and no one picked up the phone, not even a voicmail. I called on another persons phone so a different number would show on their end and they, only then, did pick up and scarcely talked to me. I had to drive over to the store to check on my dress sales twice in the 3month consignment period before I realized I was pretty much helping out the bridal mafia. I observed a few consignees dropping off stuff for the first time and I really hope you catch the vibe before falling into their trap.Customer Services is fair, but lack the basics: help you client/patron/customer FIRST then check in with the next person. By helping each individual get from point A to point B your customers will leave with better experience.My main point here:***NEVER CONSIGN WITH THIS BUISNESS!!!***
They have a lot of great items for great prices! The store is better if you are just looking for decorations and not as much for bridesmaid or wedding dresses. Keep in mind the items there are used items.
Kind of a messy/junky place... but at the same time they have some really nice stuff. My sister found her wedding dress here. Finding stuff here is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Its like a bridal thrift store, no frills, shop for yourself, staff assists at fitting rooms, sizes are clearly labeled and sorted☆▪☆▪☆▪☆▪☆
Women, the prices here are no more expensive than buying dresses full price. Please, skip this overpriced place and go to a boutique dress shop and treat yourself to a nice time of being pampered. I was aghast at the prices here - considering everything had already been worn or used.
Hoped to find some good decorative pieces for my wedding. Felt like most things here were cheap-looking or damaged in some way. I realize its a consignment shop, but I was underwhelmed.
They didnt have it marked on their website in June when they had their big sale, nor that they werent taking consignments during it. Drove a big fat way for nothing.
The young ladies that helped me couldn’t have been more helpful or friendly. They made my transaction very smooth. Thanks
Was so excited to go but when I walked in no one greeted me or my maid of honor. Everything is thrown together in unorganized tubs of miss matched decorations. The dress experience. ...ugghh....The sales person was less then helpful and very awkward and unfriendly. Seemed to get the vibe I was bothering them :( Dont waste your time brides
Clean store with a lot of dresses. I was looking for a bridesmaid dress. Decent selection in my size (2).
Wasnt impressed by this consignment shop.. I went to look for bridesmaids dresses.. and the staff that had been there that day just wasnt enjoying life..They hadnt been friendly and they ignored any questions we had... my girls didnt enjoy this experiance and neither did I..We did end up trying some dresses on.. and the over all look of the shop reminded me of the Deb store during prom season... for those who remember that store.. knows that store got trashed when prom season came around..
Customer service is absolute trash. A specific sales women was extremely rude, speaking on the topic of a costumer being too big for a dress before trying it on. Don’t go here.
Beautiful wedding dresses and other formal gowns at a fraction of the price as well as wedding decor and accessories. One stop shopping!
WAY overpriced!! They would move a lot more inventory if their prices were in line. Their pricing structure is more of a high-end, brand new shop, which this is not. If you’re hoping for a good deal, go elsewhere - like Opitz!! That place is the BEST!!!As a previous (unsuccessful) customer, I decided to take in some of my bridesmaids/cocktail dresses as well as sparkly stiletto (super dressy and worn once) heels for consignment. I had 13 items total and they kept 2. Definitely not worth the drive.I have no idea what this shop’s goal is....but I’m now a highly disappointed customer as well as an attempted consigner.
Good prices and wide selection. If I knew someone looking for a dress or wedding supplies, I would definitely recommend it.
They were ok. Price were high! Dress they want only back 5 years. They dont want vintage!
Very unpleasant experience. Did not even really look through my items. I didnt even care they only took one thing; thats the nature of consignment. It was the lack of eye contact, they didnt thank me for coming in and seemed bothered to have to deal with me. There was some sort of drama from a phone call they were more considered about. Ive shopped here for years, I will not be back.
THIS STORE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR EMPLOYEES! everyone has walked out of both stores because of new management DAN CANFIELD. (who knows absolutely NOTHING about the store) and his side kick Marissa! They have NOT PAID consignors but are advertising on KDWB and on FACEBOOK for thousands of dollars. they are only paying BIG consignors and not the small ones. GO IN AD DEMAND YOUR MONEY AT THE STORE!!!! They are having 50% sales and not letting consignors know. TODAY ALL OF WOODBURYS staff walked out. PLEASE DO NOT SHOP OR CONSIGN HERE!!! They are hiring anyone as fast as they can because everyone is quitting both store are now left with ONE employee.
This shop is overflowing with stuff. In-fact it is soo packed it is hard to walk around. You really have to squeeze threw the isles to move around. And you have to take off your shoes when you enter but there is no bench sit on. The customer service is really not good. No one greets you or asks if you need help. They only talk to you if you ask for help. And when you ask for help they seem annoyed. But they have a lot of great stuff for a good price.
I went looking for a plus size wedding dress, after lots of disappointment other places. Bride To Be had a large selection, with prices ranging from under $200 up to $1000. The staff did not offer to help, but I had my sister with me, and I actually preferred just her and I pulling and trying on the dresses. They are still moving into their new space, and it is huge! I was amazed at all of the items available! I would absolutely recommend this shop. Even for some cute, affordable home decor!
Great place for wedding decorations. The have such a wide variety and great prices.
Amazing items, and inspiration for home decor and events!!!! Love both stores, and the prices are amazing. Very helpful staff too!
Ella helped me find something not too formal, not too juvenile and stayed close to help while I tried things on. I was surprised how many different dresses and other things they had there!
Very helpful staff great place to go to find your dress for your big day.
Extremely disappointed in how bride to be has changed since coming under new management. Consignors, customers, and employees are treated unfairly by the new owners.
Do not sell your items to them!! They do not price your items fairly and will sell things before you even agree on whether or not you want to sell for that price. They also are not careful with their merchandise and end up damaging a lot of the items.The place itself is a complete mess. Their staff is rude and do not even greet you when you walk in. The owner is also very lazy and rude to customers. When I asked her if she could have her staff explain the consignment contract better to customers she told me that she doesnt have time to train in her staff on issues like this. Obviously customer service doesnt me anything to her.
Very kind and helpful staff. Fabulous finds every week.
Was very busy and crowded but good service and dress selection
Alex was a huge help and went above and beyond to make my shopping experience great!
They have great sales to help customers save even more money! The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable about their inventory.
Very different experience when buying a dress than trying to consign one. I bought a $400 wedding gown from the Lake Elmo shop a few months ago. Was told at that time I could reconsig if I changed my mind. I brought the same dress in to the Bloomington store and was told they wont buy it back because of make-up stainds. IT NEVER LEFT MY CLOSET and I dont even wear makeup. They were happy to sell me a stained dress but wont buy it back. I wont buy anything else from them, even though I had planned to buy a boatload of things for our reception.
DO NOT SUPPORT THIS COMPANY. They are not paying their consignors and their employees are treated horribly! Horrible conditions and overpriced dresses for their quality
I was super disappointed by my trip to Bride to Be.-The majority of the dresses you try on will be damaged, frayed, have holes, stains, or have something wrong with them.-Dresses are not priced at a reasonable rate for consignment. (You could buy a brand new one for the price of some of these dresses, I’m talking 50% off and still about $600 minimum.)-If you’re over a 12/14 don’t expect much of a selection.-The staff does not assist you in any way. & the two interactions I had with the staff were pretty poor, and rude.-The fitting rooms are WAY to small to try on dresses, especially if you like the princess poofy style.I should disclose that I went during their 50% off sale, so maybe that was part of why everyone was ignoring us, but I am super disappointed, I was really excited to go to this shop and it was a complete let down and waste of a long drive.
Awesome place. Always find something for our wedding
I found my dress at a great low price! Customer service was great!
Very friendly staff. A great selection of dresses. Definitely recommend.
Best store ever! It is amazing they have everything you can think of for sale!
Fantastic store! The prices and selection are great!
Great place for any party supplies like center piece, decorations etc...
