I went in to Kim Kriner's just to take a look at what they had available. I went early in the day on a Tuesday - about 10:30am and had the shop to myself. Katie, the sales lady on duty, personally showed me around the store, showing me where to find the sale gowns, clearance gowns, regularly priced gowns, etc. She pointed out a small area of discontinued Maggie Sottero gowns that were not only on sale, but were marked down an additional $200 off if priced over $500 or 20% off if priced under $500. With Katie's help, I found quite a few dresses to try on. I let her know the elements of the dress I was looking for: apron front, lace-up back, halter or sweetheart neckline and she searched the regularly priced dresses while I looked through the sale dresses. She took all of the dresses to the dressing room for me. The first dress I tried on was one of the Maggie gowns. It was the first and last gown I tried on at this store! Katie took the time to fully lace up the back of the dress and arrange the gown so I could see the full effect. It was perfect! After finding my perfect dress at a *STEAL*, Katie offered to bring me various veils for me to try on to go with the dress. Although I haven't chosen my veil yet, I purchased the gown on the spot! With my purchase, they offered a 10% discount on any of their accessories - including shoes and veils. They also offered 10-15% discount for my bridesmaids if they purchase their gowns from them also. And they will give me $25 off the cleaning of my gown after my wedding. I couldn't be happier with my find! Thanks to Kim Kriner's, I have my dream dress at a fraction of the retail cost! Alterations can be done right at the shop, so I won't have to drive around town to get them done. Katie was very nice and very accomidating. She let me browse without being pushy, but remained close enough to assist me at all times. This was a wonderful experiece and I will be telling all of my friends to check this place out too!
Pros: LOTS of Sale and Clearance gowns, friendly service
Cons: Parking is somewhat limited
