I went to Sandra's back in June, and figured i would give it a shot. A friend of mine got her dress from there and said it was great. This was my first experience trying on dresses, and thought it was going to be very exciting. In the end it was not for me. The girl that i was assigned to was young and inexperienced. I went in there telling her exactly what i wanted. I said i want something simple, not puffy, no lace and no beading. She brought out a dress that had beading all on the top and as puffy as Cinderella's dress. I looked at her and said i asked for something simple with no beading and not puffy. She then told me i should just try it on. Why would i want to try it on when its not what i am looking for. She then brought out another dress, i swear this girl did not listen to a word i said, it was purple with cream lace and had big puffy sleeves, and looked like something from the wedding singer. I told her she was going to give me nightmares. Not once did she ever bring me out a dress that i asked for. Everything she brought out was puffy and covered with beading. At one point i said lets not do anymore satin and try organza. Well the next dress she brought out was satin. This continued for about 6-8 more dresses, until i started to cry, then another woman stepped in from the next room and said maybe you should show her this dress.... this girl was just clueless. It was a horrible experience, what i needed was to pick out dresses from a catalog and have her go and get them. They do not have catalogs there and even though i brought in pictures this girl did not have a clue. This store was not for me, maybe it would have been a better experience if the girl had listened. I got so upset that i left and never went back there. A bit of advice, if you do go there and they are not listening, ask for someone else, or when booking ask for someone with experience.
Pros: wide selection of bridesmaid dresses
Cons: not experienced
