Exclusively You

Had a lovely appointment with Alexis today. She was able to quickly pull beautiful dresses that were right in line with the styles I had in mind. There was also ample space in the shop so I didn’t feel like I was competing for space with other parties and it was comfortable for my mother and sister to wait while I was in between dresses. When it came time to make a decision she wasn’t pushy at all and proactively suggested that I sleep on it and wrote down the dress information so it was easy for me to come back to when I was ready to make a decision. Very helpful, so friendly, highly recommend!

I went to Exclusively You this past weekend to look for a wedding dress. I had purchased my prom gown from Exclusively You a number of years ago, and when I saw that they carried one of the wedding dress designers that I liked, I knew I had to go there. This was the first place I went to try on gowns, and they were incredibly helpful and nice about the entire process. They pulled all of the dresses from the designer I liked that they had, and because it was my first time dress shopping, they also pulled a bunch more so that I could make sure I liked the trumpet fit vs. a sheath or ball gown. It was very helpful to be able to try on many different dresses and not feel rushed through the process. They all wanted to help and find the perfect dress for me. Although I ended up buying my dress at a different store, I would highly recommend Exclusively You!

This is my first time dealing with Exclusively You and it surely will be my last. I was a bridesmaid in my 6^th wedding so I’m no stranger to the process. Upon arriving for initial measuring and dress choice, they wanted me to strip. I told them I wasn’t comfortable with this. They proceeded to get real snotty with me telling me they can’t measure with clothes on. I said 5 other dress shops never had that problem so they measured on top of the clothes. We opted for custom measured dresses, basically the dress should fit perfectly upon receipt and no alterations necessary. I paid an additional $ 50 for this. 2 different people did the measurements to ensure it was done correctly. When the dress arrived, it was insanely too big. I could’ve placed a pillow in the bust and still have room and it was 3 inches too long. I asked how this could be but got no answer. Naturally a bunch of alterations were necessary and I was informed that I have to pay for them since the dress was less than $ 600. I argued that I paid extra to avoid this but was stuck with the bill regardless. I went back after alterations and it was still too big. Back to the seamstress it went. After all said and done, my $ 250 dress became $ 340 with alterations and «custom» order. Don’t waste your time or money.

I’ve purchased two very important dresses at Exclusively You (EY) in the past 4 years. The first was a bridesmaid’s dress for my brother’s wedding in 2009. The other BM’s and I went with my sister-​in-​law to try on dresses and the staff were very helpful pulling designers, fabrics and styles of dresses for us to try that could come in the color the bride was looking for. We found the perfect dress for us that day and the ordering and pick-​up process was a breeze.
The next dress I ordered at EY was my wedding dress. Kim’s team at Exclusively You made me feel like I was the only bride in the store. I had found my dream dress while shopping out of state, but didn’t want the hassle of purchasing and then transporting it home to PA for the wedding. I called and asked them to let me know when the style would come in so I could make an appointment to try it on there and decide if I felt comfortable ordering my dress from EY. I was in love with a full lace dress that was not going to be easy to alter if there were issues (lace detail on the bottom and keyhole back). They understood the sizing for this particular designer’s dresses, advised me smartly which size to order (so I wouldn’t have to wear crazy tall heels) and alleviated my worries and fears.
I went for three fittings and every time Kim and the seamstress assessed every detail of the dress to make sure that nothing was out of place. If it was, it was noted and fixed the next time I came in. They were absolutely going to make sure that I loved how my dress fit, and the dress was tailored perfectly to my body. One great thing to know is that they offer free alterations if your dress is a certain price or higher. I don’t remember the price, but it’s a wonderful service that also sets them aside from other bridal shops.
I would recommend this shop to any bride in the area. They really listen and work with you to help you find that perfect dress.
