Editorial Review for Ultimate Bride – by Anne T. Makeever
The Duds
There's no denying it, Ultimate Bride carries some great gowns. Look for gorgeous things by Christian Dior, Lazarro, Amsale, Richard Glasgow, Scaasi and other top-end designers. Traditional, simple gowns abound, but so do some other, more dramatic looks. The buyers here go for luscious fabrics and some truly exquisite lacework. Call and ask about their trunk show schedule and you could end up meeting the designer of your dress.
The Service
The sales staff do take themselves a bit seriously, it's true, but they are experienced and professional. Don't be intimidated; there are plenty of salespeople interested in helping you find the best dress. But do be on time for your appointment and don't take an entourage, just one or two companions you trust to give you an honest assessment. Follow these basic rules of bridal salon etiquette and you should all get along just fine.

Okay, I am just a bridesmaid, but I have had the WORST experience with Ultimate Bride. First, using their "expert opinion," they made me buy a dress that was 2 sizes too big (according to the place I finally took my dress to get altered). At first I was going to get my dress altered at Ultimate Bride, but the first time I went in, they acted like I was a nuisance, and sent me on my way because I didn't have my shoes (even though on the phone before the appt., they said I didn't need them...). Then, I made an appointment for another try only to show up for my 2nd appt...and they were CLOSED!!! When I called to complain, the woman snickered a bit saying "this happens all the time..." WHAT? I finally picked up my dress and took it to another shop for alterations. I paid a lot of money for that dress and am sure UB got a cut of that money. I am shocked by how they manage customers!!! By the way, the other bridesmaids AND the bride have all had trouble with them too; Don't go to UB if you want a pleasant wedding experience!!!!!! They really need to get it together!!
Pros: none
Cons: terrible customer service, sell faulty products, bad attitudes, no organization, dirty appearance
