Best prices! I got a beautiful dress that had and extensive amount of detail on the dress and It was a great price. My bridesmaid dresses were turquoise and were perfect for a beach wedding. Teresa is so nice!!! She is very professional. The alterations were very reasonable in price and they were done correctly.

I loved my Dress! It was a great Value! Everything seem to good to be true when I found my dress there at such a great price with alterations and pressing included! The first try on when my dress arrived went great besides standing outside waiting for the door to be unlocked for 20 min. The Second fitting I waited 40 min past my appointment time due to another bride before me. I don't know if they were late or she was double booking brides. We made the alteration plans and another appointment for the final fitting. I had my bridesmaid meet me there because I was told to have someone come with me. She had to find someone to take care of her 5 kids to come meet me and then my dress wasn't even there! We both went there for no reason and didn't know that it was not going to be ready for me to try on until we showed up. I was told it would be there for me to pick up on the day before my wedding and that I wouldn't need to try int on. Well I went with another bridesmaid to get my dress and I tried it on anyway. It was wrinkled and didn't look pressed. The store owner said they would not come out, but that see tried to get the wrinkles out. I was told I could try to put my dress in the bathroom with the shower running hot water to have the steam to help get out wrinkles. I took my dress and decided I would figures something out myself. We tried a steamer and I ended up Ironing my dress the morning off the Wedding on my mom's Bed. It looked so much better after I ironed the bottom of the dress. Fortunately the top part was a lot of Ruching and looked fine when I had it on. I just don't think my dress got Pressed at all. I was told a few times during my last fittings and final pick up that they were really busy with prom! For me, prom was not my concern it was my Wedding!!!! Well, hopefully this was an isolated situation and future brides will have a pressed dress!

Spend your money somewhere else! These people are crooks! Teresa, the owner, is a horrible person! I ordered a dress in February for a September wedding. They were nice at first and had me pay full up front in cash. They said I'd get the dress in 12-14 weeks. 16 weeks later I followed up with them for the status and Teresa told me my dress would be in that friday and they'd call me. No call on friday, no call the next week, or the week after. I called again, now almost 5 months since I ordered the dress and Teresa told me it was coming in the next day and she would call me. Next day- no call. Finally had to go in to the store that friday looking for my dress. Teresa told me it was coming in that afternoon and she'd call me when it came in. An hour later, it suddenly appeared. Went to pick it up and it had a stain on the back, it was the same size as the sample dress I tried on originally, and there was dirt all along the bottom. It was obviously the sample dress! When I confronted them about it, they couldn't provide any documentation this was a new dress- no order form (mysteriously deleted from their computer), no delivery forms, tracking number, or packaging (even though it was just delivered an hour earlier), and no sample dress (they conveniently sold it). Teresa told me that it doesn't matter anyway because they don't give refunds. HORRIBLE!!Save yourself the trouble and spend your money somewhere else!!! BEWARE!!

I found my dress at Alayna's for $500 less then what I originally found it for at another salon. The prices of their alternations are included in the final price of the dress, which is another bonus. The only problems with Alayna's was that they forgot to do my alterations the first time around, so when I went back for my "final" fitting, nothing was done. Then when we picked up my dress the day before the wedding it was supposed to be pressed and it wasn't. None of this was major because the alterations were minor, and we were able to steam the train. If I needed major alterations or it was super wrinkled, I would not have been very pleased. But it worked out in the end. It was worth it to save $500 on my dress.
