Experience at Bridal Reflections: Trying on wedding dresses was so much fun! I went to every store, designer, and trunk show in New York City. I loved every style of dresses and picking just one gown was difficult. Bridal Reflections was the last stop on my list and I had already fallen in love with a few gowns that I couldn’t get out of my mind. I was torn. Cristina came out before I left because she heard I was having a problem committing. I showed her the different dresses I had previously fallen in love with and the different elements from each dress that I had loved that were preventing me from committing to just one. Cristina helped me to customize my dress and worked with me for HOURS to design the gown perfectly. No request was too difficult, and they never said no. They were literally pinning 3 different dresses to make sure I could understand the changes, as I am a visual learner. Each person was extremely hands on and worked tirelessly to make sure I felt 100% happy with my dress. When I saw it for the first time, it was everything I had hoped it would be and more!
