The Aventura Bridal

DON'T DO IT!!! Went here because the bride thought it would be better on the budget. Dress prices beat competitors, or at least we thought. I can go into any store and buy a 0/2 off the rack and need no alterations. When I was measured, I asked what size it would translate to, Nelly would not say and it depended on the designer. Ok fair enough. About a month before the wedding I didn't get a call that my dress was in but a few of the other bridesmaids did. When I called they told me they didn't have it and they would take a size 8 and fit it to my size. I was iffy but ok. Turns out, they found mine but neglected to order one of the other bridesmaids. She tells me over the phone that the size 4 is ready for me. I was skeptical and asked her to make sure that was my size per the measurements she took, she confirmed that it was. When I went to pick up the dress and try it on, it fell below my waist. They proceeded to tell me that if I wore a bra the dress would fit,( note: I could literally wear 7 bras and it still wouldn't have fit). THEY MAKE MONEY ON ALTERATIONS! 2 out of 5 girls were ordered the wrong size and 1 wasn't ordered a dress at all! BRIDES BE WARE, dealing with their lack of organization, attitude, and lack of competence and truth is not worth the couple of bucks you think you'll save!!!! Major major headache. BTW I just got my dress from them on 10/9/11 and now have to take it somewhere else and won't get my dress fixed until 10/19/11 and the wedding is 10/22/11. Thanks! Liked: Disliked:

The lady that owns the place is rude and nasty. i called about my dress and she screamed at me and wouldnt let me talk. not very good customer service. i think in business you should be nice and curteous to the people spending money in your store. altogether bad business ethics especially when she tried to return my dress to the sales floor after i put a deposit on it. stay away...
