Editorial Review for Bridal Depot – by Citysearch Editors

The Scene
Looking for a wedding gown? The Bridal Depot has an entire floor of them at reasonable prices--frocks for the bride, bridesmaids and mother of the bride, along with shoes to match. Styles originate from about 20 designers, giving the store one of Houston's most extensive inventories under one roof. Too large to be a boutique and too small to be a chain, the store offers great deals, especially if you buy right off the rack.

The Goods
Energetic young salespeople are eager to help and able to establish rapport with the brides. This family-owned business offers good personal service and adequate room. There are eight dressing rooms, and if you still need space there are dressing rooms in the alteration shop downstairs. Men won't find tuxes here, but they can check out the Tuxedo Gallery on the first floor of the mall.

I bought my wedding gown from the Bridal Depot 4 months ago, i received it on time and i was very pleased with the staff. Everyone was very helpful and very kind. I'm from houston, but all my girls were from around the US so they had to call in their measurements. The girl who helped me told me that they couldnt be held responsible if the dress comes too big or too small being that my girls cant go in and get measured. I totally understood that, and i dont understand why Mrspain is so upset. All my dresses came the right size and just needed the usual alterations, but nothing out of the ordinary. Yes, the guy who wrote down the measurements might of misunderstood what your bridesmaid was saying (mrspain) but keep in mind that she didnt go into the store and get measured by one of the sales people. I t would understandable if your bridesmaid came in got measured and they still ordered the wrong size, but that wasnt the case. I love this boutique and would recommend to everyone!

I'm getting married in one week (8/3/2007). I ordered my bridesmaid dresses from bridal depot they were from designer jordan. One of my bridesmaids was a size 10 she got a size 20!! The man who i had been working through quit and so we had no one to vouch for us. after a long conversation with the employees of bridal depot it was understood that the dress would be altered and takin care of by bridal depot. The alteration lady was very helpful and took good care of us. Until i recieved a phone call today a week from the wedding that they werent going to pay for their mistake. The MANAGER replied with they reviewed the charts again and it was my mistake and i would have to take the dress else where and settle with them in court. So asked for their corporate phone # and he said he was the only one i could speak with. WOW!!Heres what the chart read 35 bust 40 waist!! which was 30. A proffesional would know right away this was a mistake. And proffesional they are not. If you're looking for a nightmare this is your place.

Pros: the alerations lady is wonderful and does customized work.

Cons: the manager doesnt care if your wedding goes to hell.
