From the reviews

I drove 2 1/2 hours to come to An Affair To Remember Dress Shop! I had went to Foxy Lady, Fancy Frocks, and a few other stores in my hometown of Myrtle Beach to be very disappointed. Coming to An Affair to Remember I was nervous to feel uncomfortable and out of place sense feeling that way in other dress shops.

★★★★★ — Mckenzie, Feb 2022

Found this store on google. Drove up from SC with my daughter to try on prom dresses. Worked with Desiree’. She was lovely! Very friendly and helpful with all of the fittings. We knew it would be difficult to find a dress as my daughter is very small- size 00. I was shocked at the selection.

★★★★★ — Tricia, Mar 2025

I love this store, and I cannot imagine a better retailer for Mother of the Bride/Groom dresses. They have an exquisite selection, with a broad range of prices, styles and sizes. The staff have just the right touch.

★★★★★ — Lee, Mar 2026

The staff and environment are top notch. Their inventory is the best in the nation. Whether looking for Prom, Cocktail, Pageant, Couture or Custom Designed, AATR is the place for you. I’ve worn their gowns and dresses to every event imaginable from work celebrations to Gubernatorial and Presidential Inagurations.

Plus size bridal & formal at An Affair to Remember Prom, Pageant, and Formal Wear

An Affair to Remember Prom, Pageant, and Formal Wear comes up for plus size bridal and formal wear — confirmed on their own site. Two things to know before the trip. First, bridal shopping is usually by appointment — book ahead, and when you call, ask what size range their try-on samples come in. A shop can order almost any gown in your size, but the sample sizes on the floor decide whether you actually get to see yourself in the dress, and the good plus bridal shops stock samples to try, not just to imagine. Second, plan the alterations timeline: gowns and formal dresses typically go through two or three fittings, so the comfortable window is starting your search around 8–10 months before the date and saying yes to a gown by 6.

Big & tall at An Affair to Remember Prom, Pageant, and Formal Wear

Reviews and the store's own info mention men's big & tall at An Affair to Remember Prom, Pageant, and Formal Wear — extended sizes, longer inseams and sleeve lengths, or a dedicated big & tall selection rather than a single rack. If you need specific sizes (tall lengths, extended necks, wide-width shoes), a quick call ahead saves the trip: stock in the far ends of the size run moves fast, and many stores can order your size even when it's not on the floor that day.
