From the reviews

I was dreading this appointment. My MOH has been pushing me to try on dresses for about a month. So I pinterested “Plus Size wedding dress” and picked some random silhouettes in hopes that if I find the most plain dress, I won’t have any dress regrets... Amanda Ritchey, you are an amazing person.

If I can give this place a million stars I would! First off, my wedding is on September 18 , 2021. It is a “last minute” wedding. I was very nervous about getting a dress, as a lot of places would like at least 6 months before the wedding.

This store is absolutely amazing!!! I was one of the unfortunate brides in the middle of the Alfred Angelo bankruptcy fiasco. I lost my wedding gown and veil due to the closing. On top of that, I live in Florida and had to come to Pennsylvania to be with my mom for two weeks as she was sent to the hospital.

★★★★★ — Kristin, Jul 2017

I shopped here before the name change, and I chose it SPECIFICALLY because they embrace larger bodies. I also liked that they did their best to read me as a bride. I was very no-nonsense, but you could totally gush it up in your "Say Yes to the Dress" moment.

Plus size bridal & formal at AR Buxom Bridal (Plus Size Bridal Boutique)

AR Buxom Bridal (Plus Size Bridal Boutique) 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. Alterations are mentioned on site here, which makes the fitting logistics a whole lot easier.
