From the reviews

There are some really helpful ladies working here, and they pretty regularly update the merchandise. I like this location a lot and go here before other places because I can almost always find what I need and more.

★★★★☆ — Rebecca, May 2019

Jenny the store manager and Khala the assistant manager are both a delight. They are very friendly and are always helpful in all aspects. I enjoy shopping in that particular Cato's. Customer for life!

★★★★★ — Louise, Aug 2018

Nice ladies working in store. Found what I was looking for but realized too late that the item was nearly $8 higher in the store than online.

★★★★☆ — Jacquie, May 2025

Very nice workers. They helped me find what I needed. My leg was hurting and they got me a chair to sit in and brought everything to me.

Plus size bridal & formal at Cato Fashions

Cato Fashions 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.
