From the reviews

It's a pretty small store, but the staff are helpful and attentive. If you can't find it on the racks they will look and see if it's in the back or another store has it.

★★★★★ — Chari, Sep 2019

Friendly staff. Boutique style shopping so it's hit and miss as far as finding something. They rotate inventory weekly so that is nice.

★★★★☆ — Juanita, Nov 2019

Staff is always friendly and helpful,will find your size if they dont have it and have great selection and prices!

★★★★★ — Lisa, Dec 2019

Lisa, the store manager, was phenomenal with her customer service skills. She helped take clothes to the dressing room, took away the “no” outfits while I was still trying other outfits on and she remained busy the entire time I was in the store.

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.
