From the reviews

This place is fabulous! My friend and I came down from Dubuque to find her a dress for her daughter's upcoming wedding. I called first to see if driving down would be worth our while. I spoke to Bernadette, and she pulled some dresses in my friend's size, took pictures, and texted them to me.

I would highly recommend Elegant Repeats to anyone who is getting married! They were so helpful in the process of finding my wedding dress and veil. They were attentive and engaged from start to finish, from giving me a tour of the show room, helping me pick out dresses, helping me try them on, and giving feedback as…

Plus size bridal & formal at Elegant Repeats & Elegant Bridal & Formal

Elegant Repeats & Elegant Bridal & Formal 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.
