From the reviews
I made an appointment to try on wedding dresses and they were so kind and made an exception for my soon to be bonus daughter to come. As soon as I got there Taylor greeted us and helped so much and made sure I was truly 100% in love with the dress I picked and made sure it would here in time for my wedding!
I recently visited Lara’s Bridal in search of a Mother of the Bride dress. I was immediately greeted by Letitia and had the most wonderful experience. She was so friendly and helpful, and made me feel so comfortable. She recommended several dresses (I tried them all on) and helped me pick the perfect dress for me!
After seeing so many bad reviews, I thought I would share my own experience. I have now been to Lara’s twice. Once for a bridesmaid dress, and now for my own wedding dress. Both times the ladies were super nice. The first time I went they were extremely busy, but Shay made sure to help us as much as she could.
I got my dream dress at Lara's a couple weeks ago! I couldn't believe how easy they made it. Jennifer Jividen was so helpful! She helped me check every tag as I have a fabric allergy. She was knowledgeable and just a gem! I could not have asked for better service!
Plus size bridal & formal at Lara's Bridals & Formals
Lara's Bridals & Formals 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 Lara's Bridals & Formals
Reviews and the store's own info mention men's big & tall at Lara's Bridals & Formals — 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.
