From the reviews

Hands down the best prom dress shopping experience I have ever had! Tara was absolutely amazing and knows just how to make a girl feel beautiful in anything. She had no problem letting me try many of dresses and still going with the first one I tried on. I will definitely be coming back!

★★★★★ — Abby, May 2023

I had such an amazing experience at Memories. This was my first time ever trying on bridal dresses. Shelby made me feel special, she was very attentive and listened to what I wanted and didn’t want. I appreciated the mirror in the dressing room so I could see myself before going out to my entourage.

★★★★★ — Rachelle, Jan 2026

I made an appointment for a Friday evening at Memories. Our consultant was Madelynn. We were looking for a dress for my child to wear to my niece’s quinceañera in August. Madelynn let us just browse after talking with us for a few minutes and we selected some things to try on.

★★★★★ — Liz, Jun 2026

Memories is where both of my sisters had found their wedding dresses so when I got engaged, I knew I needed to make an appointment here. Even before I showed up for my appointment, I received a little gift and the sweetest card in the mail that Memories was excited to help me find my dream dress.

Plus size bridal & formal at Memories Bridal & Evening Wear

Memories Bridal & Evening Wear 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.
