The store was nice and the staff very polite and helpful, they greeted me as soon as I entered and offered to help me find everything I wanted. I was able to pick up some cute outfits for a great price and I’ll definitely be coming back whenever I need something cute.

I like this spot. It's not highly populated, but they have great pieces that I don't see at the other rainbow locations. Please don't close this one down anytime soon.

Plus size bridal & formal at Rainbow Shops

Rainbow Shops 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.
