From the reviews
They fit me in a day on an unorthodox request and the suit fit perfectly. They were extremely kind and helpful. Fast and punctual experience. I cannot recommend them enough.
SHOP HERE!!!! Seriously if I could give 50 stars I would! The staff are AMAZING! We scheduled a super last minute appointment and she not only squeezed us in but had everything set up and waiting for us when we arrived. I had my dream "Say yes to the dress" moment while staying perfectly within my budget.
Shout out to Susan she was absolutely amazing we broke down ideas on what would look best for my fitting and it worked out great!!
5-Stars! In preparation for our son’s wedding, we visited many stores, both brick and mortar and online, and we were not able to find the dusty blue colors we needed for the tuxes/suits. I stumbled upon this gem of a bridal shop and we couldn’t be more pleased.
Plus size bridal & formal at Ultimate Formals & Tuxedos
Ultimate Formals & Tuxedos 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.
