Most of us must be familiar with the show SAY YES TO THE DRESS.
In Say Yes to the Dress, staff members of premier bridal salon Kleinfeld help brides-to-be find the perfect wedding dress.
How can you be a part of the show?
Every bride to be from around the world wants to be a part of the show or if not at least wants to get her most perfect dress from Kleinfeld.
Kleinfeld was previously situated in Brooklyn but now it is in Manhattan.
TLC's Say Yes to the Dress is always looking for unique and heartwarming wedding stories.
You can be a part of the show too. All you have to do is fill up this application form and answer all the questions.
The appointments for the show can take up a long long time like around 5-6 hours because there are a various types of interviews and all.
Kleinfeld has a great variety of wedding dresses. They have dresses for all sizes and in three colours:- white, ivory and pink.
Kleinfeld has the most plus size dresses around as compared to most of the other bridal boutiques.
Unfortunately, there is no fancy bridal boutique around the place I live. Most of the brides here buy their dresses from a retail store, rent them, borrow them or have them custom made (80% of the time it is custom made by a tailor).
It is a dream of every girl to buy her dress for her big day from Kleinfeld. Most of the dresses at Kleinfeld are designer one's
The consultants at Kleinfeld are very helpful. They don't charge you for an appointment. What they do is try really hard that you leave out of there with a dress bought.
Dresses in Kleinfeld could be very expensive and the sales associates have quotas that they have to meet each month so they will try their best to sell you a dress for them to get a commission. It's like that in every bridal shop but because Kleinfeld is such a prestigious bridal shop the pressure is higher.
There is no obligation like you have to buy or dress or anything. It is totally up-to you. The consultants there are very talented though, they are great at picking a dress based on your vision and wants/don't wants.
If you feel that you are unable to buy a dress due to your budget, you can buy it during the Blow out Sale.
Kleinfeld sometimes have big blow out sales where you can buy some selected dresses at almost half the price. If you are lucky enough you can end up saving a thousands of dollars during these sales.
Here is a promo poster of the BLOWOUT SALE from 2009.
All you have to do is that you should be well prepared in advance. You should know what you want to buy. Because the crowd for such an event is huge and someone else may end up getting your dream wedding gown.
Do your homework well and reach the place atleast few hours in advance because you will have people lining up.
If you do not wish to buy your dress from such sale, you can make a bridal appointment. You can make an appointment and get a personalized and an excellent service. You can find the store timings here.
The store also takes care of all the alterations and changes you want to be made in your dress but they charge for all that.
Apart from wedding gowns, Kleinfeld also has a wonderful variety of other accessories like veil, tiara, jewelry, etc.
Yes, the store is expensive! They do have sample sales. Not sure when they do it. If I get to know about any upcoming Blow Out Sale I will surely update it on this post or on my blog.
Usually, on the show the cheapest dress they seem to advertise is around $1,000. When you go into the store, tell them your budget. Stick with it! Don't try on any dress you know you can't afford!!
Has TLC’s ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ ruined one of New York’s best wedding spots?
When you go to Kleinfeld, make sure you take the right people with you and not the ones who will make a mess. Avoid taking extremely small kids. Be sure to take your parents.
Make sure about your theme, style of dress, venue etc before saying yes to your dress.
Kleinfeld is majestic but can be overwhelming if you don’t know exactly what you want.
All the best.
