I had found a Mori Lee dress online about a year ago that I fell in love with and kept coming back to in my searches. I called all over Long Island and NYC to see if it was in stock anywhere. "No, we don't have it," "We used to carry Mori Lee, but not anymore," "We can ship it in from the designer, but there will be a fee to try it on," was all that I heard... until I called the Bridal Suite of Centereach. What a breath of fresh air! I explained my situation and the person I spoke with said that they did not currently stock it, but she would do everything in her power to get that dress there. I got a call back a few days later saying that the dress was being shipped in for me to try on. When we arrived, Bernadette greeted us at the door and let us know right away that she had the Mori Lee dress ready and waiting. I told her I was nervous and she told me to take a deep breath and that this was going to be fun. Bernadette was so attentive and clicked with me right from the beginning. I expressed what I liked and didn't like and she stayed on track with the additional dress choices (and within my budget). Bernadette was professional and constantly adapted to different things I wanted to try and suggestions my family made. In addition to her excellent dress choices, she was also thorough with the entire look- she gave me veils to try, helped me put on headbands, draped the dresses with various tulle options, and displayed different embellishments all while I was standing in front of the mirror as my family looked on. In the end, I did pick the Mori Lee dress- it fit my personality the best, made my mother, mother-in-law, and (almost) my father well up, and Bernadette genuinely agreed that this was the dress for me. Bernadette was open and honest, explaining why this dress was right where the other ones weren't. Things fell into place perfectly at the Bridal Suite in Centereach, so much so that I ended up canceling my other appointments.

Linda is wonderful! So helpful, attentive and genuinely a great help. She worked with my schedule and helped to keep everyone on task. It was a wonderful experience and I would recommend bridal suites of Centereach to anybody looking for a wedding dress or bridesmaid dresses, especially Linda!

I went to the Bridal Suite with my stepmom, mother in law, and grandmother. My attendant was very patient and listened to exactly what I was looking for. She even persuaded me to try on dresses that I thought I would never want. I loved them all. It was a great experience!

Yesterday, I purchased my wedding dress from the Bridal Suite of Centereach. I had one weekend available to go shopping for my March 2016 wedding, so I had already put a lot of pressure on myself to make sure I found the right dress. The day before, I visited 2 salons and wasn't sold on any of their dresses or the experiences with the customer service etc. When I arrived for my 11 AM appointment, i was helped by Aileen. I immediately told her my budget, what I liked and didn't like in a wedding dress and showed her photos. She allowed myself and one of my bridesmaids to look through the racks and pull what we liked while she did the same. She was not pushy or annoying and was extremely helpful. I finally found the perfect gown and all because Aileen listened to what i wanted - she found me exactly what I explained to her that I was looking for! Another thing I really like about this salon is the alteration cap they supply. I am incredibly relieved to know my alterations will not exceed a certain limit! Thank you Aileen and the Bridal Suite of Centereach!

I found a dress online that I loved and Bridal Suite of Centereach carried that designer. Although they didn't have and couldn't get that particular dress, I made an appointment. Jeannie helped me at that appointment. Before she even took me in to look at or try on dresses she asked what my budget was and if I had any pictures of styles I liked (which I did). She showed me to a dressing room and told me to look around while she pulled a variety of dresses. She brought back at least 15 dresses to start and I fell in love with the first one, which was nothing like the one I loved online, but I told her I wasn't going to be that person and that I wanted to try on everything she pulled. She completely understood, didn't rush me and didn't try to push me toward anything I didn't love. I kept going back to that first dress. I wasn't crazy about the fact that it was strapless so she brought a keyhole that made me love it even more. I ordered the dress and keyhole before I left that day. I liked that there was a limit on the amount they would charge for alterations and the ladies that did the work were nice enough. My only criticism is that at my first fitting, they pinned the dress where it needed alterations and told me my next fitting would be my last. Three and a half weeks later, at my second fitting, the hem wasn't straight and was still too long and although the pins were out the dress hadn't been taken in. I'm glad that when they asked when my wedding was, I said one week earlier than it actually was because I had so much anxiety about the alterations that went away as soon as I picked the dress up.
