Kelly?s Closet was recommended to me by a friend, and I suspect that a great deal of their business comes from the recommendations of happy customers. This was the only bridal salon I visited in my dress search where I didn?t feel pressured or rushed in any way. There is a actually a sign in the dressing area insisting that the word FAT must not be spoken here ? the attitude is finding a dress that suits you (in body and personality), rather than forcing yourself into a bride stereotype. Accordingly, there are a great variety of styles that deviate from the strapless princess numbers which swamp every other store. All the salespeople I encountered were helpful and courteous, Kelly herself (a fabulous person) was present a great deal of the time, friends were welcome to join my fittings, and everything was amazingly relaxed and low-key. I was even encouraged to try on dresses I had no interest in (high couture can get a little weird) just for the fun of it!
Pros: Variety of styles, no-pressure atmosphere
Cons: $$$
