    I had a FANTASTIC experience at Everything But the Groom. After being highly disappointed at the other two bridal stores in Langley, we entered this cute boutique wedding store on Fraser Highway. They were able to get us in for bridesmaids dresses for myself and three friends. They have four lounges which is great for privacy and fun and you don't have to worry about the whole store seeing you OR people passing between you and your mirror! I HATE that!!! We had a lounge to ourselves and our consultant Felisha was excellent. She made us feel welcome and was very knowledgeable about the products they sold. We had two plus size girls and his store had a nice range of dresses for girls over an 18. We had so much fun! I HIGHLY recommend this store. The customer service was superb, the staff was knowledgeable and enthusiastic and the store had a great selection! Thank you so much!!

    Such an amazing group of girls work here! It was by far the nicest bridal salon that I went to, and they were so helpful even after I bought my dress! Alterations were also extremely affordable as compared to in the city.

    Everything But The Groom bridal was so beautiful. Trying on dresses in the private fitting rooms and having such amazing service by the girls made me feel like a princess! Every time I went in, the girls remembered me, and made me feel welcome and special. The seamstress, Victoria, designed a gorgeous and very original bustle and got the dress to fit me and had it ready in time. The dresses EBTG offers are beautiful and affordable, everything was high quality from what I saw.

    These guys were awesome! I called last minute and asked if I can come and look at dresses, knowing Id be too late for an appointment. I came in, was greeted nicely, and then asked if it is possible to try on some of the dresses I was eyeing. They were SO accommodating and allowed me to try on the dresses. The lady was very helpful with assisting me in the wedding dresses, etc. I will be making a second appointment to come back with my family.
    OH and they have BEAUTIFUL dresses.....they select gorgeous dresses from the designers they carry and their prices are VERY reasonable.

    The ladies at everything but the groom are lovely! I booked an appointment 3 hours prior and walked out with my dress!!! The lady who helped me was very accommodating to stay within my budget and brought me dresses I hadn't seen that were all within my budget. I'd highly recommend!

    I bought my dress at Everything But the Groom and I am SO happy with it! I had a great experience here, unlike at other salons. I walked in without an appointment and I did not expect them to serve me but they did, and graciously. I picked out 3 dresses, instantly hated 2 of them and fell in love with the 3rd. I slept on it for 2 weeks, and ended up coming back to buy the dress! The staff went above and beyond with service - emailing me to let me know the dress was going on sale and that if I'd like to change my appointment to that day, I could, so I could get the sale price.

    I highly recommend this store for bridal gowns - and they have lots of bridesmaid options too. It's worth the drive out, even from Vancouver!! Thank you EBTG for making my "dress stress" melt away! I can't wait to wear it on the big day! :)

    I walked in off the street to hopefully find a dress at Everything but the Groom. I did not expect helpful service at that time, since I had already been to two other wedding dress stores, and had required an appointment. The other stores had allowed me to look at the dresses, but were adamant that they would not help me unless I had an appointment. The ladies at Everything but the Groom were very helpful, and I found a dress off the rack which I tried on (with assistance) and it looked lovely. I just had to lose a few pounds in a few weeks, and have a couple of alterations done to the dress (the shoulder lace area, and the hem). The seamstress was very understanding about my issues with my bra, and offered to take one of my bras apart and sew the cups into the dress to assist the fit. She did this, and made a wonderful job of it - you could not see that anything had been done from the outside of the dress. She is helpful, funny and absolutely honest with you about how the fit works or does not, and what both she and (you) can do to make it happen. Her obvious experience in dressmaking made the fitting and alteration very personally about how my body would fit into the dress as beautifully as possible, which is what I think we all want. I was very pleased with all of the service at this bridal store.

    I purchased my wedding dress and three brides maid dresses, and returned to buy a special occasion dress from the bridesmaids collection myself. The buying experience is warm, friendly, and NOT PUSHY and a great price point.
    The alteration service is great. Yes, if your bra is not new... She's gonna tell you to buy a new one. Go to forever yours lingerie ( same street) and come prepared with the right shoes and the right bra. I have seen this seamstress completely re build a dress to fit 2 sizes bigger and seen her rework a dress to accomodate big busts. She is very friendly and knowledgable, but most importantly you can trust her to make you look great in your dress.

    I recommend EBTG and their alteration work to my friends and family.

    I bought my dress at Everything But The Groom and they were great and so helpful from the moment I walked through the door for my first appointment. I found my dress but still went to another store to try on a few more dresses. The lady at the store was very understanding and seem genuinely happy for me when I returned to try on my dress again and eventually purchase it. Everything But The Groom is definitely a step above other bridal salons.

    The ladies here were all very friendly, and made the dress shopping experience very enjoyable. They have lots of affordable options here which I loved! I also had my alterations done here, and found it to be quite affordable. Would definitely recommend!

    I have had nothing but good experiences here. I am even a repeat customer! I bought my grad dress from this store years ago, and now have also purchased my wedding dress from them.

    The setup of the store is great- you get your own room with change room, pedestal, mirrors, and big couch for your entourage. The staff are respectful, considerate and willing to go the extra mile to help you get the perfect dress for you. For me they knew I loved my dress but wanted a train, so they took initiative to contact the designer and ask for me.

    They carry a good selection of dresses (both in style and price) and are really just a wonderful store to visit.

    From fitting to purchase, I had a wonderful experience at EBTG. My Alfred Angelo dress was like something out of a fairy tale, and my step daughters are already dreaming of the day that they get to wear it.

    This was the first place I went to when wedding dress shopping, and after looking at other stores, I came back and picked the first dress I tried on! :) My shopping experience here was wonderful; I had the dressing room to myself, a lovely, bubbly lady helping me pick dresses, a platform to show my dresses off, and a throne-like couch for my bridesmaids to hang out on! It was so much fun, doubly so because the store took good care of us the whole way through.
    I also have a very small frame, and needed alterations; these were done efficiently and on time which i appreciated. I also think out of many stores out there, Everything but The Groom gives really great quality for what you're paying.

    I have bought 2 dresses from EBTG one bridesmaid dress and my wedding dress. The Girls are very attentive, nice and patient with you. Although I did have to argue with one girl with what size to order for me as my seamstress insisted on getting 2 sizes bigger (to accommodate my large breasts). The store was always clean and has lots of affordable selections and sizes to try on. I would recommend this boutique and shop there again.

    I was at Everything But the Groom on May 27th with three other bridesmaids and of course the bride. The store is cute and on a charming street. Felicia was our consultant and was a big help. I loved our private lounge area where we could try on dresses and comment on them without other customers in the same change room, a big difference from David's bridal where we were earlier in the day. The service was excellent and we ended up finding a style that worked for us. A lovely experience all together...I would recommend to any bridal party.

    Great consultants and WONDERFUL dresses!! The service was fantastic, they give you the time you need to make decisions and talk things over with your girls. They were very accommodating with my schedule when making appointments for my alterations. I enjoyed the staff very much and would definitely recommend going here for a bridal appointment!

    One thing that happened was I was to pick up my dress the day before my wedding, which my sister did. But when we got it home there was no veil which we had bought there. However, they did drive it to my house that night because we were having our rehearsal dinner with 25 people and did not have time to go back and get the veil.

    I had a couple of really bad experiences shopping and when I arrived at Everything But the Groom I had very low expectations. I was so surprised, the showroom was beautiful, the dresses were spectacular and my attendant was beyond amazing. Daniela was so lovely, helpful and she made me feel beautiful - took the time to really do up every dress properly and suggesting other dresses based on what I liked and disliked about each dress. GO HERE!!

    I found my dress at Everything But the Groom. It was a great experience. I felt that I had lots of help from the staff there and my own room for my friends and family to sit in while we went through the dresses. A slight issue with the seamstress. She convinced me out of some slight alterations that would have been helpful in holding up the dress. She was also very vocal about whether or not brides needed to lose weight, etc.

    I did not buy my wedding dress here, just had my alterations done by Victoria. It was a fit and flare, backless lace dress that needed to be taken in roughly 3 sizes, added a bustle, hemmed, lowered the back and added cups. While I fully understand it was alot of work she took just under 3 months to finish my dress, with appointments every other week. Her availability was very limited, and i always felt rushed. I would arrive and interrupt another brides fitting to get into the change room, and have the same done to me every appointment. Dress was not finished by the time she stated, leaving me to stress out and not get my dress until 3 days before my wedding. The total cost was just under $700 and while my dress lasted the nite, the stitching is falling apart and will need to be repaired if I ever choose to pass my dress down like I had planned.

    My first experience with them was fine, my second was not.

    My first experience was when I was looking for a wedding dress and they were great and very helpful looking for styles and giving me tips on how to pick up the dresses. I ended up buying a dress from a different store but my two bridesmaids got their dress from here and that's where the problems started.

    We ordered the dresses in September and they came in in November and I was told that one had a huge hole in the front, but they had dealt with it and reordered the dress and it was to come in for March (my wedding is in May). So they came in around mid-March and we just had the alterations appointment yesterday, which is also the first fitting (1 month to the wedding) and it was AWFUL.

    They were 15 mins late to begin (which wasn't too bad) but then, once the girls had gotten into the dress (and we weren't given a room since the previous alterations appointment was still there), the seamstress comes in in a huff and starts basically criticizing my girls because you can see their bras on the sides and the back (they're big chested girls and need the support), saying that this doesn't work and that doesn't work and you can't wear this and that they need to get something to pull down the bra straps at the back and she can't do anything until that's done and literally tells us, word for word, to get out. It was the most rude customer service I have ever had in my life and I was furious. I rescheduled an appointment for later in case I couldn't find another place to get alterations done, but as soon as I found a different place I canceled.

    In summary, if you're a bride they'll treat you fine, but heaven forbid you get alterations done there, especially if you have a dress that requires specific underwear.

    To top it all off, if you look closely enough, the two dresses are slightly different shades of blue.

    BRIDES BEWARE

    I had a horrible experience at Everything But the Groom today. My friends and I had walked into the store searching to find a prom dress for one of our friend. At this store you're suppose to put a clip onto any dresses you would like to reserve for yourself when a room is ready for you, we had placed one onto a cropped top, but apparently these ladies didn't work by their system of using these pointless clips. So they allowed a girl that had a room already to take the one and only top we had reserved which is completely fine, but we all sat in the change room waiting for 40 minutes for them to bring the top for us to try. We had no assistance, all the other change room's had at least 1 or 2 ladies helping, while all my friends and I waited in the room for so long. We eventually left the store, in search to find some quality dresses and service. We went to David's Bridal, and I rate this place 10/10, I highly recommend everyone to go there!

    Everything But The Groom Bridal Boutique's reply:

    Hi Ladies, we are very sorry that you didn't enjoy your experience. This is a very busy time of year and those people that make appoitnments have to be given first priority, since they took the time to make an appointment. We always do our best to help walk in clients, but sometimes there is a wait.
