Hi, my name is Christy Hollingsworth, (married name is now Christy Strom, but I’m still getting used to that!) and I married my Aaron on September 25, 2010. I call him “my Aaron” because I have a sister who is also named Erin and because no one ever knows who I am talking about I differentiate between the two by “my Aaron” and “sister Aaron”. I purchased my dress a little over a year before our wedding date. I had found it in a magazine and called all over MN to find a store that had it on stock and no one did. I’ve heard the reputation that the Wedding Shoppe has and really wanted to do business with there so after trying on a few dresses to no avail, I brought in the picture of the one I had found in the magazine. They found a similar dress by the same designer so I was able to see if the shape and look worked for me and after a lot of thinking, I ordered the dress without even trying it on. I loved the picture so much so I just prayed I would love it on me as well! It came in and it magically fit me the way I had hoped. I didn’t really think too much about the dress after that until I was being fitted because I wasn’t too thrilled with the way the bustle looked. It seemed to take away the look of the dress because the train wasn’t very long to begin with and with the bustle it looked like a straight up and down dress with no flare at the bottom. I decided not to bustle it because of that, but I admit I was a little worried that I wasn’t as in love with the dress as I was to begin with. All of that changed though on the wedding day, putting everything together from the shoes to the jewelry to the veil, it was PERFECT. I have never felt more beautiful in my life! I wore my dress with pride that day and think I love it even more now than I did in the beginning. I had so many compliments on how it suited ME and my personality so I think I can say I know myself pretty darn well to be able to order my wedding dress without even trying it on! We had a fabulous celebration and the look on Aaron’s face when we first saw each other is something I will never forget. His tears of happiness and love will forever be a favorite memory of our wedding day. Thank you very much for your wedding guidance and to the custom fitting team in helping my dress fit me perfectly!
Sincerely,
Christy Strom

Last prom season I purchased a dress from the Wedding Shoppe, and I could not have been happier with my experience! When you walk into the store your are immediately greeted by their friendly staff, all of who are more than happy to assist you in finding a dress for your occasion. I was able to describe what I wanted to the saleswoman and within an hour she had helped me find the perfect dress! The dress I found however was not in my size or the color that I wished to have it in, but the Wedding Shoppe was more than happy to order it for me and had it shipped to the store in time for my prom! Once I had my dress I did not have to worry about searching every store in town to find shoes and accessories to match, because the Wedding Shoppe has them all right there in their store! I found a pair of shoes that I loved, but they only came in white, and my dress was orange. So the staff at the Wedding Shoppe dyed the shoes for a small cost to match my dress perfectly. I was also assisted in finding a pair of beautiful earrings and a bag to match my dress, which were both very reasonably priced! The Wedding Shoppe made my search for a prom dress extremely easy, and the staff really puts time into your search and makes you feel special. My time in the Shoppe was enjoyable, and I cant wait to go back this year to find another beautiful dress!
