"I found my dress at Greta's last fall and the dress was a bit big on me to begin with. Of course, I picked a dress that the vendor no longer orders, so we bought the only dress in the store because of this. Plus I would need alterations anyway since I am only 5'3". Well I ended up losing 18 pounds, from September to January, which is a lot for a wedding dress. I showed up to my next appointment and Peggy, the seamstress, ended up resizing me and told me the dress would need to be taken in by 2 dress sizes. To my surprise, Greta ended up calling me after the appointment to inform me that she got a hold of the dress vendor and they added the dress back in rotation and can definitely order my size. Greta went above and beyond for me. They are very flexible and willing to work with you. If you are looking for a wedding dress, make sure to visit Greta's Bridal & Formalwear! You won't regret it."
"There are a ton of dresses here, but a lot of them are samples and can’t be ordered in different sizes only what’s on the rack. However I acknowledge the huge selection. Greta is very very pushy she was following us to the door when we were leaving still trying to make a sale. She was alsobblatantly rude and body shamed me the entire time, literally pointing at my butt saying it wouldn’t fit in anything below a certain size. At one point she ripped a dress out of my hand because she didn’t think it would fit me. She then proceeded to direct me to dresses that were 4-5 sizes bigger than I am and only made me try on gowns that hung off of me like a trash bag they were so big. The other store associates were very nice and sweet, though."
"Greta's Bridal offers a massive selection of gorgeous wedding gowns in literally every style and size you can think of. They have everything from the latest trends to the most classic styles. Normally I would find this overwhelming, but our bridal stylist Anita was an absolute gem. She listened to what I was interested in and helped find great dresses that fit my vision. She also encouraged me to try other styles which made the whole process extra fun. Anita was attentive and affirming; she complimented the dresses she liked, but she did not hesitate to be honest when we weren't loving a specific dress. Overall, the customer service Anita offered made the whole experience welcoming, easy, and fun. I found a beautiful dress that I loved a lot."
"Greta saved the day before my wedding day last year!! She did an absolutely perfect job pressing my ballgown dress! Greta agreed to help with late notice after my original plan fell through and I was traveling in from out of town after carrying my dress which was very wrinkled. She did a meticulous job with a difficult fabric and even consulted with the store where I bought the dress to be sure she handled everything correctly. She also personally delivered my dress to the Morris Inn, helped take it out of the bag and make sure everything still looked ok after moving the dress. She was also so kind and attentive throughout the process. I am so grateful for Greta and would HIGHLY recommend her if you need help pressing a wedding dress."
"I went to a few dress stores in Indy before visiting here around Thanksgiving. I had found a few potential dresses in the other stores, but nothing perfect. Anita was great at grabbing dresses that fit the description/feel of what I wanted. And I found a dress I was very happy with (still not perfect, I was hoping for off the shoulder sleeves). But I already had an appointment set with another local dress store. The owner was trying a bit of sales tactics, saying my dress may be gone if I left but in the end she yielded and said she was hold it for me for the rest of the day. Greta is a bit stern and based on the reviews sometimes a bit rude. I did not experience that with Greta and I appreciated that she was flexible with holding the dress for me. I ended up returning to purchase the dress after determining that the other store had nothing I wanted. I also had a good experience with their seamstress, although the dress fit so well I didn't have her do much work. She would have worked with me to add sleeves, but the extra cost and not knowing if I would actually like the final product kept me from doing so. I did have her fix some of the beading and add the bustle clip, so left the dress in their hands until a month or so before the wedding. I was very happy with the experience and got a great dress for a good price."
