Lily Bee's Boutique, Bridal and High End Consignments

"Prom season is coming up so my friend and I wanted to look and see what styles and colors we would be interested in so we decide to go look around, not purchasing anything quite yet. So we come in and we aren't greeted right away but the worker who greeted us after we walked in we both thought was a customer, just saying hello. We are then approached by a woman who immediately seemed upset. She was not welcoming whatsoever and she asked us if we were planning on purchasing anything and we explained that we were looking around to see what styles we would be interested in for prom. We were immediately told that we couldn't try on any dresses because it would "ruin the dresses". Then after saying that she proceeded to ask us what size we were looking for, which I thought was pointless because we can't even try them on. After looking around she then tells us that we are looking at the dresses wrong and that we needed to pull them a certain way because the "straps would get tangled with the others" which confused us because the dresses were in individual bags. The worker continued to glare at me and my friend the whole time as if we were going to take off running with one of the dresses. My friend and I were waiting for this woman to tell us that we couldn't breathe on these dresses as it would again "ruin the dresses". Overall dresses were very overpriced for the style that they were and the service was very poor."

"DO NOT leave dresses here for resale! We dropped off a bridesmaids dress, and REGULARLY CHECKED on it to see if it had sold. When I checked up on it again today, I was told that it had a broken zipper and had been “donated”. There was nothing wrong with the dress when it was dropped off. If the zipper was broken it happened while in their store. Which, if that was the case, fine… Call the customer and inform them. Instead of doing that though, they “donated” it without permission. The owner herself told me that they have over 5,000 dresses and couldn’t do that because it would be too hard, and she hung up on me! Really?! Every dress is numbered and connected to an account. You didn’t check the account before “donating” it?! And, if you checked the account, it was too hard to pickup the phone and make a call to the customer who the dress belongs too?! That at minimum is complete negligence, and at worst is outright theft! DON’T trust this business your dresses!"

"Such a cute dress shop, found my dream wedding dress here! Im so happy with the service. They even worked with me on different things. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"

"for 4 years at WSU and always have been hesitant about shopping here. It is advertised as a bridal store and the window displays are clearly targeted towards more mature styles so I have never been interested. However, I have heard good things about price’s recently from coworkers so when I had a class project come up regarding touring local retailers I took it as an opportunity to shop for myself and collect data for my project. I was browsing the front dress section first and was not immediately greeted upon entrance as the clerk was speaking with another customer. This obviously didn’t bother me so I began looking through the dresses to take pictures for later reference. The clerk still had not greeted me so I figured I was fine to continue. However, she suddenly came over after apparently realizing what I was doing. She asked if I was price matching to online options and I was honest and told her about my class project. Her demeanor instantly fell cold and she said she, “Doesn’t want me doing that in her business.” I felt incredibly uncomfortable and unwelcomed and instead of attempting to explain myself I just left. This is really unfortunate because I actually did like the clothing and would have purchased something day of or would have brought my mom who’s coming next weekend to shop with me. But unfortunately I don’t see myself giving this store another try. Very disappointing."

"I was there for maybe 30 seconds, and immediately got assistance, the owner was extremely friendly, and new what I wanted before I wanted it! The prices are just as expected and I was happy! I tried on the one dress she showed me and I was in LOVE!! She also sold me a pair of shoes and earrings to match, I bought it immediately I didn’t even want to try on another! They had a clean establishment and she has clear rules! I will definitely be going back for the next upcoming event!"
