This is the story of Karen and Peter, we have been together for close to 7 years and we have 3 beautiful daughters together. He asked me to be his wife on my birthday when I was expecting our first child. I was surprised, he always said he wants to spend his life with me, even if we're just sitting on the couch, watching tv and eating dinner or playing in the park with our children. He said he would be honored to spend even one more day with me. That's how you know he's a great husband, a great man is the man that doesn't think he deserves you and does everything to try to. A great wife is the same thing. Now I have been engaged for 5 years, and the only reason we haven't gotten married yet is because I do not believe in spending a lot of money on one day, I'd rather put that money on a house or our children. (Which are 4, 14 months and 2 months old) but I really want to be his Mrs. and as much as I would love to have a great beautiful wedding and a gorgeous dress, I feel like spending too much is unrealistic on something that wouldn't be worn again unless my daughters would like to (which has always been a dream for me) I want to the big wedding without the big budget, I know that irrational, but its true hahahaha. Anyways, we meet each other through a sales company and I had an idea he was interested in me but we had both just got out of bad relationships so didn't try to pursue it right away. We sat next to each other and we had switched desks because I wanted the window seat and one day when I was making a sale, I went under my desk (sometimes i went under my desk for more quite) when I looked up, I seen that he had written Peter + Karen = Love, just like the teenagers, I thought it was adorable. Two years later, he's asking me to be continue to be the best thing that has ever happened to him for the rest of our lives and I said yes of course! Nearly 5 years later, we are doing it this November! This month I am hoping to go and get my dress and I would really love to win this contest, as we also are buying our bridesmaids dresses, since they are my step daughters! So I hope you all vote for us and help save this young family some money!! Thanks :) |

Hi Best for Bride,
I would just like to thank all the staff at Best For Bride in Etobikoke for helping my daughter and I find what we were looking for. I can't remember the ladies name that was helping us at the time but she was a tall woman and I believe her name began with a D. My daughter bought her wedding dress there and I bought my dress there as well. We were impressed with the wide selection of dresses that you had to chose from. I looked at so many dresses in other places as the mother of the bride and could not find anything that was suitable. My daughter and I exhausted every wedding shop in London Ontario and could not find the perfect dress. We went to a few places in Mississauga and Toronto and could not find the perfect dress until we visited Best For Bride and that is where she and I found the right dresses for us. Attached is a couple of photos of her day and the dresses we bought from you.
Thanks again,
Wayne

Dear Best for Bride,
I wanted to thank you so very much for the beautiful dress I purchased from you this past summer from the Etobicoke store! Everyone who assisted me with my dress were extremely kind and helpful, especially the seamstress who helped me with my fitting! I am so glad that I found your website online, and I recommend you to everyone! I just wanted to share some photos from my special day, which took place August 7th 2009 in Victoria BC, and also from my trash the dress sesh that took place the following day (thats right! I got to wear my dress twice!) My dress was from the Mori Lee collection, style 6305.
Thank you all again,
Annette McLean (formerly Zwambag)

Dear Olga,
I would like to say how much I enjoyed using your company to order my bridesmaids dresses from.
From the first contact I had immediate responses from you with answers to my enquiries regarding sizes, colour, cost delivery- everything was answered that day or the day after due to the time difference.
When I called the shop I got a very good response as well- cannot fault anything about the ordering process.
Very straight forward and easy to do as you supported me and helped me with all my enquiries.
I was kept in contact the whole time waiting for my dresses so there was no worry that they were not going to be here on time - which is a bit of a concern when I order something from the internet and especially something so important but I felt very confident I had chosen the best company to buy them from.
When the dresses came I was delighted with them! They were absolutely perfectly made and even more lovely than in the picture! They were slightly crushed as I had 2 dresses in a small box but the creases fell out overnight and the dresses were stunning. My bridesmaids loved them and looked absolutely beautiful on our day
I was so proud of them and everyone commented at how beautiful they looked. You can see in the pictures just how lovely they were.
It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Olga throughout my order and she could not have been more helpful and more prompt at replying to my emails and enquiries. I'm not sure who I spoke to on the phone but they were helpful too.Overall I experienced an absolute delightful customer service and excellent quality of dresses and made our wedding day just that extra bit special
Many thanks for all your help and I will be recommending you to all of my friends
Best wishes,
Carolyn
