"Jessica was my consultant and she made the experience so pleasurable."
"Kristine took her time and got to know about me and my vision while keeping my budget in mind which is super important."
"Katie helped me find my gown!"
"Sydney helped me find the dress of my dreams. I honestly loved every dress in the shop and it was actually difficult for me to choose."
"Marissa from the Brooklyn location was amazing."
"Valerie was so kind and patient... attentively listening to the soon to be brides requests."
"Stephanie was the best bridal consultant, a girl could ask for."
Cons:
"The selection is okay but we definitely felt rushed."
"They both made us feel extremely uncomfortable and I felt attacked the whole entire time as if I was a bad person."
"Our poor and disappointing encounters were mostly with Kristine and one less-than-stellar experience with Nina as well."
"Kristine was the person who 'helped' me & mom during both dress & veil appointments. She made me and my mom feel rushed and unimportant during both appointments."
"I do not care for businesses that are rude and disrespectful to people of color, and I refuse to support or endorse Lotus Bridal."
"Such a poor experience with this store, which is unfortunate because they have beautiful dresses."
"The tailor did such a poor job on the bustle that it fell apart during the middle of reception."
Price and Affordability

Cons:
"I purchased my wedding dress from Lotus Bridal... and now another $500 for alterations, which could have been avoided!"
"However, I was ready to buy my dress at my last appointment and was actually able to find the same dress for much much less elsewhere."
"The first time, I tried the current samples they have. They have a great selection but it was out of my budget."
"Now I'm stuck with a dress that I can't look at, I'm going to have to take a loss when I sell it and will have to look for a new dress altogether."
"I took my dress out of Lotus and will not give them business again."
"The store did not order the dresses until six months after we placed the order."
"Also, please be aware, the fitting appointments here are done in a very sketchy stuffy attic, with poor ventilation. I almost fainted twice from lack of air circulation up there."
