Bad Idea: We went to Debra Dee's only because Jenny's was closed on the day my family was in town to shop for wedding dresses. First impression of the shop was that it was run down with dirty rose coloured carpet and dingy lighting. We thought we might as well look around since we were already there. What a mistake. The sales staff ignored us for a good five minutes, not even a hello even though they were right at the front desk. Finally a girl came and helped out with dresses. She was very good but I think she is probably now on mat leave. Shame because she was nice and helpful. The changerooms were not exactly private and there wasn't even a slip to put on over my undies. The viewing area doesn't even have sitting for family members helping you shop. Come on even wal-mart has benches beside the change rooms! So I find a gown and fall in love with it. Now comes time for taking measurements. The sample gown is a size eight and it is a tad loose. They measure me, and act not very confident at all about what they are doing, and tell me I am between a size 8 and 10? I sure hope we ordered the correct size. I am told my dress will be in in early March. (We ordered beginning of September) So I pay in full and we leave. November rolls around and we decide to order my sister's bridesmaid dress through there since she will at least get a 10% discount. (Looking back I don't know why we were tempted by it) They measure her up and tell her her top half is a size five and her bottom is a size fourteen... enough said about their measuring skills. March comes and no call about either gown. I call the shop only to have to explain repeatedly that myself and my sister are in fact, two different people and that there are two different dresses. Sales associates remain confused through the next few communications until I finally go into the shop to pick up the size 5 dress we ordered my sister. Thank god it looks ok, and that we didn't listen to them and order a larger size! Confusing two people with similar names however, is unacceptable! If I do that at my job someone will die! How would you like it if I screwed up your crossmatch and gave you the wrong blood because you had a similar name to someone else? It is now April 9th and my dress is over a month late. I have argued with more than one sales associate about how many months it has been, none of them can count. If it was ordered when the receipt says is was, it should have been here last month. Last week we go into the store and ask for them to track the shipment. We are abrubtley told that no they can not do that. The dressmakers are behind.. dress has to pass through customs.. why are you even worried, your wedding isn't even until June. Rude tone, rude responses. I am so worried that the dress has not even been ordered. I will not let them touch it for alteration if it ever does show up. DO NOT SHOP HERE!!

Go somewhere else: I have had nothing but horrible experiences at this store.<br/>
I bought my grad dress there 8 years ago and when the woman doing my alterations was rude I just assumed it was because I was young and some people just don't like teenagers. <br/>
But since then, I've had a woman hang up on me when I asked her about measurements for a bridesmaid dress, and yesterday we were told to leave because they were "too busy to help" us (her words). There was only one other bride in the whole store, and a lot of employees by the front desk so I'm not sure why no one was available to help us. <br/><br/>I work in retail part time while I attend university so I think of myself as a courteous and friendly customer and I can't wrap my mind around a store that treats customers (and potential sourcs of revenue) with so much disrespect. <br/><br/>After we were told to leave, we did..My friend ended up finding her perfect dress at another store where the employees were helpful and accomodating.<br/><br/>I've been telling people for years about their horrible service and yesterday only confirmed that I've been right to do so.

Great Service and Selection!: Liz picked out the first dress based on the pictures I brought in and it was "The One!" Great service from this Saskatoon store! Thank you a thousand times Liz. PS We bought my high school graduation dress here 10 years ago and knew we had to come back.
