The Bride Factory

Hi everyone,
I hope all is well! Today was a very slow day, like usual on Tuesdays. I worked with Allison again! I was just left out of all the interns so she grabbed me and we worked together. First, we had a bride come in from Canada who was shopping by herself. She had a picture of a dress she wanted so it was very easy. She tried on a couple more to make sure that one was the one, but no matter what she loved that one she picked out. She decided she needed to call her mother before she bought it so she walked out without the dress. The next bride we had was a close friend of Allison's. It was really fun and wow what a unique family. The mother in law showed up in white cotton pants (that were see through), a sequin gold tank top, jean jacket, and bleach blonde hair with some heavy makeup. Her ring tone was Usher. It was so funny and you could tell the bride was very embarrassed, but the mother in law had brought a limo because she doesn't walk anywhere in NYC. The bride wanted a Cinderella dress with a ton of beading and glitter. Allison and I found a beautiful one that flattered her so well and was so nice. Everyone in the family agreed on it, especially mother in law. Next, we had a bride come in with her best friend who also had a very specific dress she wanted. This was her first time shopping though and it was more for a play appointment. She tried on many dresses, but the one is originally picked out was beautiful on her! She did not end up buying one, but I believe she may come back. The last bride we had was from Turkey. She was already married but was going to be having a celebration dinner in Turkey this September and she needed a dress. Because her wedding was so soon, we could only offer her the sample sale dresses, which means she would walk out with that dress that day. She searched the 200 sample dresses we have and found one she really liked. She also had to think about it, but she said she would be in on Thursday!
I also had the pleasure to get to know Sara more today! She is the one on the TV alot! She has dark curly hair and is very nice! It is fun to have chats in the dressing rooms sometimes when it is slow! We call Kleinfelds the "Bride Factory" because when you really think about the industry we are in, all we do is seriously dress these brides in gowns and send them on their way. It is a funny concept when you really think about the bridal industry.  I am excited tomorrow because it is my day off and it is suppose to be in the 80s! Hopefully I can get most of my homework done to enjoy the weather!
I hope all is well
Happy Endings From NYC
