Bridal shop with an abundance of choices

I had a great experience at this bridal shop and purchased a dress and veil. The bridal consult was amazing, patient, and helpful throughout the entire appointment. Since it's located in Scottsdale I was a bit concerned I wouldn't find a nice dress within my budget but they have sooo many dresses in each price category. I highly recommend Schaffers.
