    The sweetest people!

    I had such a wonderful experience at Formalities! They were so kind, helpful, and accommodating. Sarah did an amazing job helping me find styles I loved within my budget and was so sweet. Thank you Tracina and Sarah, you're the best!

    Great experience, gorgeous dress

    I had a great experience from start to finish working with Tracina and all the Formalities staff I interacted with over the course of planning my wedding. Formalities was one of the first stops my mom and I made when I started trying on dresses, and I’m so glad it was! We lucked out in having Tracina there while I was trying on dresses, because she was so helpful in the process. Whether it was clipping the dresses to get a better idea of how they would look on me, or adding a veil to get the full effect, or wondering aloud about ease of alterations, she was ready to help with anything. I love the variety of dresses they have available to try on, and that there were plenty in my size or that could at least be clipped to give me an idea. The lighting and mirrors were great to see the dress from different angles. I ended up feeling torn between two dresses, both available to order through Formalities. I so appreciated the staff’s patience with me as I came back a different day to try on both again! Once I decided on the dress & accessories, Formalities was great about helping me decide on sizing and ordering everything quickly for me. Everything arrived beautiful as expected. The seamstress who works out of the upstairs at Formalities worked some magic altering lace sleeves on my gown. Formalities did a great job having my dress looking beautiful for my wedding day!

    I loved working with Formalities and seamstress Theresa! After trying a number of bridal salons across PA and VA, I found a beautiful and unique lace dress at Formalities that I loved -- it was unfortunately discontinued and a size much larger than what I needed. The shop assured me that Theresa could alter the dress easily, and I decided to take the chance and buy it off the rack. As promised, Theresa was a miracle worker, and the dress fit wonderfully for my wedding! I loved it and can't recommend this shop enough.

    Formalities will provide you with top of the line EVERYTHING - service, merchandise, pricing, flexibility. You name it, they’ve got it. I have purchased every prom dress and now, my wedding dress, from this shop and not once have I been disappointed. They are incredible and they truly care about the happiness and comfort of each customer. Highly recommend!!

    There is absolutely no other place when it comes to formal wear! Their gowns are stunning, prices are incredible, and their service is above top notch. I absolutely love Formalities and their employees! I can't tell you how special they make you feel each and every time we visit! We've purchased both prom and bridal gowns and there is just no comparison!!!

    Three amazing ladies quite literally held up my dress to help me be sure it was my dream dress. They made my whole family and I feel welcome and allowed us all to be a part of the experience unlike some stores.

    Tracina was so great when I came into to try on wedding dresses. She actually picked out the one I ended up choosing! She was extremely helpful in answering questions and trying to understand my wedding vision. Her staff has also always been nothing but friendly, helpful, and definitely eased the stress of wedding dress shopping and alterations. My best friend also bought her dress and bridesmaid gowns from Formalites after seeing how great they were through my wedding process. Absolutely recommend!

    The team at Formalities accommodated all 8 people that I brought along with me for my initial dress appointment. Once I picked a dress Tracina took the measurements herself for my custom-hem dress, which turned out perfectly. Even though my wedding was in the middle of their busy prom season they had no problem accommodating myself and several of my bridesmaids who needed alterations. Tracina and her team come highly recommended!

    I bought my wedding dress here 14 months before my big day. Choosing my dress was one of my favorite parts of the whole experience simply because of the phenomenal service that we were given when we were at Formalities. Since then, we have recommended Formalities to everyone we can. For your wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses, and even prom/homecoming dresses, I would definitely check them out. They went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best experience possible!

    I’m very indecisive, so I went to many shops/tried many dresses. After my first visit at formalities, I told my mom i just want to order from them no matter what because of the people! Luckily, my dream dress did happen to come from here, and I’m so happy it did! While usually being self conscious, they made me feel like a rockstar and I got a dress I never thought I would..and it turned out to be absolutely stunning and perfect! Not only my dress, but my bridesmaids jewelry (all 10 of them).. I ordered and paid for them, and then after the fact the company came back and said they stopped making them. My heart was set on these pieces, and nothing was matching up. But Tricina went above and beyond and found me the perfect replacement, which I ended up loving even more! The experience and staff go above and beyond every time you’re there! I wish I had a formal event coming up just so I can go back for another dress! The best experience, the nicest people, the best shop!

    Tracina & her staff did a wonderful job, from picking my gown to my accessories, outfitting my bridesmaids & all the men in the wedding party! They do a lovely job, I'd recommend them to anyone!

    Tracina and her team were a dream to work with. They were all so friendly and went out of the way to make sure my bridal shopping experience was wonderful. They used their knowledge to find what I needed but took my concerns into consideration. Every time I was there they were all so friendly and they all knew the inventory and what they were doing. I would recommend them to anyone.

    I LOVED my experience at Formalities! I used them for my prom dresses and my then boyfriend now fiancé's tux. They are incredibly kind and work with your budget. When I had my appointment for my wedding gown I had so much fun, we joked, cried and she found everything I wanted and then some! They have discounts after you purchase your gown for assessories and wedding party attire. I will always reccomend this shop!

    HIGHLY recommend Formalities. Also highly recommend their 2 hour VIP appointments. My sisters, mom, grandmother and I had the shop to ourselves along with 2 great consultants (and maybe a few more, thanks for sticking around Tracina, Greg, Kristen and Corinna!) I found a dress that was perfect for my October 2015 wedding at a great price. To top it off, we also ordered our gorgeous bridesmaids dresses here too! Very accommodating with my bridesmaids that were spread around the U.S. When I needed to match a color or ask a question about timelines, I knew I could pop right in and anyone could help me ease my worries. Thanks again Tracina, Kristen and Crew for an amazing bridal experience :)

    Formalities was a wonderful experience! I watched several episodes of "Say Yes to the Dress" before my appointment, and Formalities was like a mini Kleinfeld's. My consultant was very helpful and helped me pick out my veil as well after I chose my dress. I brought in a couple pictures of dresses I knew they had and she picked those dresses out for me, in addition to letting me peruse their dresses and choose a couple more to try on. My dress was the second out of about seven dresses I tried on, and it is gorgeous! I came during their 50% off sale, so the dress was a very great deal!

    Tracina is just wonderful. She suggested a dress for my bridesmaids that exceeded my expectations regarding the elegance and the color. The dresses were teal with a black lace overlay top. Just gorgeous. Tracina is so friendly and great to work with!!!
