About Us and Testimonials

Formal Affairs and Weddings was a brainstorm when planning my youngest daughter's wedding. While thoroughly enjoying the planning, shopping, and execution of the "big day", I found myself surprised, disappointed and somewhat frustrated by outrageous prices and the unprofessional attitudes of many bridal personnel. I had been in the accounting industry most of my adult life, but had always dreamed of having my own business where I could treat people as I wanted to be treated. With a 25+ year history in fashion and design, Formal Affairs and Weddings was the perfect solution. Originally we offered custom gowns and alterations with a few accessories. Over the course of nine years in business, we have added more items to our ever growing inventory and a wider variety of suppliers. Our suppliers are chosen carefully to ensure value, quality and timeliness. With our extremely low overhead I am able to offer gowns, accessories and services at considerable savings to you. Advice, suggestions and amusing incidents are provided at no additional cost :).

Hello Linda,

I wanted to give you a pic of Morgan in her dress that you did for her. She looked beautiful! Thanks also for your support in the program.

Morgan took home a trophy for 2nd runner up in the beauty category for her age group. She was competing against 15 girls which was the largest age group. So for our first try it was a great experience!

I think Morgan may continue on with pageants, so don't be surprised if you hear from us again!

Thanks again and take care!

Kym

Hi Linda!

I wanted to say thank you for all the maternity alterations you performed on my formal dress. I received so many compliments - many of my friends thought it was originally a maternity gown! =) Anyways, I've decided for the time being to leave it the dress as is.....may need it again in the near future! Rest assured, I'll definitely be in to see you if I ever need alterations done again. =)Just wanted to share a pic of me and my hubby at the "Red Lion Field Artillery Ball." Thanks again for all your help!!!~Darla =)

Here's the girls in the wraps you made. Absolutely beautiful!! The picture
doesn't do them justice at all.

this is just a shot of the back of my dress. You can see some of the bead
work you did. If you ever need recommendations please don't hesitate to
contact me.

The wedding was great and you made me and all the girls beautiful.

Hi Linda,

You requested some pictures from me when I dropped my dress off to you for preservation. Sorry it took me so long. I’ve attached a few pictures of me in my dress. I have 800 pictures…from family, to friends, to bridesmaids and groomsmen. If you need anything else, just let me know. You did a great job!

Thank you for everything!!
