“I can’t even begin to explain how incredible the owner at The Bride's Closet is.I work with Chinook Business Advisory, and a colleague and I travelled up to Nanaimo for the Business Excellence awards. It was a black tie event and I had ordered gala gown from Lulus. As soon as I got up to Nanaimo, we stopped at the mall to quickly change before hitting the conference centre. I barely even touched the zipper on my dress and it popped off, rendering me dressless. I was mortified! I was going up to a black tie event for work and I was in mom jeans and flip flops.I called 3 bridal shops, all of which were closed. When I called The Bride's Closet, she said she had just left. I begged her to turn around and see if she could fix my zipper, and the kind soul she is, she did.When I busted in the door and begged for her help (in her absolutely beautiful shop located in a victorian heritage house) she took a look at it. Moments later, she says “why don’t I loan you a dress instead” because she determined she wouldn’t be able to fix it in time for the event that I was already 20 minutes late for.The first dress she grabbed was a stunning red dress that fit perfectly. She cut the tags off and told me to take it. I nearly broke into tears at the sheer kindness of her, and I'm kicking myself desperately for not getting her name. I am making a note to call her as soon as they open.Not only did she hand me a stunning dress to wear, she didn’t charge me a dime. When I asked her how to get the dress back to her, she told to KEEP IT. (I will be mailing it back or finding a way to repay her, don't worry!!)Its people like this that change the world every day with their overwhelming kindness. I talked about her and The Bride’s Closet all night, and it sure was a story to tell. I’d also like to add that everyone I spoke to was OBSESSED with the stunning dress I was wearing. It was incredibly beautiful, and such high quality! I felt like the star of the show.Please, if you’re considering visiting this stunning little shop, purchasing a dress, getting tailoring, or just want to support it in any way, DO IT!!!!! Support this incredible woman with the most stunning bridal boutique in Nanaimo BC. <3 <3 <3”

“New Balance takes the time to fully assess your feet & then to select the right type of shoe that matches your feet. I value that service and am grateful that they care. There was a mix-up with my receipt in that they gave me someone else’s, but a quick phone call and an email rectified that. Great store that I will use for years to come.”

“I had a wonderful experience at Damsels. I went in on a Saturday. Margaret, a sales attendant was amazing. Thank you. She was attentive and kind. I was struggling to decide and was offered a service (on approval). I could take the dress home with a credit card imprint(not a charge) to get approval. This was wonderful. I love the dress, thank you.”

“Friendly and helpful staff. Item selection seemed more suitable to a younger generation. (I'm 47) I thought I would rate it 5 because of the pleasant staff member.”

“Very cute clothing and shoes from brands you can't find elsewhere. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful - all of them greeted me and asked how I was doing while I looked around. Huge thanks to Penny, who assisted me for over an hour while I looked for a pair of sandals (and found me a tank top and pair of pants too!). Decent prices for the quality. The online stock is not up to date so call or visit the store in-person to find what's available.”

“There are no clothes for girls aged 11 and 12 at all. Many times I came with my daughter and left without shopping, since there were no jackets, trousers, or tracksuits for her age. I hope the situation with children's clothing will change for the better. And if you have children from 3 months to approximately 9 years old, there are a lot of beautiful and varied clothes for every taste.”

“Shopped for my 12 year daughter. Great deals! Some really cute shorts and tops. I was scared to get anything for myself because you can't try anything on. Everything looks extremely small. Great for my almost teen.”

“Really good, manager is very understanding. I put a certain steel toe rubber boots for hold and drove down from Chemainus but when got there they had a different pair for hold, didn't even had my size in desired pair so manager gave me a good discount on another pair.”

“Decent store, staff are good. However, clothing can be hit or miss. I bought a pair of ripped jeans on sale for $25 three years ago and they're perfectly intact to this day. Not long ago I purchased a pair of baggy sweatpants and they developed a hole quite quickly, which I had to sew back together. Odd as I had bought a similar pair of sweatpants over a year ago and there's been no holes. It mostly depends on the material. Love the camo leggings I own though, and excited to wear the mom shorts I had just purchased. Sizing can run small and sometimes they're out of my size (mostly L). Besides that, the clothing here is better quality than some of the other teenage era clothing stores in the mall and the denim is worth the price. It's good to take advantage of the sales when they're on.”
