This place is amazing. I was called at the last minute to be the best man in my friends wedding. His new wife and I have never seen Eye to Eye. After going into almost every Tux shop in Metro Orlando I decided to give them a shot. I told "J" about my need for a tux that fits by the next day. He told me that it would be hard but it was doable. I half expected to pay a lot extra. After about an hour and a half he came back to me told me that everything was in order. He not only saved me from looking like an even worse friend in Sarah's eyes but made me look good while he was doing it.
Thank's to all of you guys up there at Absolutely Fitting.

When we started searching online for our wedding location in Orlando, we had the best surprise at Grand Bohemian Hotel Orlando’s new vanity website. grandbohemianorlando.wqqsite.com Within seconds we knew the approximate cost of our wedding. Didn’t have to fill out the standard info form, or wait for a call back or e-mail. It’s a beautiful property and definitely made our short list. Wish all venues offered this service.

Good afternoon,
I saw the Orlando Wedding Spring/Summer 2011 Edition, and I love the dress on page 17. Can someone contact me with the wedding designer or name of the dress.

Thank you in advance,

Debbie Gomez

Do not take your dress here. Long's butchered my dress during a routine bustle alteration and refused to repair it. When I returned to the store for my final fitting there was two large palm sized stains on the back bodice of the dress and the pleating on the left back portion of the dress was completely pulled out. My dress looked like it had been worn. Long's insisted that my brand new dress had been bought to them in this condition..they charged me $156 and refused to fix my dress or give me a refund. It was three days before my wedding and I had to find a shop on short notice that could make repairs and clean the dress. It was a horrible experience that I would not wish on anyone. Brides beware!!! Do not take your dress here!!!
