Here's What It's Really Like to Shop For a Wedding Dress at Kleinfeld

I was lucky enough to work with Antonella, who is so kind and very funny (it's no wonder she's featured on Say Yes to the Dress so often). You are allowed to request a bridal consultant upon arrival if you're familiar with the Kleinfeld crew, but if you do not request, you'll be paired up randomly.
Antonella shared her personal story with me, which was pretty cool. She scored an interview for a consultant position and has been working at Kleinfeld for 13 years. But she has a history in styling and is clearly talented at her job. It definitely helps to get your start in the fashion industry, whether it's in styling or merchandising. Each consultant takes an intern under her wing for the day, who learns how to help style, fit the dresses to the bride's body by cinching with clips, and search for dresses quickly when a consultant requests one. These people know the Kleinfeld brands like the back of their hands — and they're well-versed in the store's stock!
