Macy's is a popular American department store chain based out of New York City. They are comprised of three retail brands including Macy's, Bluemercury, and Bloomingdale's. Their company was founded in 1858 and often ranks as the largest US department store company by retail sales. Outside of online and in-store stopping, they are known for the huge Thanksgiving Day Parade they put on each year. Macy's sells everything from beauty products to home decor to clothing, with the exception of formal wedding dresses.

Semi-formal white dresses

There are 50 dresses in Macy's "White Bride To Be Wedding" category. Most of them would be described as semi-formal and are knee-length. There are a few that could be used as a simple looking wedding dress, but for the most part, this isn't what Macy's is trying for. They don't advertise themselves as a wedding dress retailer or make any big promises about their selection, so we can't be too disappointed. However, some people prefer less formal-looking wedding dresses - and for those brides-to-be, Macy's might get the job done.

Sizes vary by dress style

The white dresses at Macy's range from $57 to $498: no outrageous costs on any of them. Since the styles range quite a bit, you could use Macy's filter features and decide the dress length, color, price range, sleeve length, and style you like best to narrow down your choices. Since all of the dresses come from different designers, the sizes will vary. One dress might come in a 0-16 and another might come in 2-14. You can select the "Which size fits me?" button if it's available on the dress you're viewing and provide your height, weight, age, brand of a best-fitting dress and the size you wear, and your bra size to get a recommended size.

Honest customer reviews

One of the most useful things about shopping at Macy's is the ability for customers to leave reviews about different products to help future buyers. Not all white dresses have customer reviews, but most do. The perk of shopping at a big retailer like Macy's is that you're more likely to find a lot of product reviews on items since so many people buy from them. You can read people's descriptions of the dress and if they felt like it ran too short or long, too small or large.

90-day return policy

Macy's return policy is probably more generous than almost any other place you might shop online for a wedding dress. They will allow you to send your dress back within 90 days of purchase for any reason. You can either return it by mail or bring it to one of their 726 brick-and-mortar stores for a full refund or to do an exchange.

Convenient pickup or delivery

In addition to returning your unwanted items to a Macy's location, you can pick up your online order at one as well. You can opt for curbside pickup and not even have to get out of your car! Your other option is to walk into the designated pickup area in the store and show them your confirmation barcode to pick up your items. Both of these options are completely free! If you'd rather have your items delivered to your house, they'll also do that free of charge if you spend at least $25.

Macy's is great, but not for wedding dresses

Macy's has an "A+" rating from the Better Business Bureau, and a long history of customer satisfaction that has made them into the retail giant they are today. Macy's is a fantastic place to shop online for home decor, furniture, jewelry, clothing, shoes, accessories, and pretty much anything else they carry. However, wedding dresses are clearly not their specialty. If you want a retailer with a big selection of stunning, fancy, princess-like gowns, you'll need to look somewhere else.
