Carolyn's came to my room at the Disney's Grand Floridian and did a wonderful job! It was very convenient and she did a beautiful job!

After going to a couple of pushy, impersonal tux rental places...we really felt comfortable at Carolyn Allen. Keith and Sue really care about your wedding, get to know you and make you feel like family. I loved that they delievered and picked up the tuxs from our hotel. We had many out of town groomsmen who didn't get a chance to try on the tux before hand. Sue came to the hotel the morning of the wedding to fix sizing or exchange for a better size. Sue also altered my wedding dress. We had 3 fittings and it was just the perfect fit. They also steamed and delivered my dress to my hotel room in perfect condition. Thank you for dressing me, hubby and our wedding party!!

Carolyn Allen came to my hotel room twice to steam my dress for different occasions. Absolutely perfect. I cannot say enough about their service. Professional and efficient. Highly recommended.

I had two dresses altered at Carolyn Allen. Sue was absolutely wonderful to work with. She did a great job on my dress and the bustle held my long train the entire day. Everyone was so friendly and I enjoyed my fittings:) My dresses were steamed and packed for my cruise ship wedding and they looked spectacular on my wedding day! Thank you!

Setting up my steaming appointment with Carolyn Allen’s was easy and straightforward. I had to change the time of the steaming a couple of times and they had no problem with the changes. They came to our hotel room and steamed my dress, my mom’s, mother-in-law’s and maid of honor’s. They had both the steamer and an iron, which we needed. They worked quickly, carefully and quietly. I ended up feeling comfortable enough to leave my dress at bell services for them to pick up, clean, and ship back to me. It arrived exactly a month after the wedding (they informed me of the timeframe). They were very pleasant to work with!

Never rent a tux from them. If the wedding gets canceled and you want a refund it is a no go for getting your money back. Considering the large number of people who travel to Orlando for a wedding from out of town there should be a full refund policy on rental items with enough notice. Instead I am told that I can only receive half of my money back because they processed paperwork. I have never worn the tux, tried it on or have been fitted for anything. It is a nice racket where people who already are in a crappy place get screwed some more.

We had a destination wedding and used Carolyn Allen's for tuxedos and to store and steam my dress along with the dresses of my bridesmaids. The quality of service we received was incredible and I could not be more pleased. The tuxedo rental was flawless and they were even willing to make a few trips back and forth when things didn't fit just right. On the day of my wedding two people came to my small hotel room to steam 8 dresses and despite all the chaos in the room they managed to stay out of the way and get everything done. All with a pleasant attitude and kind words.

Sue, Walter, Kat, and Stephanie are the best! They are so helpful, and they made us feel like part of the family! ^_^ They have the most beautiful and current styles, and Sue made any needed alterations so that all of the dresses fir perfectly. The chocolate brown tux that my groom selected for himself and his groomsmen was gorgeous, and even a last minute size exchange was handled gladly and quickly. They also have an amazing selection of shoes, veils, headpieces, as well as cleaning and preservation. You won't find value and service like this anywhere else!

The family team at Carolyn Allen's was great! They were very attentive, helpful, and on more than one instance they stayed after closing time.They have some awesome deals during their sample sales. I got a beautiful gown for a steal! Great idea for brides on a budget like me.

What a great staff!! You can absolutely count on these folks to make your wedding day less stressful, because your dress and tux will be perfect. They even arrive early and are happy to see you. I would use them again and would recommend them to everyone!

This is a wonderful family establishment. When I walked in I immediately felt welcome. I was on a tight budget for my gown and there were lots of dresses to choose from in any budget range. I found the perfect gown for my special day. My dress fit me perfectly (because of Sue's great alterations). I will be definitely going again for any future alterations or just to stop in and say hello.

Even though our wedding was on short notice, the staff at Carolyn Allen's was exceptionally attentive and was able to fulfill all of our bridal party needs. It was so easy to ship down my wedding gown and my flower girl dress, and the cost to do so was not as bad as I had initially anticipated (roughly $30.00). The day before our wedding, we were able to meet with the staff and obtain measurements for my wedding party. It took no time at all and the staff was able to crack jokes with us and were just down to earth and very funny. I would strongly recommend using this facility for any occassions, whether it be a wedding or other formal event. I also was able to ship all of my items back home for the same amount of money and it was extremely easy to make these arraignments.

After having visited several other bridal stores I started thinking I would just have to settle. However, when I walked into Carolyn Allen's (which I unknowingly passed every day going to the supermarket) it was COMPLETELY different. I chose a couple different styles to try-on and after Sue saw what I was going for she also chose a couple. She is in EXPERT in her field and I can honestly say that the 4 gowns she picked for me were my 4 favorite. I couldn't narrow them down any farther. It was exquisite service, very personal, and I would recommend any bride & groom!! If there was a rating higher than 5, I would have chose that!! Thanks again!!!

I would HIGHLY recommend Carolyn Allen's Bridal! My wedding was planned quickly and they were great to work with. For starters, I came into the shop right as it was closing and one of the ladies stayed there with me past close and continued to suggest dresses for me to try on. In addition, the seamstress had to shorten my dress in a short-time period and took such great care and pride in her work that it was flawless! She had to shorten the length and to do so she had to remove all the decals from the bottom. Instead of getting rid of them she carefully placed them back on the dress! She was amazing! I couldn't have asked for anything better! I got SO many compliments on my dress!
