Kleinfeld Bridal

Working at Kleinfeld Bridal ridal was a great learning experience. Although you spend your whole day at work working from 9am to 7pm and to do it again the next day is very draining.The work at Kleinfeld especially in Financial Services is very demanding. You are dealing with hundreds to thousands of dollars each day from brides so it demands a lot of carefulness, patience, and hard work. Working here there is no place for mistakes yet they will happen but you must learn from them and give your best 150% always.

You are dealing with demanding clients, sometimes very nice and its a pleasure working with most and of course you will find yourself in tough situations.

The employees in Kleinfeld help each other out, you do have your ups and downs but in the end everyone is a team. It is long hours and very long. Sometimes you are there from 9-7 or longer depending on the day. It is not a regular job working here, a retail background does lay the groundwork for this job but it is demanding yet in the end rewarding. 

Management can be tough but they are here to work and push you to do your best, sometimes it is difficult to realize that but they do want you to do your best always and will stick up for you in tough situations.

Working here has pushed me to do my best in very tough situation but I have grown so much from it and have met so many amazing coworkers and clients throughout my time.

no day was a typical day that's what was great about it.  there was the normal paperwork but every day was fun and exciting you didn't know what problem would arise...from a change that a bride would make to her gown to gowns being late to a bride that didn't like her gown when it came in.  During all of that training one of the most prestigious companies employees was fulfilling.  

I learned to work with the biggest of the biggest at hudsons bay and learned that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

management was great...being a part of the team and giving input was exciting to know that they care about what we think

co workers were just as enthusiastic to work as a team

the hardest part of the job was travelling

travelling was also the most enjoyable working with such a great team in canada

My manager isn't there anymore thankfully. She was petty and had her pets. She gave them the best appointments. Although I was a top seller, I was never a favorite because my focus was on the client and making sales.  Computer system is from 1970. They don't believe they should pay to get a more efficient system. No Flexibility in hours. At all. The ladder seemed to take forever to climb. If you are focused and stay driven, you can make really good money. The job and fashion have to be your whole life. I did spend a lot of my money at the store because after a few months I wanted to be shiny too. The owners were very sweet but never remembered my name. Finding the dress if it was requested was incredibly time consuming. I also needed extra skin care. My skin hated working there. Working hand in hand with the designers was an amazing experience! That and making brides feel beautiful was my absolute favorite part.

Kleinfeld's offers a fun atmosphere with people that care about their jobs and work hard to make their customers happy. Being an Intern there has given me hands on experience in the bridal field and has taught me customer service skills as well as stock management. Selling a high price item such as a wedding dress requires a certain kind of charisma that I was able to witness first hand while working in the rooms with the consultants and on the main bridal floor. Each consultant has a different way of working and rotating through each of them has taught me how to be a team player while still playing in an important role in the sale.

This job causes extreme burnout. I remember hearing from other stylists that they would cry in their rooms from having a hard selling day & that was NORMAL. Not normal to me. It’s not as magical as the show portrays it to be. It wasn’t completely terrible but it was not my favorite experience. I didn’t enjoy the work culture, the management is garbage & so many people were quitting when I started. Don’t get me wrong, you can make a lot of money here but it’ll cost you your free time & sanity. You will be pushed to your limits & even work through your lunch. There is a lot of favoritism so keep that in mind. Good luck.

A typical day in the Bridal world is unlike any other. There are multiple emotions that occur within minutes of once another between the client, vendors, your team, and you, all of which are challenging yet rewarding. Being able to experience these ups and downs and deliver the utmost positive attitude, is not a task everyone is able to handle and experience. Having the most supportive and driven team all aiming to make a bride's day perfect is more than rewarding.

•	Assisted in the setup, merchandising and sales of the Kleinfeld Sample Studio pop-up store 
•	Assisted bridal consultants during customer appointments for the trial and purchase of bridal gowns and accessories

Working here was a horrible experience.. they don't train you properly and if you're new, they treat you like dirt. They don't care about you or your mental health so if you're gonna have an anxiety attack at work, make sure you have your meds because you're not getting your lunch break or time to eat. The pay was not WORTH IT at all. And the managers are AWFUL. 

A typical day at work was always fun and full of excitement. I have never experienced a place like this before my internship. I can honestly say it is the best internship I have ever had and I will never forget it. The best part was the sales and management team. I enjoyed helping brides pick out their dress for that special day.
