Listen to this blog as a podcast:
How do you communicate with your bridal and tuxedo store? Technology today permits many methods of communicating and Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo is proud to explain many ways you can get quick and easy answers for your wedding attire needs.
Getting the answers you need quickly is very important when planning a wedding. Planning a wedding is time intensive and managing your time is very important to ensure you get done everything you need for the big day. In addition, your wedding party often relies on being able to efficiently and effectively communicate with your selected formal wear store.
You may have bridesmaids, groomsmen and guests all over the country and many of them may require answers on their tuxedo rental, bridesmaid dresses, and mother of the bride and groom dresses. And of course, let’s not forget the bride’s needs. Wedding dresses can cause brides to have some questions from suggestions for styles, alterations and accessories recommendation.
We think it’s important to go over several methods that may be of use to you, your fiancé and guests when communicating with the formal wear provider. It’s important to know you made the right choice of local business that will provide proper support for your wedding day. After all, business hours are not always the most convenient window of time for your bridal party to communicate with the bridal store.
We suggest searching out wedding vendors, not just your bridal and tuxedo store, that offer several methods of communications. A store telephone number is very useful, when the business answers the phone or returns messages. Be on the lookout for businesses that communicate via text messages, offer live chat features from their website and go the extra mile.
Whether you are having a black tie wedding or requiring a casual dress code for your wedding guests, it’s important to ensure there is an easy method for each person to contact your bridal and tuxedo store.
Below is a description of ways that you can communicate with Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo when the need arises. Many of these methods of communication may be available from other bridal and tuxedo stores throughout the United States. We certainly hope they are since our customers tell us how they love the ability to receive an immediate response from us!

This is by far our most popular communication method with our customers. The convenience and immediate responses of communicating by text are the obvious reasons why this is our best customer service feature! Brides and grooms always tell us they love the service because of how easy it is to use. We couldn’t agree more.
Some ask simple questions, others request bridal or tuxedo appointments and many inquire about tuxedo rentals. Either way, you’ll get the answer you need quickly.

Apple Business Connection and Apple Maps:
As of late last year, Apple has been rolling out an advanced Apple Maps listing for companies called Apple Business Connect. While business Apple Maps listings have been a thing for about 10 years, the company is substantially increasing the features with showcases, photos, detailed company information and a chat feature. If you have a MAC, iPhone or iPad, you will soon be able to start an iMessage chat with any company who has the feature on Apple’s Map listing. For now, the feature is only available to national and international brands and we are hopeful that Apple rolls out the feature to family businesses like ours! Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo is hoping this feature will soon be available to small businesses like us.
We have tested this chat feature before and it is quite amazing. The chat is automatically directed to your iMessage app and works just like iMessaging. We are excited to be able to add this offering in the near future to provide yet another convenient and instantaneous way of communicating with our customers.

I guess you’re never fully on vacation when you own a small business!
