Absolutely exquisite! Beautiful, stylish and chic clothing for every occasion. Ethel and her staff are professionals who excel in matching the clothes to the lady and occasion. This was my first shopping adventure at " The Encounter " -- just a first of many to come. Left feeling as though I had made some amazing new friends. I highly recommend Ethel and her staff to anyone seeking an awesome shopping experience! You could never visit without finding something unique and just for you. Happy shopping!

Took my daughter there for a fitting after her mom and her bought a couple dresses there. Ladies were nice..... Not a place for dads to hang out!

DO NOT RECOMMEND! Prom dress shopping so I went here. . .Very claustrophobic and cluttered. It looked like an unorganized indoor yard sale. I went in and was followed by a chatty lady. The experience was not enjoyable. Dresses are crammed on racks and it felt thrown together. Not a pleasant shopping trip. Bad customer service. Will not be back.

I began my journey at The Encounter this past November, and I can't express enough how wonderful this experience has been. From the moment I walked in, I was embraced by the warmth and positivity that Ethel, Teresa, Reene, Shelby, and Dee radiate.Not only do they offer an exquisite collection of women's clothing and stunning gowns for any occasion , but they have an uncanny ability to make every customer feel beautiful and confident. It's not just about the clothes, it's about the way they empower you to embrace your uniqueness.In a small town where high fashion might seem out of place, The Encounter stands as a beacon of elegance and style. I often find myself transported to a New York City boutique, surrounded by the latest trends and chic designs. Ethel and her team curated a selection that would make any fashionista's heart skip a beat.What truly sets The Encounter apart is the kindness and helpfulness of the entire team. They above and beyond to ensure that your shopping experience is nothing short of exceptional. They take the time to understand your preferences and help you find pieces that not only suit your style but also make you feel like the best version of yourself.The Encounter isn't just a store; it's a haven for those who appreciate the artistry of fashion. It's a place where you're not just a customer, but a valued member of their fashion-forward family. If you're looking for a place that combines high fashion with genuine care and positivity, look no further than The Encounter.

This place is absolutely amazing! The staff went above and beyond for my sister and helped her find the perfect wedding dress! From the moment we walked in the door until we left they were absolutely fabulous! I would recommend them to anyone! They can make or do anything that you need! We had gave up hope of finding one and just happen to look up and this shop popped up on Google! They are true miracle workers! Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts! This was our 1st time here and they definitely did not disappoint! You will definitely be where we come for any event from now on!

spend a lot of money, just for the dress to be super tight and not like it was in store.

This place is amazing!!!! I took my daughter in for a prom dress. They met us at the door and stayed with us the entire time, helping us choose the right dress for her. They were so helpful and patient as she tried on several dresses. I don't think you'll get better service anywhere else. We were very pleased with our first time experience at The Encounter. This will be our go to for all other special events. We thank you all so much!

The only thing I encountered was a miss! The only reason I’m giving 1 star is because you can’t give less. The ladies is this establishment are rude, disrespectful, and plan out unprofessional. They told me that I couldn’t take any pictures of the dresses on my daughter because they are private… So I decided I would just take some pictures of this mega hoard! Literally they have stuff everywhere’s and even have medication laying out. I tried to talk to the owner about some concerns I was having with a dress my daughter was trying on. She was less than helpful all I’m saying if you’re buying a $500 dress do you want someone to be nice.. How this place has stayed in business since the 70s. Is beyond me… please get your act together ladies!

Very nice dress shop and very helpful. Thank you Teresa for helping my daughter looking at prom dresses. We didn't find what she was looking for but I would highly recommend this business. They have beautiful dresses and accessories to choose from. Reasonable prices. Very friendly and helpful staff!

We visited to look for prom dresses and did not find what we were looking. The store seemed more like a consignment shop, but definitely not consignment prices.

These ladies made my girls feel like they were the only ones in the shop! Thank you for taking the lead and helping out a father who was in over his head.
