Do you have to pay extra for Lori to attend your appointment? And does everyone get the room with the couch like on the show or is that exclusively for people on the show?

My wife and I were on a West to East coast 2 month vacation when we dropped in on Lori's Bridals. We met the girls that are on the show and were given a tour of the building. Monty was not there and we were told he lives in Virginia and only comes in for the filming. The store was amazing with the hundreds of gowns and the mirrored area where everyone gets to show off their gowns to family and friends. Very down to earth folks and extremely friendly even if you're not there to buy a gown.

No you don't have to pay extra for Lori to be there, its her store. The main room with the runway has the couches. All of the brides that try on dresses get to go on the runway in front of all the mirrors. We had an amazing experience when we went.
