Liza Ray helped me find the perfect wedding dress. I was able to access some pieces from their collection on their website and when I came into the unit, I was greeted by Gene, who...
made the whole experience wonderful. My family were able to sit on the couches provided and she let me scan the racks for any dresses I wanted to try on within my budget range. I never felt pressured or pulled to choose a dress outside my budget. They have a beautiful selection of dresses from their sample sale and rentals. I went around sunset hour and I was able to get a chance to see the dress sparkle through the window lighting as well. Gene was so patient and gentle and made this experience unforgettable. I highly recommend checking this place out if you're looking for a wedding dress!
If I could leave a zero star I really would. I have had the most horrendous, unprofessional experience with this establishment, that to me is indicative of incredibly poor business...
planning, customer service and scale ability of an institution that is supposed to be associated with what is the best day of your life. I made an appointment for 10:20 am today about a week ago. I cleared my day of important meetings and work so that I could enjoy a day of dress shopping. I also had my mother who lives in another state clear her calendar so I could FaceTime her in during the appointment. I received an email confirming the appointment and received a phone call confirming the appointment, all with notes that indicated how should I need to cancel, I be courteous and give them at least 12 hours of notice. This morning, I woke up appropriately so that I would be on time, ordered an expensive Uber to get me there, and even with that, saw I was running but a few minutes late and called the business number (which I should add is listed incorrectly on Google and necessitated me looking through emails to find the correct one) to call and let them know and a woman answers who said that’s totally fine and noted that I would be working with a different stylist. Ok. I then make my way to the store, and am knocking for 5 minutes, to then call them back, and hear that apparently, they actually had a full mixup with their schedule and there are no stylists or any staff at the store who can a) open the door and b) do my appointment today. So to be clear: I had gotten confirmation, called them this morning, and in none of those interactions did they even think to check their schedules and actually ensure that my appointment would be met. When I asked what I should do now given I’m sitting in front of a closed business, I was told that they were “sorry for this inconvenience, and if I could just come back another day”. Now I know that for many, wedding dress shopping is an experience you plan, you make accommodations in your day, some even travel from all over to make an appointment. For that to be disregarded and for no solution to he offered as to how I can even keep tus appointment today at all, is actually incredibly disrespectful and inconsiderate. When I pressed to se if anyone, anyone, at all could make their way to the shop I was told it would be pretty difficult and inconvenient for the shop owner or the stylist who lives in Brooklyn to make their way. I was considering putting the trust of my wedding dress and consequentially day in the hands of a business that effectively shrugged of an insane mishap on their end with zero accommodations or solutions. If you are a bride who takes her day very seriously, I would very much consider this experience as you move forward and would probably urge you book elsewhere as still the owner has not even reached out to apologize or rectify. Truly truly truly disappointed.
Perfect bridal gown experience! The showroom is personal, and beautiful. Liza Ray has the most unique and beautiful options, nothing like I could find elsewhere. The appointment wa...
s easy to make, and the experience was all around excellent. Go check them out!

ense of style. She had a variety of stunning collections of the dresses. It was not an easy choice for me. Lisa has such a sweet and helpful personality that makes you feel special during the try on session. Highly recommend Lisa Ray.
Other NYC shops do not offer the same one-on-one experience that Liza Ray NYC does. Not only is Liza incredibly talented in finding the right silhouette for you, Liza takes the ti...
me to get to know you and your personal style. Her laid-back personality makes you comfortable right from the start – it’s like you’re old friends, hanging out in a dream closet (which, by the way, is absolutely beautiful). You’re not jam packed in a room with twenty other brides, and you’re not pressured to purchase a dress on the spot. The shop also offers gowns to purchase as well as gowns to rent!
I showed Liza my Pinterest board for hair and makeup and she understood my aesthetic completely. This was the first time I had my hair and makeup done professionally where I absolutely LOVED it and didn’t want any changes. Book your bridal appointment with Liza Ray NYC to get the most amazing wedding dress shopping (and hair and makeup) experience all in one. Book with Liza to be a princess for a day – you won’t regret it!
Liza Ray NYC studio is a charming place in the middle of Manhattan! Easy to find and get to with many of coffee shops around for those brides who like me needed some pick me up mat...
cha at first. A wedding salon has everything a bride need and I was helped by the founder herself Liza, having the best and easiest experience to find a dress I really wanted! So many choices from fairytale dresses to more modest and classic, boho styles and even suits. I chose my dress to rent for my city elopement photoshoot that sat so well from the first time as Liza prepared it for me based on my ideas and body type. I didn’t have to stress seeing something not fitting like I’ve had my experience in another salon I went to before. Liza also chose right pair of earring for me and I also hired her and my MUAH artists and was so happy I did. My pictures turned out beautiful and we used it as our wedding announcement! I would love to come back for more experience with Liza maybe when I need a wedding guest dress, she also have many options of those to rent. Thank you. Guys for your business
I was looking for my wedding dress and visited multiple wedding stores in NY but nothing was good enough. Then I stumbled on Liza Ray New York Instagram account. All of the dresses...
seemed so stylish and beautiful I decided to make an appointment right away. First of all I felt so welcomed and Liza was asking everything about the look I have imagined. I described what I wanted and she pulled out some beautiful options. Then I also was offered to look through the selection and pick some options myself. I tried about 10 different dresses, but one was so special I finally felt like I was so close to my vision! Of course I ended up purchasing this dress! Liza also connected me with a tailor and provided a list of photographers and makeup/hair stylists in NY, which was very helpful! My experience was so amazing, I couldn’t even imagine that wedding shopping could be so easy and Liza made me feel so special! Highly recommend this place to every bride who is looking for gorgeous dress and wonderful personal approach!
A mutual friend had her hair and makeup and bridal dress rental with Liza Ray and highly recommended her salon to me.
It was a casual day having some coffee with a new friend and...
she happen to show me her wedding photos. I was shocked how beautiful her makeup and hair looked. So rare for bridal makeup to look so so special. I’m not talking about a lot of makeup. It’s just something that looks natural and so so special. I am use to seeing my friend bridal makeup look “natural” aka boring. But when I saw her makeup look I just was blown away!
I hesitated to call the salon cause I thought someone so talented would be out of our budget or just too busy to care about my business. But after many weeks of following her on Instagram I decided to reach out and inquire about pricing.
Liza herself took my inquiry and to my surprise she is oh so sweet and helpful. She really is very knowledgeable about wedding looks. She is not pushy at all. I felt like my needs and idea was truly heard and understood.
We immediately setup an appointment for trial and the rest is history. I’m so glad we found her. And her pricing is very reasonable for the amount of service and glam you will receive!! I’m super excited for my wedding day. I just wish I would do my makeup like that everyday.
For reference I’m Asian. She understands all face shapes and skin tones. I have crazy curly hair and she knows how to work with it.
