Mary Me Bridal

g from them very kindly. https://ochre.pk/collections/full-suits

e worst experience of my life! Getting married is supposed to be one of the most exciting times of your life, and finding your wedding dress just as exciting. I first went to Mary Me Bridal and tried on only 3 dresses and found one I absolutely loved. I ordered my dress ONE YEAR prior to my wedding. The store confirmed that the designer can make my dress in a lighter ivory color. Fast forward to 6 months later, my dress arrived IN THE WRONG COLOR due to a miscommunication between Mary Me Bridal and the designer Calla Blanche. They assured me they would re-order a new dress is the correct color and would try to rush it due to the first mistake. Fast forward to 4 months later (now less than 3 months to my wedding) and the second dress arrived COMPLETELY WRONG AGAIN. They did not have any explanation except that the color I requested was discontinued 2 years ago which proves a huge lack in communication once again. What's even worse, is that I had to be the one to continually reach out for an update on my dress. They reassured me that everything was on schedule and would be correct the second time around. They seemed callous and not caring about the MASSIVE MISTAKE. The lady that helped me from day one did not even come back out on the floor after realizing the dress was made incorrectly again. I walked out hysterical, with no wedding dress, no guidance toward any kind of solution, and to top it all off, they needed "APPROVAL" to give us a refund! With less then three months until my wedding, I was left scrambling to find another dress store that could accommodate a last minute request. Remember I started this journey one year before my wedding! Please save yourself the anxiety, stress and heart ache and do not come here!!!! *I WOUND UP GOING TO JACLYNS BRIDAL IN COSTA MESA IMMEDIATELY AFTER LEAVING THIS HORRIBLE PLACE AND THE OWNER MINDY WAS AMAZING! SHE HELPED ME LAST MINUTE FIND A BEAUTIFUL DRESS THAT I WILL HAVE IN TIME FOR MY WEDDING! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND GOING THERE FIRST.

e to see where I was coming from and brought my views to reality while keeping me calm. They ladies were supportive and made me feel beautiful.

s in there are so sweet and make you feel so special on your day. Definitely recommend!

le and price range I was looking for. I ended up buying a sample at my first appointment, and my guests couldn't stop complimenting me. They showed me the most amazing veil, which went perfectly with my dress. My dress originally had cocktail length lining with full-length lace overlay, which I was not interest in, but I loved the fit and the lace was gorgeous. Mary Me offered to extend the lining to be floor length as well, and it was fantastic. I used their in-house alterations for that change as well as taking the dress in, and I was so happy with the result. I highly recommend them.

like I had at another salon, I called to make sure I still had an appointment a couple days before and they told me that they had just been busy and didn’t have time to respond. They asked no questions before about what my price point was or what I was looking for so when I got there my consultant seemed very flustered. She did not pull me anything that was in my price point, everything was at least $700 over and did not seem engaged in our appointment. They seemed to have a wide selection but without the help of a consultant it was hard to find exactly what I was looking for.

up picking 7 dresses right from the get go. Then I saw a dress on a mannequin that was GORGEOUS. I tried it on and my mom and aunt cried when I walked out. It was everything that I was looking for!! I tried on two more dresses after but I couldn’t stop thinking about the gorgeous dress that I had already tried on. I put the dress back on and knew that it was the one! I’m so happy with my decision! And I had the best bridal consultant by the name of Megan. Out of all the bridal shops I went to, she was my favorite consultant. She was so sweet and nice and so so helpful!

ting she pulled as many dresses that fit that description. This way, when I went in with my sisters and mother, we could hit the ground running and not waste our time trying on dresses that I wouldn’t like. As I was walking with Jocelyn to my dressing room she noticed that a particular dress caught my eye. It was a dress I would never normally wear (it was a 2-piece and nothing like the dresses I had her pull) but it was GORGEOUS. She asked if I would ever wear something like that, and I said I didn’t know. Without hesitation she grabbed it and said, “You’re trying it on! I see the way you are looking at it!” Well, that was the dress I ended up purchasing! I fell in love the second it was on (it is true what they say- if it’s “the one” you know it instantly). Had Jocelyn not said anything, I wouldn’t have had the courage to grab it myself and let me tell you- that dress was the talk of my whole wedding. I received compliments CONSTANTLY and I felt gorgeous in it. Jocelyn was so sweet and honest (which I appreciate) and I owe my entire dress experience to her! Thank you so much, Jocelyn! On another note, Susan was exceptional as well. I went in to pick up my dress on a day Jocelyn wasn’t there and I wanted to look at veils and Susan was so helpful in that she helped me narrow down a style I loved. I didn’t buy the veil from Mary Me Bridal because I got a really good deal through my cousin elsewhere, but I would have definitely gone back to purchase from there. Thank you to everyone at Mary Me Bridal!

we were given a somewhat private room where they offered my guests water and champagne while I was trying on a million dresses. The consultant was awesome - super friendly, helpful, personable, and not pushy at all. I would recommend every bride to go to Mary Me Bridal first to look for their dress for that big day!

SOLD! Mary Me Bridal had so many options to choose from and Amanda made sure I stayed within my budget. She was informative and knowledgeable and definitely made dress shopping a wonderful experience!

ress. After being told by my matron of honor not to look anywhere else (I had already been to 5 or so salons), my mom and I came here one night after work. Since it was a Tuesday night, there weren’t many people there, which was a nice difference than salons on weekends. With Sharon’s help, I found my dress. It was beautiful and perfect. I bought my dress in February and it came in mid-Aug for my early September wedding. I was a little nervous about getting the alterations done in time but they assured me they would work with my timing. They did. I came in 1 week or so after it arrived and they did my alterations in 1 week. They also kept the dress there until a few days before the big day. They have in house alterations which is nice. I knocked off one star only because I wasn’t really informed the cost of adding a corset to my dress prior to buying. It ended up being pricey (and totally worth it) but I wish I had a little more advance notice than a few weeks before the wedding when everything is coming due at once.

following week. Making the appointment we thought it would be a good place to start dress shopping. Boy were we wrong. It took one trip and a handful of dresses, and I found my dress. The salon is very cute inside and have a very good selection of dresses. I had a good idea of what I wanted (lace and fitted). We found the dress in just over an hour. I was so relieved. I knew if I tried on too many I would get confused. So I'm glad I found it early. When we went bridesmaids dress shopping we went to a few different places. Then, we came back to Mary Me. And we found the bridesmaids dresses. They do alterations there and they are also amazing. If you buy your dress here don't bother taking it to another place to be altered. I tried my dress on the first time and it needed to be taken in. I came in 6 days before the wedding and I was hoping that it would be my last fitting, but unfortunately it wasn't. I put the dress back on and everything fit, but not in the butt area. I have a badonkadonk! It made it a little hard to sit down (it was a mermaid style dress). This should have been the time that I started to freak out, but they reassured me its not a big deal. I wish I could remember her name (I think she is one of the main alteration ladies). She was so calm, nothing was phasing her and that made me calm. I was so thankful that she kept me calm. She said we'll take the sides back out a little and it will be ready by Thursday (it was Tuesday). We went back Thursday. I put the dress back on and it was perfect. Mary Me has a great bridal selection, bridesmaids selection, great customer service, and great alterations. Definitely, stop in to take a look.

trying on all the different styles. She was also very good at picking out styles that I would like best! The shop was very accommodating to the fact that we lived out of state and made sure that I would get a fitting or two in before the big day. They do alterations in-house and also offer accessories, we purchased my view with them as well. My dress fit like a dream and I felt wonderful the day of our wedding!

ause dress shopping can be tiring and at least you'll have the most energy at the time. Mary Me Bridal has a huge selection of gorgeous gowns and my consultant was excellent in helping me find my perfect gown. It wasn't in the color that I wanted but when she slipped the color from another dress under the lace on my gown it looked perfect and sold me on the dress! Their alterations department is also excellent, but if you have the time I would suggest finding your own seamstress (that knows how to work with wedding dresses). Since I only had about a month before the wedding I used their in-house seamstress and was very pleased. The dress fit perfectly and looked absolutely stunning!

ensive but totally worth it. Everyone there was so happy and helpful - a truly positive experience!!

ry for nearly 30 years. She was fantastic to work with, super helpful, genuine, and kind. When trying on dresses, I felt like I was spending time with an aunt. She took the time to listen to what I wanted and seemed to take a genuine interest in my love story. The seamstress was also wonderful and reasonably priced, too. She made my dress fit beautifully.

able to find anything but i had plenty of dresses to try on. I didn't get my dress at this location but if you want a wide variety i would definitely try this store however the prices are a little high.

tion. The only reason I gave four stars was because they seemed a little high priced on alterations or additions to the dress. Overall, I was very happy with my experience at Mary Me Bridal.

was such a sweetheart! It really is a low pressure boutique and the consultants really just want to help you find THE dress! Once Maria helped me find THE dress the alteration process was pleasant as well. They did a fabulous job and my dress fit beautifully. Thank you Maria and Mary Me Bridal!

imate.

edding process I felt like someone wasn't trying to upsale or upcharge me. Awesome!

ack. I found a beautiful Pronovia dress 50%. A gorgeous gown that made me feel like a bridal. Cost was reasonable, thankfully I did not require alterations, bustle was $100 and dry cleaning another $200. I know of other boutiques being more expensive. Small place but with a lot of variety.

ull and not what I think of when you hear "wedding dress shopping."

at she realized she would receive a large commission, and her attitude completely changed. I came in other times and worked with other fitting specialists that were MUCH nicer and more pleasant to work with. Also the woman in charge of the alterations was very nice and her prices were reasonable.

and was told that no they don't carry dresses under $1,000 (ouch and embarrassing...) She offered to show me some sample dresses in my price range, I figured I was already there so might as well. I ended up falling in love with the perfect dress for me and paid under $500!! Ending up being around $900 total after alterations and steaming. It was in perfect condition and was a perfect mix of exactly what I wanted. Don't be afraid to try sample dresses!! You can still find that beautiful designer gown at a fraction of the cost!! Such great sales people and alterations there made it easy! They even stored my dress for over 9 months!!

have happily paid more for the same dress at this shop (although I didn't). Sue was my consultant and she was fabulous. She took her time and was focused on me.

and it was the 5th dress I tried on. Right when I put it on, I knew it was the one!!! I walked out in the dress and my mom started crying! I knew I had found the right one! My gown did need alterations. I then worked with Edith. She was a miracle worker! She is the best! She had me come in several times to make sure I was happy with my gown! On my wedding day, my dress looked perfect & I felt stunning...just what I wanted! I had my bridesmaids choose their dress from their large collection. I had my girls, pick their own style of dress but it had to be the same color and fabric. The various selection of the dresses looked beautiful on my wedding day! The girls and myself couldn't be happier!

, sew in bra cups, hem the bottom, and create a bustle. Sue created a "sweetheart" neckline for free, but it took a lot to make that happen. When I went for my "FINAL" dress fitting, the sweetheart line had not yet been done (although Sue apologized profusely,) there were buttons that had popped off on the back that had not been fixed, and there was a seem that was supposed to be sewed into place that had not been. I had to go back for yet ANOTHER "final" fitting just days before the wedding. My mom lives in Hawaii and payed for the whole thing which they had to have her fill out an outdated email form for... I guess they haven't heard of paypal?? Otherwise I was pretty happy with the shop in general.

services. I ordered my dress in Sept. and was told would be in around March. When I called to check in, they told me it wouldn't be in until March. Someone wrote the wrong date for the wedding and they couldn't locate my dress. Then, they wrote the wrong date for my fitting even after I confirmed.

s beautiful inside and they have many top designers.. I choose a gown by Maggie Sottero and it was gorgeous.. The staff is great and really helpful, you definitely don't feel pressured to buy anything like in davids bridal! I had a great experience hope you ladies do as well :)

had a huge selection.....

nd it was a bit smaller, but they had a large selection of beautiful dresses. I was surprised at the cost of alterations there, so I would recommend taking your dress elsewhere for alterations. Overall, I loved my dress and the price was very reasonable!

the first dress. They offer coupons at bridal shows. Go and get one for 10% off! It is well worth your time to get 10% off your wedding dress!

r my experience. I’m a plus size gal so their section was limited to a small rack of A-line dress styles. Alterations weren’t as good as I was paying for in my mind. They were cheaper than a big name store that is for sure.

own! It was unique and gorgeous and the prices are decent as well! I will definitely recommend this shop to any of my friends getting married!

or under $1000 which is a great deal! The shop had many beauiful dresses, my only complaint is that the service was not as great as at some other shops I visited. The women who helped us were not exceptionally helpful, and didn't pump up our excitement at finding a dress, rather it felt like they simply were making the sale and wanted to get it over with. But I can't complain too much sinc I found the perfect dress!

the price of the other store, which I was happy about because I liked the sales people better at Mary Me than at the other place. My bridal consultant was Sharron, who was very nice and very experienced. She was very helpful in helping us narrow down what we liked and didn't like about each dress until we got it down to the final two. Once we picked a dress, she was helpful in helping me choose a size (that fit perfectly, the only alteration I needed was a hem) and some accessories (slip, veil). She was very patient when we had to think a lot before making a decision. We returned to Mary Me for bridesmaid dresses and mother of the bride/groom dresses - you get 10% off if you bought your dress there. The sales girls on the bridesmaid side were not as experienced, their answers seemed unreliable, and they weren't very helpful. But we helped ourselves and when it was time to decide on sizes, we called Sharron over to help us decide (everyone's dresses fit fine - they just needed hems). Sharron also helped by making a lot of suggestions on picking a dress for my very pregnant bridesmaid (due 3 weeks after the wedding), who could not wear the same dress but chose one that would coordinate with the other girls. My only complaint about Mary Me is that the sales staff seem to be spread too thin. While they are helping you, they run off to help someone else with something quick, and this happened to us multiple times per visit and on every visit. I think they just need more staff. Overall, the experience was good and all our dresses looked great.

sales. The bridal consultants were helpful and thoughtful. However, with a smaller budget, Mary Me Bridal tended to have selections from the higher end in price. I ended up trying out gowns at Mariposa because they have more selections within my budget.

pop in and look (less so on Saturday of course) but the service is impeccable. One person in particular, Maria. She was fantastic!! The alterations crew isn't so great, in my opinion. I didn't need any alterations for my dress but had an issue (a difference of opinion) with how my bustle would be done. In my opinion the individual was pretty rude about it.

else. I showed them a photo of the dress I wanted, and they had it in the store! They also pulled a few more dresses that were similar in style. I ended up going with one of the other dresses they pulled for me, completely loved it! Also, got a sash to go with it there. Alterations were done in a timely manner, the woman who does the alternations is so nice! Best selection of dresses and great quality and prices.

own. Love it!! They called me as soon as the dress came in to schedule my dress fittings. They have such a great selection of dresses. Would definitely recommend going there to search for a dress.
