After visiting 5 salons, I found my wedding dress at Party Dress Express! They have a very large selection which I was grateful for as I was zeroing in on exactly what I was looking for in a dress. The staff were very helpful and friendly, and ...
I loved and valued how I was able to look through all of the dresses myself. I didn't feel rushed and took my time trying on several dresses and making the final decision on my dress. Fatima took one look at the dress and found the most absolutely perfect veil within a minute. It was very thrilling to buy a dress off the rack and take it home the same day! It was the perfect experience to conclude my wedding dress search.

ight in my backyard! I am in RI ♥️. The dress section is awesome with beautiful light from these gorgeous mill windows above. So many dresses at various budgets means you can find what you are looking for! The quality was equal to the other places I found. The attendants were sweet and helpful. Had to get my veil on Etsy because I wanted to get something simple and modern. The world shut down the week after I got my dress. They seemed super short staffed and stressed and kept me waiting outside one time for awhile, but kept my dress safe when we had to postpone the wedding. So glad I came here! Would absolutely recommend!

al. I had an amazing experience with Ashley, and for my try-on when the dress arrived, I requested Ashley for the appointment to have some consistency. Again, they changed the person last minute so I did not get to work with Ashley again. When I mentioned that I was disappointed, they did offer me to reschedule the appointment to try to work with Ashley specifically but seemed rather curt in their response when I told them I was disappointed. They have a great selection and I loved my dress I found (and Ashley!) but if you are looking for a personal touch throughout the whole experience, I would look elsewhere.

Hi Caitlin, Thanks for your review. Upon booking the appointments online it does state we reserve the right to switch a requested stylist at any time. This can be due to a stylist requesting a day off, an earlier appointment that may need more...
time, a schedule conflict, etc. This is why we do not book appointments via phone and have everyone book online so they can read all policies and procedures. We are happy you had a great experience in finding your dress and wish you a lifetime of love and happiness. Thank you!

There are not enough positive things to say about Ashley and the whole experience with Party Dress Express! With 8 women in our bridal party we had a collection of various ages(16-45), shapes, and heights, Ashley connected individual with each ...
woman to make them all feel comfortable. As a bride, I felt prioritized, even though didn't go into the first appointment having much for ideas other than I wanted my bridal party to coordinate and all feel comfortable. I was so pleased to be able to select 8 different dress options, including a pant style, that coordinate and look gorgeous on each of the ladies. Ashley was a critical part of styling my bridal party and I have no doubt my wedding be beautiful because of it! I was able to rely that Ashley was politely steering everyone in the right direction when they drifted too far away from my vision at times. In the end everyone is more than happy and I am beyond thankful to have worked with Ashley!

e made me feel beautiful (even in the dresses that were definitely not for me). She was welcoming to the guests I had with me and made me forget that we were wearing masks and living during such a difficult time. She had me try on styles like those I thought I wanted. Pushed me to try out things I never thought I could pull off. Offered suggestions on how to alter or modify certain dresses. And lead me right to MY dress. The store has so many options, there was no way to not find something in my price range and style. I would recommend Jessica and Party Dress Express to anyone who needs a dress for ANY event. I felt like my gown made me look like a million bucks without spending anywhere near the high end of my budget. It was a great day at the perfect store. Thank you Jessica!!!!

They held my dress for as long as I needed and not to mention the prices were SO affordable. They have top brands and all of the consultants are amazing, I loved Jill who helped me in my try-on appointment she was so patient and got me into my dream dress! I will continue to recommend any bride to visit here - they will have exactly what you’re looking for.

ne assigned to us I had to ask the owner for help. she directed us to the dresses and then sent over an someone to help but she was terrible. Nice lady but not able to do her job at all. SHe needs to retire and I'm sorry to say that but its true. She wasn't one to help pick out dresses (we had to find our own) or give any constructive direction. Everything the ladies put on was "OH that s great, you look great, can I write that sale up for you" when the dresses looked terrible and was clearly apparent on their faces. Not much plus size selection either which is why we went there. Also, they gave us dressing room section that was one room short, so the girls had to wait to dry things on even with an advanced appt. The place was about 90 degrees too and had no water to offer us. THis was the most frustrating experience. The wedding dress and prom dress area seemed to operate better. The sad part is the new owner seemed very aloof not concerned about the customer service -how could she allow this to happen . So sad. We went to another store and it was amazing - just what you expect - a salesperson pulling dresses for your body type, asking what you like, really constructive feedback and professional attitude. Offering up swatches, etc. Night and day for sure.

I read some reviews on this place and decided to make the hour trek out here with my mom. I am so glad that I did! When we arrived we were able to pull dresses off the racks to try on. Our consultant also picked out a few based on styles I was interested in. Aside from not being a strapless gown I wasn't sure what I wanted. I tried on 10+ gowns and was able to take my time doing so. I found a beautiful allure lace dress that I fell in love with. The cost of the dress was very reasonable and it included alterations. I later found a lace trim veil and belt to compliment the dress. Once the dress came in I had a few appointments with the alterations department. They were very nice and accommodating. I wasn't sure what kind of bra I could wear with the dress as it had a key hole back, and they were able to sew in cups. I am also very petite and they were able to fix the straps and back very nicely. My experience dealing with everyone at this location over the past nine months has been amazing. I highly recommend this place to all brides to be.

going all over to different racks (total waste of time) finally I just say I am going to look at the gowns and pull out a couple I like . While I was trying on the gowns she made me feel terrible (much unlike other places i've been), acting like the gowns wont zip (when they for sure would), and telling me how my bra isn't the right size etc (I've lost a good amount of weight since I first bought the thing and I wasn't asking for opinion on that). She then rushed me out so they could leave shop right at 5pm. I guess if you're only looking for a cheap gown try here- there are rips , broken zippers, makeup on the gowns, missing belts, etc. and honestly, if 4pm (1 hr appointments) are not enough time that they dont even let you really look at the gowns, then they shouldn't offer that option!

e salespeople, especially Denise, are the perfect balance- they are not pushy with you (which I experienced at other stores) but they do bring in their own suggestions of dresses you may like. The price I paid for my gown includes the alterations so I won't be expecting any big added costs (the only thing they did say was there is a $20 charge to have bra cups sewn in). Overall, so happy with my experience so far and I can't wait to go in for my first fitting.

I got my dress here and it was awesome. Getting past the fact that there's prom gowns everywhere- yoh walk into the bridal section and there are So. Many. Gowns. The girls that work there are all super friendly and informative. I worked with ...
Kelly and she was my person throughout the whole process - including getting all my bridesmaids figured out. They have a designer clearance section- where if they have stopped making the dress the dress goes in that corner- it's 50% off! If you go online they also had a 20% off bridal month. I got a Maggie Sorento dress that was originally $2,400 for $500. To top it off- they had me inspect the whole dress to make sure it was in great condition before I put the deposit down. If you buy a dress in that section - for $200 you can buy an alterations package. So with that I got a bussle added, the dress was brought up to my height, and they took a flower off and added beading and it was all included in that original $250! Because I bought the dress there- they give you "bridal dollars" which can go towards other accessories. My bridesmaids also bought their dresses from there and I got more "bridal dollars". I ended up putting that towards a $150 veil and ended up paying $60 for it. This place has everything for any kind of wedding and I'm so happy I got past the name of it and just went in. So. Awesome.

ss express, they seemed to have an endless sea of dresses! I had plenty of options within my price range. The service was really the selling point. I went about four times before picking "the dress." Each time I went in, I was greeted with a smile, they always remembered me and my mother, and they were genuinely happy to help me find my dress. They made great recommendations that I would not have thought of, and gave honest feedback when asked for their opinions. This is going to sounds cheesy, but they really make you feel like a family member that they are helping to find a dress for. Then came the fittings, and even more pleasant reports. The seamstress was an EXPERT, and so nice and fun. She even shed a tear at the final fitting and gushed about how I would make a beautiful bride. Start to finish, a five star experience!

On my fitting day they treated me like absolute royalty - offering us drinks and all helping out with the fitting. I don't have a single bad thing to say. I had been to every salon, big and small, in and around Boston and this one blew me away! They kept in constant contact with me about my dress and we're always prompt in responding when I emailed about any questions. Taizha went above and beyond.

A friend of mine suggested I go to Party Dress Express for my wedding dress since she had been there in the past for pageant dresses and had great luck. I had looked at a few smaller boutique shops with no luck, and PDE had a huge selection. ...
I liked that we didn't need to make an appointment and we were able to get a dressing room right away. The consultant I worked with was so nice and attentive. I found my dream dress (Maggie Sottero - Bronwyn) and was excited to find out that the cost of alterations is included in the dress price. My dress needed minor alterations and I was so happy with how it came out. I brought my mom here to find her MOB dress and had a slightly different experience. The attendant we had was less helpful but we did find her a beautiful dress. When it came in it had an extra visible seam on the ruching that just didn't look right. When we pointed it out during her alterations they said it was just how the dress was made and there was nothing they could do to hide it. She ended up sewing over it when made it look worse! My mom decided to bring it to a different seamstress who was able to fix it properly and the dress turned out beautiful. I would recommended Party Dress Express if you are OK with the casual atmosphere. For alterations, I would think about taking it elsewhere if you need major alterations. At the end of the day I had a perfect dress and a perfect wedding day.

nd dresses that might look good on my body. I tried everything even if it wasn't the style I knew I wanted. I didn't have to make an appointment and I still had my own consultant to help me with anything I needed. They had so many dresses to choose from and they were all very pretty! It isn't as upscale as maybe alexander's boutique but they still have a ton to choose from. It is like an old factory or warehouse setup to it. There were 2 issues with my experience the first and scariest for a bride was when I ordered my dress because of the style they told me they needed my exact measurements in order to order it hallow to hem which means exact length so the lace detailing wouldn't be messed up during alterations. Well when the dress came in the dress was the measurements I was but because a brand new dress fits differently then a dress tried on by many the dress was up to my ankles. Very scary! The good thing was I was way ahead of schedule on my timeline so they ordered a new dress the length it comes and their seamstress did the alterations along with taking it in some below my hips to give it more of a curve appeal. She did great! And second a BM dress came in with a stain on it but she got that out too! And the third thing was my original tiffany blue color got discontinued after I ordered the BM dresses so i went to turquoise Once my issue with my dress they were always there to help and even gave me the managers email to contact if I needed anything. The only downfall would be that they are bad at answering the phones but fairly good at calling you back if you leave a message. And they don't pick up on the weekends even tho they are open.

When it came time for the bride to try on wedding dresses, we were told to "do our jobs as bridesmaids & get dresses for her to try on" & we were left to fend for ourselves. Great customer service right??? Alterations were terrible! All they had to do on my dress was the hem & taken in a bit around the bust. The second fitting, my dress was way too tight! I was given some lame excuse about how taking in the bust affects the waist (my mom was a seamstress for years & I know this isn't true). During the alterations, we kept noticing spots on our dresses. It looked like someone didn't wash their hands before working on them. Needless to say, I won't be going to this store for anything to do with my wedding!!

Each person I worked with was very helpful and pleasant. A few days after I found a headpiece there that I loved, it was no longer on the shelf. The woman who helped me searched the fitting rooms, the alterations department, the front register, and finally came upon it on hold in the back. Since I didn't have the SKU, I never would have been able to order the same piece! She went above and beyond to assist me. I found the value very good since the price included the cost of alterations. My mother's alterations at the boutique an additional cost and were stressful. Once I began working with a seamstress at PDE, she is who I would always schedule to see; that way she knew what was supposed to be done and there was continuity. At the boutique, my mother had numerous people working on her dress and kept having to have the work fixed right up until the day before the wedding. And even then she was not completely satisfied with the final look. Overall, I found PDE's selection varied, the prices reasonable, and the staff friendly and accommodating.

My only complaint is that since I am 6 feet tall, I had to order the dress in extra length. I was told by a seasoned staff member there that Casablanca would make the dress CUSTOM LENGTH based on my measurements. After taking the measurements with the right sized heel on, I thought I would not have to alter the length. When I got the dress, it was about 6 inches LONGER than my custom length. I had to pay $75 extra for the 'custom length' of the dress but then had to pay my seamstress to take the dress up 6 inches.

Most of the staff was very helpful. I knew I wanted a Maggie Sottero dress and they had a wide selection of them. The alterations dept was very friendly.

It was truly a pleasure working with the party dress express. This was the first boutique I went to when looking for my wedding dress. And I ended up buying the first dress I tried on! This is not to say I didn't go to more boutiques and try on...
many more dresses because I did. The wonderful staff at PDE just knew what was right for me! I am in LOVE with my dress, and it was also the cheapest dress I tried on! Wonderful experience all around!

I'll admit, I went in to Party Dress Express not expecting great things, but the women working there were so nice and easy to work with. We had been to David's Bridal and found the staff there not helpful and difficult, and the staff at PDE wer...

I was so excited to find out that they had my dress and alterations would be included in the final price, no paying almost as much for the dress for alterations! However, I wish I had brought it somewhere else. For my final fitting the bustle w...
as supposed to be done so my matron-of-honor and a bridesmaid could learn how to do it. My MOH had driven 3 hours for the fitting and the bustle wasn't done. The seamstress reviewed how the bustle would go but it wasn't done so we could practice. When I picked up the dress it was pressed and hung so I couldn't try it on. When we got to the reception and it was time for me to be bustled we realized the seamstress forgot the hook right in the center of the dress, the most important one! The rest of the hooks barely held the thin string she used for loops. I am going to be bringing my dress back to them to show them how bad the bustle was.

Everyone at PartyDressExpress Bridal did so much to make my October wedding just PERFECT. My gown (Maggie Sottero Grace) was amazing, and everything they did to help me out leading up to it -- from quick and fantastic (and not to mention, FREE)...
alterations by Gen, to oooooooodles of patience from Chloe, Taizha, and the rest when I wasn't sure the color was "just right" -- really sets them apart from so many other stores. Our bridesmaid dresses were exactly right for the setting, too, and we got loads of compliments on everyone's attire. Since everyone purchased their dresses there, too, and I had 6 girls, everyone got 30% off - can't beat that! I now tell anyone and everyone who will listen about what great customer service they provide.
