Party Dress Express

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.

d makeup stains on the inside. She left me with no clothing on huddled in the corner as to not be seen by the gap in the curtain. The last straw was when I couldn't even get the dress on.

ed by bridesmaids to check it out. I was thinking I would just get a chance to try on a few dress styles to get a better idea of what I liked. Instead, I ended up trying on about fifteen dresses that the helpful staff and my bridesmaids pulled off the showroom floor. This place is like a department store in size but the ladies know what they are doing. They were very helpful and knowledgeable. I not only ended up buying my dress that day but was so impressed that I brought my future mother-in-law here to get her dress for the wedding. If you are looking for good values and excellent service, I can't recommend it enough. It is also conveniently located right off the highway so it is easy to get to.

to line up the dress for my girls. I'd seen it online & my cousin was able to try it on, while we were there. It's a really pretty & flattering dress. Can't wait to see them in their dresses! The select is great. I couldn't be happier!

work with. She chose the dress that I ended up purchasing, and I never imagined a dress on myself like the one I ended up with! She knew exactly what would look the best on me, and helped me with the ins and outs of bridal dress shopping! We had a wonderful experience, and went back for our rehearsal dinner dresses as well. They are highly recommended to anyone in the area looking for a beautiful dress, for any budget!

I couldn't be happier with the service they provided!

not ordered as well. It was resolved with no difficulty afterwards. The women that assisted me and my bridesmaids with their fitting were professional and made sure we were satisfied. Would highly recommend!

e than able to make all the changes I requested. If you are on a budget, I would highly recommend Party Dress Express due to the all inclusive pricing.

ss shop months in advance. I also called a lot of shops looking for dresses that were not strapless and was not having much luck. 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!

he dress of my dreams and it was super reasonable. I highly recommend party dress express!!!

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.

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!

g around. The dress I went with was actually $700 cheaper and included bridal alterations than another local store. Will recommend it to anyone. I went to at least 10 different bridal stores and they win for everything but what really sold me was the customer service. Thank you again Taizha, Jacqui, and Kelly.

) to change in. They have beautiful chandeliers, full length mirrors, and private viewing areas with seating for your friends and family. This place was truly the classiest of all the Boston salons I tried. I cannot say enough about their patience and politeness. They did t carry the dress I ultimately bought but they ordered it for me ($500 cheaper than the salon I found it in) and they do free alterations and even shipped it out of state once they altered it. 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. She and her team were on top of every detail!! They also gave my sister in law a great discount On her dress and shipped it directly to her house so she could have it altered by her seamstress.

what they we're doing and I was treated so well. I was so happy with my dress shopping experience that I brought all my girls back there to get their bridesmaids dresses. I must have gone to that store upwards of 15 times and not once did I have a bad experience! Everyone there is so kind and willing to make the process of buying a wedding dress the best it can be. I would not recommend anywhere else!!

everything I picked out. The prices were reasonable, and with alterations included on bridal gowns, they really can't be beat! I would definitely recommend Party Dress Express to future brides for a happy, stress free dress shopping experience! :)

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.

lly decided on a dress & were having our measurements taken, the sales associate was telling some of us to either wear a spanx or to lose weight! How humiliating is that?!? 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!!

irst dance! But it's something memorable to look back on.

whole experience stress free. Highly recommend!

in love with a couple dresses that day and fell in love with a dress I would never have chosen on my own! The alterations were included in the price and were done perfectly working with a tight timeline! Everyone there is very helpful and my dress looked beautiful!

ropped everything they were doing and basically helped me pick out a great outfit. Very down to earth atmosphere and they made me feel super comfortable. Definitely check it out!!

alterations experience at the boutique, my experience was wonderful. The sales staff at PDE was accommodating, allowing a private appointment before the store opened on a Sunday. 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. I would recommend them to anyone.

et me exchange for a beautiful headband. The alterations team was great. They made me feel at ease and worked around my schedule as I live in the midwest and was only back in MA for short periods of time. They schedued my final fitting for only a few days before the wedding when I arrived in the state, but assured me they would fix it in time if anything was off. The dress was perfect for my last fitting! They really put m mind at ease about everything and were very flexible!

n the floor that day were so fantastic to my mother and I. I loved the dress the day I purchased it and loved it even more on my wedding day.

t of dresses that would flatter my body! Fittings were easy as they offered early morning fittings before the store opened, which made it very convenient!

each purchased their dresses at local shops. The store has every dress/designer imaginable. Two hours in 1 dressing room allowed me to find THE DRESS without tons of trips to tons of boutiques. The staff was attentive from day 1. Alterations were included in the cose of my dress - my patient, understanding, and detail oriented seamstress was always cheerfully helpful through all 5 alteration visits. I lost a good bit of weight in the last few weeks so she needed to pull the dress in more than once. She even offerend another round of alterations despite the single flat rate included with my dress. This woman was more concerned about my dress fitting than I was & I was the bride! I found it was a bit of a trick to find the first time there, but that was a very small price to pay. I very strongly recommend Party Dress Express to brides; the wide selection and excellent staff is hard to come by anywhere else. They don't have bargain basement prices, but they are on par with most other brick & mortar bridal shops.

amstress team at Party Dress Express goes above and beyond for you as a bride. They have very talented experienced woman fixing the dresses to the best fit for the bride.

she found my perfect gown! from shopping to final alterations for both my gown and my bridesmaids, dress express was attentive, helpful and knowledgeable about their inventory! (even grabbed a few great deal dresses for the honeymoon)

ations. They allowed me to select a different gown at no charge. They also included alterations and did an amazing job fitting my dress.

me here first for your wedding gown !!!

they setup a meeting with the seamstress before I purchased it and held it in storage for me until my alterations needed to be started. My mom found her dress on the clearance rack, my girls all ordered their dresses there with free alterations and a discount off the ticket price, and my mother-in-law found her dress here as well. The girls who worked with my mother-in-law even recommended a different dress that was less expensive and came in the same style and color as the one she liked. The service at this store is unparallelled and I've recommended them to everyone I know.

for me. Of course not, couldnt hurt. Well this girl knows her job cause the dress she picked is the one that made me cry! Everyone there knows what they are doing and are very friendly and outgoing. I got my dress, bridesmaids and flower girl dress there. Definitely a place you need to check out there are so many choices at a great price

ride dresses and bridesmaids dresses, as well as hair accessories, shoes, purses, you name it! I was thrilled with my gorgeous gown and the incredible service I recieved

tting prefectly.

s unbelievably sweet and helpful. She guided me in choosing my dress, shoes, veil, and other accessories. The staff is very patient and made me feel special on every visit. I had a great experience working with them.

d a lot of them were under $500. The staff was very helpful and kept finding me different dresses to try. It was a great experience!

fit to a T. When I went in for my last appointment the seamstress even made a final alteration on the spot because she did not like the way one part of my dress fit. My bridesmaids and my mother also had their alterations done their (the bridesmaids bought their dresses through here, and therefore the alterations were free). The only reason I would give them 4 stars instead of 5 is because a few of the girls had to come in 3 or 4 times for alterations, and they still ended up bringing their dresses to another seamstress. The dresses, however, were all beautiful, and looked fabulous on our wedding day!

red their guidance when you needed it and stood idly by at the appropriate moments as well. I ended up with a clearance gown for $300!! It was perfect and just my size- the third dress I tried on. The seamstress that does alterations for this boutique was FANTASTIC! I would recommend them to anyone.

one. The alterations department was able to alter the beading to make my dress truly one of a kind - I didn't want to take my dress off at the end of the night! I ended up getting my shoes, some jewelry, mob dress, and bridesmaid dresses there. The value was great and alterations were free with my dress. I am going to bring them some pics of the wedding and will be bringing them gifts when I do. Truly wonderful experience.

er places I went to. Prices are reasonable as well! Variety!!!! DO NOT GO TO DAVIDS BRIDAL..FYI!

fantastic job it was perfect. My only disappointment was my bustle did not hold up.

most beautiful one. The staff was SO nice and helpful! I can't get over how amazing everyone was and how accommodating they were. I have already recommended this place to 2 close friends and am now recommending it to you! Go and give Party Dress Express a chance you might come out with THE DRESS for YOU! :-)

it in. The staff was friendly. The alteration process was very smooth. PDE will alter a dress as many times necessary at no additional charge. Another plus! My bridal party also purchased their dresses at PDE. They received a 20% discount because they decided to have their dresses altered near their home (they all lived out of town). The only issue was a few of them received dresses that was huge on them! Apparently, their was some issues with the size chart and measurements. The goods news is PDE rectified the issue with an additional discount. The owner was very understanding and willing to do whatever necessary to make sure everyone was happy. Overall, I think they offer a great selection of dresses at prices less than other bridal shops. They truly believe in making the customer happy!

E due to its proximity to my home and after being told they had a great selection. i was thrilled with the selection and was extremely pleased with the sales staff, particularly MARIA, who assisted me with patience and professionalism. i felt they were very honest, pleasant, and helpful....even after my nearly 4-5 trips there to try and retry on the dress that i was strongly considering!!!! maria and the other women managed to make me feel special throughout the experience; while at the same time offering their opinions and advice... when i finally decided to purchase the dress there (which WAS fabulous, and i had seen nowhere else), the measurements were taken and when the dress came in, it fit almost perfectly. the only downside to PDE was my experience with alterations. i felt quite hurried during fittings and it was always quite crowded, without what i felt was the individual attention/time needed for this service. it is my understanding that they are trying to improve the alteration experience to match the quality of service on the sales floor. i strongly recommend a visit to PDE for its huge selection, great prices, and pleasant sales staff. hopefully, you too, will find that special dress like i did!!!!

0% discount on those because of the size of the party. I really enjoyed every aspect of the wedding dress hunt... EXCEPT the week of my wedding when we went to get my dress and the veil had been steemed and hung incorrectly and it was melted together, and my dress had been steemed incorrectly and was creased up the middle and looked horrible. This wasn't stress I needed the week of our wedding. So I had to return to the store the following day and the dress and veil were fixed, but the dress wasn't altered correctly, so they had to alter it again while I waited. Long story, the dress looked amazing the price was right and the SALES people were amazing as well...My bridesmaids LOVED their dresses and my Mother in law got her dress there as well!

o patient and helpful, my experience in the store was wonderful. I was given 20% off the dress if I used my own seamstress, which I had so that made me very happy. They also gave me a gift certificate to the store for any accessories I wanted of 10% of the price of the dress (used it to pay for 1/2 of my veil.) 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. I wished they had told me the truth that the dress would just come in extra length of 8-10 inches instead of telling me it would be custom length. Then I could have budgeted for a more expensive seamstress bill.

luded in the price, they were done quickly and efficiently.

of a size. overall would recomend. beautiful dresses. priced accordingly. and they hold the dress until ur wedding

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!

e absolutely lovely. They were always smiling and happy to see you and eager to please. They far exceeded my expectations.

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.

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.
