The shop is absolutely adorable, with the right amount of variety to find something perfect without feeling overwhelmed or feel like a factory. You can tell the dresses and designers are carefully selected. Beyond the stunning, quality dresses, the service is what will stay with me. Amy was so thoughtful in her approach, asking the right questions and creating a comfortable, focused experience for me and my mom. She was kind, patient, and genuinely supportive, even as I navigated all the emotions and anxieties that come with throwing a wedding - to put it lightly :) I live in San Francisco, and after trying several shops there, I'm 100% confident about purchasing my dress at Wedding Belles. They are truly a calm and fun stop in the craziness that is wedding planning. Highly recommend!

The staff was able to work with her after hearing what happened. They reached out to her before the appointment to see what the style of her original dress was. When we got to the store, the owner had already pulled four beautiful dresses that were the same style as the dress that was lost. The appointment was everything any bride could hope for. The woman who was helping my friend was AMAZING. She knew when to help, and when to step back. As soon as my friend picked out her beautiful gown.

No impressed. Had high hopes for this place because it was suppose to be the premier place to go to…read morein New Orleans for dresses but it was dead upon arrival. This place is unorganized and it looks like a place where dresses go to die. All the dresses were crammed on rolling racks which made it look cheap and impossible to browse. Don't let their Instagram fool you. Some of the dresses advertised on there are not even in-store! Of all the wedding places I've been to all over Metairie and NOLA, this place was the most disappointing. They didn't even offer refreshments and the appointment felt rushed. If you go, be prepared to pay for street parking!! Bride tip, why bother buying dresses from this place when all the other bridal stores in the area carry the same dress/designers for less the price and will give you a better experience. Don't waste your time on this place. Also, they charge you $100 before your appointment just to book where most places only charges you if you don't show. AVOID THIS PLACE. Not worth your time and energy. #dusty

My experience with Porter Lyons has been the worst I've ever had with a 'fine' jeweler. My fiancé…read morerecently purchased a ring from them, and it arrived with significant quality control issues. It was clear the ring was not properly built; the stone was visibly loose, wobbly, and audibly rattled with any movement. A different jeweler we took it to for repair explained the prongs were incorrectly installed/made and lacked the indentions needed to secure the stone. This shoddy craftsmanship was concerning, but what followed made the experience truly unacceptable. The ring arrived without any appraisal paperwork, raising immediate concerns about the materials and stones used (though thankfully, everything ordered stone/metal wise was received, apart from the poor craftsmanship). When I contacted the store to express my concerns about both the ring's quality and the missing appraisal, my issues were repeatedly ignored and dismissed. I was falsely informed they didn't offer or even provide appraisals for items purchased from them. Furthermore, I was told I couldn't discuss my issue further without an order number and that even speaking to someone in-store about repairs would incur a fee. The associate I spoke to over the phone, who had a thick accent, even refused to give me her name. My fiancé's call with a sales associate on a different occasion reinforced that appraisals weren't provided or sent with pieces, and that they wouldn't fix the ring without a consultation fee. Conveniently, on a more recent call with upper management, my fiancé learned we could have brought the ring in under warranty for a free repair - this revelation came the weekend after we'd already paid 20% of the rings price to have it fixed elsewhere. He was told that there was nothing else they'd do for us except allegedly send us appraisal paperwork. It felt as though our legitimate concerns were consistently brushed aside without serious consideration, regardless of whom we spoke with. The sheer lack of accountability and dismissive attitude throughout this entire process was truly astonishing. Between receiving a ring whose quality did not reflect its price point, and being told to effectively absorb the cost by everyone I spoke to, my dissatisfaction is unmeasurable. I would strongly advise customers to reconsider purchasing from Porter Lyons. The combination of shoddy craftsmanship and utterly unhelpful customer service has left me appalled. I will never recommend them or purchase from them again.

I know for their dresses they offer free alterations so that's extremely valuable and what a great service? They also offer gift wrapping in store which really and truly helps with half the battle when buying gifts I think.
