Deanna and Carol and Nicki were extremely helpful, sweet, kind and honest! I had been searching for a mother of the groom dress and Carol selected a dress I would not have chosen to try on off the rack. It wowed everyone in the room and I loved it! When I decided to buy it on another trip back to the store to get measured, I tried on another dress and nothing compared to this royal blue halter style dress with a jewel neckline. It truly was stunning and Deanna and Nicki agreed when I asked for their opinion. Their faces said it all and they made the whole process seamless and fun! read more

I walked in no geeting no help stayed a while ro see if anyone would address me. Haha nothing. The place is small all the dresses are bunched up on top of each other. read more

Picked up my MOG gown today. Nicki was fabulous in helping me to choose exactly what I wanted. Hundreds of gowns to try on and wonderful, helpful staff! Would definitely recommend a visit. read more

I was very stressed and unsure what kind of dress I wanted for my Engagement Party. I was greeted by the sweetest associates that were determined to help me. I went alone and fragile and they made me feel seen and not alone. A dress was pulled for me once they got a sense of my vibe. I knew instantly that was my dress. We had so much fun making it even more my personality by adding a bling belt, shortening the length, and adding thin straps. It was honestly a truly special experience that I will never forget. First dress I tried on and I'm a picky, indecisive person was the winner. I couldn't have done it without the girls and seamstress. read more

Highly, highly recommend this boutique! Excellent service and great quality. Deana will go out of her way to make sure she finds the perfect dress for you! She helped my daughter find a lovely dress for her Sweet 16! And it was a pleasure dealing with her read more

As a bride and her mother shopping for MOB dresses, this was the worst experience we ever had. We entered the store with an appointment, nobody helped us until about 30 minutes in. Nobody helped my mother pick out dresses, help her get into the dresses, clip her, nothing! The lady was too busy paying attention to this one other person trying on dresses. My mom had questions about the dresses, the lady responded with one words and didn't have any answers. Very unhelpful. If you work for a company where people are spending hundreds of dollars for a dress, they need to be informed about what they are selling and put their customers as priority. Overall, the customer service is disgusting. I will never recommend or return. This store ruined our day together and this memorable moment. read more

So much anxiety shopping for MOB dresses but Patty was so welcoming and positive that I was instantly at ease. She worked tirelessly to find me a gown. We need more people like Patty ! read more

The best place to shop for a special occasion dress on Long Island! My mom did not want a run-of-the-mill dress to wear to my wedding, instead Dress Gala found her a gorgeous mermaid style mother of the bride dress back in 2017. She looked stunning and everyone at the shop was so accommodating and knowledgeable about designers and sizing. Fast forward two years and she just purchased her mother of the groom dress for my brother's wedding! This dress is beautiful and again so not boring. I hope they're around for a very long to come!! read more

Nice selection. Very busy place even with appointments. Alterations very high priced, comparatively speaking. (& cash only for alterations) read more

I can't say enough nice things about the people that work in this dress store not to mention their dresses are absolutely beautiful but the owner of Diana and one of the seamstress that I met Rosa were just absolutely outstanding people what they did for my daughter and I, I cannot even put into words I was in anyway to express in more than just words, my gratitude and appreciation for the way we were treated when we came in and for what Diana has done for my daughter I would do anything. They truly are an outstanding facility and I would never go to another dress store if I needed a dress or dress fitting, Rose was an absolute sweetheart. My daughter felt very comfortable in this store as well. They deserve more than five stars. read more

I recently stopped into Dress Gala looking for a mother of groom gown. Beautiful selection of dresses. Staff was so helpful and accommodating. Found the perfect gown! I highly recommend for anyone looking for an event gown. read more

Beyond disappointed. The best part of this store was the young sales associate who helped me. When my dress came in it needed to be taken in which I assumed. I met with the seamstress who seemed to know exactly what I wanted and gave me confidence that the dress would be great. After me second dress fitting and more alterations I brought the dress home almost in tears. The dress still doesn't fit. The top puckers because it's too big. Long story short, I have an $800 dress (with alterations) that I can not wear for my son's wedding. Need to now find a dress within 30 days. Great service from sales...very patient. Unwearable Dress because I relied on a seamstress who didn't deliver. Waste of money read more

Just came back home from prom dress shopping with my daughter. We first went to Estelle's a few weeks ago. I was crazy about it. So we Googled and Dress Gala popped up. We made an appointment which is required because they want to give you personalized attention. Which we got. We walked out with big smiles and a dress. Not only was the staff fantastic but we were talking and chatting with the other clients. Their prices competitive with other dress shops. I definitely recommend making this your first stop. read more

I can't say enough about Dress Gala and especially the owner Diona. I came in as a plus size Mother of the Groom (with a miserable attitude) thinking I'd find NOTHING that would either fit or that I would look good in. Diona not only made me feel special but assured me that she "had this". Dress after dress she worked with me. Some too tight (that she made work) and some too loose (god bless her and her clips) and after many laughs and not a single tear, I found my dress! Also, a note to mention...I was there among tiny (TINY!!) prom dress shoppers (who would look awesome in a paper bag) who were so sweet and supportive while this mom tried on dresses and "fought" for the mirror. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart Diona for making this mom comfortable and happy during what could have been a miserable experience. read more

Lovely hidden dress shop with fair prices Mary and Carol stood out as being very helpful and attentive. Great recommendations and super customer service. I will return. read more

My daughter had the most amazing experience picking out her Bat Mitzvah dress at Dress Gala. The whole staff were so kind and patient with my daughter and made her feel so special. They owner couldn't have have been nicer to not only my daughter but to my mother, aunt and myself. There were so many dresses to choose from In different colors and sizes. The seamstresses that altered my daughters dress were also amazing. We had a last minute fix and the seamstress had stitched it so we would not have to make a trip back. I highly recommend this store. I can not wait to go back with my 2nd daughter for her bat mitzvah in 2 years!!! read more

I can't sing high enough praises for this well stocked dress store, centrally located in Commack. I tried at least four others with no luck. Then my friend told me about Dress Gala. In one afternoon appointment, the professional sales people who work there all came to my rescue. I was pleasantly surprised by how many choices they recommended, every one perfect. It was hard not to take all. Alas, the one we as a collective group conferred on, brought me many compliments at my affair. Thank you! Melissa Topping read more

Best dress shop on Long Island! I must have visited every dress shop in Suffolk County while shopping for a Mother of the Groom dress. I returned to the Dress Gala four times before I made my decision and each time I was greeted with a smile from the sales associates. They did not rush me and gave me as much time and help as they did on my first visit. The owner of the shop is an amazing, incredible, kind, helpful young lady. I had an issue when my dress came in but it was "my" issue, not the fault of the shop. The owner listened to my concerns and although she didn't have to, she made it right for me. Customer service is not a priority at many stores, but it is at Dress Gala. They truly want to make sure you are going to be happy and comfortable with your decision. They are the complete package from their selection of dresses, friendliness, and very competitive prices. I highly recommend Dress Gala for special occasion dress shopping. read more

The amazing Diona Marie OF Dress Gala ! It's so nice to have your own PRIVATE Dresser. Someone who knows exactly what you like and what looks great on you. I LOVE YOU MUCH GF! read more

I called to make sure they were open- drove 45 minutes and they were closed! On website said open but no one there

I am a Dad to 3 teenage girls. I have no clue about dress shopping. I am very thankful wrk the team at Dress Gala for helping us find 2 dresses that are beautiful. They are honest and fair and very helpful. Thank you Ladies. I will be back for more. Dan read more

Nothing but good things to say about Dress Gala! Pat was so kind and helpful. Had the best experience finding a mother of the groom dress for my sons wedding in August. I was very welcoming and helpful and truly made my dress dreams come through! read more

I Walked in with a few friends excited to look for a junior prom dress. We were extremely disappointed when nobody greeted us to help. They were helping out others and the workers clearly saw us. We looked around for a few minutes but left in disgust when nobody thought to come over. Unfortunately me, my friends that were here, and our other friends will not be returning or coming to purchase a dress. read more

I cannot say enough about this store. Just when I was about to give up because I could not find the right dress for my bridesmaids, I came here and because of the patience of the staff...not only did I find it, but I had trouble picking from the options offered. The prices were very reasonable. The staff was honest and gave helpful opinions. They quickly helped all of my bridesmaids to find their right size and got the order in quickly. They also have a quick turnaround time for delivery of the dresses. So happy! read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE. I came to dress gala looking for a dress for my cousin's wedding. It was very last minute - I had just finished my first year of grad school and was thinking I might get lucky - otherwise I'd wear something I already have. They made me feel very uncomfortable for waiting until the last minute - passive aggressive about me not knowing that most dresses have to be ordered way in advance - I found myself apologizing to them. I usually wear a 0-2 but now I'm a 2-4. After one dress was a little tight they bought me a 6 - "try on the 6 more your size" I left dress gala feeling like shit. This place seems like the place where they'll pretend to be nice until you leave the store and they'll start talking poorly about whomever. They asked me what I didn't like about one dress and I said I was looking for something more simple. They then told me to try a bright pink dress with glitter along the side. 16 YEAR OLD PROM DRESSES. That's all this store has. It's not a place to go if you are looking for a simple and/or sophisticated dress. It's all glitz and glitter. What separates an ok store from a great one is its ability to be sensitive and responsive regarding its customers and what they're looking for - working together to find what image you have of the perfect dress. You won't find that here Unless something changes - this will stay that store 16 year olds go to look for their prom dress after nothing is found at store 1, 2, or 3. Welcome to the business world, Dress Gala. I hope changes are made - they're way off the mark in my opinion. read more

First and most important if your reading this I thank you for respecting my opinion Now to Nicole S. Who just completed law school you should be more aware that you need a wedding dress and be prepared. I don't see how your apology to them would fix the actual time crisis at hand. It seems to me that your just taking your frustrations out on this place simply because you didn't get it your way. They are experts when it comes to clothes so if they recommend a size 6 means you most likely gained more weight than you had anticipated for which I just suggest a simple jog daily and you'll be back to your regular self all though I'm sure your still very beautiful at size 6 I went there a week before prom for my 16 year old daughter and they made the impossible happen which I am beyond thankful for . It wasn't all peachy but the girls there did their best and my daughter looked beyond beautiful for her first prom. If your looking for help with your dresses last minute and are willing to receive the help they have to offer defiantly take a trip down. They're awesome read more

The staff was extremely knowledgeable which was important since I had a bit of an odd role as "step mother of the groom". They helped me find something very flattering and age-appropriate, and their prices were about 1/3 of what I had been afraid I would have to pay! I will go back anytime I need a special dress and I also have been recommending them to my friends. Thank you so much! read more

The girls at Dress Gala were so super helpful! I told them what I was looking for and they found a bunch of perfect styles for me to try on. I ended up leaving with something right off the rack. Highly recommended!! read more

I really love this place. I was recommended by a friend. My daughter and I were shopping for a 8th grade formal dance, so we did not want to spend a lot but wanted something pretty. They had plenty of dresses under 200 and a big selection in her size. Very nice staff as well, helpful. read more

I went there to buy a prom dress for my daughter and not one person helped us we stood there for 10 minutes holding dresses when we finally got help they put us in a room and the girl walked away without helping my daughter. My daughter liked the dress and decided she wanted to get it. After buying it and going back for the dress fitting I asked the seemstress if she could leave me a swatch and she said yes, but when I went recently to pick it up there was none. After I asked the people working they said the seamstress had thrown away all the fabric leaving me with nothing. They said they would get back to me if she finds any and I havent heard from them since. read more

I brought my daughter prom dress shopping. As soon as we walked into Dress Gala, a very friendly girl named Olivia welcomed us with a smile. She asked what we were shopping for, any interests that we had in dresses and then brought us to exactly what we were looking for. She stayed with us throughout our time there and was extremely helpful to all our needs. She provided different options of accessories and colors that we definitely would of not thought of on our own. I would absolutely come bak here for any other dress shopping. She made the experience so much better. Thank you Olivia! read more

This is, hands down, THE best dress store on Long Island. My sister needed a dress, and of course she waited until the last minute. The girls working at Dress Gala really know their stuff. They were able to elicit what kind of dress my sister wanted, and then were able to show her some styles that matched her description. They were able to accurately size her in a dress that would make her look fantastic, and was right for her height/body type. A few of my girl friends and my mom (and their moms) have also shopped here, and had very positive experiences. If you are unable to find a dress, the staff will continue to assist you, going out of their way to make sure they can find/order what you're looking for, and that you leave happy. Dress Gala seems to really care about their customers, which is rare for a retail business. read more
