Amazing staff! They were incredibly helpful and we found the perfect dress for my daughter.

Joy ruined our whole experience. Our goal was to find bridesmaid dresses that had a different cut but same color. We understand that this is difficult because of different makers and fabrics but we were recommended this place by another business and wanted to give it a chance. We were helped and measured by very kind employees but when we got to the fitting rooms things took a turn. Me and my sister were assigned dressing rooms and a person to help us zip up and mine happened to be Joy. We tried on two dresses and they were fine but the colors didn't quite match- as expected so we were discussing that. When Joy heard this- she did not want to allow my sister to try on another dress because I did not have one that matched that color. When my sister explained that she wanted to see how the cut looked on her Joy lost it and said we were using her and not buying dresses. This was also odd because I asked Joy for something modest and she had me try on a dress with a revealing thigh slit and a deep v neck line that wasn't even in the colors we were looking for after saying all that stuff to my sister. She accused us of not being serious shoppers, argued with all three of us and even complained about my sister to me when we were alone in the changing room and made me extremely uncomfortable. So unprofessional. Long story short- avoid Joy at all costs. She's not looking to help you, just looking for you to pay and get out of the store. We ended up having our Pretty Women moment though when we spent over $1000 on other dresses at a store just down the street. read more

If I could give 6 stars I would!! I love the environment and the wide variety of dresses and color options. Joy and Joel were very helpful and very pleasant! I would 100% recommend shopping here, I love my prom dress! Also they wilonly sell one dress for every school which I love because I will have a unique dress that no one else will be wearing. **Written by my High School Senior daughter** read more

Had a great experience here. Made an appointment and was able to have my daughter try on different styles and colors of dresses. Found a beautiful dress and the price was reasonable. Would have been five stars if they had her size or could guarantee delivery that her size would arrive in time. Opted not to chance it and took it in for alterations. read more

We made an appointment at Lizzie G based on all the 5 star reviews. We had a 5 star experience start to finish. They require appointments but that is what made my daughter's experience so special, we had the full attention of Joel (owner) and his team. We chose several dresses that the team pulled quickly for us in my daughter's size. We had a helper, Katelyn, who helped to tie, zip and adjust my daughter in each dress she tried on. Once we narrowed the choices down, Joel pulled up the color palettes of each dress. Once my daughter made her choice we ordered and paid with efficiency. My daughter will have her dress in just a couple days because they didn't have her size in their on site inventory. Highly recommend this place for an exceptional prom dress shopping experience! read more

This was our first visit to Lizzie G Formals and based on this experience we will definitely be return customers! We had to make an appointment to respect Covid guidelines which was excellent. When we entered we rang the bell and were greeted right away! It was myself my daughter and her boyfriend. We were greeted by the son who is co-owner with the mother and proprietor of the dress shop. The greeting was kind and sincere, we felt right at home immediately. I will admit it was overwhelming with all the dresses and styles were not separated per se but that didn't stop us from finding the perfect match! They allowed us to take her time walk through the dresses there every step of the way for help and questions! Joy measured my daughter and we had great conversations this part far as goals and fit. She was very attentive to my daughter in the dressing room helping her get in and out of the garments which I found awesome! Not only the one on one attention but I'm sure they preserve the quality of the garments that way as well. What was also super cool, is that they took notes of where she went to high school. Ensuring that that particular dress would not be sold to another individual in the same color. So you're not going to have a situation or at least your decreasing the likelihood of two girls having the same dress in the same color. That was above and beyond. Great people, great experience and I would recommend them highly. read more

Took my grand daughter here for her Senior Prom dress and she was blown away by the choices. The dresses were beautiful, the service was impeccable, overall great experience. They are returning this week to try on and pick one out. There are sooooooo many....Grand daughter is very happy!!! read more

One of my favorite new shows, "Timeless" finally re-appeared for their second season last night - and they'd traveled to "Old Hollywood." Little did I know that today's sushi craving at Akaihana would, afterward, have me walking amongst gorgeous gowns and being treated like Hollywood royalty myself! Named for their daughter, "Elizabeth Grace" and with their original location actually in California (Salinas,) it's wonderful to welcome a family business to the Valley... and to have been so warmly welcomed by Joel and Joy, husband and wife. It's actually Joy and her son who run the store. They aren't even "officially" open yet and prom dress-seekers were already a-flurry in the fitting rooms. Wow, have prom dresses gotten "less poofy!" since the late '80s. Whether you're prom-shopping, bridesmaid-dress shopping, LBD-shopping, or just desperately-seeking-sequins ;-), I have no doubt you should give Joy a shout. (Note: they don't offer actual bridal gowns.) I shopped dresses across price-points, colors, fabrics, styles - quite an impressive selection. They also stock shoes and accessories. They haven't a tailor on-site - it's more "off the rack". They're still putting finishing touches around the shop - their daughter is an artist and she's custom-making a beautiful countertop for their checkout area. It'll be cool to see the before/after... much like the before/after when you find yourself in the perfect dress. read more

I just need to preface this with I hate shopping and I hate trying on clothes. With that being said of course I waited until 4 days before a black tie event to try and find a dress. I stumbled upon this store through Yelp. The store I intended to go to was closed for another hour and I'm also very impatient. I ran over to Lizzie G's with no expectations, just hopeful they'd have something in stock. Joy greeted me warmly and made the whole experience wonderful and painless. I was direct in what I was looking for so she took my measurements and showed me a few dresses. She also explained their ordering only takes 3 days which is great. She pointed out a dress that initially didn't stand out to me but once it was on ... wow! I'm so excited for my event this weekend and to show off this killer new dress. Joy is fantastic. I would absolutely recommend this family owned business. Also of course I can't leave out, there are so many gorgeous dresses and accessories. Prom, formal events : whatever you're looking for, check them out! read more

This place has so many options, it was overwhelming at first. Heads up no bags in the store but they have a locker area to store it. Ms. Joy and her team were patient and made suggestions for dresses I may like, their suggestions were beautiful. You do have to make an appointment to try on the dresses. I was able to take pictures of the dresses that I wanted to try on and they do assist with assembling the dress so nothing happens to the dress. I was able to schedule the try on that day and found a beautiful dress. The team was amazing and this is family owned so I will definitely be back for more dresses. read more

I had an amazing experience here! The owner and her son are so welcoming and friendly. I came into the store thinking I wasn't going to find anything I wanted as I had my eye on a Sherri Hill dress that was over $700! I got here, was greeted with the warmest welcome and was immediately helped to find my perfect dress! I will be coming back for when I need a dress for next years Marine Corps ball! We took professional photos at the ball in the dress and the team here really made me feel beautiful and confident in my dress choice! If you are looking for Jovani and Sherri Hill quality without the price tag this place is it! I will forever remember this dress for the rest of my life! read more

This review is based on the customer service I received earlier today. I came to this store in hopes of trying on and purchasing several gowns for my reign as an International pageant queen. The saleswoman Joy immediately headed me off at the door while asking me "what are you looking for?" It struck me as odd behavior considering the store was totally empty in the middle of the day. I responded with a thorough description of a specific color (emerald green) and silhouette (mermaid/fishtail & fitted as I am a 6'0" woman w/ a lean and proportional size 6 dancer's/model's hourglass frame). I had assumed Joy was going to show me directly to the racks containing those gowns, but she shrugged and walked away saying she wasn't sure she had any because my preference was "an odd color that there weren't many choices of." After making my way through the reasonably sized store on my own, I located a rack full of gowns in the exact color I had requested, none of which were of the quality I would expect from someone who seemed so desperate to be...uppity? Oddly enough, as I made my way to the area of the store where she and her son stood idly at their computers, Joy followed me around offering a series of gowns she thought I should try. When I asked for a fitted silhouette she insisted on a flowy one. When I asked for emerald green, she recommended "maroon because it's a hot color." When I reiterated that I wanted a fitted gown, she brought me the puffy gown shown here on her token black model. She then curtly asked me what size I was and skeptically insisted on measuring me in front of her cash wrap (and not in a dressing room), saying "Yeah, you're a size larger than you thought." I informed Joy "I had a baby 3 months ago and am normally a size 6, so a size 8 will suffice to accommodate my current curves." She then proceeded to inform me that "most of our inventory is in a size 4 or extra small." As a model, I found this strange. But I suppose a size 6 or 8 is enormous and gowns don't come in my size...? Interestingly enough, when I logged onto Yelp to leave this review, I noticed a post she made saying that the store carries a variety of sizes for every body type? If this isn't enough, she refused to allow me to try on most of the gowns I expressed interest in saying, "you won't be able to zip it up." When I requested to have them ordered from the designer, she went off on a tangent about them being "all out." Body shaming from a stout, middle-aged woman who stands over a foot shorter than me is just not something I will entertain. I quickly grew tired of her bizarre and passive aggressive behavior and decided to leave. Upon my exit, I overheard another group of women scolding her son for telling them how a dress was "supposed to fit a woman." The woman in question seemed pretty upset and quipped, "I've been a woman for 42 years, I think I know how a dress should fit, and I don't need you to tell me that." Joy, if you are reading this, let me give you some helpful hints: 1. You should refrain from measuring people in front of your cash wrap when you have fitting rooms available, this is unprofessional and would humiliate a woman with less confidence. Do you do this to teenagers and others whom you deem "acceptable clients?" Why were you so rude to me today? 2. You should refrain from hovering over people while they are in the fitting rooms and watching people get undressed, it is creepy, unprofessional and disrespectful. I did not appreciate you insisting on waiting with your hand inside of the dressing room while I changed, this was unacceptable. Do you treat all of your customers this way? And was this why you referred to my purse as a "suitcase?" If you are concerned with loss prevention, I recommend you invest in a security system. 3. You should refrain from making passive aggressive remarks about other women's bodies when you don't have your own appearance tightened up. Furthermore, you should carry a variety of sizes and silhouettes to accommodate women of all statures who patronize your business. Do you, or do you not carry all sizes? 4. You should refrain from referring to discounts and sales if a client does not inquire. Why did you choose to discuss prices repeatedly with me, when I never asked you for a discount? I will wait for you to share why you assumed I needed one... I had high hopes for your store, but have decided not to return. I will however be sure to inform the various ivy league alumnae, sorority, and women's groups I belong to of your poor customer service and unprofessional behavior so they do not shop there and fall victim to the same poor treatment. You and your son need a refresher in customer care. This is 2019, you must stop assuming things about people based on their appearances. As you may now know, it doesn't feel good to be judged solely based upon looks. I can only guess this was what motivated your behavior today. I anticipate your response to this feedback! read more

Such a relaxing fun experience here! Joy is such a pleasure to speak to and gives you the boutique experience with a large shop selection at great prices. I live in another state and she took my measurements over the phone. When I finally got the opportunity to try on the dress it fit so well. I was more than impressed! Her son was helping at the front and was really polite and professional! They really want to make you feel welcome which I love as oppose to just a customer. Thanks Joy for the good vibes and beautiful shop to spend time in!! read more

This was such an amazing experience! From the minute we walked in when Joel greeted us at the door, we were amazed by the friendliness and welcoming nature of this store. The selection was unbelievable. It made me want to find more fancy events to go to! Love that they only make appointments because you're guaranteed to have that 1:1 attention that you need when buying a nice dress. And then Joel ended up being the one who found the dress we ended up buying! Everything you could ever need and more. Store was super clean and very organized. Recommend to anyone looking for a formal dress! read more

I happen to be in the plus sizes as many women are now these days. If you happen to be like me you know its hard to find formal gowns in your size. I was given the task of being a Made of Honor in my friends wedding. I literally was given 3 weeks notice until the wedding. 2 of these weeks I have spent getting dirty looks, getting told they have nothing in my size, even told they would not allow me to try dresses on, and my personal favorite judged as if I could not afford the dresses. I found Lizzie G on google right away I fell in love with the huge selection they show in the pictures. I was hesitant to call but I did. I asked if they carried my size? Right away she said yes and even sent me pictures of a couple. Mind you she was not even in town She text me telling me to come in and get sized. I walked in today and she was there with her son with a smile on their faces and ready for the day. I immediately felt welcomed and comfortable she fitted me and within two seconds she had me trying on dresses. They held long conversations did not make me feel rushed at all. She helped me zip up the dresses and even offered to help me add beading to a dress on her own time. Her son was so wonderful he was searching dresses and looking through the catalogs he was very attentive.They both listened to me and truly understood what I was looking for. On top of the hundreds of dresses all ready in stock, they said they could order any dress that I like and it would only take 3 days to come in! I felt as if I was in a place wit friends not some one who is trying to get me to buy a dress and leave. I would recommend this store to every one of all shapes and sizes. They were amazing and the store is so quiet and everything is so nicely placed. Even though they have a lot of dresses it is not jammed packed and you can view every dress easily. The prices are also reasonable and they offer a lot of collections that even Davids bridal has but at more of a reasonable price.The location is very convenient and very easy to get to. Even if you are just looking for a prom dress I would recommend checking them out. read more

As a plus size woman it is difficult to find good quality formal dresses that art the right color, fit, style etc. I read reviews on Lizzie G and was especially concerned by a super long review they also had a rating of one star. But the website said they had plus size clothes and I was desperate so I went there to check them out. The person who left that review must be out of her mind!! The service I received was warm and welcoming! They did not have the color I was looking for in stock, but they measured me and had me try on another color, just to try the fit and ordered me the color I was looking for! I really appreciate how attentive Joy was to make sure the dress I tried on was so well taken care of. Other stores let the dresses drop and I often find that they have beads missing and snags and just look worn. But these dresses are so well cared for I really appreciated her watchful eye and attention to the care of each dress. The dress they ordered for me came in about 4 days and fit me perfectly, just as Joy said it would! I'm glad I waited those 4 days rather than buy an off the rack, and probably off the floor, dress at a department store! If you are a plus size lady try them out!! I am a 20-22 and found a great dress! I felt gorgeous! Glad I waited those 4 days!! read more

i've never had a better experience at a dress store!! i'm a very small person and can never find anything that fits me. The lady their measured me, told me my size, asked me what I was looking for and asked what i liked and didn't like. Every dress their was in amazing conduction, i swear their wasn't one gem out of place on any dress!! I beyond recommend this store... truly incredible. read more

THIS PLACE IS TRULY FANTASTIC! My niece was in front out of state wanting to find a prim dress to take back home. I knocked on the door and was met with the kindest people! Even though it was by appointment only they allowed us to walk around their store to look at some of their dresses. While we were there, someone had canceled and they allowed us to take their appointment the following day. The prices were great, customer service fantastic, clean environment, and the dresses were very unique and beautiful. I absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a formal dress, they will have my business in the future! read more

Very kind workers but very very expensive! They ask you a budget when booking, but do not help you look and when they did pull dresses, they did not care to look at prices. A little understaffed and took a while to get situated with an employee helping. The workers were very kind though. Big selection, but not any unique dresses. read more

I seriously can't rave about this place enough!! Joy and Joel make you feel like family from the moment you walk in. They are so welcoming and genuine, and they truly care about their customers!

Long story short I walk into this place lady asked me what I was looking for I told her a navy blue dress. She then stated you don't look happy to be here. She asked for my price range as I told her she told my niece don't touch the dress please I don't want you to make it dark. Mmm are you implying her hands are dirty? ( Mind you my niece & sister in law were just touching the material of the dress was all). She showed me a dress and stated her cheapest was $149. Also it was super ugly and super plus size.( I know I'm thick) I told her no I've seen the same one else where and I'll just look around. She kept looking at me up n down as I wouldn't fit in anything and asked if she can take my measurements I said no. She stated I have a catalog would you like to look at I said no. I'm fine with looking around. She then said well we might not have your size or color. I said I know what I'm looking for. She then stated I know what's in my store I bought them all. And she would not let me look around. Mind you all three of us are in workouts clothes.( Didn't realize how I look shows how much money we had) I felt like the scene on Selena when they were trying on the dresses. I have money and will drop more than you think. I just didn't want to. She kept implying the sizes and prices like it was an issue. I walked out after 10 min said I'm done this is ridiculous fuck this place. Rude and horrible customer service. On the website shows 5 stars but she was not worth 5 stars poor customer service!. I have friends and family that stated the same issue with them trying to look around. read more

Joy, the owner, will make sure you end up with the dress you want. Whatever it takes. Beautiful dresses in all price and size points. The only reason for the 4-star is the dressing rooms which could be more upscale and more than just a curtain across the opening on the side of the main showroom. But I'd return if I needed another dress. read more
