My dress arrived in the wrong color and it was too late to order a new dress. Ultimately they offered me the sample gown that I tried on six months earlier. It wasn't in the best shape and had a huge hole in the train. We had to cut the train off. They rushed the alterations. I received my dress with a jagged, uneven hem, a missing back hook, and a bust adjustment that was done through the back zipper even though it was measured and pinned by the side seams. Thankfully I found an amazing seamstress who could fix the mess but it cost another $450. I tried multiple times to talk to someone at the store about the service, but the owner never called me back. We hoped to support a local business, but sadly this experience caused serious stress and became much more expensive than promised.

Randy and Kevin Foreman are, in my opinion, the Tuxedo KINGS of Louisiana. They have decades of…read moreexperience in formal wear and their attention to detail is uncanny. They know that customers expect perfection and they strive to achieve this goal with every tuxedo that they put out. You WILL NOT leave Mary Ellen's until you are absolutely 100% satisfied with your fit. Most businesses see customers as walking dollar signs and will do anything, and say anything, to keep you from taking your business somewhere else. The motto of Mary Ellen's is "To run a successful business is based entirely on the quality of the business's customer service." When you enter Mary Ellen's, someone will walk up to you and greet you, sometimes meeting you at the door. Randy and Kevin make it a point to talk to you, find out where you're from, and if you're a regular, how you and your family are doing. Once you go to Mary Ellen's for a tuxedo, that's the only place you'll ever go. They make you feel like you're a part of their family. You are their customer and they want to keep that relationship with you always. Having been an employee at Mary Ellen's, I think people should know how hard Randy and Kevin work for your business. During Mardi Gras season, Randy and Kevin arrive at work hours before the shop is actually open to start cleaning and pressing tuxedos. They dry clean their own product right there in the store! When the store closes at 5:30pm, it's a quick dash home for all employees and then back to work, sometimes staying past 11pm at night to get garments cleaned and start pulling orders for the coming weekend. This is the regular Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday routine for these guys. On busier weeks, all employees forfeit their only day off, Sunday, to get a jump on the demanding week. This is just a small glimpse into how hard the Mary Ellen's crew works for their customers, and you can rest assured that this service will always be this consistently extraordinary.

I'm in a wedding party and all of our dresses are incredibly oversized…read more We all went here assuming the ladies who measured us would know what they're doing... but I promise you, they don't. I'm not new to formal wear. I was in pageants for a few years. I KNOW my size is a 2-4. I was told to buy an 8 that I now have to spend half the price of the dress for to get it altered. One girl in our group is a size 16 and was told to get a 22! It's costing her more to get it altered than the entire dress costed AND she had to pay an extra fee for a bigger dress size. I get maybe getting it a size bigger and altering down, but all of our dresses are at least two sizes too big. It's ridiculous. Your time and money would be better spent ordering a dress from somewhere else.

I had a very disappointing experience with this store and would strongly caution others before…read morepurchasing here. I was told my size was sold out and was advised by a sales associate to order the dress two sizes larger, with the assurance that alterations would be simple. That was not true. A professional seamstress later confirmed the dress would need to be essentially remade at a cost of $350. I raised concerns about the fit as soon as the dress came in and continued to be unhappy with how it looked, as it did not match what I had been told to expect. My seamstress contacted the store (politely, while I was present), and a manager told her an exchange would be allowed. Based on that, I made an appointment and returned to the store. When I arrived, they denied that any exchange had been approved and falsely claimed my seamstress had been rude. At that point, I was left with a dress I cannot wear due to their incorrect guidance. I ultimately had to purchase another dress elsewhere. This was not my first issue with incorrect sizing advice from this store, although a previous situation was handled appropriately. Unfortunately, this time they refused to take responsibility. Very unprofessional and disappointing experience.
