We had the best first experience I could have ever imagined. Daisy went above and beyond finding my perfect style, that was UNDER my budget, and she made sure my overall happiness above all was reached & exceeded. I cannot say enough good things about Daisy & the whole team. I found my wedding dress, and I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life. The whole process was seamless, effortlessly beautiful & so fun. I truly owe my first experience being such a positive one to Daisy. THANK YOU EVERYONE AT LUV BRIDAL.

I was a little overwhelmed because I was still having an out of body experience even being a bride. That is where Daisy comes in. She IMMEDIATELY helped me clock exactly what I wanted in the simplest terms: she said "face and waist". Mind you, I'm a type C type of bride-- so I'm the type to like EVERYTHING I try on lol. But, I loved her first pick for me, she gave me everything I wanted and more. Even my best friend wanted to try on gowns with me that is how good Daisy is at her job. Honestly, I cannot recommend this place enough-- they will work with your budget and shop with your wallet in mind. Also, with this place being in DTLA, there is parking in the back, so you do not have to try to find street parking. TL;DR: if you are shopping for your dress and want someone to read your mind or even translate your dress dreams into reality, go to Daisy. She knew everything I wanted and THEN some. She even had me trying things out of my comfort zone that I loved. 10/10 would recommend.

I visited Royal Accessories with my family looking for bridal accessories. When we arrived, there…read morewere two employees helping customers, one Asian woman and one Latina woman. Since the Asian employee was busy, the Latina employee initially helped us. However, when two other customers walked in, the Latina employee stopped assisting us and focused on them instead. We were left waiting without anyone acknowledging us or checking if we needed help. It felt like the other customers were receiving much better service. I had already tried on a couple of hair pieces and didn't want to remove them myself because I was afraid of damaging them, so I waited for someone to assist me. Once the Asian employee finished with her customer, I asked for help. She was kind, patient, and helped me choose a hair piece. I had also planned to purchase earrings, but after the experience, I decided not to. I ended up purchasing only the hair piece. While the quality was nice, I personally found the items to be overpriced. A funny part of the experience was that the customers the Latina employee left us for didn't end up buying anything, despite her providing them with much better customer service than she provided us. I don't know why our experience was so different, but it honestly made me wonder if she had judged us based on appearances because we weren't given the same level of attention or courtesy. If you're shopping with a budget under $100, this may not be the right place for you, and it could save you time to shop elsewhere. Unfortunately, the lack of acknowledgment and inconsistent customer service left a bad impression. Because of that, I don't plan on returning.

Horrible experience from the moment I walked in…read more My mom and I walked in smiling, excited for my bridal appointment. Instead of being welcomed, the front desk staff laughed, and one of them asked, "What are you doing here?" I replied, "I have an appointment," and they all laughed again. Looking back, I should have walked out then, but I decided to give them a chance. I was told I had to wait because no one was available to help me, even though there were four staff members standing at the front. I was told to look through the racks for dresses while I waited. Since it was my first time shopping for a wedding dress, I didn't know the process. Later, I noticed signs everywhere saying not to walk through the aisles, so my mom and I stood to the side and waited. After about 20 minutes, someone finally came to help us. She immediately asked which dresses I wanted to try on. I explained that I had no idea because this was my first bridal appointment and I was hoping for some guidance. She seemed visibly annoyed. She pulled a few dresses, and one of them was absolutely beautiful--I genuinely loved it. However, the overall attitude made me uncomfortable. At one point, she told me the dress was around $5,000 and then asked, "Can you afford it?" I replied, "Yes, I can." After that, I noticed other staff members gathering around and suddenly walking by to compliment how beautiful the dress looked on me. It felt very insincere. Even though I loved the dress, I decided not to purchase it. Buying a wedding dress is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I didn't feel confident moving forward with a boutique where I felt unwelcome and judged. I politely ended my appointment and left. As I was walking out, I heard one of the employees say, "I told you they weren't going to buy it." That confirmed I had made the right decision. Thankfully, I found my dream dress at a wonderful bridal boutique in Costa Mesa, where I was treated with kindness, respect, and genuine excitement. The difference in customer service was night and day. Every bride deserves to feel welcomed, supported, and celebrated. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here.

The moment I met Angel she made me feel so comfortable and never pressured to purchase from her. My friends and I browsed in her shop until I found my dream dress that she designed. She took my measures and created a gorgeous bridal gown and veil. I am still getting compliments to this day. My dress was affordable but custom and nothing I have seen before! Also she gives you free alterations which I'm grateful for because I lost alot of unexpected weight due to the wedding planning process. Angel is a very busy woman so occasionally she was slow to respond to calls and messages. Besides that I can honestly say I'm so glad I chose Lucky Brides.

The end product was satisfactory, but not without several mistakes and unnecessary stress. Be prepared to be on TOP of the associates as the communication is nonexistent otherwise. While Angel was lovely, her sales associates need training. I wish I could have corresponded with Angel directly, as her associates seemed to not know what was going on/did not communicate. On 8/31/24, I said yes to the dress after having exhausted 6-7 bridal shops in Phoenix. I finally felt a sense of relief. I paid in FULL that day. I signed the paperwork for my dress to be ready in March 2025, two months before my wedding. The next steps were for Yesenia to send a sketch of my dress based on the designs I wanted, within a few weeks. I waited several weeks and when I didn't get anything, I reached out to Enoch (who is no longer with them). He assured me he would get on Yesenia to send the sketch. I didn't get A sketch until 11/20/24, nearly 3 months after I had already paid for my dress, and it wasn't even a sketch of my dress! I didn't get a sketch of MY dress until 11/25/24 and it looked like something she drew in 5 minutes. Very anticlimactic. After A LOT of back and forth on the finer details, I asked if the dress was ready to START production on 12/5/24. I received no response. I sent another email on 12/9/24, no response. I finally booked a flight to LA and SHOWED UP IN PERSON on 12/14 and Yesenia looked surprised to see me. She stated that she had responded production had already started on my dress, and she had sent an email but it must not have gone through. OKAY. I started emailing her again in February asking about the status of my dress: 2/3, 2/15, 2/22, 3/1. 3/1 Yesenia stated she would send me photos of my dress and book my first fitting. She never did send me photos of my dress. I had my first fitting on 3/16/25. I was expecting for all my fittings and the dress to be finalized by this point, but I was just happy there was a dress at all. The leg slit I had asked to be on the right side, was on the left side instead. Because of the way the dress was designed, it could not easily be fixed. They did not apologize for the error at any point. They did offer to REMAKE the dress, however, with my wedding less than 2 months away (5/8/25) and the TERRIBLE communication, I did not want to take that stress or risk. I had also asked for pearl buttons on the overskirt but received satin buttons. Yesenia replied that production had responded on 2/24 (to her) that pearls cost extra; at no point had she communicated this to me. She stated she would have them swapped out for the pearl buttons. On 3/27/25, I sent all the photos of the details I wanted for my veil to Yesenia. Admittedly, there were a lot of details- I wanted a cathedral veil, scallop trim with beaded edge, and for our names and the date to be embroidered. Knowing my wedding date, and that I had to leave the COUNTRY at the beginning of May, Yesenia could have prefaced that all these details would take a month+ to make- but she never stated any sort of time frame. In April, I asked if the original alterations were completed on my dress. Lots of unanswered texts. I had my 2nd fitting on 4/26, the WEEKEND before I was leaving the COUNTRY for my wedding. Luckily the dress came together, even though the leg slit was wrong. The veil was not ready for me to take home that day. Yesenia stated she could have it shipped for $8 or next day shipping for $33. I stated that I would not be paying for shipping over text, and I reiterated this again during the 2nd fitting. She agreed to wave the cost. The veil shipped on 4/28 and I received it on 4/30, a mere 3 days before leaving the country. Luckily the veil was beautiful, albeit the embroidery was smaller than I expected- but everything was spelled correctly (a point I reiterated multiple times via text). At the end of the day, everything turned out OKAY but it certainly was unnecessarily stressful and unenjoyable. I didn't have the dress of my dreams (because of the leg slit on the wrong side- and I didn't utilize the leg slit on the left side) which is crushing when you're promised it and PAYING for it. I don't recommend Lucky Brides for your peace of mind.

I was looking for a certain dress by David Tutera and was having a hard time with rude vendors and over priced sales... This store came recommended. I checked out all of the reviews and so far so good:) So... I decided to call the store and asked to speak with the owner Johnnie, who was extremely knowledgeable and courteous! He confidently answered all my questions, and I began to lose the frustration and anxiety that had been building up:) Mind you, I had to drive two hours to a destination unknown, reviews or not. Honestly though, the feeling I got told me it'd be worth it. So my friend and I paid for parking, and got to the store. The area is in downtown la, which I hadn't heard good things about. Didn't matter bc, Johnnie and his lovely sales associates made us feel super comfortable upon arrival! Everything after that was smooth sailing. I was able to make an affordable deposit and even got fitted for a smaller size than prior fittings! It was easy, and the feeling of excitement came rushing back! I would recommend this place to any bride bc they will work with your budget instead of up selling. Lifesavers they are! I'll be back next week with my bridesmaids!! I said yes to the dress!!!!!;)) Thank you, Modern Bride!!!;)) read more

I love this place! Everyone here is so helpful and honest when you ask them their opinion. They listen to what your concerns are, what you are looking for in your dream wedding dress, and make helpful suggestions/options of dress styles. I told them a rough idea of what I was looking for and to be frank I am an indecisive person, but they are so patient and quickly brought plenty of options based on my very vague vision of my dream wedding dress. I quickly fell in love with a Justin Alexander dress. Luckily for me, the actual designer was in the store and it was his last day there when I came and if I had not come sooner the dress of my dreams was not going to be there!! They even texted me when my wedding dress was ready to pick up. When I came to pick up my dress, the veil that I had purchased was made incorrectly, but they handled the situation so professionally. They knew I live far away from them so they offered to mail it out to me free of charge and texted me when they had mailed it out to my address and when it came it was beautiful! I can't thank them enough for everything they did for me and I am so excited to show it off on my wedding day!!! read more

I purchased my wedding dress here, and I am really glad I did. I had stopped here with my sister when I was visiting LA. We didn't have a ton of time but they were quick, friendly, helpful, and knew their stuff. They made a lasting impression. I continued dress shopping in Oregon and tried on a multitude of dresses. When I had finally decided on the dress I knew I was going to get the best deal and care from Modern Bride. Even months later, they remembered me and knew what style I was looking for. They helped me decide on the color and then shipped the dress up to Oregon for free. It arrived faster than I was expecting and when I tried it on it fit. great Every thing from beginning to end was handled expertly with care and quickness. If I needed to buy another dress I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from Modern Bride again. read more

Johnnie and his team were exceptional. This was the first dress store I went to and while small, still had a great selection of designer gowns. They had lots of great options, from princess to form fitting, from lace to tulle, from long sleeve to strapless, they had it all. The team was super patient working with me to find my dream dress and I'm so lucky I did! Not to mention, the price was exceptional. I work in procurement so I definitely did my due diligence and Johnnie gave me a great deal. Throughout the whole process, the Modern Bride team helped with the purchase, the alterations, and even gave me a lace face mask to match my dress. I would 100% recommend Modern Bride.

I am writing this review because I am genuinely disappointed by my experience and want to warn…read moreothers before they spend their time and money here. On 5/25/26 at approximately 2:30 PM, I attended this business for an appointment. The first employee assisting me, a woman with light/blonde textured hair, immediately came across as rushed, impatient, and frankly uninterested in providing decent customer service. The interaction felt cold and uncomfortable. Despite the poor experience, I decided to give the business another chance because I truly wanted to see whether they carried the dress I had been looking for. I scheduled a second appointment hoping things would improve. Unfortunately, they did not. I returned on 5/26/26 at 2:30 PM and was assisted by a different employee, a woman with short black hair. While she may not have intended to be outright rude, she was far from helpful or welcoming. From the beginning, the atmosphere felt tense and oddly accusatory. She repeatedly expressed concern about dresses being damaged and made comments implying customers could ruin merchandise if not supervised. Most uncomfortable of all, she insisted on remaining inside or extremely close to the dressing room area during the fitting process. I completely understand businesses protecting their inventory. That is reasonable. However, there is a professional, respectful way to do that without making paying customers feel distrusted, monitored, or like they are somehow a problem before they've done anything wrong. The overall tone of the appointment felt less like dress shopping and more like being watched under suspicion. Shopping for an important dress should be exciting, welcoming, and memorable for the right reasons. Instead, I left feeling dissatisfied, uncomfortable, and honestly horrified by how awkward and unprofessional the experience had become. I have visited many boutiques and bridal/formalwear establishments where staff manage expensive inventory professionally while still treating customers with kindness, dignity, and warmth. There is a clear difference between attentive service and hovering, dismissive behavior. At the end of the day, I learned a lesson: sometimes the "discount" is simply not worth sacrificing customer service and professionalism. I would personally recommend considering a reputable boutique instead, where employees understand hospitality, communication, and how to make customers feel valued rather than inconvenienced. This experience left me disappointed, and I hope management takes customer feedback seriously because there is significant room for improvement in professionalism, training, and overall client treatment.

She always made me feel comfortable and at ease, and she gave me such thoughtful words of wisdom about the dress and the wedding day itself. That kind of personal attention made the entire experience even more special. If you are planning a wedding and shopping for your dress, Bella Wedding absolutely needs to be one of your stops and I have a feeling it may be your last. The level of bridal support, knowledge, and service here is something special. They have truly refined their craft, and you can tell they know exactly what they are doing and most importantly they love doing it. Chloe and her mom are the ultimate wedding dress duo. I'm so grateful that Chloe was the person who helped me that first day and that Bella Wedding became part of such an important experience in my life. Thank you Ladies!!!

From the moment we walked in, they were warm, friendly, and so incredibly helpful. We were in a bit of a time crunch and needed a dress on short notice, and they not only helped us find the *perfect* dress, but they also tailored it *the same day*! The dress was stunning, the service was outstanding, and the entire experience felt truly special. Jesse gave us a fantastic deal and made what could have been a stressful situation feel easy and even fun. I can't recommend Steven's Bridal enough -- they're a gem in every way. Thank you for making this such a wonderful memory! Thank you Steven's Bridal- (Jesse) May God continue to bless your business!! Pleasure doing business with you.

PLEASE BEWARE!! Scammers and liars! WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!…read more DO NOT TRUST THIS PLACE! Please note My review is my honest experience & I pray nobody else goes through this. I have my receipt for proof of purchase & pictures to prove my claims. 1. Make sure everything they promise you is WRITTEN on your invoice the day you order your dress , otherwise they will say it's not included! (Ex. Dress back Bow) 2. Dresses don't take more than 4 weeks to get there! They say it's longer 3-5 mos just to pressure you to buy & order asap! 3. Our Dress came in different than the floor sample (color hue & design, cheap quality) 4. Make sure you ask to see the Tailor the day of your dress fitting! (Tailor informed me that ALL DRESSES NEED some Tailoring no matter what!) 5. Make sure you thoroughly INSPECT your dress from the inside out before leaving the store w/ the dress! (Loose strings, loose flowers, stains, uneven fabrics) Once you leave the store with the dress they will try to refuse any complaints about the dress you didn't catch the day you took it home! 6. This business (Steven's Bridal & Boutique) is not registered with the state of CA or LA County. Your payments are made to an individual (Steven Acevedo) and not a business. Ask to see ID of the individual you are making $$$ payments ! My daughters Quince Dress had loose & miss placed flowers, stains, loose strings & jewels, very poorly made overall! Not worth the price! They gave us a "used floor sample bow" because they didn't make one new for her dress. The day of her fitting they didn't bother steaming the dress first. Took it out of the shipping box on the spot super wrinkled. Everyone here is very unprofessional. Don't trust this place overall!

When I bought the dress the owner bragged about how his dresses were one of a kind and only his store was the only one that carried nice dresses - hence the outrageous price of dresses. Well guess what buddy, you're wrong and rude. The dress I bought was triple the price than at a store a few doors down. The funny part was that the owner wouldn't believe that another store carried the same dress because his was one of a kind until I showed him a photo. Then he had nothing else to say. Furthermore, I used his tailor to take in my dress and hem it a bit. BIG MISTAKE. First of all, for DTLA, he charged an arm and a leg. Second, when I went in for my fitting, the dress they altered for me was so tight I couldn't breathe. When I brought it up to the owner he swore they never even took it in, in that area. I could see the stitches in the dress!!!! The seamstress eventually came by and she confirmed she did take it in. Doubting your customer is just bad customer service.... Anyway, my point is this place has horrible customer service and clearly their main intention is to rip people off and be rude about it. I just think if you're going to rip someone off, at least be nice, right?

The moment I met Angel she made me feel so comfortable and never pressured to purchase from her. My friends and I browsed in her shop until I found my dream dress that she designed. She took my measures and created a gorgeous bridal gown and veil. I am still getting compliments to this day. My dress was affordable but custom and nothing I have seen before! Also she gives you free alterations which I'm grateful for because I lost alot of unexpected weight due to the wedding planning process. Angel is a very busy woman so occasionally she was slow to respond to calls and messages. Besides that I can honestly say I'm so glad I chose Lucky Brides.

The end product was satisfactory, but not without several mistakes and unnecessary stress. Be prepared to be on TOP of the associates as the communication is nonexistent otherwise. While Angel was lovely, her sales associates need training. I wish I could have corresponded with Angel directly, as her associates seemed to not know what was going on/did not communicate. On 8/31/24, I said yes to the dress after having exhausted 6-7 bridal shops in Phoenix. I finally felt a sense of relief. I paid in FULL that day. I signed the paperwork for my dress to be ready in March 2025, two months before my wedding. The next steps were for Yesenia to send a sketch of my dress based on the designs I wanted, within a few weeks. I waited several weeks and when I didn't get anything, I reached out to Enoch (who is no longer with them). He assured me he would get on Yesenia to send the sketch. I didn't get A sketch until 11/20/24, nearly 3 months after I had already paid for my dress, and it wasn't even a sketch of my dress! I didn't get a sketch of MY dress until 11/25/24 and it looked like something she drew in 5 minutes. Very anticlimactic. After A LOT of back and forth on the finer details, I asked if the dress was ready to START production on 12/5/24. I received no response. I sent another email on 12/9/24, no response. I finally booked a flight to LA and SHOWED UP IN PERSON on 12/14 and Yesenia looked surprised to see me. She stated that she had responded production had already started on my dress, and she had sent an email but it must not have gone through. OKAY. I started emailing her again in February asking about the status of my dress: 2/3, 2/15, 2/22, 3/1. 3/1 Yesenia stated she would send me photos of my dress and book my first fitting. She never did send me photos of my dress. I had my first fitting on 3/16/25. I was expecting for all my fittings and the dress to be finalized by this point, but I was just happy there was a dress at all. The leg slit I had asked to be on the right side, was on the left side instead. Because of the way the dress was designed, it could not easily be fixed. They did not apologize for the error at any point. They did offer to REMAKE the dress, however, with my wedding less than 2 months away (5/8/25) and the TERRIBLE communication, I did not want to take that stress or risk. I had also asked for pearl buttons on the overskirt but received satin buttons. Yesenia replied that production had responded on 2/24 (to her) that pearls cost extra; at no point had she communicated this to me. She stated she would have them swapped out for the pearl buttons. On 3/27/25, I sent all the photos of the details I wanted for my veil to Yesenia. Admittedly, there were a lot of details- I wanted a cathedral veil, scallop trim with beaded edge, and for our names and the date to be embroidered. Knowing my wedding date, and that I had to leave the COUNTRY at the beginning of May, Yesenia could have prefaced that all these details would take a month+ to make- but she never stated any sort of time frame. In April, I asked if the original alterations were completed on my dress. Lots of unanswered texts. I had my 2nd fitting on 4/26, the WEEKEND before I was leaving the COUNTRY for my wedding. Luckily the dress came together, even though the leg slit was wrong. The veil was not ready for me to take home that day. Yesenia stated she could have it shipped for $8 or next day shipping for $33. I stated that I would not be paying for shipping over text, and I reiterated this again during the 2nd fitting. She agreed to wave the cost. The veil shipped on 4/28 and I received it on 4/30, a mere 3 days before leaving the country. Luckily the veil was beautiful, albeit the embroidery was smaller than I expected- but everything was spelled correctly (a point I reiterated multiple times via text). At the end of the day, everything turned out OKAY but it certainly was unnecessarily stressful and unenjoyable. I didn't have the dress of my dreams (because of the leg slit on the wrong side- and I didn't utilize the leg slit on the left side) which is crushing when you're promised it and PAYING for it. I don't recommend Lucky Brides for your peace of mind.

However, when we arrived, neither employee greeted or acknowledged us. We approached one of the employees, who was not assisting anyone at the time, and explained our quinceañera theme and the color dress we were looking for. Her response was simply, "Okay," with little interest or enthusiasm. Throughout our visit, there was no customer service, guidance, or excitement to help us find the perfect dress. I eventually had to ask if we could try on dresses, and was then told that we could not because appointments were required. We were informed that we could only try on one "courtesy" dress, which contradicted the information we had received when we called ahead. The lack of communication, customer service, and overall welcoming atmosphere left us feeling disappointed. We were excited to shop for such a special occasion, but unfortunately, the experience felt negative and unhelpful.

What a joke, I'm not wasting over an hour to drive there to find out these veils are overpriced then have to make the long drive back home.
