Ellies is the Worst! Ellie's was a BIG mistake, I had a bad feeling about it from the start, but decided to trust them since it is a small store. I ordered my dress in December for my August wedding, at that time they said it would arrive in May, which is what I needed to happen as I was designing a custom jacket to go with the dress and needed it as soon as possible. Mid May, I had heard nothing from them and decided to call. The women who answered the phone, who could hardly speak English, told me that my dress was not shi... read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!! Ellie's Bridal has the worst service!!! I had made two appointments at different times. One to look around and then one to try on a dress that I liked at the first appt. My experience those two times were okay, the lady who helped me was helpful and nice. Then I went recently to look at their bridesmaids dresses without an appointment and one of the ladies was extremely rude. I think she was the owner of the shop. We walked in and the lady that had helped me a couple of weeks ago was nice and said hello and... read more

Disappointed in Ellie's Buying a wedding dress at Ellie's was a mistake. They were very friendly and helpful BEFORE the sale. After the sale I guess they think you are stuck. The gown did not fit at all. They kept making empty promises that the seamstress would fix it. She didn't. Three days before the wedding I realized it would never look good. Everyone told me it looked "fine," but who wants to look FINE on her wedding day? They even had the nerve to tell me to hide the flaws behind my bouquet. Well I just got my pictures... read more

Go to shop with Ellie's Ellie's bridal is a friendly and neat place to shop. they were helpful and understanding when my fiance and I decided to change a wedding date (we are in the army). Marie got my dress for 2 weeks only because the company has in stock my size. It was wonderful and pleasant experience. Special thanks to Sylvia - a seamstress, she is professional. Go to shop with Ellie's. Good luck!

Marie is great, the rest of the experience not so much As with most of the other reviews on this website, yes the store is cramped and full of dresses, yes Marie is WONDERFUL, yes the alterations leave a lot to be desired (somehow my dress ended up with black lint inside the hem and up into the dress that wasn't there in the first place) and yes Ellie is rude (if you can even get her to talk to you), cheap and a liar. You'd think that she'd be a nicer business lady but when you think about it, being brides who hopefully only... read more

Ugh!! Just Ugh! Marie was not great. She was inattentive and basically checked out mentally during my appointment. She told me at the beginning of my appointment "that we would have to hurry up cause she was getting out of her at 6 pm today." She disappeared for 15 minutes without a word and I thought she had gone to get more dresses. Nope she was just on to something else. She did this a couple of times. Like everyone else I found the store dirty, cramped, chaotic and just unwelcoming. Just save yourself the hassle and go e... read more

Surprised I wasn't overly impressed with the selection of formal dresses or the staff. They were informative of things when you first arrived but after they told me what they needed to I didn't see them again for about 45 minutes. They didn't help me with anything. There was 2 girls working and both helping 1 girl out. It wasn't till I was getting ready to leave that they gave me any help. When I told them the dress I wanted and when I needed it by they told me they'd call the designer the following day and contact me. The g... read more

Worst Wedding Dress Shopping Experience I do not suggest that anyone buy a dress from Ellie's Bridal. There was abundance of straight pins on the floor that pricked me while I was trying on dresses. I was was blown off my one the staff when I mentioned this. Although, after shopping around they were the only store that carried the dress I found online. I did order the dress and things went further down hill from there. They didn't bustle my dress as previously agreeded upon when ordered. I had to bring it back when scheduled... read more

Ellie's is AWFUL If you are looking for a wedding dress, or any dress for that matter do yourself a favour and stay away from Ellie's Bridal Boutique located at 225 N. Washington St. Alexandria VA. They state on their website that they are a full service boutique that takes pride in it's relationships with it's brides. I experienced nothing even close to this. Two of the appointments I scheduled with them when I showed up there was nobody there. You will not be treated like a soon to be bride should be. You are treated as an... read more
