Great bridal boutique, great selection When planning my wedding this was my favorite bridal boutique!! This store has a great selection of wedding dresses at great prices. They also have a huge selection of bridesmaid dresses. They had many different designers of both wedding gowns and BM dresses. The staff (except for the owner) are all so helpful and really make your experience there a nice one. I had been to other stores, but loved the selection here. Watch out for the store owner though, she is very difficult and had my ... read more

The Worst This is the WORST bridal store in Old Town. Ellie is very rude. I cannot believe she is still in business! When you are going to spend money for a dress, a bride wants personal attention. It will not happen at Ellie's! Go somewhere else.

Run in the other direction!!! WORST SERVICE EVER!! We had an appointment to find bridesmaids dresses. The entire time we were there we had to track down someone to assist us. There were well over 5 employees. There was a bride doing a fitting and our party of 5. While attempting to try on dresses two girls who clearly did not have an appointment received more assistance than we did. We left here fast and went to Katherine's bridal on Duke st. We did not have an appointment yet they accomadated us despite having a bridal fitt... read more

Very pleasant place to shop for brides.. Ellies bridal is a very nice place to shop for bridal dresses. I accompanied my best friend to shop for her wedding dress here. They had beautiful dresses but not a wide variety. We couldnt find what we wanted. The staff there was very friendly and not pushy. Recommended because they were very friendly and pleasant to shop, even though we couldnt find the dress we wanted.

NO stars if I could My new fiancee and I were grossly mistreated at this shop. After explaining to the sweet girl working at the desk that we did not have an appointment because we had just gotten engaged, were planning on having the wedding very soon, and the area we wanted to purchase a dress in the area because the selection where we live is less than impressive, she happily allowed me to use a back room to try on the dresses. We thanked her repeatedly and wholeheartedly. She has made me never want to dress shop again. If... read more

Brides and Bridesmaids Beware! Brides and bridesmaids beware!! This is not the shop for you. I ordered a dress from this shop on June 1st for a wedding on July 19th, paid $50 extra for supposedly "super rush shipping" and did not recieve my dress until July 12th, exactly one week before the wedding. To top it all off, when I went to pick up my dress I was totally ignored by the ignorant and untrained staff at the shop and there was noone to whom I could voice a complaint. If that isn't enough to make you reconsider shopping ... read more

Avoid - Heartless merchant! "I have trouble giving this business even one star. My caution here is be sure about the dress you buy here and that your wedding is a definite one. Why? Because ALL SALES ARE FINAL!!!!! I bought a dress and paid 1/2 that day in June. It went from the manikin, to a bag, and then to the store's storage room since my wedding wasn't going to be until December. My fiance is a military chaplain. He was to deploy in March but then it got moved up to December. We cancelled our big wedding, hence no need ... read more

The Owner is the worst.... I got my dress from Ellie's and worked with Marie who was great; however, every encounter I had with the owner, Ellie, was TERRIBLE. There was a spot on my dress when it first came in and 4-5 other people at the store recognized it and said they would clean it, then Ellie comes over and says she can't see it. Obviously, she was lying and Marie (as well as my mother and a bunch of other people) showed her specifically where the spot was. They cleaned it and it was fine. Then after I picked up the dr... read more

So Disappointed! Don't think for a second that if you have an appointment, you will be of any importance. Apparently scheduling time out of your day does not matter to the owner and staff at Ellie's Bridal. The other bridesmaids, bride and myself made an appointment to try on bridesmaid dresses. Now, I understand that this isn't as important of an event as the bride and her dress, but I think it merits a little more than, "my name is **** and you'll have to turn the store upside-down to find me if you need assistance." In re... read more
