    Wedding recessional. I was jamming to Empire State of Mind

    I said yes to my dress at Adrienne's!! And I said yes to my alterations and my dress cleaning/preservation there too. I do love versatile and one-stop-shop businesses So bit of a backstory: I first went shopping for my Nov 2023 wedding dress in October of 2022. Adrienne's was the second bridal shop I went to after going to a local David's Bridal. I was there for a Lillian West trunk show. I actually almost said yes to a Lillian West dress sample at the time, but after mulling over it, I decided that I had more than enough time for my wedding, so I actually walked away from the dress. Which is fine, wasn't the right one for me in the end. I went dress shopping at 2-3 other bridal shops (and made multiple trips back to previous shops) before somehow, I found myself back at Adrienne's again in February of 2023 for another trunk show. I think it was one of Justin Alexander's cheaper lines. Anyway, at that point, I was a little jaded with dress shopping. And I had changed my dress vision too. I had originally wanted a simple A-line gown, but now I was dead-set on getting an affordable ballgown with sleeves and lace. Yeah, I put myself in a tough situation, for sure. And I was running out of time. During my appointment, I remember being stuck between an affordable but less fancy ballgown option (less than $1200) and a less affordable but fancy ballgown option (full retail price is more than $2200). But Maryann worked her magic and brought down the cost of the dress by a couple of hundred and threw in a veil as part of the deal. I was sold! I said yes to Martin Thornburg's 2021 Brier dress! The full train was to die for. The gown definitely wasnt exactly what I had envisioned for my day. Im not going to lie, I had a tiny bit of dress regret after getting it. Even after the discount, it was still so expensive. But when it came time to go in for my first dress alteration appointment, I put the dress on and thankfully didn't feel disappointment. Maryann worked for almost 2 hours during that initial alteration I was so worried she'd faint. Subsequent dress appointments were less time-consuming, thankfully. Maryann did a great job with the bustle and also getting the dress to fit perfectly. The bustle made me feel like Cinderella! I was a little nervous about my dress being finished on time, as it was peak wedding season. But Maryann delivered, for sure. Tbh I didn't bother checking around NYC for other alteration places, as wedding dresses are kind of ridiculously hard to carry around. Maryann does offer a max cap of $795 on all alterations. I think this is a pretty good deal for a ballgown as lacey and full as mine. Maryann had the dress all steamed and packed up when I went to pick up the dress. When I wore the dress on my wedding day, the dress wasn't wrinkled or anything and it looked great. I got many compliments (especially on the cathedral length train). I also do love that Maryann also offers cleaning and preservation of dresses to her brides as well at an affordable price ($300). I took a lot of outdoor pictures so the train of my dress was pretty dirty. And because of my shoes (stiletto heels) some of the underlayer tulle was torn as well. But Maryann helps with that too. Overall, Im really glad I went to Adrienne's for my dress. Her dress selection is good and the location was pretty accessible to me as well. Maryann juggles so much in her personal life, but she always goes the extra mile for her brides every time.

    Maryann was absolutely wonderful to work with! Not only did I find the PERFECT wedding dress at Adrienne's, but she did a wonderful job tailoring the dress. I could only come in once as I was living in CA at the time and she was able to perfectly tailor the dress without multiple fittings. She is incredibly talented and kind. I could not speak more highly of my experience!

    I'm sad that all of my wedding preparation is over because I will miss working with Maryann. When it was all said and done she felt like family. I bought my wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses from Adrienne's and they were all so beautiful. When I first started looking for a dress I was planning on having an outdoor wedding so I decided on a simple no-frills gown that was beautiful but not really me. By the time I came back to find dresses for my bridesmaids, I had a whole new venue and realized that I was not happy with the dress I originally chose. Maryann allowed me to change my dress although I already placed an order. That meant so much to me because I wanted to walk down the aisle in something that made me feel like I was glowing. Side note, I strongly encourage you to have your venue set and preferred style before you start shopping for a dress because that will help you pick your perfect dress the first time. There is no guarantee that you will be able to change your dress last minute and you risk getting hit with late fees. I loved that every time I came to try on my dress Maryann would let me strut in it for a bit. I would look in the mirror, dance in it, try on my veil and just imagine myself on that day. Each time, I fell more and more in love with the dress. During the first fitting, I decided that I wanted a slit in my dress and she worked with my stylist to figure out the best place to put it. I picked up my dress the day before the wedding so that I wouldn't wrinkle it before the big day and it was flawless. I highly recommend Adrienne's!

    Space to contemplate being a dream come true bride.

    My daughter's matron of honor led us to Adrienne's because the shop carried a few of the designers my daughter had on her list. As we made our way there on a freezing Sunday afternoon, I was questioning whether there could really be a special bridal shop on Orchard Street. I thought all the bridal shops were all Uptown or near David's Bridal. I was a rookie at the whole Mother of the Bride mode of operation, but I thought I knew the city. So, I walked along Orchard Street feeling a bit jaded; expecting my daughter and her best friend to point to a knock off store or a 2nd floor showroom. I was delighted when I saw Adrienne's window display, the dresses, the hats, the accessories and the inviting Manhattan boutique style shop. We weren't greeted with champagne or by a receptionist. We came in out of the cold to be personally greeted by Mary Ann, the owner. We had a personal appointment with her and she was ready for us. Her boutique felt intimate and very feminine -- like a bedroom with exposed brick and warm lights and lovely textures and everything bridal. I loved that Mary Ann wasn't a place that was a constant buzz of sales people, customers, rush hour fitting rooms and a cross-section of multiple bridal party chatter. The one on one with Mary Ann was a real thing.

    I went to Adrienne's only a month before my wedding date. Maryann was kind and accommodating. She finished my dress on time and did an amazing job. I loved my dress. And her price is reasonable!

    Ridiculous.. let it also be known that Maryann offered to pin the dress to try to close the sale. My mother had not yet committed.

    Before I begin, Carol the original sales woman who helped my mother was very kind, patient, and helpful. It is a shame that other people in a workplace can completely overshadow what could have been a good experience and deter others from shopping there.. I am in utter disbelief of the poor customer service that ensued after we tried to cancel my mother's order WITHIN the guidelines of their contract. According to their contract you can make a cancellation for a full refund if you are not purchasing a brides dress, and if you cancel within 24 hours. If you purchase a brides dress and cancel within the 24 hours you must still pay a $100 cancellation fee... totally fine. My mother (not a bride) put a deposit down and cancelled within 24 hours. Maryann then writes us an email stating that they spent 2.5 hours with her and that she is responsible for the payment of $100. What? Not only is that no where in the contract but she is completely trying to take advantage. Talk about being a thief! I have worked in retail for 18 years. You win some and lose some. True retail professionals know it is a part of the industry you accept, that you may very well spend a lot of time with someone and lose the sale anyway. The client does not pay UNLESS you have a consultation fee which they absolutely do not have. My mother is non confrontational and tried to negotiate it down to $60. However this is not for negotiation. We will not negotiate with someone to give us back money that is ours, and have already taken steps to dispute the charge. Businesses are taken to court everyday for these things. It is so unfortunate that places like these exist and are the very reason why people don't like to shop and do not trust sales people. So dishonest, and unprofessional. I suggest shopping elsewhere.

    I had a great experience purchasing my bridal gown from Adrienne's Bridal almost 5 years ago. Mary Ann (the owner) personally helped me and she pretty much closed down her boutique for me for about 2 hours on my first appt. The boutique was small but she had beautiful selection of dresses. I fell in love with the 2nd dress I tried on. My sister & I both started crying and I knew it was the one. It was a beautiful Jim Helm dress. Adrienne was very kind and made the entire process easy. Came back for my fitting and everything turned out perfectly. The top part of my dress was straight and she altered it to a soft sweet heart shape. I also purchase a hand beaded belt and a short veil that perfectly matched the belt. Highly recommended. My bridesmaids also purchased their dresses at Adriennne's and they were beautiful.

    Unfortunately I had a very poor experience here and will not be back…read more For starters you have to enter a fabric shop and descend the stairs in the back of the shop to get to where they do the alterations. The place to change was simply a thin black fabric sheet that was nearly see through strung up next to the water heater/furnace. Needless to say this made me very weary of changing knowing there were many men in the shop just on the other side of the curtain. I had a bridesmaid dress that needed to be hemmed and brought it in without bothering to bring the high heels I intended to wear with it because I was experiencing some foot swelling and they wouldn't have fit my foot at the time to begin with. I immediately addressed this with the person marking the dress and told them my heels were about 4 inches high so to please add on an additional 3- 3 1/2 inches to the height indicated so the dress would still be floor length when I wear the heels. The communication between myself and the person marking the dress was extremely clear and there were even written notes indicating the extra length to be kept on the dress. I was surprised by the price for the hemming, but they justified the dress was 3 layers and I had to pay prior to them doing the work and they even asked for a tip upfront too! I left the shop confident everything would turn out as expected, as I assumed the high price would guarantee a job well done. Within a week the dress was ready for pickup and I check the seems before leaving, but do not bother trying on the dress as I trusted they did exactly as we had agreed upon. The seems did not look very nice to me, a touch sloppy and wasn't completely straight, but at the end of the day I knew no one else would be looking closely so I accepted the dress and left. I tried on the dress at home only to find out it was even shorter than where the markings were during the fitting! Even flat-footed without any shoes on, the dress did not touch the ground. It was a disaster once I put my intended high heels on and it was the equivalent of high-waters but with a dress. In a panic I text or email them and even provide photos. They say I could bring it back, but by that point I only had a few days before the wedding and even if they let out the seems, one inch of fabric was not enough when it was missing at least 3 inches! They did go so far as to offering to purchase me another dress and to redo the hemming which I do think was above and beyond in attempting to make it right, but the dress was a special order color and there was no way to get another one in time. I finally spoke to the bride who just didn't want to risk the dress getting more messed up and asked to keep it as-is and the final resolution I received from the business was just a vague offer to discount a future service, no offer to even partially refund me for the poor work that had already been paid for. I ended up having to wear some much lower shoes and just bend my legs a bit in the photos so my dress looked the same length as the other bridesmaids. Overall my experience here was poor and I wouldn't want to risk another special occasion garment coming out not as expected. With so many other shops offering alterations in the area for a similar or cheaper price point I would choose another place.

    Went here a few months ago to get some suits tailored. Tailor job was good, but the service was…read moresome of the worst I've ever experienced and that alone is enough to make sure I never go back. When I dropped my things off, I was told it would be ready and given a range of days to pick it up. I went by the last day in the pickup range, and not everything was ready yet. I grabbed the stuff that was and asked when my last article would be ready. They again gave me a pickup date. I came by on the second pickup date and the suit was still not ready. I was never notified that the timeframe had changed or anything, they just let me show up and wasted my time twice in a row.
