Decluttering my closet and I found my old junior and senior year prom dresses from high school that…read moreI no longer need since there was no occasion to wear them. It makes feel sad seeing such beautiful dresses just collecting dust but I saw that House of Jovelle does consigning so I went to her shop to help my dresses find a new home. You can also go on to her website and see how the process works. https://houseofjovelle.com/sell-with-us *Location & Parking* The shop is located inside a building called "Waipahu Plantation Marketplace" and parking is free for 2 hours. I entered the left side of the building glass doors, walk down straight into the hallway, then I turned left to see 'Noime's Boutique'. *Shop ambiance* When you enter you'll see that left side of the shop will be House of Jovelle and the right of side of the shop looks like is shared with other boutique vendor. Jovelle's shop is filled with a huge collection of prom, pageant, cocktail, bridal dresses! There's also a separate dresses of rental dresses but if you ended up falling in love with a dress in the rental section and you would like to own it, you may have to discuss with Jovelle with the price difference. Not only her shop specializes in dresses, there's is also a huge array of jewelry, purses, and heels to help compliment your dresses! There's even invisible bras, dress tapes, and nipple covers! Truly an one stop shop for all your formal wear needs! She has 2 huge changing rooms, just in case your wondering. *Consignment process* Jovelle warmly greeted me and I asked her if she can help me with the consigning process. She asked me where I bought the dress, dress brand's name, how much I bought it for, what's the size, and she took pictures of my prom dresses. You also discuss with her if you would like to sell or rent out your dress so I went with the rental option. After she's done documenting, she'll have you sign some digital forms on her ipad. Very easy and smooth process! 2 weeks later, Jovelle contacted me that someone bought one of my rental dresses! They loved it so much they had to own it! Which was a huge compliment for me because my dress finally found a forever home :) she sent my commission through Venmo. Thank you again Jovelle for making my experience stress free! 10/10 recommend everyone to shop here!

We worked with Olivia, and she was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, she made me feel comfortable and truly listened to what I thought I was looking for in a wedding dress. As we went through the appointment, she helped me refine my preferences and ultimately discover what I really wanted in my future wedding dress. I appreciated that she encouraged both my guest and me to pull dresses that caught our eye, while also selecting additional gowns based on what she was learning about my style. It felt very collaborative, personalized, and pressure-free. The entire experience was wonderful, and I felt genuinely well taken care of throughout the appointment. Another huge plus is that they offer dress rentals, which is a fantastic budget-friendly option for brides. 10/10 experience--highly recommend to any bride looking for a fun, comfortable, and supportive dress-shopping experience!

Unfortunately there were issues with the first dress I chose and we had to pick a second dress. It was a very difficult process and it was an emotional experience.

I highly recommend that if you get any alterations done in house that you work with Lagaya (I do not know how to spell her name- sorry) she was fantastic- she is only there on Sundays.

After learning a little backstory on tuxes and suits from Justin and realizing that we wanted the guys to really be POPPIN, we went from black tuxes to a champagne color tux for my groom and full maroon tuxes for the groomsmen. Absolutely no regrets. Photos and videos all look amazing with them. I truly appreciate Justin taking the time to educate and even push us to move away from the norm and do something more exciting which in the end really fit us best. I believe the price for tux rentals are pretty similar at most of the shops in Honolulu, and since we have no real need to keep tuxes it's a great price at $250 per. After meeting Justin, I can guarantee you we will be back again.

Let me start off by saying that the ladies who work here are literal ANGELS. They are patient,…read morekind, accommodating, and are truly there to help you find a dress that, in their owners words, "make you feel like a million bucks!" I visited Casablanca over a little less than a year ago now, and from my first visit to my very last, they were amazing. First off, don't be fooled by their smaller boutique, they have many dress options and were super accommodating on me wanting a long sleeve dress to cover my arm tattoos. They were totally non-judgemental and made me feel beautiful no matter what dress I tried on. I ended up going with a fitted mermaid style dress that was not what I expected- I originally wanted an a-line dress but somehow I fell in love with a totally different dress style. The dress was about 1-2 sizes too small, so we ordered the dress in one size up per the owner and 6 months later, my dress came in. Now, the only thing they didn't do was measure me at my first appointment, so unfortunately when the dress came in, it didn't fit me perfectly. It was definitely too tight on my arms and my chest area. They did say they could take out the dress and make alterations, but my mom felt that there wasn't enough room to let it out. They ended up calling the owner, who allowed me to look at a few new dresses that just came in while she checked if they could order my dress in another size up. Mind you, this was 3 months away from my wedding date, so I was really nervous that it wouldn't come in on time. I ended up trying on another dress closer to my original vision, a-line, long sleeve, and totally beautiful. Now this new dress was 2 sizes too big, but because of the original dress mishap, they said they would provide alterations for free! I was stunned by their kindness and their need to make what happened right. So now, 3 months before my wedding, I now had a new dress, and they were able to alter it to fit me perfectly. And listen, their tailor is literally amazing- so don't doubt the power of a great tailor, because the dress literally felt made for me after being way too big. To wrap it up, on my wedding day, my wedding coordinator did not know/could not zip up my dress. I'm going to skip all of the crash out moments (lol), but long story short, we called Casablanca, and they a) tried to explain it over the phone, then b) facetimed us to try and show how to get the dress to zip up, and when that didn't work, they literally drove down to my wedding venue and helped me into my dress. When I tell you these ladies are angels, I MEAN IT. I could not believe how much they were willing to do to make sure I was able to wear my incredibly beautiful dress. THANK YOU Casablanca!!! I cannot recommend them enough. You all are amazing and helped me feel "like a million bucks"!

I have to start off with Rowena, who is amazing at what she does! I came in with an idea, a vision,…read morea budget range, sample images, and although I didn't get exactly what I had envisioned, I came out with an equally beautiful dress within my budget. Made an appt for the next available Saturday which was 3 weeks away. My wedding is 10 months away, so I knew I had to give enough time for shipping. If all goes well, the dress will be arriving 4 months to the wedding, to which we have ample time for dress fitting. There are 2 main waiting areas at Casablanca, downstairs and upstairs. We waited downstairs until the previous party was completed with their appt, to which we then moved upstairs. I showed Rowena pictures, she pulled a 3 options out. I already knew I didn't like the way some of them looked, she then pulled out 3 more. Then I tried them on. By that point, I already narrowed it down to that 2nd set of 3, Rowena had picked out. Came back the next day with my mom and sister for final approvals. Paid for and ordered a dress that Sunday. The process for trying on dresses was seamless and painless, thanks to Rowena. She truly is amazing at her job and makes you feel so comfortable. As for parking, there are a few stalls in their garage, or you can pull up on the grass up front if your car can go off-roading a little bit. There's also street parking nearby, but definitely carpool if you got several people coming by with you.
