First impressions are everything ! Manager is very rude to clients and staff . You must schedule an appointment and pay a fee in order to go in and see the dresses . You cannot go in as a WALK IN. Some dresses are over priced . You do not feel welcomed when you walk in. . Better dresses and prices around the corner . This store is more of prom and 15 dresses not graduation. Will not be visiting again. read more

I had no idea it was by appt, they took me in and and were BEYOND accommodating! Super helpful and nice staff. Found an amazingly beautiful dress and accessories! Will definitely be back again! read more

First off... ZERO STARS!!!! ZERO STARS!!! For being rude from the beginning of entrance to end leaving. I asked the lady ( who seems to be the "owner" if I can be able to look at some dresses and if this was by appointment or can be walk in? She asked me what dresses ? I explained to her that I'm looking for a dress for a gala. She then goes on to say " we don't have any simple dresses for you and when is your gala ? " I respond by asking if I can browse to see and that it's on Wednesday. She goes to the counter to get the business card and hands it to me and tells me that " you should go to the store to get your dress. We only do appointment . " My last response , so you do appointment only . You could have answer that in the beginning ." Wasted time by asking as if you're willing to take my business. The whole conversation was rude itself with her tone/ Attitude. Mind you , I was wearing black yoga outfit. My boyfriend was finding parking and bringing my purse, which by the time I step out of the door , he was already few feet away from going in , holding my purse to accompany me. I'm sorry to bring the race card, the person that supposedly "greeted " me was Asian. She was giving"owner" vibes and I am myself, Asian. I have worked in the retail, especially for Events. I wasn't rude to my customers when working in the retail / event industry. The dresses by the look of it , I am sure and guessing that they order from Fashion District in Los Angeles . Which I'm very sure that, people there in Fashion District wouldn't be rude and allow people to buy clothes. Don't bother to shop there! If you want to be treated/ approach or judged. I'm surprised that they would even be in that area. I can see why maybe they would be running business in a commercial building , most likely cheaper rent since that building is more commercial building focused. read more

I was down to the last day to find a dress for my Barrister Ball event, and everyone at Christina's was absolutely AMAZING!! I'm trying to blow these people on the map because their location is a little hidden, but let me tell you, if you need a dress right away and NOW, they are the place to go! This dress store has a wide arrangement of dresses from quinces, prom, graduation, funeral or any formal event, there is a dress for anyone! I'm personally glad they had a selection of dresses that had my size. Normally a girl like me would have a hard time looking for a last minute dress in my size, but Christy, Bianca and everyone was super helpful and extremely sweet! Please please please drop by and visit Christina's for any dress you may need! Tell them Raven sent you there! Thank you Christy, Bianca and everyone there!! You guys were super amazing and literally made my day!!! read more

Do not recommend. Customer service is horrible!!!! Who ever was at the front did not even greet, after I ACKNOWLEDGED HER she looked at me confused NO WELCOME NO NOTHING after reading the sign to make an appointment to be able to try on dresses I ASKED HER when there was availability, she slowly grabbed her calendar and sighed almost like she didn't want me to book. This is not how you get sales or customers. Never recommending this place these people don't want the business. read more

Came in with my sisters and mom to find the right dress. When I said I was still looking, the lady told me, "Then you can head to the front and get out." Completely rude and uncalled for. Charging $50 to try on is one thing--talking to customers like that is another. Even if I were to find the right dress there, there is absolutely no way that any normal person would support a business like this. Drop the unwelcoming attitude and treat customers with respect. It's expected. read more

Great assortment of gowns to choose from for many occasions bridal and prom and multiple sizes were available to try on The staff was helpful and friendly read more

Right away will kick you out if you do not have an appointment. Manager & employee were super rude. Did not feel welcoming once you entered the shop. read more

There's better places to go. Pros: the place is clean, pretty dresses Cons: customer service sucks, prices are too expensive, long wait time. Today was my look for dresses day, I went to David's Bridal, Original and here (Christina's) When you walk in, the dresses on display are gorgeous so you feel excited to look. I asked if I could look around but they said you have to sign in on the waitlist because there's people in the dressing room. That's okay, they don't want it too crowded I get it. But I asked if I could just see if they have the color I am looking for before waiting for 45min. She told me yes, they definitely have those colors. An hour later, we get to come in. When we walk in, she says so we don't have much in that color so you can look and then you have to come back to try dresses on. Wait so I waited an hour just to see if they have the color dresses I am looking for but that's it. I look around, and nothing at all in the colors I was looking for (um that's why I specifically asked when i signed the waitlist) Prices were about $375 and up for a simple bridesmaid dress. There's no way!! The wedding stores had better selection, quality and prices. I'd say, it's really not worth the hype. The prettiest dresses are right at the front on display but when you get in the selection is slim, they are rude and the prices are all high, I'd say there are better stores. Don't waste your time. I rarely give low stars for any place so my review is pretty credible. Oh I also only got a couple pictures because they don't let you take pictures in the store. read more

I found my dream dress with the amazing help of Christina and her ladies! they were nothing but sweet, personable, and helpful, as well as assisting me in altering my dress quickly and precisely. Highly recommend coming here for prom dresses or any other special events!! 100/10 experience read more

I visited Christina's the other day in search of a formal evening gown. While they do have a beautiful assortment of dresses, they don't have very many larger sizes, which is what I needed. However, Christy was a sweetheart and told me that if I needed help with ordering a dress or anything like that, that she would be happy to help. She even measured me and I now know my correct sizes/measurements. read more

Been shopping for all special occasions at this location. Honestly, not only are they super helpful, professional but they make the experience so memorable. Today I brought my mother to find her dress for a Europe wedding and literally found the one with in 15 minutes being there. If you are considering this place believe me you will not regret!!!!! Love this place read more

Christina's Fashions - Bridal Near Me - Chula Vista, California

Let's start off with if I could give this place zero stars I would! I had taken my niece to look for quinceañera dresses and the lady at the front had greeted a family so well and welcoming. After she finished talking to them my niece and I were just standing there until I went and told the lady at the front what I was looking for. She said well that's all we have over there and you have to make an appointment to try on a dress which is OK I get it. It's their policy. I was just asking for info. But then she was just standing behind us out of nowhere like if I'm gonna steal a big dress really?! and not at the other family. I was wearing flare leggings, slides, a T-shirt and a bun with a mask (because I work in healthcare and I don't want to get sick or get others sick). It was a really hot day and after working with patients all week, you just want to go home and put some comfortable clothes on and tie your hair back in a bun. But the way I dress doesn't justify what I can and cannot afford. It goes to show that they discriminate against you. Like lady I have a good job in La Jolla! When the lady was standing behind us, I told my niece "you know what I'm not feeling it anymore. This place is not for me. We're going somewhere else and taking our money somewhere else". And my niece said "mmmm yeah me neither". I went to multiple stores dressed like this the same day, and they all greeted us so kindly, so professional, and so nice and helped us the best they could with a genuine smile on their face at other places. But I was so shocked with this place. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE HERE! read more

Christina's is a true definition of an amazing business that still offers great service. I was looking for a dress for my birthday party not only did they find one, but they really took that time to care and go out of their way to make sure my dress came in time. You don't find this kind of service anywhere anymore specially in formal wear. Thank you for the experience and the great service. read more

My sister went to try on prom dresses and there was a very nice girl who started helping, alexi, then as my sister was in the fitting room another girl, Angelica, began to help her but she was very rude and didn't let her try on a dress because she said my sister would stretch it and damage the fabric. She proceeded to not respond to my mom is spanish when she spoke spanish to another family she was helping. After that she yelled at my grandma saying that my sister was trying the dresses on incorrectly. She made my sister, mom, and grandma extremely uncomfortable and we had to leave. And to top it off, walking through the store to shop for dresses, you step on all the dresses because of how poorly it is organized. read more

Fuy hace unos dias a esa tienda NO LA RECOMIENDO . Es como raro cuando entras osea no puedes pasar de la entrada , solo miras de lejos te hacen muchas preguntas como para asegurarse que vas a comprar pero te ven como si no tuvieras dinero para comprar un vestido y si quieres mirar algo no puedes tienes que hacer cita. Es perder el tiempo yendo a ese lugar y note que los comentarios recientes negativos están al final , empleadas haciendo y viéndote con sus estereotipos , ni que la tienda fuera LV , GG o PRADA , encuentras mejor calidad , económicos vestidos en otra parte que en esta tienda . I went to that store a few days ago. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT. It's strange when you enter, I mean you can't go past the entrance, you just look from afar, they ask you a lot of questions to make sure you're going to buy, but they see you as if you don't have the money to buy a dress and if you want to look at something, you can't, you have to make an appointment. It's a waste of time going to that place and notice that the recent negative comments are at the end, employees doing and seeing you with their stereotypes, this ain't LV, GG or PRADA, you find better quality, affordable dresses elsewhere than here . Very disappointed & rude people. read more

Christina was so attentive and sweet! I didn't expect to find my dress the first time I tried them on but I did! I love how unique each dress was it didn't feel like a bridal factory store where every bride is wearing the same dress! And they are so reasonable with price and payment plans! Absolutely love this store and highly recommend! read more

Their customer service is severely lacking. I came to find a gown for a wedding I'm attending and I was immediately met with hostile attitudes from each representative. They were condescending and abrasive. I asked if I could see a dress at the window and she said that it was couture and I would need an appointment and a deposit to try it on, so I asked how much the deposit was and she proceeded to tell me the dress was $2000 as if that would make me leave. So I asked again, and said that I'd like to try it on, but she said there were no appointments for the day even though it was empty. The young girl with blonde hair, Alexi, seemed like she didn't want to be there or answer my questions. Prevue Formal and Bridal has drastically better service. The fact that you have to pay $100 deposit just to look at their stock of dresses is ridiculous. The dresses should speak for themselves. I felt uncomfortable the entire time I was there, and it's their loss. I was looking for couture but would never buy from this establishment. Save your time. I don't understand how they're still in business, something is sketchy there. read more

Prom dress shopping and of course had to come to our favorite place! We walked in and knew we would find the perfect dress for my daughter. Completely in love with the dress and the customer service here was amazing and very patient with questions, fitting and more fitting. Angelica is who helped us, she is amazing!! Prom needs stop here and ask for Angelica! read more

Nearly left in tears after a visit here. My sister and I drove from Temecula to find dresses for her 15th. We saw a sign at the door that said by appointment only, but decided to try anyways. A sales person walked us back and started helping my sister find a dress. She asked us what we were looking for. I told her what style and our budget which I immediately felt judged by. While we were looking at dresses she told us we could try on no more than 2 dresses each because she had an appointment at 4. That surprised me a bit as they have at least 4 fitting rooms, but decided to give them the benefit of the doubt thinking it could be a Covid policy. I am not a heavy person. I do however, like most women, have body image issues. When someone goes dress shopping it's because they intend to get dressed up and presumably will want to feel pretty. I told the associate that I wanted to try a dress on but the only one I saw on the rack was on a mannequin. She kind of hesitated and asked my size. I told her a 4 or 6. The dress on the mannequin was a 4. She told me she needed to grab a hanger for the dress so I continued looking. While I was perusing for a second dress toward the front of the store I overheard a conversation between coworkers about our interaction. I heard them discussing my dress size and how there was no way I could be a size 4 or even a 6 and literally laughing. I was ready to leave. I thought...What if that were to have happened to my 14 year old sister who IS heavy and EXTREMELY sensitive to negative comments about her body? She would have left in tears and obsessed over the experience for days. I went to find my sister so we could leave but she was in the dressing room trying something on. She came out in a stunning dress with a huge smile on her face. I couldn't tell her no, she was so excited and looked gorgeous. I held my tongue and we got the dress despite the unacceptable behavior of the staff. With all of that, the selection here is good and the woman who checked us out (who I believe was the owner) was very nice. So as long as you don't mind the disgustingly rude people they hire, come on down. read more

Greatest experience ever! We walked in today after several fails at several shops! We were upfront in letting them know we didn't have an appointment. Thankfully we got there at a perfect time that they were able to squeeze us in. My sister in-laws found exactly what she wanted and Christy was so helpful and just courteous!!! Explained to us the difference of the styles that she had pick and the one she suggested was a keeper!! It was perfectly made to fit !!!! Thank you so much!!!!! read more

Christina is amazing and so helpful each time I go there. The dress selections are from teenagers to grandma's with unique beautiful dresses, and the jewellery to match. read more

Very nice dresses from what I can see from the entrances only. The lady was very rude. Once we told her we were just looking around she closed the entrance and didn't let us check out the dresses. Never been treated like that before, right away gave her back when said just looking and didn't give us asses to look around. read more

I've been going there for over 25 years when ever there's a family wedding. This time they canceled my appointment . They said they don't need to do business with a 4 people appointment.. i will never go there again. The owners should know the people who work for them pick and choose who they want to sell to. read more

WORST customer service. They act like they're doing you a favor...lol. Wanted to charge my wife a 100dll deposit just try on a dress? WTH! Place has crazy prices, nice looking dresses but probably cheap dresses they probably bring from LA and sell them for triple the price. read more

Danica was very helpful and patient. She considered what my daughter was looking for and pulled dresses that she thought my daughter would like. It was so easy. We found the most BEAUTIFUL dress for prom! It's one of a kind! We will return for other occasions. read more

Hello, I hope my experience could be beneficial to those that come across this store. I came in with my family to look at the dresses for a quince and we were astounded with how beautiful the dresses were! I grabbed a dress from the rack that was stunning and one of the ladies working there immediately rushed to my side to tell me that I was not allowed to try on any of the dresses and I would have to make an appointment to do so and that they would be closing at five which was 40 minutes away and to come back later. Quite frankly, I was a little stunned at the how rudely I was spoken to and though the dresses were beautiful, I felt embarrassed to even look at the options. Not only that, but we soon found out that we would have to pay 100 dollars per dress to try on. We ended up going to another location and it was such a stark contrast that put Christina's to shame. Although the selection was vast and they had gorgeous dresses, don't go in unless you plan on paying hundreds of dollars to try even a few on. It was not a very pleasant experience and I don't recommend them. It was supposed to be a fun and exciting moment that felt ruined by how we were treated. read more

Rudest people I have seen Looking for dress for me the bride and my bridesmaids Asked what are you looking for and I explained that I wanted rose gold for the bridesmaids And lady said You should know what rose gold looks like just look your self why are you asking me. Never going back read more

I'm a customer since 2010 and the only reason I keep coming here is because is the only good store for dresses! But I finally found another one! So now I can leave my opinion out here!!! The owner is the most rudest person I have ever met in my entire life!!! She is evil!!! She has no manners!!!! No values!!!! She does not know how to treat people!!! Not customers but people in general!!!! She has the worsts attitude ever!! I don't know how she's still in business because I'm sure she has lost so many customers liek she just lost me!!! She's always in a bad mood!!! Always answering in a bad way!!! And if you get there 30'mins before closing she will not let you try anything!!! Her employees are rude as well! Not all of them but most of them!!!! I'll love to form a committee to go and complain about her with the county or something. She can't keep having this attitude! read more

Horrid experience!!!!! You think you going to buy a bridal dress or a prom dress. Forget about it. In that store- You get to be judged by a rude staff, that will comment on your social class, evaluate your ability to buy their dresses and if you don't pass their judgment oh.... they will tell you to get out, follow you everywhere in the store and will comment that you won't find anything. Specifically, my experience- I brought two girls to buy prom dresses. My daughter quickly found some dresses to try, but her friend was still looking, I sat in the middle on the bench and was waiting for them, first my daughter came slightly upset, the seller told her that the dress was not supposed to sit like that . Next, her friend came out crying and so upset, s explained that salesperson followed her everywhere and told her that she won't find any dresses and that she won't let her try on an, as the dresses are expensive. When I, an adult confronted them, the salesperson was so rude, deniEd everything, yelled back at me. Truly, when I entered the store, I was ready to buy two dresses if they sat good, just to give the girls sense of happiness and beauty that every girl should feel while trying the dress. Now they lost me as a customer and I will do my best to let everyone know to avoid this store by any means. read more

I walked in to this place looking for accessories. I was approached by a asian lady (maybe the owner) and was asked what I was looking for she showed me a few items but was not very friendly while doing so she made me feel like I was wasting her time. I do not like to make a purchase unless I am certain that it is what I like and because I could not decide she told me to go elsewhere to buy whatever it is I am looking for because there she didn't have it. Not only is her customer service approach bad but her entire disrespect towards any customer that walks in that door. I had already heard bad reviews on this particular store and now I understand why. I highly recommend going somewhere else this place will definitely not make your shopping experience pleasant. read more

I was looking for a dress to wear for my sons wedding. It's very overwhelming all the dresses are bunched up together in racks organized by color. Finally I see one I wanted to try on and the sales associate stated I had to leave a deposit to try it on because according to her it's the "couture" line. Now mind you all of the dresses in this store are replicas of other designers work mass produced in China, so I don't understand how they think it's couture . I didn't have a problem with the deposit until they said that it's non refundable you can only apply it to any other purchase in case you don't like what you try on! None refundable deposit to try on a dress!! And they only give you 40 min in the store. NEEDLESS TO SAY I don't recommend going to this store, not well organized mediocre service and the non refundable deposit are a hard pass for me! I will be driving up the freeway to LA to find a dress. read more
