They made two consecutive errors regarding the pricing of my headpiece and veil, and refused to take accountability for it. We ended up having to pay $250 extra to cover their errors. They are cash-only, so they can get away with changing the price to whatever they want. The owner of this business is BEYOND unprofessional. She takes no accountability for the actions of herself or her employees. Her tone on the phone is belittling, shallow, and completely inconsiderate of paying customers. I am devastated that we had to give money to this woman, but my wedding is in 2 months and I had no other choice. It's a shame because the veil and headpiece are beautiful, and I had a lot of fun picking them out, but after hearing the owner arguing with my mother I wanted to leave the merchandise at the store and walk out. I'm truly disgusted, I have never encountered a place like this in my life. I manage a small business myself and could never imagine speaking to a customer like this.

I live in Los Angeles so trying to plan a trip to the shop during normal business hours was impossible. When we arrived we parked in the store parking lot which is so convenient in SI! Marcela took us downstairs and we were blow away by all her beautiful things. We started with trying on robes then slips for underneath then custom Crystal slippers Lastly the head piece. When it came to trying them on Marcela had me sit down, she asked me how i was planning on wearing my hair. I showed her a pictured and then she went to work. Marcela who is also a hair dresser, gave me a beautiful up-do in 5 minutes. This was so crucial in seeing how the head piece would lay. I never got this type of service at any other bridal salons! She then placed a veil on my head so i could get the full picture. My mom and i were blown away by how special Marcela made me feel, Even on her day off she gave me the best experience. Do yourself a favor and come here for all accessories, Im SO HAPPY i did!

If I could give zero stars I would... I had a really…read moredisappointing experience with this bridal boutique. We were required to order bridesmaid dresses 8 months in advance, which already felt unusual. After ordering, I found out I'm pregnant and the wedding will be when I'm about 5 months along, so I called the store to ask if I could simply change the size since the dress hasn't even arrived yet. The dress is from a designer whose website shows 8-9 week shipping for special orders yet the store insisted the process takes 8 months. At first I was told the bride requested the dresses early, which wasn't true. Later they changed the explanation and said their shipping takes longer than the designer's... even though that is who they place their orders through so makes absolutely no sense. After speaking with the bride, she was also told that we had to order before December because of upcoming tariffs that would supposedly increase the price. However, the dress is currently the exact same price to order today, which makes that explanation confusing as well. The bride also mentioned to the consultant during ordering that some bridesmaids could potentially be pregnant, but later I was told that if the bride had specifically said that someone is trying to get pregnant, they would have advised ordering a larger size. Apparently the wording needed to be extremely specific in order to receive that guidance. Despite the dress not even being in my possession yet or theirs, I was told I would have to purchase an entirely new dress and could not change the size or receive any credit. I understand bridal items can be final sale, but the inconsistent explanations and lack of flexibility were really disappointing especially given the circumstances. I wish there had been more honesty and willingness to help. I would absolutely never give these people my business and if you're thinking about it BEWARE. They will rip you off and try to manipulate you with zero remorse. Might I add the wedding is still 5 months away

They created the most beautiful, welcoming experience exactly how a bride should feel when searching for her wedding dress. Saying yes to my dress was everything I dreamed it would be and more.

They made sure every single detail was perfect and that I felt completely confident and comfortable. I had the best bridal experience a girl could ever ask for, and I am so beyond grateful. Thank you for making such a special moment in my life feel magical from beginning to end.

I ordered my Jovani gown here for my best friend's wedding because it was close and convenient. I…read moreordered my dress at the end of January with the other matron of honor and at that time I was 15 pounds heavier (recently had twins). I had tried on a size 8 which was a bit snug on the hips. Granted I needed a bigger size and the woman had suggested I get a size 14. I didn't feel comfortable with that so I said I'd like to purchase a size size 12 and she was ok with that too. All was going well until I went to pick up my dress in July and it was low and behold a size 14. I tried on the dress and it was literally hanging off of my body. I expressed to the woman I wanted a new dress. She said "IVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR 40 YEARS. You don't need a new dress." She then asked me where I was getting fitted and I had said that someone that worked there was recommended by your staff, she immediately shook her head no. So that being said, I walked out completely mortified. Instead of finding a solution I was pushed out the door. I had a dress 4 times too big which was completely open back, full of glitter and embellishments that I couldn't wear. I found a wonderful seamstress who was appalled by how big my dress was and had said they've should have ordered a size 10 at tops. She cut and took in as much as she could off the dress without altering the look of the dress but it still doesn't fit like a glove like it's supposed to. The other matron of honor NEVER RECEIVED HER DRESS! We called every other week since July and was always told it would be in the following week. Well it never came and there was no explanation or solution except "here's your money back". Good luck. She had to find this gown 3 weeks before the wedding elsewhere. Here I am 3 days before the wedding with a dress that is still too big. $560 for the gown : plus the amount I needed to reconstruct my dress is just truly outrageous. I'm hoping whoever reads this review never steps foot in there ever again because I will never give Ivory and Company my business ever again.

I called Bossina Couture and literally begged her to correct her error, she refused. My husband went to the store and offered to pay more for another gown, the owner dismissed him and told him to leave. I paid cash for this gown!!!! This is incredibly frustrating, especially considering the high price of the gown.

I was always rushed. I have so many threatening vms one completely lying saying this gown cost $1000. Incorrect. (See contract) On top of that, they also are telling me that they will show up at my wedding reception!!! Im not greedy like them, I only asked for my money back ONCE. But they can have that and the dress bc I just went and bought a much more expensive and better gown. Please stay away they're a nightmare.

I wrote a review on facebook, but after seeing some negative comments here it bothered me because…read morethey are so far from the truth in my opinion. I unlike many brides dreaded going dress shopping. I had no idea what style, what would look good; I'm on the larger side and i thought small shops only catered to smaller girls and were so over priced. I didn't look forward at all... When i arrived there the owner and her mother were so sweet and making me feel so comfortable. The owner asked me what i wanted and i told her I HAD NO IDEA. She looked at me and said ok go in the dressing room. She came in with five dresses. I was very self conscious to get undressed but she made me feel so at ease, talking to me and making me feel i was important. The first dress was the one. She spent 10 minutes tightening it putting on the veil and head peice. She knew i wanted it ... Instead of rushing me, she continued to put on every dress after that. She also completed each look with the veil and head piece. she spent over a hour even letting me try on the first dress again. I told her i wanted it, she said to think about it no need to rush. i was so scared it would cost a lot but i got it for 1,100!!! A dress that looks at least 5 grand. The veil is absolutley gorgeous and breath taking... i have to say i wish i could relive this moment because this fitting made me excited about planning my wedding... if i had a negative experience i don't think i would of went through with the hall and party. I can't thank you guys enough for making my dream come true. Any future events i will go here for my dresses, baby's christenings, future events...

Well, it was time for my first fitting, and I officially haven't seen my dress in a year! My…read moreappointment was scheduled for 5:30PM on a weekday, and it seemed a bit hectic when I arrived with my mother and sister a half hour before. I was asked multiple times if I was the bride and what time my appointment was. I assured them that I knew I was early, and would obviously wait until the prior appointments were done. They told me to take off my coat and take a seat until I could go upstairs to try on my gown. I did as I was instructed, and I waited. 5:39PM I was heading up the stairs with my family following behind me. We went into the fitting room exactly at the top of the stairs, where there was a square pedestal, and two full length walled mirrors. Nothing fancy, and nothing run down; it was a pretty understated dressing room. The woman helping me was being very insistent on me wearing a slip skirt under my gown to give it more poof, but I explained that I am not the princess type, and I wanted to keep it A-lined. Again, multiple times she insisted, and I remained firm. Then, at last once I had the gown on, I said I would try on the skirt underneath to see what the fuss was all about. We were first told it was $140, and then she said it was $150, and she showed us the bag that the skirt was in. I was a little uncertain at first, but everyone makes mistakes. So, since my gown did have bead work at the bottom of the lining, the skirt did what it was supposed to do. The store owner said, "She's not supposed to look like herself; she's special for the day." I agree with the special part, but I don't want to look like a princess if that wasn't my "vision." These women are old-school Italian. If you are not used to this, you will of course hate this experience from the start. They have been in the business for years, and talk to you like a granddaughter or niece. They will not flatter you if you do not look flattering, and I appreciate the brutal honesty. I know alot of these reviews were complaining about alterations pricing. Alterations are FREE for the bride. I am getting my gown taken in at the bust, but at no extra cost! They ordered the correct size for me, and it fit like a glove.

Gina and her husband are the best! After being sold a non-existent dress by a local bridal store (I…read moredid review them here), I needed a trustworthy seamstress to bring my vision to life. From the moment you walk into Zatsarina, you're met with kindness and professionalism. The inside is sleek and showcases all of Gina's talents. For my personal tailoring, in terms of a unique situation, I needed sleeves from a jacket placed on a spaghetti strap dress. Then, I needed a bustle added to my dress, tulle taken out of the bottom layers, and a slit added. The fabric of my jacket sleeves were very delicate (covered in beads); and I needed someone who I could fully trust. She delivered. She even hand placed matching beads in spots that were naturally not as crowded, to match the rest of the jacket. Additionally, she hemmed the sleeves of the jacket, so they were perfect. For my bustle, I wanted something that did not create a large bump around my butt, and the way she made the bustle was perfect and almost invisible. (My train was LONG, when bustled, you could not tell there were 14 buttons to make this possible.) It was so easy to connect everything- she showed my MOH a video how to do so too and even encouraged her to record it, which was super helpful dua of. my sister (MOH) was able to do it within a few minutes. Gina's work is perfection. She met with me multiple times to make sure everything was perfect and even provided directions on how to steam the day off. Also, Gina makes custom wedding dresses! Pros: attention to detail & skill Overall, my dress fit perfectly & everything held up. I would highly recommend zatsarina fashion, specifically gina for your most important tailorings. With her attention to detail and skill, you cannot go wrong!

Most places wouldn't have been able to do that, but Zatsarina's really came through. My first fitting was on August 24th with a second scheduled for September 18th and finally a pickup for October 4th. Gina was so efficient and diligent explaining what needed to be done (take in the shoulder straps, hem, bustle, etc). My first visit was thorough and she explained everything perfectly. All of the alterations would come to $800 (as I had bought off the rack at another boutique). When I came in for my fitting everything was looking great and only a few minor tweaks needed to be made. All in all, a great experience. There was a bit of a hiccup at the end when it wasn't fully ready for my pickup and still needed to be steamed. They made it work and were able to finish it while I waited. I didn't entirely like dealing with her husband but Gina was EXCEPTIONAL. She suggested a video on how to bustle which was super helpful for later. As I mentioned, I had a difficult request with such a quick turnaround time, but I'm so grateful for how everything turned out and how Gina was willing to help and deliver such high quality service.
