I rarely write negative reviews, but my experience with both Madame Bridal and MNM Couture has been…read moreincredibly disappointing. I purchased a $2,200 gown for my son's wedding and expected exceptional quality and customer service. Unfortunately, neither met my expectations. I ordered a size 8, but was sent a size 6. I contacted Madame Bridal immediately, and they reached out to MNM Couture on my behalf. While they responded, the communication lacked empathy and any real sense of urgency. I repeatedly explained that my son's wedding is on July 25, making their proposed replacement delivery date of July 30 completely impractical. I understand that production takes about a month, but that doesn't change the fact that the error was not mine. Instead of taking ownership or offering meaningful solution, such as expediting production, helping with alteration costs, or presenting other options, I was simply told that they would send a replacement which should be delivered by July 30, completely ignoring my timeline. As a result, I had to find a seamstress and hope the dress can be altered to fit, adding unnecessary stress, expense, and uncertainty just days before an important family event. I'm not trying to nitpick or be overly critical, but for a gown that cost over $2,200, I honestly expected a higher level of quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. From the packaging to the loose beading and the incorrect size being shipped, the overall experience simply didn't reflect the standards I associate with a luxury designer. Mistakes can happen, but what truly defines a company is how they respond when they do. Unfortunately, I never felt that MNM Couture accepted responsibility or made a genuine effort to resolve the situation. The lack of accountability and customer care has been the most disappointing part of this experience.

I am happy to have stopped by to see Gabriel after looking at reviewing their collections on their website. There is something for everyone who is looking for quality modern Filipiniana for all occasions. I found one that is perfect for the planned event and future occasions: Enrique Short Sleeve Barong in pina fabric, not the traditional long-sleeve, but one that I can wear for many different events. I stopped by the salon to check my fit with Gabriel. The Mestizo provides regular updates on the custom tailoring and shipment. The fit and look more than exceed my expectations. There is plenty of street parking and nearby lots since they are located in the Helms Bakery area of Culver City. Peruse their website or stop by to see their offerings if you are in the market for high end designs and fabrics.

They are…read moreexcellent at keeping their online shop updated for what they have in-store with pictures and sizes of the gowns. Their selection of designers is truly amazing. I can't speak to their online portion of the business, with the shipping and try-on-at-home or the selling process, but I can absolutely recommend that if you're looking to buy a wedding dress in SoCal, it's worth it to visit this place in person! It was just me and my mom (someone whose opinion I value but who also trusts that I can make my own decisions), but I think they allow up to four people to come with you. (Choose wisely lol). They also have great tips on their site, and the ones I felt were super helpful were 1- go to a regular bridal salon first to get a feel for the things you like and don't like, 2- size up one or two sizes from what your street clothes normally are, 3- preview their selection online and come prepared if there's something you specifically want to try on. They also send you a questionnaire when you book the appointment asking how you want to feel in your wedding dress on the day of -- which was a really useful question to answer, just for myself lol but I'm sure it helps them pick out some options that might align! Desiree was amazing!! She immediately understood my vision. She was an incredible resource for all of my nerdy material questions, and my questions about the consignment process, what would and wouldn't be possible in alterations, travel tips for transporting the dress, storing the dress, post-ceremony cleaning, etc. It's also bananas how much she knew about the history of some of my dress picks re: the original bride's alterations, off the top of her head! (Or maybe it's written down in their system haha that's probably more likely, but if it was from memory, freakin' kudos!). Apparently, Desiree had worked at the designer of one of my top pick dresses so she also had the lowdown of the business from that perspective as well! I also didn't feel pressured at all, which was so important for me--not just for wedding dress shopping but for all of the choices we've been making for the wedding. It's a small thing, but something I greatly appreciated. The absolute most useful advice Desiree had was about the alterations process and even pricing. She made the caveat that different people would have a range of prices, but for what I was looking for, she would be shocked if I had to pay over X amount. I went to five different alteration places to get quotes, and three of them quoted me pretty much the exact number Desiree had suggested, and two of them tried to upsell me on things I didn't need and charge me three times as much! Obviously, I went with one of the seamstresses that quoted me that starting price, and I was so grateful that Desiree knew her stuff because my people-pleaser self might have just accepted the pricier alterations place without questioning it. I found the gown of my dreams at Loved Twice Bridal, from my top pick designer (Galia Lahav!) at significantly off the retail/custom order price. I received excellent service from an extremely knowledgeable resource. And I made a choice that aligned with my sustainable values. I'm so, so happy with how it all worked out! I just picked it up after alterations (Connie Tao Designs in Pasadena) and I cannot wait to wear this dress on my wedding day! Obviously, my choice of husband is the best choice I've made for my wedding haha, but choosing the dress I did, from this shop - it was a pretty darn good choice for me. Best of luck in your search!!

Service 2/5 Selection 3/5…read more Honestly I had a very disappointing experience on my birthday here. Upon arrival, the woman at the front desk (Desiree) didn't greet us despite us being the only party to enter. It wasn't until I introduced my name that she then introduced herself. She also made it a point to say "you brought the 'whhhole crew' with you today. Which I was confused about because I had 4 guests which was within the allowed guest count. It was a very uncomfortable encounter. Nonetheless, I brushed it off as I was excited to try on wedding gowns for my November 2025 event. While selecting dresses, I asked Desiree if she could please add one of the gowns to the rack for me to try on. Her response was "but is it actually in your budget?" Woah--did she just Pretty Woman me? When I asked if that was a requirement to try on dresses, she responded no, but since it's a consignment shop they have to be mindful of how many times a dress is worn and they want guests to be intentional about selections. Okay--understandable but set that expectation from the beginning or it sounds extremely judgmental without context. The selection was quite limited as other people mentioned. That said I found a dress with potential and put it on hold. Ultimately I changed my mind about the purchase because I couldn't justify supporting a shop with that type of customer service. I thankfully ended up finding my dream dress elsewhere and ironically it was well over my original budget. But when I tried it on and loved it--I figured it's worth the price. From the glowing reviews I truly hope I'm an anomaly, but I had to share my experience as I hope this behavior from staff can be improved in the future. For many of us, this experience is supposed to be exciting and when we are paying for the experience to try on dresses I think at minimum staff should try to *at least* fake politeness for the one hour we have booked.
