Let Me First Start off by saying that this review is not to say that Milisea lefua is a bad person…read more Because honestly she is isn't.... But my total bridal experience wasn't what I expected. I first met Milisea through a mutual friend and my sister whom later on after my dealings with her later told me about some inconsistencies with her while she also used her while planning her wedding back in 2019. I first started speaking with Milisea concerning my upcoming wedding during the spring of 2022. I felt very comfortable and confident that she would be able to accommodate everything that I wanted to see transpire with my wedding from the beginning to the end! I Basically Trusted her. Things started off ok in the beginning but as most Brides know there are a few hiccups along the way that are to be expected while planning a wedding. On July 7, 2022 ,I finally go in to see Milisea .We finally sit down and discuss our plans and the cost and the deposit to execute our wedding. Milisea from the beginning always told me to not worry or overthink things! She promised me that she could deliver! Milisea had a contract that she drafted up covering all the services that she the boutique owner /wedding coordinator would be able to provide to us the consumer/ bride and groom. But she didn't render any of the services that she stated in the contract. As the close of 2022 starts drawing to a close, we start talking about the bridesmaid dresses and the cost and etc. We decide to bring my ladies in at the end of September to be fitted and measured for their bridesmaids gowns! Around December 2022 a coupe of my bridesmaids along with myself are starting to ask when will the dresses be back? I reached out to Milisea concerning the dresses. They hadn't arrived. So finally On February 3,2023 the dresses finally arrived... they arrived back some sized way larger than the ladies were originally measured for back in September of 2022. As the ladies started to go in for their fittings they along with myself discovered that the dresses had to be realted. Now this was in February of 2023. Since a couple of the ladies dresses came back entirely to big Milisea offered to take care of the dresses for the ladies. That same month I finally got my fiancé to come in to see Milisea in regards to have his groomsmen along with himself fitted, but unfortunately he choose to go another route after he couldn't find anything. He ended up going to American tuxedo and bridal. In which he received his tuxedo for free since his groomsmen purchased there's from them. Once I made contact with Milisea to inform her that my fiancé had got his tuxedo and where he purchased it , she then started to bash the company in whom he had decided to do business with since he didn't give his business to her. After that it seemed to me that her entire attitude changed. So I continued to plan my wedding with minimal planning with her at this point. When ever I would reach out to her in regards to anything concerning the wedding she in my opinion seemed uninterested and short in conversation with me. Her actions and intentions didn't seem genuine at this point. As spring is approaching my bridesmaids still hadn't received their gowns. I had to continue to inquire about them, constantly,due to the wedding date getting closer! On june 3, 2023 the ladies dresses finally came! But yet again two of the ladies dresses still were wrong and still needed to be altered yet again! At least three of the ladies were still having their dresses altered up untill the week of our wedding! On July 13,2023 approximately two weeks before my wedding I go in to see Milisea about having my wedding dress altered and possibly cleaned before my wedding. Everything went well! Prior to me leaving I spoke with Milisea concerning her being there for our wedding rehearsal and the time. As we are discussing the time for the rehearsal she tells me that her job was having her to work out of town but she reassured me that she would be back for the rehearsal and that she would be there to help for the wedding but wouldn't be able to stay long! I said ok! I thanked her and said ok well I'll see you soon! On Sunday July 23,2023 I met with Milisea again to pick up my wedding dress. As I was gathering my things to leave I then again thanked her!! We are literally days away from the wedding! On Thursday july 27, 2023 I called Milisea to just confirm the time for the wedding rehearsal and no answer! On the morning of friday July 28,2023 I started calling her yet again and leaving messages and she never answered. She never returned my phone call. As the afternoon approached I started to stress and worry at this point! I started getting a feeling that she wasn't going to show! As the day went on I continued to call her but no answer no response! I had to at the last minute reach out to my close friend to help possibly with setting up for the reception.

Her stock and catalog selections were so amazing that we purchased our entire wedding party's attire from her (bride, groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower girl, ring bearer, mothers & fathers of the bride and groom AND grandmother)!

I had a hard time choosing!

Its awkwardness is obvious, there's something about the idea of going to the same place that you found your Halloween costume to rent a tux thats unsettling. Yet it makes sense - why not, its all just clothing, and arguably isn't formal wear a costume of a different kind? (ooo I'm deep hah!) I've never actually purchased or rented either type of costume here, partly because I'm a firm believer in creating my own Halloween costumes and partly because, well I'm female and don't generally come across an event where I would need to be decked out in a tuxedo. I have, however, spent many an hour here over the years perusing the merchandise. Its a great place just to get some ideas, or even just pick up some accessories. The staff here is friendly and helpful and its location on West End makes it incredibly convenient. I can't really say anything about their prices as I don't really know what the clothing rental market is like, but their quality seems to be right on and I've known anyone to have a bad experience here. Obviously there are certain times of the year when they are more popular, so if you're shopping for something at those times, I'd suggest getting the jump on it early or you might find yourself with some limited options.
