Expert Reviews of Priscilla of Boston

Citysearch | High-end bridal wear institution isn't for the faint of pocketbook, but if cost's no object, its elegance is worth every penny.

The prices at this wedding-prep landmark won't make potential spouses rethink the elope-to-Vegas option; the average dress price here is $2,500. But its coveted gowns are made to order; designed, hand-sewn and...

User Reviews of Priscilla of Boston

SNEAKY, SNEAKY, SNEAKY

I was shocked upon check-out, after my first fitting, that they tacked on an additional $480 dollars on my bill. Since they make you pay for each adjustment, I truly believe that they ordered the wrong dress size, I literally had to hold up the dress from falling down!!! (NO, I weigh the same exact as at the time of the measurments were taken). They also charged me additional $208 for having the train bustled. I was not advised of this fee when I ordered the dress. OUTRAGEOUS!!!! SNEAKY!!!!

Yelp.com Review - by Anne H.

3 of 5 stars. This is a classic bridal salon, meaning: 1) You cannot browse the dresses yourself. Instead, you are assigned a "consultant." I find this annoying beyond belief.

Unique Experience!

I have been looking around for wedding gowns for 5 months, and have visted several shops. I went to Priscilla's three times, and the service is not only consistent (I say this very positively), but they never...

1 of 5 stars. Don't buy your wedding dress here. They tried to upsell me on my gown and brought me a dress that was $3000 out of my price range and then offered me a "discount" which they calculated incorrectly and…

4 of 5 stars. This was my first stop on the hunt for my dress and I was surprisingly pleased with the overall experience. My consultant, Michelle D., was very nice and understanding. In one hour I managed to try on…

No stress wedding dress experience

My experience at Priscilla of Boston was great. I made an appointment and was welcomed at the door. During my consultation I told the staff that I wanted to spend much less than their average dress costs. The...

4 of 5 stars. I mainly liked the selection and I really appreciated my salesperson (Phyllis). I bought my dress on my second visit, after bringing my mom to show her the dress. However, when I was looking at the…

2 of 5 stars. I have been to many bridal shops before visiting Priscilla of Boston. I am sorry to say that it was probably the worst experience I've had compared to all the other places I've been to. Over all I…

5 of 5 stars. This is what wedding dress shopping should be like. A beautiful location just off Newbury street, high ceilings, quiet and tasteful interior, huge windows with light streaming in... It's elegant, but…

Very Positive Wedding Gown Shopping Experience

After I read these reviews, I just had to write about my experience. I made an appointment for February for my mother and I to look at wedding gowns. Our experience was very positive. Prior to going, I was a...

Rude Rude Rude, stay away!

I went into the salon not knowing that it was by appointment only (there are no signs stating this). My mother, sister and I exited the elevator and were glared at by the two people sitting behind the desk....

Worst dress shopping experience yet!

Wedding gown shopping should be an amazing experience for every woman but my experience at Priscilla of Boston was nothing of the sort. The woman who was supposed to "help" me was obnoxious and rude. She...

Bridal Dresses - Stay away

You really have to be very insecure or very stupid to put up with their * . The staff's incompetence and their "I am going to insult you before you insult me" attitude is only the beginning. I had the...

Do you want to be treated badly? By people you don't know who will still gladly make a commission off of you and your bridal party? Yet actually have a very limited selection of gowns and styles for you to...

Awful

I went dress shopping last summer with my mother. We were both thrilled...until we walked into Priscillas. From the moment I stepped in there, I felt out of place. When I asked to set up an appointment, the...

I was shocked at how horrible the service was. I was treated as though I was inconveniencing them even though I had an appointment. I was given three dresses to try on and then completely forgotten about. I...

Nice gowns but poor customer service

I looked for my wedding gown at Priscilla and was very disappointed. They have some lovely gowns, but since you aren't allowed to browse the collection you might never see the one. The salesgirl that helped me...

WORST EXPERIENCE

I left in tears. That's how rude the salesgirl was. She told me not to be so picky because my chest probably wouldn't fit into anything they had anyway. For $3000 a dress, I thought she might be more...
