“Very Satisfied”

Lori S.
6/16/24

I have to admit I was a bit skeptical when reading the reviews. I found this dress in Miami for twice the price and then found the dress on CoutureCandy for a lot less. I was worried that it was a Chinese company that scams you but after speaking with them on the phone, I found out that they were in Las Vegas. I told them my concerns with the reviews and she told me the policies. I took a chance and I am glad I did. The dress arrived and is the same dress I tried on in Miami. The updated me constantly on the tracking and delivery from UPS. The rep I dealt with took all my measurements over the phone. Told me what to order. It came in big, which is what I wanted so I could have it altered locally and make sure it was perfect. I am completely satisfied with my experience and will use them again for my next formal function.

“Excellent site”

Nancy T.
8/16/20

Excellent site. Everything is well thought out; select outfit by function, color, designer, sales, new items. And what a selection; for all ages. Easy to see if you're interested in an outfit; you swipe the picture to see different colors, back, side and front views w/o taking time to open up that particular window.

I've ordered several try on dresses from different places for my son's upcoming wedding in November, but have never had so much difficulty in the return process. This should be streamlined to be easier for your customers

After ordering multiple dresses and returning them from other sites, I found the perfect dress for my daughter's homecoming. Shipping was prompt and the dress is even more beautiful in person. Will order again for another event.

Reason I chose this business:

Great selection of dresses at various price points.

I am 5' 11", 180 lbs. I ordered a Large as I wear a size 12 in dresses. Unfortunately, it was a little small. An XL would have fit perfectly. The online ordering was very easy, and I received my order within 1 week!

Reason I chose this business:

I found CoutureCandy searching online for a formal evening dress. Great selection of dresses and the prices were very reasonable.

Reason I chose this product:

I was looking for a formal evening wear dress in black and you had a great selection. I liked the look of the dress I ordered.

I never received a notification that this shipped and never received tracking information. The dress just showed up one day. And the one that arrived was different than as pictured. It's too much of a hassle to return so I'm going to have it altered to look like the picture instead.

Edit: Customer service reached out and offered a refund of a portion of the purchase price of the dress to help cover the cost of alterations! I think that is pretty above and beyond and deserves an upgraded rating. I would definitely order from this site again now.

Reason I chose this business:

Had the dress I was looking for in my size.

Reason I chose this product:

I’ll be wearing it as mother of the bride.

The ordering process was easy and very quick. The packaging was well done. The dress did not work for my event needs, so needed to return. The return process is quite ridiculous to say the least. Pictures needed of the dress front/back, in addition to the box with label, in addition to a receipt of shipment all need emailed to customer service. It's time consuming and seems unnecessary. The follow up emails are also allot.

I needed a formal gown for a last minute gala, and I needed it to be under $100. I quickly and easily found one that checked all those boxes. The dress is stunning, it arrived quickly, and I paid less than $130, including 3 day shipping. My only gripe has nothing to do with Couture Candy, but relates to the condition in which UPS delivered my package. My dress was packed on a hanger, in a clear plastic bag and then placed in a physic shipping bag. Somewhere along the way, the shopping bag was completely sliced open from end to end and the basher was broken. It's a wonder the dress was even still in it. Miraculously, the dress is perfect and unscathed.

Reason I chose this business:

I purchased my wedding dress from Couture Candy about 5 years ago and had a great experience then. After searching all over the city and not finding anything I remotely liked, I remembered to check out Couture Candy because of my previous positive experience.

Reason I chose this product:

The color, style, quality, and price were absolutely perfect.

Love this dress! I will be wearing it to my son's wedding in February. It did run two sizes small so I ordered up to compensate for that. It is a perfect fit although way too long, but at 5'4" I'm used to that and will have it altered. I received the order quickly with no shipping problems.

Reason I chose this business:

Beautiful dress choices for my son's wedding!

I am so thrilled for the second time! I purchased a Marsoni dress from CoutureCandy two years ago for my eldest daughter and went right back to them again now that my youngest daughter is getting married. I received my second beautiful Marsoni dress and I'm over the moon! Your company is fabulous and your dresses are gorgeous and of high quality. Thanks for making this gal so happy!

My dress had been on my favorites list for a couple months, but was hesitant because of price and potential alterations cost. I checked back frequently and the price dropped 75%. Now I have my dream dress and can still afford alterations.

The packaging arrived torn; I expected the dress to arrive in a cardboard box. The Dress also had hanging straps that fell apart, so that the dress was not properly hung on the hanger. Not so bad because I have to have the dress altered anyway and they can fix the straps for me.

I have looked for months for a mother of the groom dress and have ordered at least 10. The burgundy bateau sheath dress is the first one I've found that fits and is pretty comfortable. The shape is simple and elegant.

CoutureCandy shipped quickly and provided tracking updates. Unfortunately the designers size chart is not accurate because I have recent measurements taken from a bridal boutique owner and according to their size chart my measurements fell right on with a size 12. Unfortunately it was too small so I have to send it back for an exchange to a larger size. The great thing though is when I called their CSR number I actually got a rep who answered quickly with no hold time and provided all the info I needed to do the return including answering all my questions.

I've ordered from other gown sellers online and their CS debts were not nearly as efficient.

The only thing I wish were different were that they would reimburse to original payment source (CC) so that I could just order the size I need and get that shipped ASAP. Instead I have to wait until they receieve this gown back and complete an exchange. It all works out but time is dwindling for me with my daughter's wedding in just one month.
I ordered a LaFemme gown and love it. It's not as heavy or as structured as other gowns I've tried on but it's really a beautiful gown and I can't wait to get my exchange.

See my above satisfaction in body of review.

It's actually great to get a working phone number let alone to speak to a human.

Reason I chose this business:

Found gown on website that I really liked. Their selection is also very large so if I didn't like it I can get store credit and have many more options to choose from if needed.

Reason I chose this product:

The color and style
