L'Elite was recomended to me by my cousin who get married in her mother,s wedding gown. Her gown needed a lot of changes and she was very happy with the results.
When I went to L'Elite I was very impressed with their selection of designers, styles, and price ranges. Because I was on a limited budget I purchased a sample gown. Mona who was helping me made me feel welcomed and comfortable. When I asked about alteration cost (it was 2 sizes too small and needed many changes in style) L'Elite's seamstress Lena spent a great deal of time with me explaining to me all my options, offering solutions and compromises. She had many ideas and I felt that she understood what I wanted even when I had trouble explaining it myself. The work that she did was truly amazing. We started with a sample gown and ended up with the beautiful and unique gown that was perfect for my body, my personality, and the setting of my wedding. I felt and looked beautiful on my wedding day.
I would recommend L'Elite to anybody. Thank you.
- Pros: exelent service
- Cons: parking
WoRST bridal gown shopping experience!!!

I have never written a review on a website before, but after the horrible experience that I had at L'elite, I felt compelled to warn others! When I first called L'elite to make an appointment, the woman on the phone was very rude, but I decided to give her the benefit of the doubt and continue to schedule the appointment. From the moment my mom and I arrived at the appointment, the woman who was helping us was EXTREMELY snobby and rude. She literally did not smile once the entire time we were there. She stood around while I looked through the dresses, and did not make one suggestion even though I explained what I was looking for. When it was time to try the dresses on, she showed my mom and I to the dressing room and closed us in. She did not offer to help me get into the dresses, so my mom and I were left trying to clip the dresses in the back so that they would fit correctly. Needless to say, this is something that an experienced person working in a bridal shop should be doing, and the two of us had no clue!
From the moment I walked into L'elite, I felt extremely uncomfortable and almost like it was a hassle that I had come in for an appointment. I am a very easy-going person, and I had wonderful experiences at a number of other bridal salons in the Boston area. This was BY FAR the rudest, snobbiest, most unhelpful bridal salon that I have ever stepped foot in, and I would not recommend it to anyone!
- Pros: This is a difficult one...
- Cons: horrible service, snobby atmosphere, rude and unhelpful consultants
