on Citysearch Mar 10, 2009Do not put a deposit down here! They will steal your money and pretend they don't have you on file. Then, when you attempt to contact someone about buying a veil or shoes with the deposit, they will claim they don't have... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 26, 2009I went to Eva's for the Maggie Sottero Trunk Show and found my gown. I didn't purchase it then because I wasn't sure even though I knew the trunk show was over on Sunday. I called yesterday and asked them to hold the sample... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 30, 2008I second Kasia's review. Eva's shouldn't be bothered with any of these negative anonymous reviews. They're probably written by the same people that are distributing those lies in the Brides Beware letters, and we... (more)
Citysearch User
on Citysearch Jul 30, 2008If I were Eva's, I wouldn't even bother to respond to some of these silly reviews. Some of these brides are complaining because they shopped there five times but telling everyone not to go back? Why go there five times... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 27, 2008THIS PLACE IS HORRIBLE!!! I have just started the process of wedding gown shopping and as many of you know, it should be a fun experience. Well, not at Eva's. They hassled me about putting down a non-refundable $200.00... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 24, 2008Please spend your money on a gown somewhere else!! When you first go there, they are very nice because they just want to make a sale. Once you buy your dress, it becomes the worst place to ever exist. They are rude,... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 16, 2008This is the best bridal salon you can find. If city search had ten starts I would have given it to that store. I agree it's not the most elegant around, but who cares. They have gowns that no other store in the entire... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 13, 2008Anyone that writes a good review for this store has to be working for them. If I too could only give this place a 1/2 star I would. If you want dirty, trashed gowns, older styles that fit no one normal, they're all either... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 18, 2008UPDATE: My wedding was 08/08/08, and just as I suspected, my wedding dress was the LEAST of my worries on that day. It was perfectly altered. I had heels for the ceremony and flat shoes for the reception, and they... (more)

on Citysearch May 20, 2008I purchased my gown in January and went in for my first fitting today. So far so good. My consultant, Jan, was great, my gown came on time and my first fitting was easy. I didn't give them five stars until I pick up the gown,... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 26, 2008I finally found my wedding gown. I should have gown there first and saved myself months of agony and pain. It was a little over my budget but I didn't care. They had a trunk show and I got almost $700 off the price. This... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 24, 2008Eva's is the WORST bridalshop I've seen in quite a while. Absolutely no customer service, rude on the phone when you ask about a dress that is months late, and actually want you to pay extra to expedite your already late... (more)
