Pearls Place

This page is about bad experiences with the store pearl's place, in metairie, la.
In my opinion, the store has bad customer service and doesn't get alterations right very often. Additionally, their prices aren't all that great. For some reason, people flock to the store, when there are other alternatives. For example, my wife got her wedding dress at a store on Magazine Street for the same price as it would have been at Pearl's Place, minus the $600 "service fee" they charge you, for doing basically nothing.

I've looked around the internet, and from what i DO see, bad experiences are common. Pearl's place themselves even link to their page at the better business bureau. I was curious, so i looked at the list of all bridal shops in new orleans, to compare complaints (here) What i found was interesting. Most of the "complaints" against pearl's place had been resolved, but none of the other bridal shops had anything close to the number of complaints that pearl's place did.


I'm putting this page up to help people. Getting married should be a joy, and places like Pearl's Place really take away from that joy. If you have a choice, go someplace else. Stores on Magazine (especially Mimi) are NOT THAT EXPENSIVE. Don't let the location trick you into thinking you can't afford it. Instead of being in a crowd of people waiting 30 minutes for customer service, you'll end up with little wait, one-on-one attention, and alterations that are done on time, right the first time.
