The search for "The Dress" seemed daunting, until we were
guided to Grandasia by Kalli’s Dad. He had passed by
their windows with beautiful dresses numerous times, and
had always thought this is where he wanted to bring his
daughter. When we walked in we immediately felt at ease.
The racks were filled with beautiful dresses and the ladies
in the store were immensely helpful and friendly. We
found "The Dress" quickly and had a great experience.

After looking endlessly in stores and online made an
appointment to check out mother of the bride dresses. I
had found many dresses at Grandasia that impressed me,
called them for pricing and went in to look. I was so
impressed with the quality of the dresses and the staff was
very knowledgeable and helpful. I'm a woman in my early
50's and wanted a dress that was age appropriate. Too old
for a bridesmaid dress, but too young for a rhinestone jacket. This store more than met my expectations and I purchased a dress that I am proud to wear which will not only
look beautiful but is made of quality material. My daughter ended up getting her bridesmaid dresses here along
with her shoes and jewelry. My best friend's daughter is
getting married this year and after purchasing many different dresses from online and in stores returned all them and
purchased her dress here as well. I recommend Grandasia
highly and if you want to purchase quality dresses in a
non-pushy environment I suggest you start here first.

I found myself in Grandasia as they were one of very few
locations that carried a hard to find last season bridesmaid
dress that I need quickly. I walked in explained my challenge. Not only were they able to satisfy my order, they
did it for $50 less than any other location I had calledAND the rush charge was totally reasonable. It was raining
outside so I decided to try on some wedding dresses as I
was recently engaged and though what the hell. 45 minutes later I was making a deal on a beautiful dress that I
knew was the one. Just like that I got a great deal on my
wedding dress. Picked my bridesmaid dress 3 weeks later,
did some quick alterations and it was ready the following
week and fit perfectly. Fast forward to several months later
it was time for a fitting and alterations of my wedding
dress, again outstanding service, reasonable pricing. I
ended up buying a veil as well, and left one happy bride. I
cannot recommend the women that run and work this shop
more, they are very knowledgeable, not pushy, super
friendly and know how to hook up a dress. These women
are not new to the dress game and it shows. I highly recommend the shop for quality products and exceptional
service, I will return for all fancy dress needs. ALSO they
are the best price around for wedding dress cleaning and
preservation!!!

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL #2
When I first came into Grandasia in March 2011, the first
dress I tried on I immediately had to have. The staff did an
awesome job with making sure I was 100% satisfied with
my choice. The environment is warm and fun, yet
extremely professional. They gave my dress to me in no
time and it turned out perfectly. This year shopping for
prom, Grandasia was the first place I looked for a dress,
and loved all the selections. I even ended up getting my
dress from here again. I’ve recommended it to several of
my friends who have been happy I did so. I feel confident
with trusting the staff here to get everything done perfectly
and on time. I will definitely be a client for the following
years to come.

I have gotten so many compliments about the collection of
dance shoes that I bought from Grandasia. "Wow" where
do you get those Red Satin/Silver Sparkles? "They look gorgeous!" The heel is higher than I usually wear but I can
wear them and dance 5 hours of ballroom comfortably.
They are open toe shoes without feeling open toe. My
gold dance shoes have a lower heel and even though they
have an open toe it isn't an issue. Other open toe shoes
that I bought elsewhere feel as though they are cutting into
the top of my foot. It doesn't happen in these shoes.

I live down the street from Grandasia and I used to make
fun of the dresses on their window display. But something
made me go on their website one night and I ended up
seeing a ton of Justin Alexander wedding dresses that I
liked so I decided to stop in. To my surprise, they actually
have some cute stuff. I got there a half hour before they
closed on a Friday night and tried on maybe 6 dresses. The
staff was very helpful and friendly, not pushy. I was very
comfortable the whole time even though I was there so
close to their closing time. There is a decent selection of
dresses stocked but not too overwhelming. The selection for
order is way larger in case you don't see something that
you like in the store. I had just gone to David's Bridal a
week or so before for bridesmaids dresses and had a not so
pleasant experience.....long wait, rude staff, etc. Consider
checking this place out if you are nearby. Shopping for
your wedding dress should be a good and happy experience. You will have a good experience here at Grandasia. I
ended up buying my wedding dress here and it was at a
decent price. I got a Signature Collection by Justin
Alexander. Needless to say, I won't be making fun of the
dresses on display when I drive by anymore. Overall - good
selection for all taste, decent price, good staff, good location.

We have purchased at least 4 dresses for different
occasions at Grandasia. I can’t say enough about how
wonderful our experiences have been. Everyone has been
so accommodating and the selection of dresses is the best
around. I highly recommend Grandasia. We will be coming back for many years.

I am a Caucasian female who fell in love and married a
gorgeous handsome Chinese businessman. To show respect
to my in-law’s cultural tradition, I persisted in wearing a
Chinese cheongsam (Qipao) with long sleeves for my
wedding banquet in Chinatown. After having absolutely no
luck finding one in Boston Chinatown I came to Grandasia
based on Yelp reviews. Thank God I did! Not only did they
save me a few trips to NYC's Chinatown, they customized
an existing dress to my specific (difficult) needs (I wanted
to have lacy form-fitted long sleeves!) They also did a
beautiful job tailoring a cheongsam that I brought into
them. The women in the shop are amazing, so helpful and
precise. I would recommend them to anyone who thinks
you have to go all the way to NYC to get a beautiful
cheongsam for a special occasion!

Having no luck finding bridesmaid dresses I liked for my
girls at the big wedding stores, I was referred to Grandasia
by a fellow bride. I went there with an open mind and
found myself pleasantly surprised. Grandasia has beautiful
gowns that are high quality. A bonus is the staff is very
personable there and willing to help. I decided to get my
bridesmaids dresses from there, and they are gorgeous and
well made. My mother got a beautiful mother of the bride
gown there, and I ended up getting my wedding shoes, and
wedding jewelry from there as well. I would highly recommend this store to anyone.
