One Night Affair is the Jewel of Los Angeles!

by MNanni

I have been going to this establishment for the past 18yrs. I must say they are the the nicest most professional people I have had the pleasure of working with. I am a bridal planner & have recommended  this place to all my Brides that want to save money & look absolutely Fabulous!! Their care & patience is #1. They treat  every bridal party's special needs with the utmost care & consideration of the nervous bride. They have an enormous array of designer  wedding gowns, brides maid dresses & accessories that I have ever found. So if you want to look like a Dream on your special day, you must go & see what you've been missing all these years. This is the Jewel of Los Angeles!!

Great Find

by Susan Lee

I was recommended by a friend who got her wedding gown from One Night Affair.  I have to say I received unbelievable customer service and was treated like a Queen.  I rented a spectacular Alvina Valenta wedding gown.  It was altered perfectly and it fit me like a glove.  My Wedding date was August 8th which was a very busy day for weddings, and even though there were many of us picking up our wedding gowns at the same time, we all received very friendly and very helpful girls.  There were no problems with any of us, and we all left very excited and happy. 
I would highly recommend One Night Affair to everyone.

One Night Affair your great!

I feel that One Night Affair is the best around. I went shopping to so many places and everything looked the same, all the sales people were so pushy, I guess with the way the economy is these days that everyones desperate.

But it was my wedding day and I decided that I wasn't going to just settle.

I came to your store not imagining I would find anything. I was completely amazed with what I found and the service I received and I felt that I had to write a review, which is something I've never done before. I'm so glad I didn't listen to people telling me I needed to keep my wedding gown so I could give it to my daughter, if I had I would have never gone in....what a mistake it would have been and I would have never found the perfect dress (by the way I've never known anyone that has worn their mothers wedding gown). The store has a very cozy feel to it even though it is very large and could be very intimidating. The girls were extremely helpful, especially Kristen (the tall Blonde) She knows her stuff, she's very much to the point and knows what she's talking about. She never came off all complimentary and told me I looked great in everything, she explained what would flatter my figure in the style that I liked and she was right. I found a fabulous gown by the designer "Allure" it's beautiful, and I could have never afforded to actually go out and buy this gown, it's only for one (very special) day and I'll have beautiful pictures to look back at.

I'm thrilled with everyone at One Night Affair and would recommend them to everyone.

Academy Awards Gown was Fantastic!

by Parisheal

I was invited to the Academy Awards this year and was so honored to be invited. Since I have never attended before, I really needed to make sure that I was dressed appropriately. Someone that I got hold of at the Academy actually recommended One Night Affair Gown Rentals. They have been working with them for the past 15 years, so that was all I needed to hear. They got me in right away, and put me together so perfectly, I was totally amazed from head to toe, including the most unbelievable jewels and Mink Coat. I couldn't have asked for better service or selection of beautiful designer gowns that I could have never found in any mall or boutique. It was totally worth the drive from Newport Beach, I will do it again in a heartbeat. They also recommended I try Christian Louboutin Shoes in Costa Mesa, since it was close and their selection was fantastic! I found the most amazing pair of shoes that accented my gown perfectly, since I had a slit up the front leg, the shoe was fully exposed. I have to say that I looked just as amazing as the stars that were nominated!

Thank-you to One Night Affair and to everyone that made this possible!

• Pros: ALL GOOD!!!

You Guys are Amazing!

I've never had so much fun finding the perfect dress for a business affair/gala. One of my clients, a large hospital, had a Foundation fundraiser. I needed a "fancy" gown to wear amongst all of the wealthy patrons of the hospital foundation. The fabulous staff at One Night Affair were so great in helping me to find a dress that would look sophisticated on me. It was so much fun to try on all types of gorgeous designer gowns in an array of beautiful colors until I found a gown that was just perfect for me! In fact, the gown I selected was very similar to a gown I had seen on the Golden Globes recently. It was a little too tight around the waist - this wasn't a problem at all. Their very friendly seamstresses measured me and had the alterations done the day I picked up my beautiful gown. I was even able to rent a strapless bra that worked well underneath my dress. I felt like a princess at the affair. I could never have afforded to buy the gown I was able to rent at One Night Affair. You should have heard the compliments I received from other guests at the event.....And my boyfriend? He was overwhelmed! He said he had never seen me look quite so elegant! I'd recommend One Night Affair to anyone. Plus, what's great here is that you can only wear a dress like this one time when you buy something...so why not just rent it and get something new each time that no one has see before?

• Pros: Selection is amazing, those girls know their stuff.

Excellent Gown Rental

by LisaReviewer22

I've rented three dresses from One Night Affair and I've had an excellent experience every time. The gowns are far nicer than what I could afford on my own--plus, I don't have to show up to events wearing the same thing all the time. I get compliment after compliment! There is a huge selection of dresses and the women who work on the floor picking out dresses, etc couldn't be any more helpful. The seamstress is amazing--it's hard to believe the dress I pick up is the same one that I tried on that was many sizes too large since she fits it exactly to my body as though the dresses had been custom designed for me. The elegand dresses give me confidence at the events I attend. The only thing I'd say is that if you are renting a beaded dress to really check it over because I've had problems with all of the beads being replaced on the dresses before I pick them up for my event and I don't want to wear an expensive gown with numberous beads missing. However, as long as you stay on top of this, you couldn't find a better selction of dresses for event after event. I will continue renting from One Night Affair for as long as I have black tie events to attend.

• Pros: Great alterations, great dress selection, friendly staff
• Cons: Make sure to pay attention to the beading on the dresses even after they've been "fixed"

LOVED ONE NIGHT AFFAIR FOR YEARS!

by jamiely

I have been renting fabulous evening gown for black tie events for the last 7 years, I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. This is far to easy! The inventory is fantastic, better then any other place I could possibly go to, the selection is amazing and creative. This time I was invited to the inaugural ball at the last moment and the girls found me the perfect gown in less then an hour. They had many other inaugural ball attendees who were also getting gowns at the last moment and were able to give us all the special attention that we needed. It was actually very fun.

I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else for a fancy gown. Thumbs up to One Night Affair, I'm a lifetime customer!

My Fabulous Experience

by grtflarry

My fabulous experience at One Night Affair Gown Rentals

I was recently told be my daughter she was going to the winter formal next Saturday.

I then spent 2 days of torture shopping the malls with my daughter for a dress.

After wasting 8 hours in the malls a friend told me about a store that rents designer gowns called One Night Affair. I called them and made an appointment to bring my daughter in the next day.

When we arrived the store was filled with customers looking for wedding and evening gowns.

We were told to have a seat and someone would be right with us.

In about five minutes a lovely young lady came over to my daughter and said "hi sweety describe to me your dream dress".

She then took my daughter to an area where it seemed like there were thousands of dresses.

Within minutes my daughter picked out 4 dresses which she wanted to try on.

With joy the third dress she tried on was the one! She looked gorgeous!

The dress needed an alteration which was completed in about ten minutes while my daughter tried on beautiful jewelry also for rent.

Also while waiting we noticed two brides renting their wedding gowns.

If possible they seemed happier than us. To me It just makes sense to rent a spectacular wedding or evening gown that you will never wear again.

Very Helpful

by MG111

Very helpful

Not wanting to have a large box with a wedding dress I'll never wear again I decided to rent. From the outside the window display looks old because of the intense sun, it destroys and fades the gowns within a few weeks, so don't be mislead by that, the gowns inside are gorgeous and in excellent condition!!! It's an appointment only store and there might be a problem with parking.The shop has a LOT of dresses. I had a mid week mid morning appointment.

Initially I wanted a mermaid and the shopkeeper told me to look in that section. With the shopkeper's help I tried on some mermaid dresses and could see that my body type did not fit the mermaid style. So we continued with a different style and after some time I found a dress that looked good on my not very thin frame. This model had sown on! beads all over it. It was a silk dress. Would have been very expensive to buy. It was a designer's dress!

The shopkeeper is a non-nonsens woman who says if something looks good (and doesn't say anything if the customer wants something that may not look good.) If asked the shopkeeper gives an honest opinion.

After the lenghty first time there to choose dress the fitting session was quick and so was pick-up and return. Dry cleaning and extra petticoats if I wanted that, was included in the price.

My overall experience was good. I got a stunning dress, people at the wedding were impressed, it looks great on photos and the shopkeeper was helpful in finding the dress and gave me honest answers when I asked for them. The dress I finally chose was a silk dress. (Polyester can look blue-ish.)

I'm happy with my rented dress and would recommend the store to everyone.

• Pros: Quality, service and prices
• Cons: Parking
