From the reviews and...

From the reviews and description i thought there would be more. The outfits are scarce, maybe 15-20 for all sizes for the women. I am a 16 and only had the choice of one dress (if you are bigger than that you will not have any), which I did not care for. Husband had choice of only one. The only had a few hats and the type of mask I wanted did not go with dress. We made it work but were very disappointed in the choices provided. The pictures they took were very nice and she was patient and happy to take many more. For the selfies you get 2 outdoor areas. There is no water to get pics, as it was made to seem. Overall a disappointing experience but maybe my expectations were too high.

Operator response

We are sorry to hear. In our description we are going from XS to XL. The pictures from you I saw, they were really lovely.

Fantastic experience & host 👏

Absolutely incredible experience!! I booked for just myself and brought my partner along to take photos but when we arrived we were met with a brilliant host, not only was she very patient when we were running a few minutes late, but she also allowed my partner to try on some of the men's clothing for a mini photoshoot with me when we got there! So many beautiful clothing & venetian mask options to choose from. The host was very knowledgeable & offered assistance throughout the entire experience and was lovely to chat with :) We went when it was 36⁰ (travelling from the UK) & although it was hot we were made to feel very comfortable (the building was cool and there was a shaded area outside by the canal) & the pictures turned out brilliantly. Overall a 10/10 experience & a memory I will cherish forever, I couldn't recommend this experience enough!

Never Too Old for Playing Dress-Up!

What a wildly fun activity we stumbled upon! Even jet-lagged and cranky, we thoroughly enjoyed getting dressed up and taking photos against different backdrops. The owner was there to personally welcome and assist us, and she strongly encouraged us to take our time and change up the accessories. If you are looking for something unique and off-the-beaten path, look no further.

Very nice that you was in our studio. Lovely review! Thanks!😍😍

What a wonderful experience, dressing up in itself is fun, then the gondola ride in historical clothing , a professional photographer gave tips and the reactions from the area were great, highly recommended!

Really good fun!

We had such a fun morning! I went with my two daughters aged 12 and 14 and we had the best time dressing up. We had plenty of time to choose our costumes and take photos and it was a really fun experience.

A wonderful opportunity to feel like the belle of the ball!

If you’ve ever been fascinated by Venetian carnival and their fabulous ballgowns, please do not miss this opportunity! Leonita was absolutely fantastic with myself and my partner, and extremely encouraging with the photographs! We came away with some beautiful mementos and very fond memories! I’ve shown friends and family the pictures and they’ve all been so impressed!

My granddaughter and I had a fabulous and fun experience here.It was one of the highlights of our trip to Venice ! We arrived early yet we were warmly welcomed and were excited to choose from the beautiful dresses and hats available which were stunning ! We felt like we had stepped back in time . We had beautiful professional pictures taken as well as our own from our mobiles which was great. If you are travelling to Venice this is a must ! You won't be disappointed .
