I got married for the first time in 2000. Catina was working out of a small studio in downtown Dallas, TX. I was 2 months pregnant and wanted a unique dress. She was my Angel. 2 months after I had my first consultation she advised me to get married soon because there was no more fabric left to let out to accommodate my belly lol! 26 years later I still have it and it still fits. Just can't say enough praise for Catina, or my dress ❤️ Hand sewn crystal beading on champagne sateen.

Catina was amazing to work with in helping me alter my Vera Wang Diana dress. It really felt like we were a team in tackling this huge project (obviously she did all the work, but I really felt like my ideas and input mattered to her). It wasn't an easy task - the alterations were pretty complex: she modified the neckline so it was more of a true sweetheart, she shortened the dress without compromising its artistic, swirling and asymmetrical tulle layers and put in a subtle but effective and flattering bustle, and many other things. She had a great artistic eye and knew what would work and look best on me. She was always very responsive and frequently updated me on the status, and her enthusiasm and passion was pure, enjoyable, and fun to work with. The whole process was very stress free and went very smoothly for me, which was crucial! I would definitely recommend Catina's services, she's not only skilled but has a great artistic vision and understands your needs and desires as a bride!

Working with Catina during this amazing process was an honor and a rare treat.

I began my search for my Wedding dress with image searches on Google and extended my search to every Wedding dress designer available.

Nothing seemed to be the perfect dress for me. Or even come close. There were several specific qualities that I wanted in my dress and nothing that was available was even remotely close to what I wanted.

I have to say, that this process was truly magical. I am so grateful for the opportunity to design my dress along with such a talent as Catina. Worth every minute poured into it and absolutely every dollar.

We began with the ‘inspiration’ images that I sent her and began by sketching out what I wanted Catina built the dress piece by piece over several fittings.

Catina is a truly gifted seemstress. She listened to every idea that I had and worked them into a working reality.
She had several brilliant ideas that caused the fit, feel and look of the dress to go from awesome to perfection!

I would recommend Catina to any bride who has the courage to go into this process. When I began working with Catina, I had complete confidence in her skill, but she worked with me to help me figure out exactly what would make me the happiest bride ever. Catina is at the top of her craft, an absolute gift to any bride! I am absolutely certain that it was the right decision for me!

An amazing, rewarding, fun and creative experience, Catina is a fantastic woman, completely fun human being and absolutely gifted designer.

we have resolved everything. thanks
