Patty made all my wedding dress dreams come true. It was a complete JOY to work with her and Corina. I wanted to wear the same dress that my grandmother and my mom were married in, however, over time the satin had significantly yellowed. I called other bridal shops and spoke with other designers and they told me they could make a completely new dress and that we could copy the style of the original. And then I talked to Patty at L’ezu. She understood WHY I wanted to use the same, original fabric, and didn’t try to talk me out of it. My mom and I met with her, brought the dress, and she worked with us to imagine something new and wonderful, using the original fabric so that I could be the third generation to say “I Do” in it. Patty is truly an artist. Working with her was a highlight of our entire wedding planning process. She was delightful and sweet and she made the dress of my dreams. It was amazing to have an original design. She layered organza over the satin so that it no longer looked yellow. She took into account the wedding venue and our style so that the dress fit in with everything. My grandmother, and everyone at the wedding, thought it was so special that I was wearing the same fabric, and couldn’t believe how it had been transformed to create a timeless dress that was so me. I am so in love with the dress and our experience at L’ezu!

I tried on a few dresses before I went to L'Ezu. I got frustrated with sales associates who knew less than me about fabrics or styles. I also hated the idea of picking a dress, having it "custom made" for me in an approximate size, and then 6 months later have to pay to actually get it tailored to my body. Instead, at L'Ezu they made a dress just for me, and it is incredible! Simple, elegant, and made with a beautiful silk mikado in ivory. From the beginning, all the decisions were made to accentuate my best features, and as a result, the dress not only fit perfectly but is also extremely comfortable. Corina and Patty know their stuff! They were incredible to work with from day one, advising me on different aspects of the design, and making each visit a true joy. In their studio, I always felt like a bride -- not because there was champagne lying around or because I came in with a bunch of girlfriends, but because they wanted to make my wedding dress exactly as I wanted it, and that is what they did. I can't thank them enough for giving me that gift. They are truly exceptional!

My wedding was magical, in no small part to the Ladies at L'ezu Altier. As I stood outside a gorgeous Spanish villa, on Chumash Indian land, under a naked tipi surrounded by bougainvillea blooms with a bright floral splash of color snaking down my dress, I felt so beautiful. Simply put ... Corina and Patty are a dream! After scouring all the designer bridal shops LA has to offer, I was exhausted and nowhere closer to finding my dream dress for my big day. What I finally found after my exhausting search was an off-the-rack dress at a discount bridal outlet ... but it still wasn't quite what I had imagined; I wanted color. I wanted something unique and wild and floral, and as far as I could tell ... it just didn't exist regardless of the amount one was prepared to spend. When I decided to look into a re-style I visited a few designers before I found the magic pair at L'ezu. What I got before them was stuffy women trying to talk me out of my vision: "You don't want that much color ... you don't want this, or that." What a relief it was to sit down on the elegant sofa in the L'ezu studio. Corina and Patty immediately got what I was after and had fabric specially made to add to my dress. The result ... better than I dreamed! The whole process from beginning to end was so fabulous. Corina was great at communicating with me about the status of the re-styling, and they were so kind during each fitting. All my ideas and concerns were heard, and these ladies created PURE MAGIC. I felt like a Spanish princess; wearing a dress wholly unique. My husband was overwhelmed and I got soooo many compliments. Best day of my life in no small part to the L'ezu ladies. I cannot recommend them more highly. Wonderful, amazing, beautiful artists!
