Marya is very talented

I am shocked by how well Marya altered my dress! My dress was altered so well that it fit me like a glove and I couldn’t believe how amazing it was! My dress had lots of beading on it, and she was able to easily alter it without damage to the dress and kept it looking good. Marya also gave me a very good price that I would not be able to find anywhere else. I really recommend Marya’s alterations because of her ability to alter and talent when it comes to alterations. Finally, she was quick to answer and set an appointment for me fairly quick.

Beyond Satisfied Senior Bride

Marya does beautiful work.

As a senior bride (61) my needs were different. I wanted a very basic but elegant dress with pockets (for my reading glasses and a tissue) 😊 I was not looking for a gown. I found a picture on Pinterest and showed it to Marya-she measured me, created a pattern and within weeks, I had a beautiful dress. My first meeting with Marya was in mid-May. She advised that she advised me that the timeline was shorter (my wedding was August 25th) than she normally works in but on August 8th, I picked up the most beautiful dress-I cried happy tears all the way home.

I HIGHLY reccommend

Highly highly recommend!

I cant recommend Marya enough. She was incredibly kind, professional, clearly experienced, and very affordable (compared to prices i received at several bridal boutiques).

My dress was originally strapless with puffy detached sleeves and when I told her my vision, she turned it into a v neck with a plunge with flutter sleeves. It turned out beautifully. I cant thank her enough.

Amazing experience!!

I absolutely loved working with Marya! She did a fantastic job altering my wedding dress. She has such a kind, motherly presence that instantly made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. She was always so accommodating and patient, and truly made the experience feel personal and stress-free. At my final fitting, she worked with my tight timeline to make a last-minute change I requested — and made it happen without hesitation. The dress turned out absolutely perfect and fit like a dream. I could not recommend her enough!

Wedding dress alteration!

Marya was a dream to work with! I reached out to her with just over a month until my wedding day and she made it work! She was quick to schedule my initial meeting and was completely transparent about price and the work that needed to be done. I initially thought I just needed my dress hemmed, but she was knowledgeable enough to recommend taking in the waist so my strapless dress would stay up all night. I have never felt better in a dress and it is all thanks to Marya! 100% recommend her to anyone looking for wedding dress alterations.

Life saver

My dress was nothing like what I tried in at the bridal shop. They pinned me into it and made me feel like it would be the shape I wanted. But it really was a completely different silhouette than I wanted. I cried my eyes out when I got my dress. When I tell you Marya basically took my dress and made it a custom gown, I am not exaggerating. She changed the shape of the gown to exactly what I wanted and never ever said she couldn’t do any of the alterations I asked for. HIGHLY recommend

I cannot say enough good things about Marya!

I truly feel so lucky to have found Marya design. I bought a wedding dress, which was a simple design but had a massive train, which I didn't feel particularly comfortable wearing for my relatively casual wedding that didn't have a ceremony. When I was buying the dress, I was told that it would be impossible to remove the train while maintaining the shape of the dress, so I had resigned myself to needing to add a bustle and would just wear it bustled the whole time. When I told Marya what I hoped for, she didn't blink an eye before saying she could remove the train and keep it even all the way around. When she showed me the dress to approve at my second appointment, I was truly speechless. It looked like it was designed that way and looked even better than I could have imagined.

So already, she was a true wizard to me, but I ended up using her again to add a lining to another dress I bought for the courthouse, which I loved but had an inner bodysuit that was totally visible through the white fabric. She took out the bodysuit and added a lining so it was not only beautiful, but also way more comfortable to wear.

She is an absolute magician, so professional and so incredibly talented. And reasonably priced for the highest quality. What more could you ask for?

Saved my wedding!

Marya helped save my wedding! I got married in June 2024 and I had to buy a brand new dress two weeks before my wedding. My original wedding dress was altered by another tailor and ruined. That’s when I reached out to Marya as I needed a new tailor for my new dress. I explained the situation and she miraculously squeezed me into her schedule. We had 3 appointments in those two weeks and throughout each, you could tell she has such amazing attention to detail and extremely good at what she does. I ended up loving my new dress better than the original one and it’s all thanks to Marya! I highly recommend her for any brides looking for alterations in the area!

Miracle worker!

Amazing!!! Marya is extremely talented and her work is flawless! With only six days until my wedding, Marya graciously made time for me and altered my dress to fit me to perfection. I cannot say enough how grateful I am to Marya! I absolutely recommend her to anyone seeking alterations!
