Moline Kronberg

Blown away does not even begin to explain the how I feel about the work that Patricia and her team has done to restore my grandmothers 56 year old wedding dress. This dress has not been worn since her wedding day in 1966 and had been kept in a closet in the dry desert climate of Arizona with no preservation performed.

The lace had severely yellowed. The appliqués, sequins and beading had also aged over time. I was convinced that there were just going to be parts that could not be saved. I was wrong. Patricia is a dress saving angel and because of her hard work I now have the opportunity to wear my grandmother’s dress to my August 2023 wedding.

I am beyond thankful for her love and appreciation for preserving loved pieces. I could tell from the second I passed my dress over to her that she would care for it as if it was her own family’s heirloom.

I cannot thank her and the rest of the Moline Kronberg team enough!

Overall wait time: around two months
Cost: $600 ($300 up front, $300 at time of pick up)

Carmen altered my wedding dress and made an exact replica of my moms wedding dress overskirt.
The dress fit me absolutely perfectly and the overskirt turned out flawless.
The ladies listened to my concerns, addressed all of them and were just as excited as me for the day I finally was able to wear it. I feel so lucky that I found them to make my dress fit and look amazing.

Pandemic bride here! With the chaos of covid, and our postponement, I didn’t really get the chance to do most of the fun wedding prep *stuff*, like bridal shower, tasting menus, or dress shopping with my mom & my bridesmaids. Ultimately I ordered my dress online, and brought it in to Moline Kronenberg for my fitting.
Loyda and her team were incredible through the whole process, and were willing to host our whole little crew (my mom, groom’s mom, my aunt, and my bridesmaids) in their shop so that I could have the whole fitting experience. When I zipped into the dress they stood back and, instead of trying to upsell me on any changes, said that nothing needed to be altered; it fit just right. For my mom’s dress, she initially just wanted a hem. While trying on, they overheard her lamenting to my aunt about needing to find a bra that wouldn’t show with the dress’ neckline and offered to add a built in bra to the dress itself so that she would have nothing to worry about. On the day of my wedding, her dress fit her exactly as she wanted it to and she was comfortable all day thanks to the team’s updates.
Weeks later when I went back, they remembered me, asked about my mom, and even remembered the shoes that I tried on with my wedding dress. Their work is great, but their supreme level of customer service is what will keep me coming back!
