Such a great experience

If you’re in the Michigan area especially Grand Rapids, I recommend Sewing Cinderella. The service I was received was beyond my expectations. I’m a future bride living in Hawaii but getting married in Michigan, and one of my biggest fears was having to travel back and forth several times for my dress fittings. Seeing Cinderella made sure I was able to get all of my fittings in while I was in Michigan so that I wouldn’t have to travel back and forth. She was kind, fast, and professional. I went back and forth between companies before deciding to go with Sewing Cinderella and I’m so glad I did. Her work is amazing and I’m so happy with my dress.

Thank you Sewing Cinderella for such a great experience.
