Rachel K. Sent on 12/01/2021Best seamstress in the valley, hands down
Alisa is amazing!!! She did my wife’s wedding dress and our 11 yr old’s pants and vest. She is so kind and easy to work with, and goes above and beyond in everything she does. She is detail-oriented, and takes such care with everything. It all turned out so gorgeous and led to a perfect day. She even bonded with our young daughter, and taught her some sewing tricks! I would give more than 5 stars if I could!Only the Best Bridal Couture's reply:

I can try to explain how amazing Alisa is at her job, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to fall very short! Let me start by saying she is THE sweetest woman I have met in a LONG time! You can see she throws her heart into everything she does. That was apparent the moment I met her. I won my (custom) dress from Alisa back at a Bridal Expo. I was in shock; went up to the stage crying, and she was all smiles and giggles as she congratulated me and told me to contact her as soon as I was ready. Flash forward to almost 1.5 years later. I finally reached out, and without hesitation, she remembered me! We sat down and I showed her my design concept. She was still all giggles and smiles. For the next year, she worked feverishly at creating what I can only consider a masterpiece. We met routinely. She was always kind, courteous, and funny! She listened to every detail and every anxiety I had about the dress. She eased my fears. She took what I had only imagined and seen, drawn out by my sloppy sketching based on a dress I had seen, and she created something worth saving for my daughter and her daughter and future generations. My dress was no easy feat either. The entire mermaid base detached so it became a cocktail dress for the reception. The skirt had these beautiful loops that made it look like it was constantly twirling. It had a 4 foot trail that just seemed to flow like a river. The sleeves were lace. The body was a beautiful thick silk organza. And the best part... It's BLACK!! I could not have asked for a more perfect dress! Or a more perfect designer! She even altered my Bridal Party dresses! I mean... WOW! She worked through all the holidays and covid just so she could get my dress done in time for my wedding on Dec 5th. I'm so blissfully happy she did too! Everyone present and watching on FB was in awe of the dress! I'm still getting remarks about it! I don't have a single negative thing to say about this wonderful, heart on her sleeve, love for what she does woman!! I would go back to her any time!!!Only the Best Bridal Couture's reply:
OMG Brandy!!! First, my apologies because I am just seeing this beautiful review now - a whole year later! Don’t know how I missed it, but I’m happy I saw it! It was like living the moments all over again! You were a joy to work with, and I loved bringing your creation to life! Your dress was clearly one of the highlights of my year! Best wishes to you always and Happy Anniversary! 🥰 -

Alisa is wonderful to work with and she does an amazing job! I brought in 2 lace wedding dresses. My dresses were purchased online. They needed a little love to make them my dream dresses and I'm so thankful that I brought them to Alisa. She listened to all of my requests and made sure that I was completely happy with my dresses before handing them over to me. Not only was she extremely talented, but she was also so kind and sweet.
I have my dream dress thanks to Alisa!Only the Best Bridal Couture's reply:
Thank you India! Your dresses were lovely and I was happy to work with you in getting the perfect fit. I was pleasantly surprised myself with how well the sweetheart neckline turned out, And the Avocado Toast will never be forgotten! Thank you for being such a sweetheart! Wishing you and your hubby all the best! -

If I could give Alisa 6 stars I would. She was absolutely amazing!! I purchased a sample designer gown about 3 sizes too large (I thought it would fit based on the measurements) and about 6 inches too long. I had no idea if my dream dress could be salvaged. Enter Alisa, and she created magic. She not only altered the gown to fit me like a glove, she took the time to remove the hand-stitched lace from the hem, hem the dress, and then re-stitch on the lace so I did not lose any of the beauty or character of the dress. She was a patient angel who made my dress exactly what I wanted. If you need a dress made or altered, go to her. I do not care where you are in the state of Arizona, she is worth the drive. I drove 2.5 hours from Flagstaff to see her about 5 times over the course of my engagement and each trip was made completely worth it with the finished product.Only the Best Bridal Couture's reply:
Thank you Anna! You are amazing! I’mso honored that you chose me and were willing to travel so far for your fittings! I enjoyed every minute of working with you. You are a beautiful person and a gorgeous bride! Thank you for the lovely review and best wishes to you and Hubby! -

Alisa is very detail oriented, she takes her time to make sure you’re comfortable and happy, AND she’s genuinely a very nice person and fun to talk to. Highly recommend Alisa for alterations! She also makes her own beautiful gowns!!! -

In the initial appointment, it was discussed that I needed the bodice taken in, the dress hemmed, a bustle, two layers of crinoline taken out of the skirt and my veil had a small tear at the end that I asked her to fix.
We had appointments every 2 weeks, 3 months prior to the wedding where this was discussed.
Two weeks before my wedding, I went in for my last appointment to pick up the dress. The hem was not complete & was way too long. There was a layer underneath that had not been hemmed at all. We spent an hour and a half while she took fabric scissors to the hem & cut it while I was standing in the dress. The bustle did not hold up the dress up & half of the train was still on the floor. She said she needed more time to finish the hem & I told her the bustle was not what I wanted. She became very defensive, saying it would cost more money (but didn’t know the cost) to “change” the bustle & that Id need to come back the following weekend. While trying to discuss when I’d come back & exactly what needed to happen with the bustle, she started vacuuming while I was talking & acted completely unprofessional and rude.
After leaving that appointment, I was in tears with a pit in my stomach.
I ended up contacting her before the next weekend. On the phone, she told me that she didn’t know how much time the “changes” I wanted to the bustle would take (which to me, these were not changes, they weren’t done right to begin with) & she would call me later in the week to let me know, as she was fully booked the rest of the week with only a couple mid day appointments left & the next Saturday would likely be the only time I could come in. She then told me that at the last appointment, my dress made a mess on her floor with the glitter & lace she cut off. That she usually doesn’t take Martina Liana dresses because they are complicated & she was doing me a favor from the beginning. Which when you’re paying someone a lot of money for alterations, I don’t know how they are doing you a favor?
She was making me feel like this was somehow my fault & told me how tired she was & acted completely frustrated with me. In tears again, I had a pit in my stomach that I’d need to find another seamstress within two weeks of my wedding to finish the dress.
My fiancé ended up calling her because I was so upset. I don’t know what changed, but after talking to him, her script completely flipped. Within two hours of him calling that same day, she called me back saying that she’d have the dress done the same day & that I could pick it up that afternoon.
Of course I went that day to get it. I will say that the hem was done & looked good. The top of the dress fit well. The bustle was still too long, but at that point, anything was better than what she had at the previous appointment. She charged me an extra $610 on top of the original quote for the “change” in the bustle, added cups (which we did add on) & said that in the original quote, she didn’t include taking out two layers of crinoline or fixing the veil so had added costs for that, which was simply not true.
At this point I was so beside myself & just wanted my dress & to be done with her. I paid & left with the dress.
The next weekend, a week away from my wedding, I took the dress to another seamstress to fix the bustle.
If you’re planning a wedding, you know this is the last thing you want to worry about two weeks prior to your wedding. Writing this to say, I would never wish this experience on anyone else.
