Ruthy is the absolute best!
I could not be more thankful to have found Ruthy! Once I got engaged, I knew that I wanted to use my mom's dress. I also knew I wouldn't fit into it and it was definitely 80s style. I came to Ruthy with this dress and a vision. She created something better than I could have ever dreamt of! My dress was absolutely perfect. I now recommend that everyone have their wedding dress custom made. It fits like a second skin, even after wearing it for over 12 hours! Not only did she make my custom dress from a wedding in 1993, she created my custom hair piece. I took her a headpiece made by my great grandmother. She create my custom hair piece and a way to attach and detach my veil! Ruthy held my hand every step of they way, over a year we worked together. She listened to every word I said. Let alone, she is just a wonderful person. She is so great to work with and become friends! She stuck with me through every fitting, weight loss, and during the special day! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for transforming me into the princess that was inside me! -

Ruthy was easily one of the nicest and most enjoyable people to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. She altered my dress perfectly--and it was A LOT of dress. We also used her amazing Wedding Fairy service (see below). I had many, many layers of tulle and lace, as well as a train that was cathedral length. There were many complexities to the dress, including lace appliques, floating lace on the shoulders and back, and very delicate "mesh" on the chest/back of the dress that all required attention, in addition to needing to be hemmed all around and the train bustled! She said this was the biggest dress/longest train she'd ever done, and she did it PERFECTLY. The dress looked, fit, and felt amazing, and the bustle for that huge train looked absolutely amazing, held in place all night, and was beautifully done so that it didn't look like I had a weird poof anywhere. Ruthy and her daughter are truly artists and I would trust them with any wedding gown!
She offers her Wedding Fairy service that ever bride should take advantage of. Ruthy comes to your location on wedding day to steam your dress (!!!) and all of your bridesmaid/Mother of the Bride dresses. She brings and emergency kit with her in case she needs to sew a button, a rip, a zipper, anything, or in case she needs to remove a stain--my junior bridesmaid had a dark pink stain of unknown source on her dress and Ruthy got it out no problem! There was no way we could have gotten my dress steamed and to the venue without wrinkling it and Ruthy solved that problem. She was also there to help me get into the dress and make sure that everything was perfect, all buttons done properly and aligned. It was such a huge relief to have her there on wedding day and she was such a funny, calming presence.
Ruthy, thank you so so so much for your hard work in making my dress absolutely perfect! It was the highlight of the wedding and I got so many compliments on how beautiful it was. -

Rebekah Sent on 09/12/2018I was very nervous about getting my gown hemmed as it was very intricate lace on the bottom. Ruthy did an amazing job preserving the pattern of the lace while making it fit like a glove :)
My husband is military and I told her my timeline of when we would be moving and she made sure the alterations were done in time! -

Britten Sent on 10/02/2017The best I am convinced on the Emerald and Gulf Coast! Ruthy was amazing - everything about my dress was perfect, and she made me feel comfortable and love what I was wearing even more than the first time I tried it on. She added a corset back, cap sleeves, bustles, and bra inserts without changing the entire look of my dress. She is flexible in her scheduling, and will absolutely work with what you are looking for! -

Bethany Sent on 02/09/2016Ruthy is without a doubt the most professional seamstress I have ever done business with! She has a fantastic pulley system that brings the dress to eye level so that she can alter it without getting the dress all bunched up and dirty (especially important for my dress (Allure 9114) because the prongs on the beading/crystals like to get caught and snag the English net if it's folded over/not being worn)! She hemmed, bustled, and steamed my dress and veil. I cannot convey how happy I was with the result. It was so beautiful, everything about it! She also altered my mother-in-law's dress for the wedding. This is a dress that my mother-in-law has had since the 80s, at least. She took it in and removed the liner from the sleeves so that it had lace sleeves - it was amazing the transformation! I recommend Ruthy for both bridal AND general alterations, the work she does is flawless. -
