    Highly recommend!

    The Seamstress did an excellent job with my alterations in a short amount of time (1 week)! They even made me scrunchies with my extra fabric that is so cute. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

    The Seamstress was my life savor!

    I bought my dress only 2 weeks before my wedding, I know I procrastinated! But they had my dress altered to perfection and added a bustle as well. It was absolutely perfect and I appreciate them for helping me with such little time. Thank you!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Heidy,

    Exceptional service! Nancy made great alterations and the dress fit me like a glove.

    Nancy did an awesome job. I love the way my dress came out. She was able to cinche the corset part and raise the hemline without altering the “look” of the dress. It came out perfect. And in a timely fashion too.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Debora,

    Amazing work!

    Nancy did an absolutely fantastic job with my wedding dress alterations! I was fairly nervous due to the amount of beading and detail on the dress, but it turned out amazing! My bustle was perfect and easy for my MOH to find. I would absolutely recommend them for any of your tailoring needs!

    Hannah,

    The Best Seamstress in town!

    I have been coming here for awhile now and when I was getting married I couldn't help but notice all the wedding dress photos on the walls. It was a no brainer for me and I am so glad I did - my dress turned out so beautiful and fit me perfectly. I was never stressed or worried about the fittings - so easy!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Thank you, Sarah. You look so beautiful in that dress. We are so glad to be a part of your wedding celebration.

    Seamless & quality work by Nancy!

    Nancy did a beautiful job on my wedding dress: adding a bustle and changing the length of the straps. She was recommended by my new sister-in-law who had Nancy do various alterations, all of which came out to her liking! I will definitely be using Nancy again for any alterations and highly recommend her! Thank you, Nancy!! :)

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Jessica,

    The bustle turned out to be so cute. I hope you liked it. You look great on that gown, gal.

    Saved the day! Best. Place. Ever!

    The Seamstress is THE BEST!!!! Nancy came to the rescue when my wedding dress was altered incorrectly at a different company… 7 DAYS before my wedding I was told the mistake it wasn’t reversible and there was nothing I could do (by another company). I thought I’d have to go wedding dress shopping :( BUT Nancy agreed to see my THAT NIGHT and assured that she would fix my gown! She made it perfect!! And was so quick! I came back a few times that week of my wedding and for a few additional small fixes, she made that same day! I was blown away with her skill and effort she put towards my dress!! The absolute BEST!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Amber,
    Thank you. You look amazing on that dress, and we are glad that we could help.

    Frankly, I was a bit skeptical at first since fixing work done improperly by someone else isn't easy,but you and I pulled it through together.

    I could not recommend Nancy more! She was extremely affordable and provided such a high quality of service! She did amazing work on my wedding gown that had a lot of fragile mesh material and multiple layers. She was very responsive and was amazing to work with!

    Amazing Seamstress

    Miss Nancy was very accommodating and did a wonderful job on my wedding dress on such short notice. Highly recommend!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Brandy,

    Ideally, we advise our brides to schedule their initial fitting 6 to 8 weeks prior to the wedding date. Fitting too early can create more adjustments, but too close, it can be stressful and risky.

    You look beautiful, and that truly matters. Thank you for having confidence in me and my team.

    Wedding dress alterations

    I bought a wedding dress from a sample sale and it was too big. They were able to size it down perfectly in a timely manner.

    Denise,

    Sometimes, finding the perfect gown even though the size isn't is still better. Abd usually, thatbis where our work can help. You look amazing on that dress.

    Outstanding!

    Outstanding service. I had a complicated alteration for my wedding dress due to the amount of lace she had to remove and then replace from the skirt. She did an amazing job. I am so happy I had her alter my dress.

    Thank you so much.

    Ideally, we asked our brides to plan 6 to 8 weeks prior to the wedding day. It would take 2 or 3 fitting sessions. We were able to expedite your dress in less than a month.

    If possible, please send us some of your pictures. We would love to show the world how beautiful ypu look on that dress, Taylor.

    This woman took so much time and effort on my dress. She had it back to me within a month and let me tell you I had 8 layers to my dress. She gave me beautiful bustles for my train that were easy. I will go to her for all seamstress needs. Not to mention she makes you laugh!

    Only person to trust with my dress!

    I bought a designer dress from Sarah Seven and the store told me Nancy at The Streamstress was the only alterations place they would recommend handle my dress because of Nancy's experience with their fabrics and dresses. Nancy was way faster than I'd expected, a reasonable price (for a wedding dress), and super easy to work with. She also included thoughtful details like changing out the hanger straps for easier removal on the day of the wedding and making a mask for me that matched the dress fabric and color. Would definitely recommend! I got so many compliments on my dress.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Adrienne,
    Thank you so much for your kind work. You look so beautiful on that gown. All I did was to adjust it a little for you here and there. Sarah 7 is famous for for elegant simplicity.

    Turned Out Great!

    I was referred to Nancy by Pat at White Blossom Bridal. She told me she was very well versed in bustling trains and pulling up the straps of my dress. My gown was all lace and I was very concerned that it would ripped or torn as my train was very long! Nancy did an amazing job pinning everything up for me to see what it would look like before I made any final decisions. Her prices were completely reasonable and she did a great job making everything perfect!

    Jennifer,

    Thank you so much for your kind words. Somehow, we did not see your review until today. We are so happy and proud to be part of your journey.

    Perfect, great experience, exactly what I wanted

    Nancy was wonderful! I am so happy I was referred to her. I came in with the wedding dress of my dreams, however I needed quite a bit of work done on it for it to fit me perfectly. Nancy listened to all of my wants and desires and worked her magic. Such a nice, professional, and friendly family business.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Dear Shaina,

    That's what our family business is for. We are so happy to hear that the dress fitted you perfectly. Thank you for letting us be a part of your wedding.

    Kind, professional, and exceptional work!

    Nancy was incredibly kind during my appointments to her business for my wedding dress alterations. During this time of COVID, she was still able to provide a safe space for my mother and a couple members of my bridal party to view my dress during the appointment. She formed a beautiful French bustle on my wedding gown that worked beautifully during the reception. I highly recommend Nancy and her team at The Seamstress!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Shannon,
    You are such a beautiful bride with a caring soul. My husband Tony kept asking me why I kept smiling all day yesterday. I simply showed him your review with loving words. Thank you. We love you!

    Flawless and Stress Free

    As if planning a wedding during COVID wasn't stressful enough, we also added a move to the mix. My local wedding became a destination and we overcame many challenges to make our wedding happen. I didn't have time to shop around so I can't comment on the price. My friend recommended her and I'm so happy she did. She did an incredible job! The entire process was stress free and she even made me a mask out of the extra material. I 100% recommend the Seamstress!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Cstherine,

    We love your feedback. That's exactly where we strive to be, the "flawless and stress free" alteration service provider of yours, especially in the middle ofvsuch an unprecedent pandemic we are in. We are also well known as a reasonable offeror. Thank you for sending us your pictures. We love both of them.

    Great Service

    The Seamstress did an amazing job with altering my dress. It was easy to make an appointment and they worked on my dress fairly quick. I wasn’t expecting to spend as much as I did but my whole dress pretty much needed to be altered. Highly recommended.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Brianna,

    May I have some pictures of you on that elegant gown to share on our Facebook?

    Spectacular work and very affordable!

    I can’t say enough good things about them! My dress was fitted to me perfectly the first time around and she added a bustle to my train that everyone thought was gorgeous and was perfect for dancing at my reception. 10/10 will absolutely use them again!

    Amazing Experience

    As Mother of The Bride I wanted something chic and sophisticated. I fund the dress of my dreams but the designer was in Europe and I did not have time to fly back and forth for fittings. Nancy looked at a picture of my dream dress, made some recommendations and not only turned it into a reality but made it even better. I could not have asked for a more wonderful experience.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Theresa,
    We did it together and achieved the goal, getting something chic and sophisticated at the same time. That was a fun project, and you were such a lovely client for me to work with. :)

    Absolutely THE BEST seamstress and tailoring services! The shop is CLEAN and inviting. Hieu has many years of experience and you can completely trust her with your expensive clothing. I bought a very expensive couture wedding gown for my daughter -- online! It was beautiful but needed to be tailored -- who to trust with such a beautiful gown. I read some negative reviews about this establishment. But after doing more research -- I realized that the bad reviews were BOGUS. The previous owner thought enough of Hieu (she did all the work for her business for many years!) to leave the business to her in her estate plan. When the previous owner died suddenly and unexpectedly, it was a complete shock to Hieu. She continued to work around the clock to take care of work in progress. When she later learned of her inheritance, she later also learned how unfair and unkind jealous people can be. I can san without reservation that I would trust Hieu with any tailoring/seamstress project of any magnitude or value. She did beautiful work on my daughter's wedding gown. She also made a matching lace jacket -- exactly what my daughter had envisioned! It was perfect. In addition, she tailored my wedding suit, another slack outfit and a blazer for my husband. I have never had clothes fit so well. She made me look younger and thinner on my daughter's wedding day! What more could I ask? I'll tell you -- I made two new great friends -- Hieu and Bicky. Great friends for life. I have referred several customers who have called to tell me how pleased they are with the services and courtesy they received at The Seamstress in Winter Park! This shop always was and IS THE BEST SEAMSTRESS IN THE WINTER PARK/ORLANDO AREA! Don't go anywhere else! My daughter (and her new husband) will be loyal customers as well. Trust me. I'm picky. Very picky. And when I say something is good -- it's GREAT!

    Thank you so much for your kind words. We promise to keep up the good work.

    Judi is a fairy godmother with the ability to make your dress shine, not a genie in a bottle granting wishes! I bought a beautiful princess wedding dress and Judi and her team made the dress perfect for me. Off the rack the dress made my boobs look cone shaped and the neck tie looked sloppy. Judi made alterations around the chest to give me a nice round chest and turned the straps at the top into a clasp which elevated the overall look of the dress.

    When I went for my first fitting Judi asked if I would like for her to sew in the corset I purchased to wear under the dress and cut it down so it did not appear at the top of the dress. I didn't even know this was a possibility. Having my undergarment in the dress gave me an added sense of security I didn't even know I wanted. Judi also taught my sister how to bussel the dress so she knew what to do the day of my wedding.

    For the people that purchase dresses that are too small for them or that gain weight after purchasing their dress you cannot go in and expect Judi to make you smaller... it just doesn't work like that. If you think you are going to lose 20 pound in 2 months... Realty check... you mostly likely won't.

    Judi is loving and kind and provides all of the right support that you need leading up to your big day! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Judi!! <3

    I dont care what anyone says, Judi is a fairy godmother! First off, I bought the wedding dress of my dreams. It was gorgeous with amazing intricate beading and many many layers. Sadly I ordered a dress that was 1 (maybe 2) sizes too small. I was so upset. I thought I was not going to be able to wear it. I took it to Judi and she was brutally honest with me (which is what I wanted and needed to hear). She told me that she CAN take some out but that her biggest suggestion was to try to loose a few pounds. Im not overweight by any means. I am 5'4" at 124lbs. I wanted to loose about 5 lbs and tone up for the wedding anyways. Judi did not offend me at all mostly because I brought up loosing weight first. She was super nice and made me feel so much better knowing we could make my dress work. I lost the weight and judi made the dress fit perfectly! She even added beautiful ruffling to the top to make it a litte more modest and it looked like it was suppose to be on the dress. I LOVED IT. If it wasnt for Judi, I would not have been the beautiful princess I was on my wedding day.
    THANK YOU!!!!

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Jodie,
    I am not sure if you know, Judy passed away in May 2017. In May 2018, we took over The Seamstress and have tried to continue her legacy.

    If you happen to be in the area, please stop by to say hello.

    Judi is a pro! We took my dress here to fix what another alterations place around the corner had completely screwed up. My mom was so unhappy with the way the original place had done my bustle and insisted we take it to get another opinion. She found The Seamstress after a recommendation from my bridesmaid.

    Judi took a look at the bungled bustle and promised she would be able to fix it quickly (1 week before the wedding!) and cheaply. She was extremely helpful, understanding, and knew her stuff. I do think she has a very dry sense of humor, which some may mistake for curtness or rudeness, but if you banter back with her, you will soon realize she is actually very friendly and really, really funny!

    She corrected the mistakes of my previous alterations place and it came out looking better than I could have imagined. I wish Wedding Wire would let me upload Before and After photos to show how much of an improvement Judi was able to make. Contact me if you want to see the photos. Her expertise, turnaround time, and price were all invaluable to me. I will certainly use her in the future, and I would recommend her to any bride without hesitation. Thank you, Judi!

    Upon arrival for my final appointment, I discovered that I needed the dress taken in 2 more inches! The seamstress was calm, and was able to make this alteration, as well as a few more THAT DAY! I would greatly recommend her work to anyone looking for wedding dress alterations in the Orlando area.

    I was so nervous about finding the right person to trust with my dress & when I found The Seamstress website I just knew I had found the right person. I was so right! She is so knowledgeable & friendly I immediately felt at ease. My dress came out perfect and at a fraction of the cost a bridal shop would charge. I will definitely be back!

    AWESOME vendor! I bought my dress from a store that included alterations. However, when I decided they were not up to par the week before my wedding The Seamstress fit me in to their schedule to perform the alteration I needed in breakneck speed. After the wedding I returned to them to replace the ruined lace at the bottom of my dress and they gave me advice on how to resell the dress. Really impressed with this store.

    Judi and her team know dress fitting and alterations! Heather Snively at Weddings Unique recommended I go there and she did not steer me wrong. The team there fit the dresses perfectly and even helped a bridesmaid who needed some last minute alterations. I now use The Seamstress for my other alternations.

    I've gone to Judy for a bridesmaid dress in the past and after being put off by the salon's seamstress where I got my wedding dress I decided to see if I could make an appointment to get my wedding dress altered, just 3 weeks before my wedding. She added an appliqué to the sash on my dress, sequins from my grandmother's dress and a 5 point bustle. My dress was ready in two weeks to pick up and looked fantastic.

    Didn’t miss a detail

    My dress was heavily beaded and The Seamstress was able to shorten it several inches without a single detail out of place.

    I bought a strapless dress and decided I wanted to add an illusion neckline to make the dress more unique. I brought pictures in to show Judi and she made the just the top I was looking for. It is fantastic! Judi helped find the lace to construct the top AND a matching veil! The other reviewers are correct. Judi is very honest and can sometimes come across as abrasive. However, you are getting honest advice and definitely a well-made product. I was very pleased with my final dress and veil! (She also was able to take in 7 inches off a poorly-measured bridesmaid dress 3 days before the wedding!!) I will definitely go to Judi for any future alterations.

    Amazing Work with Lace!!

    My dress was the East Gown by Rue De Seine which made for alterations more difficult due to the lace work. Nancy did an amazing job with it! You couldn’t even tell that it had any alterations.

    Thank you,
    Nancy 🤍

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Shannon,
    Last Sep and Oct, we were so busy that we couldn't accomodate some schedule for our customers. Having said that, we appreciated your feedback and are glad that you recognized a great deal of work that I and my team did on your gown. Thank you.

    I felt compelled to write a review after seeing some of the negative reviews as I had a fantastic experience with Judy. I purchased a sample gown that needed to be cleaned, required 3 inches to be taken in, needed to be hemmed, and it needed a bustle. Judy and her team turned the over sized sample dress into my dream gown and I could not have been more happy with the fit and overall look. While Judy may not be super outgoing and friendly she knows what she is doing and at the end of the day having a perfectly altered dress is all that really matters.

    Nancy was a delight in the middle of my pandemic wedding planning

    Getting married in the middle of a pandemic was not an easy thing to plan. I got my dress 1 month before my August wedding and I immediately started calling around to see who would be able to tailor my dress in time. I got quite a few “you need 10+ weeks” or “with that short of a turn around it will be expensive.” Finally my friend found Nancy and she was a delight! She said she could have my dress ready in just a couple weeks and was estimating to be half of what everyone else’s beginning prices were! When we went to take my dress in we became a little worried about the fit of the dress, quarantine pounds had definitely gotten to me, and the dress ordered in my size 6months prior was a bit small on the top, once again the wonderful Nancy said that it wouldn’t be a problem and said she’d be able to pull from the seams on the dress and the zipper to make it fit and she pulled it off perfectly! While she had my dress she trimmed off some of the extra fabric and set up the bustle for me. The length was perfect all around! The only downside was the bustle, it sadly did not stay up and I found myself tripping over the back side and in the bathroom trying to pin it up quite often, luckily I had a friend who needed just two safety pins and she helped pin it up and get it out of the way. Nancy was an absolute delight and she managed to do what seemed impossible in fitting me in my dress in such a short amount of time. My friend got her bridesmaid dress hemmed as well and I plan on going back to Nancy whenever I need something tailored.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Hayli,

    Thank you for your good review. We strive to get a 5.0 rating every time. We hope you found our expeditious service helpful.

    We are so sorry to hear about the bustle. All of our efforts to make it versatile can be at risk if someone steps on and danages the hooks and/or connectors. Also. It is hard for the bride to reconnect it., so we usually recommend a bridesmaid or someone to help. Otherwise, this should have been the best since we were so happy to turn it around in a short notice for you.

    We wish you and your family a happy and prosperous new year.

    Vr,
    Nancy

    I contemplated leaving a review but thought it might help a future bride! Judi was just not good to work with....at all. She seemed to be put out with any request and even when me and my bridesmaids tried to lighten up the mood and engage in conversation she was just not having it? My alterations were EXPENSIVE and I mean SERIOUSLY! For what she did I was taken back for sure! I brought my mom in with me one of the visits and Judi did not even speak a word to her?? If she hadn't already begun working on my dress I would have taken it some place else. It would really serve her well to focus on how she works with brides to be....because honestly there was nothing enjoyable about my visits with her....I felt like my dress was held hostage so I had to endure her but there is no way I would make a return visit! Hopefully she reads this and realizes with better prices and a much better attitude people will be a lot more likely to send business her way!

    I hate leaving negative reviews - in fact I am not sure I have ever done so - but just felt a bride on a budget should know to steer clear of this place or at the very least get a hard quote in writing prior to dropping off dress.

    My alterations ended up being more than half of what I paid for my dress (close to $500!) and I burst into tears when I got into the parking lot...who has that kind of money lying around the week before their wedding after all vendors paid? =(

    She added cups and took in 6 inches, as well as brought up the hem a few inches. Maybe I am very ignorant in want others pay for this type of thing but I just wish she called to update me on price before I picked it up so I wasn't in such drastic sticker shock.

    I guess I also sort of thought that since it was in Winter Park, a very nice area, maybe the level of service would be great. Or at least the high price would make me less nauseous if they had made me feel like a bride...but I felt that the lady was mad at me and my friends and couldn't wait for us to get out of there (when we dropped it off and then again when we picked it up)/ My friends were devastated with how the lady was talking to me, I was embarrassed but I didn't want to make a scene so I gave them a look to just get out of there. However, I didn't want another bride to have to deal with that stress when it comes to alterations. Please feel free to hit me up if you have ANY other questions or want more specifics. There are a lot more kind, affordable and honest / upfront / transparent alteration vendors in town, including who my fiance used for his suit. "M alterations by Soon" in altamonte, Le's aterations, etc.

    When I first took my dress to Judi, I felt like I was in great hands, especially considering she was recommended by the store where I purchased my wedding gown. Unfortunately, when I came back to pick up my dress, I thought it was too short. She assured me that I was wrong and it was altered exactly where it should me. She kind of make me feel like I was crazy so I went home and tried it on again, looked at pictures of other brides in my dress, and I was confident that she did not alter my dress correctly. She not only cut the dress too short, but practically redesigned the ruffle pattern on the skirt by stopping them a few inches short from the bottom of the dress. After going back to the store to compare my dress and the original, it was clear that she had made a mistake. We took the dress back to Judi in which she was rude, short, and refused to look at the pictures of the original dress design. She made me feel awful, like she did not care a bit about her customers. Although she "fixed" the length of the dress without charging more, she had me driving home in tears because I had NO confidence that she was going to take good care of the very expensive dress that I purchased for my wedding day. She is not personable unless you are telling her what she wants to hear, and charged way too much for her services. I also felt that the bodice of the dress was too large after losing some weight in which she responded that "nothing could be done about that and I would have to tape the dress to my body". Turns out that wasn't true because I took the dress to another seamstress who charged me only $45 to make the bodice smaller and it looked amazing. I think Judi is a very capable seamstress but her professionalism and people skills are lacking. If you want to feel taken care of and confident in your seamstress I would recommend going elsewhere.

    Unfortunately, I had the same experience as several of the other reviewers. The owner is very rude and not friendly. The experience is anything but special. I should have taken my dress somewhere else after our first visit when she could not find my dress and my mom found it in their back room in the bag, balled up on the floor, but I went through with the fitting anyway. When I went to pick up my dress, the alterations were not complete and she did not make my hair piece as she was supposed to. She "ran out of time" and I am traveling now for work so I cannot have the additional work done. It is a shame to spend $5k on a wedding dressing and just have to "live" with it as is. It has just been the worst experience and I would never recommend any bride to have to deal with her.

    I unfortunately have to agree with the negative reviews. I took my dress here to see if she could take in the top a little and also make the underskirt a column style from an a-line. I was told wrong by the bridal salon that it was a quick fix to change the underskirt and unfortunately Judi couldn't do it without changing a lot of the under fabric.I understood that and was disappointed but was alright with that. But the way Judi spoke to me and handled the situation was terribly unprofessional and rude. She made snarky remarks which were uncalled for, especially when it's the first meeting you have with a client. One in particular just set me over the edge- "maybe this isn't your dress. A lot of people think the dress is pretty and just not the one." I left after five minutes of just a consultation with her and just broke into tears. I think someone should feel comfortable with the person who's going to be altering one's dress and Judi is not an inviting person. I don't doubt that she knows what she's doing and many brides probably have gotten beautiful things from her. But the level of unprofessionalism and poor service is a huge red flag even if it is a job well done.

    The Seamstress's reply:

    Dear Madame,

    Ms. Judi King, The foundered of The Seamstress passed away in May 2017. She was very kind to leave the shop, in her estate plan, to her sole employee, Ms. Hieu Nguyen. We took over the shop in June 2018 and would like to bring The Seamstress back to its leading position in Central Florida as it has lovingly served in more than 30 years.

    We cannot change the past, but if we have a second chance to offer wedding and formalwear alteration services, we will do anything to ensure top quality in both technical and customer services to you and your family.

    Nancy and Tony Pham

    While I am terribly sorry for Judi's death, the owner of the shop I myself am upset that my dress was not finished and had to be redone. We paid $216 for an incomplete dress that was done very poorly. I do not believe Judi did any work on my dress. Had to take the dress elsewhere and pay $130 to get it fixed. After speaking with whoever is in charge now, they are saying I never should have taken the dress. My mother dealt with someone who didn't speak english, and we we very worried the shop would close and my dress would be gone. So we took the dress. The person I spoke with today is now backtracking and saying the hem was never included in the price of the dress. This is a bad way to deal with bad work. I am very disappointed in how this turned out. Do yourself a favor, avoid this shop.

    DO NOT GO HERE!! If it were possible, I would give this woman zero stars for her "service." This was the absolute WORST experience I could've ever imagined. During the entire first fitting she criticized my physique (e.g., "well someone has a sway back, whose fault is that?", "you're just a little too short for your dress, I wonder whose fault that is" "you've got no chest" and more). One month out from my wedding , I come back only to find out that she had done NOTHING to my dress. She gave me a long excuse about what happened and promised that she would fix it and give me a discount. Her "discount" $500...the exact same price as before. When I called her out she simply said "oh, well then $450." I was almost in tears because this was the last time I could come into town before the wedding, but she said she would stay throughout the night to finish my dress. When I came back to try it on she was worse than the first time I met her. She didn't help me try on my dress - simply said "it's in the room", she had torn the lace, put in boning then took that out which caused creasing and rippling in my dress, it was still too big even though she fit me that morning, claimed to have pressed it (and charged me for it) even though there was a huge seam line across the front where it had been pinned, she called me a liar and over-dramatic, the list goes on. She also yelled at me, my moh, and bridesmaid when we pointed out her mistakes. She also tried to assure me that "I just must be her one dress that she screws up this year" because that's so reassuring. After a lot of back and forth (basically her shouting at us for calling her out on her lies), she said "I just want it gone" and refused to let me leave without paying $375 in cash for my dress that I would have to take elsewhere to get repaired. What should've been one of the most enjoyable parts of wedding planning was the absolute worst because of her. In sum, TAKE YOUR DRESS AND RUN FOR THE HILLS!

    I really hate to sound negative, but I would not recommend this woman to a soul. She was extremely rude and incapable of making what she promised. I paid full price for an unfinished dress which I had to take elsewhere to have fixed two weeks before my wedding.
