Testimonials
“As someone who is ridiculously self conscious, I never for a moment felt anything other than beautiful at my appointments and on my big day and I can't thank you enough for how you looked after me! The alterations were perfection, it's like the dress was made for me!”
— Chelsea G.
“I felt a million dollars in my dress. The customisation adding the straps was everything I had imagined only better - I’m still just as obsessed with the dress as the first time I tried it on.”
— Lauree B.
“I felt like a princess and people loved my dress especially because of how it was initially but also the added features we changed - even added some of my mum’s wedding dress and veil to mine for me so it was just perfect.”
— Alisha M.
