Are you available on my wedding day if there is an emergency?
(top)

Yes. I am available to come to the church to help you dress.  I will be there with my emergency kit in case of a popped seam, a hemline gets stepped on, a snap comes off-you name it.

Can I take my grandma's, sister's, mother's, etc, dress and make it my own?
(top)

Absolutely!  This is one of my favorite things to do.  It makes the dress so much more personal when it was part of your mother, sister. etc.

Can you customize my dress from my ideas?
(top)

Yes!  That is the best reason for a custom made gown.  We will take your ideas and turn them into the dress of your dreams.  You pick the front, back, sleeve, neckline, train, all parts of the dress to make it yours.

Do I have to have a pattern?
(top)

Not necessarily.  I may have a pattern, or we can go buy the one you need.  I do combine patterns also and do some designing without a pattern.

Do you have fabrics I can choose from?
(top)

Yes, many types & colors.  If I don't have exactly what you are looking for, I should have something to give you an idea.

Do you make veils & headpieces?
(top)

Yes.

Do you require a deposit?
(top)

Yes 50 % down.

How long does it take?
(top)

I like to have at least 12 weeks.  I can do it sooner for an expedited fee.

What about dresses for the wedding party?
(top)

I do bridesmaids, flower girls, mother-of-the bride dresses.  I also do prom and other formal attire.

What do I get for my money?
(top)

I will sit down with you and discuss your ideas, come up with a design.  We will shop for your fabric and you get 3 fittings.

What sizes are available?

You tell me your size, I will make it to fit you.

Where does the fabric come from?

We will go shopping at the fabric store or I may have what you are looking for in my collection.
