Maria worked miracles with altering my off-the-rack sample dress from Vera's to fit phenomenally. The first appointment was so quick I was a bit nervous, but by the final try-on I was in tears with how incredible (and comfortable!) I felt. The bustling worked elegantly, the straps held fast, blemishes disappeared -- the attention to detail was exceptional, and she was so incredibly kind throughout the process. Extra gratitude with her honesty in gently declining my mom's request to alter a MotB dress, explaining how the detailing and structure wouldn't lend itself to a satisfactory result. Maria is a true master at her craft!
Maria altered my wedding dress for my wedding a couple weeks ago. She altered the dress to fit me perfectly! She communicated everything with me, answered all of my questions, and made the process so easy. She has so much passion in what she does and put so much care into altering my dress. I cannot recommend her enough! 10/10 amazing!
I got my wedding dress altered with Maria for my wedding in October and it turned out beautiful! When I was feeling nervous about a certain part of the dress that I didn't think was flattering, she instantly had suggestions that made me feel at ease and when I came back to try the dress on, it looked so much better on me! You can tell she is very knowledgeable about wedding dresses and what can be possible to change and what cannot. I would recommend Maria for alterations, she did a great job and I felt like my dress was in very good hands!
