In-house craftsmanship — no outsourcing
Maria is a wonderful seamstress and designer. Her dresses are absolutely gorgeous as is her shop! She altered my wedding dress to perfection, and I bought my veil, floral head piece, and silk sash from her shop. They are so pretty and will be passed down. I bought my dress from another vendor and it had a rip. I brought it to Maria to see what she advised as far as ordering a new dress or trying to fix the rip. She advised me free of charge before altering the dress. She is so funny and sweet, and is honestly a master at her craft with so much expertise. She will be honest about what she thinks if you need help deciding about your look, accessories, etc. If you’re lucky enough to be able to purchase one of her handmade, high quality, one-of-a-kind dresses or accessories, or have her do your alterations, you won’t regret it!
