If you’re looking for the perfect seamstress in the central Florida area to care for your wedding gown, look no further. Ciara is first and foremost an expert in her craft and takes care of every clients gowns as if they were her own. I don’t h...ave enough kind words to describe my experience working with her but her professionalism and kindness start the moment at first interaction.
Setting up my appointment was a breeze, but do be warned to book ASAP as she is in demand (for a good reason!). Her bright personality, professionalism and knowledge shine through during your appointment as well as she greets all clients with so much warmth and excitement to be working on your wedding gown.
Even though my gown was a made to order dress, it was advised by the company to secure a seamstress as it is made in size ranges and while some brides need zero alterations, some may wish to make a few. I had an unfortunate experience with the manufacturer of the gown that resulted in me having to quickly change my appointment date with Ciara. The gown was to arrive 8 weeks before the wedding date and my alterations appointment was 7 weeks from the date. Well, a manufacturing error in the gown resulted in me having to ship it back to Australia and I wouldn’t receive the gown for another four weeks. As you can imagine my stress of this error so close to my wedding day, Ciara was so kind, reassuring and accommodating in moving my appointment to a new date that was extremely close to my wedding date without penalty. Her poise and kindness were helpful in keeping me calm about this massive schedule upheaval. For that alone, I can’t thank her enough.
My alterations were fairly minor when considering the spectrum of needs, and included a bustle and strap adjustments. She truly helped make my gown the perfect gown for my big day! I recommend her to every bride in the area asking for a seamstress to care for their gowns.
