I absolutely loved my wedding dress. It was such a fun process from start to finish to design my dream dress at Emily Kotarski. It’s a small studio so when you are in there you get the team’s undivided attention and they all go above and beyond...
to make the experience special and get you the dress that you want. My dress and custom veil turned out exactly as I envisioned!
I would definitely recommend Emily Kotarski for bridal alterations! I was nervous about altering the dress but they made it fit perfectly and kept all the lace details that I loved.
There is something magical about wedding dresses but it is even more magical to have a dress that has been hand crafted just for you. Emily truly is a master at her craft. Walking down the aisle in an EKB custom gown was absolutely perfect and ...
made me feel like the most beautiful bride. The look of my groom’s face when he saw what Emily and I designed was priceless. The entire design process was so much fun and Emily has a true gift to make you feel so comfortable in a dress that is uniquely you. Her attention to detail is unparalleled and her ability to create a wedding gown that makes you feel beautiful and confident is incredible. I had the best experience and I am so happy to be an EKB bride!
Any questions?
My daughter’s dress was the most elegant, classic, and graceful wedding gown she and I could have ever dreamed of. EKB also helped with some last minute alternations and we’re so accommodating when her wedding was postponed. The Charleston Salo...
n is amazing, located right on King Street, you could see all the samples, lace, appliqués, it was a wedding wonderland. The experience was much better than going to a salon where we had to sit, isolated from the bride, trying dress after dress after dress. This was an experience I would encourage anyone buying their dream dress to reach out and meet the EKB Team.
Emily Kotarski is the most amazing wedding dress designer you will find! I asked if she could create a complicated dress reveal and she did it with pure magic. From beginning to end, she helped find the perfect fabrics and made sure the shape a...

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience getting my custom wedding dress designed for me by Emily Kotarski Bridal! Emily designed my dream dress for me and made it even better than I could have imagined. From consultations with her, where ...
she added details to the design that I loved but never could have thought of, to fittings in which she made the dress fit me perfectly, the whole experience was so smooth! I received so many compliments on my dress and felt like my best version of myself in it! So thankful for Emily Kotarski Bridal for making my wedding dress exactly what I wanted!
Emily Kotarski made the dress of my dreams. After trying on a few dresses with insane price tags and only half liked I knew I was meant to be a custom bride. Living in PA I was able to visit Emily’s salon, meet her team, help with the design pr...
ocess without a worry in the world. EKB was such a great support system for me and my mom throughout the nightmare of Covid rescheduling, the week before my wedding my moms dress was too big and the team even was able to do a quick tailor, overall best experience of my wedding. My dress was perfect, elegant, classy, and classic. I am so proud to be an EKB bride!
EKB was amazing start to finish!!! She made my dreams a reality, even when I couldn't put into words exactly what I wanted, somehow she knew and made me my dream dresses!! I had the best of both worlds--a big custom ballgown and then also a fun...
party dress to dance the night away!! Emily was professional and creative and I recommend her to anyone who will listen!!!
Wow what a great experience! They altered my mother's dress from the 80s to create such a perfect sentimental dress for my wedding day. They walked me through the whole process and were very patient with any concerns I had. My mother was thrill...

You guys..... this salon literally made my dream dress come alive! I'm 5'0 tall so my dress was super long on me. Emily and her team made my dream dress perfect in every way! They know exactly what they are doing and I would trust them with any...

Emily made the wedding dress of my dreams! I met with her about 10 months before my wedding and described the type of dress I wanted and she made it completely from scratch. The dress was exactly as I imagined and she was receptive to my idea a...
nd offered up complementary suggestions that ended up making the dress a beautiful fit for me.
She was able to custom make my dress that fit within my budget and timeline. I was completely at ease and trusted her 100% throughout the process, it couldn't have been a better experience.
I cannot recommend Emily enough. I bought my dress off the rack a few sizes too big but was reassured by the boutique I bought my dress at that Emily could make it fit perfectly. I bought my dress early so I spent months worried I had made the ...
wrong decision. Once I finally met with Emily, I felt at ease. She reassured me it wouldn’t be difficult to get my dress to fit and I left the first appointment feeling confident in the outcome. Due to covid I had to reschedule my second and final fitting with her numerous times. At no point did she make it feel like it was a bother. I left every appointment feeling more and more excited about my dress and was blown away on the final fitting. I cannot imagine and more perfect dress for my wedding day and Emily made that dream come true!
Emily is amazing! I took recommendations from two friends who had both used Emily to create and altar their wedding gowns. She made my dress fit me 100% perfectly. Emily also completely re-designed my mom's dress which was a ton of work. My mom...
and I both were so happy with Emily's professionalism and attention to detail. Thank you for making us feel so beautiful on my wedding day!!
Emily Kotarski, bespoke bridal designer, is so talented. She is fantastic to work with and we would highly recommend her because:
1) My daughter bought her wedding dress from a couture designer in London but it needed significant alternations ...
because the dress was a size 10 and my daughter is a size 4. Emily was recommended by a wedding planner in Charleston. We were concerned about how much alterations the dress might need, but Emily quickly put our minds at ease.
Emily did a magnificent job fitting the wedding dress to my daughter, and it fits her like a glove. It was a complicated process with miles of tulle and French lace and a complicated corset but the dress fits perfectly! It could not be any better if the original designer altered it herself.
2) After early positive experiences with Emily, we decided to have her re-make my wedding dress for my daughter to wear to the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. Emily removed the collar, changed the neckline, and took off the sleeves so it was a major redo and it looks fantastic! In addition, she designed and made a gorgeous silk skirt for my daughter to wear with her/my RD blouse.
3) Using left over lace from both my dress and my daughter’s dress, Emily custom made 3 purses, a wristlet for the bride and 2 clutches for the MOB and MOG.
4) Emily made embroidered handkerchiefs for 5 women, using silk from my dress, during the remake process.
5) Emily also made my daughter’s veil by altering mine, and the result is stunning with her wedding dress.
6) After unsuccessfully shopping for the perfect MOB dress, Emily worked with me and a friend who is a wardrobe consultant to source and design my MOB dress. Emily sourced the fabric which is Swiss embroidered silk with glass beads. And she made 3D beaded flower embellishments for the neckline, and pins for my hair. It’s incredible, and I am so happy with it.
7) Emily was very flexible in working on our time table. My daughter lived in Germany during most of the alterations and Emily always made herself available for appointments, the few weeks my daughter was in town.
8) Emily got married herself recently and the fact that she was planning her own wedding, and making her own dresses of course (she had 3 wedding dresses for her day) did not negatively impact our appointments or the work she was doing for us at all.
9) And finally, Emily’s prices are fair, based on the detailed work and special laces and fabrics used.
Emily helped to reconstruct my mother's wedding dress from 1980, which was a TASK. Emily was simply the best to work with throughout the entire process, drawing up a rendering of my dress on our first visit, and guiding me through several fitti...
ngs throughout the process. Beyond the incredible dress creator that she is, Emily is warm, easy-going, and made me feel so comfortable during appointments. We are so grateful for Emily's beautiful work, and highly recommend to anyone interested in a one-of-a-kind dress to remember.
Emily was a dream to work with. She took the time to explain the difference between fabrics, and styles and knew what would work best for my petite body type. She was patient and listened to my ideas which turned into a beautiful custom made we...
dding dress, that I adore! She was timely and professional, and made me feel comfortable with her and her team from day one! I'd highly recommend others to meet with her and consult on a custom made dress.
Emily brought my bridal vision to life! She created a custom embroidered cape and over-skirt to accompany my wedding gown. She has such a great eye for details and was so patient with me and my indecisiveness. Emily's custom work truly made me ...

I could not of had a more wonderful experience working with Emily in the custom design of my daughters wedding gown! My daughter loved bits and pieces of many other gowns she had tried on and she was hoping to put these ideas together and creat...

Her passion for design is obvious and she made the process painless and exciting. Along with her calming personality, she is truly a master of her craft. Emily we can’t thank you enough!

Highly recommend.
I can’t say enough good things about Emily and her staff! She is exceptionally talented, very professional, and makes every bride feel like a top priority. Emily’s style and design skills, combined with her warm personality, make her the top ...
choice for Charleston brides!
Emily did an amazing job creating my custom wedding gown. I made an appointment at her studio with a vague idea of what I wanted, and she walked me through the process of designing my perfect dress, from fabrics and shapes down to the most intr...
icate details. The result of our consultation was a gorgeous gown that not only perfectly fit my measurements but also my personality and style. Many guests at my wedding complimented my dress and said it was so "me." I felt beautiful and elegant on my wedding day, and knowing the dress was made for me gave me a confidence boost and made the day that much more special. Emily was perceptive and professional throughout the entire process & I highly recommend her work.
I could not be happier with both the experience working with Emily and the dress she created for me. Emily has a beautiful way integrating her design expertise with the vision of her client. She made me feel deeply involved in the process of t...
he design so I was getting everything that I could have dreamed of in a wedding dress. She also offered creative solutions to make my vision come true in a way that I could have never found in a dress off the rack.
I recommend her custom wedding dresses to all of my friends getting engaged. From start to finish the experience working with Emily was nothing short of spectacular.
Emily designed both my MOB gown and my daughter’s wedding gown. I can’t say enough how perfectly she captured our personalities, the feel we wanted for the wedding and our best physical features. Our wedding guests were wowed by both gowns and ...
how great we looked wearing them. The whole design experience was easy and at the same time, very special. Emily’s ability to translate what we said (and what we didn’t say) and create something beautiful is truly amazing. We recommend her to everyone.
Oh Emily. From the second my aunt and I walked into your charming shop in Charleston, I knew I’d found my perfect spot. My dress was one of a kind, the perfect shade for my skin, and had a matching veil. You listened to my seemingly impossible ...
dreams and sewed them into the most beautiful gown I’ve ever seen. My husband balled his eyes out when I walked down the aisle- thanks to your gorgeous work. Not only are you the best at what you do, but also an awesome person. Thanks for all the support and patience. I’ll be back in 20 years for an update on my dress ;)
Emily was the best to work with. She helped modify my dress and had many great suggestions, including different appliques that she felt would fit my vision. We were able to transform my dress into the one of my dreams, even after I had lost a t...
on of weight and the dress essentially had to be deconstructed and rebuilt! She was always available and remained involved with any questions or concerns I had even when she was out of town. I cannot thank her enough for all of her help!
Where do I begin?! I had such an amazing experience working with Emily to create the dress and veil of my dreams. After obsessing over Emilys' stunning collections for months I contacted her. However, I am located in the Philly area so seeing t...
hat Emily was located in Charleston, I wasn't quite sure if we could make it work, but she did!! Emily went to great lengths to accommodate me not only in the planning process, but fittings as well. Emily did an in home appointment with me for my first appointment (unheard of!!!). This was so nice to be in the comfort of my home with my ladies with me! I honestly had no idea what style or type of dress I was looking for, but I knew I was in good hands when Emily brought several styles of dresses for my to try on. As I tried on each dress, we went through likes and dislikes, and at the conclusion of the appointment Emily had sketched me my dream dress! In addition to my dress, Emily also designed me a custom veil with vintage lace passed down from my husbands grandmother. The veil was absolutely stunning. Throughout the entire process I continued to be in awe over Emilys' professionalism, expertise, knowledge and pure talent. This designer is a true artist.
Emily is a master of design! After trying on too many dresses and not falling in love with any I felt discouraged about finding 'the perfect dress'. I decided to try the custom route and never looked back. From our first conversation to each a...
ppointment Emily listened compassionately and asked every question to make sure that she completely understood my vision. Emily worked her magic and created two perfect outfits for my wedding weekend- a two piece jumpsuit for the rehearsal and my bridal gown- both absolutely impeccable in every way. Emily made my mom a shawl (a very last minute request!) to match her dress. Emily listened to every single detail and created my dream outfits more beautifully than I imagined possible- she made me feel like a real life princess. Emily even came on site on my wedding day to steam the dress to perfection! I recommend Emily over and over again and am already looking forward to the next event that she can design for me.
I can’t begin to describe how instrumental Emily was in my gown process. After trying on dresses at several boutiques with no success, I turned to Emily with an idea for a dress that I had in my head but couldn’t find anywhere. From day one, Em...

Working with Emily was hands down the easiest part about wedding planning. From the start Emily made the experience absolutely wonderful and so easy. I had no clue what to expect but she was so confident with every aspect of the designing proce...
ss. I loved how Emily took control when I was unsure about something. She was confident, knowledgable, and 100% the professional the whole time which put me completely at ease. The best part was that Emily made my dress even better than I could have ever even imagined. She exceeded my expectations.
Emily 's talent and vision for our dream wedding looks was beyond anything we could have imagined. The entire process from start to finish was everything two brides could hope for. She took our wants and desires for a custom gown , cape, as w...

Emily is amazing!!! I would recommend her to absolutely anyone. She made my wedding day dream dress a reality, and I could not be more pleased with the final product of what she created custom for me!
Emily truly has a gift - she is able to guide and cultivate your dream wedding dress even if you have no idea what that looks like. By working with her, I received a personally made, one-of-a-kind dress that was redesigned from my mom's dress ...

Emily was absolutely amazing to work with. I went into this process not entirely sure what I wanted, and she helped me figure out my likes/dislikes and craft the perfect dress. She is professional, sweet, and timely, and she did a wonderful job...

Emily was so wonderful! She did all the alterations for my wedding gown (taking in the bodice, sleeves, and hips, and adding a bustle), and did such a wonderful job! I highly recommend her for your alteration needs!
I had such a great experience working with Emily to design my wedding gown. The whole process was smooth and so much fun! Emily is incredibly talented, and she was able to take my vision and turn it into reality. She was always there to answer ...

They looked as if they were part of the dress from the very beginning and I got so many compliments on them. The best part was that Emily had the foresight to attach them with snaps so that they could be removed for full range of motion when it came time for dancing. I loved the unique, personal experience, high quality work, and attention to detail I received when working with Emily!!!
Emily was absolutely amazing. She altered and customized my wedding dress, transforming it from a too-big sample dress to the perfectly fitted, elegant wedding gown of my dreams. She added delicate, long lace sleeves to the strapless beaded bo...

I can't recommend her services highly enough, whether you are looking for dress alterations or a completely unique wedding gown design!
Emily made my daughter's wedding gown shopping nothing short of a dream! My daughter brought Emily a series of photos showing which neckline she loved in a gown, the shape and the type of lace but couldn't seem to find the perfect gown anywhere...
. Here she was able to create the perfect gown and when Emily pinned together my daughter's idea right before our eyes, we knew we had come to the right place. It was clear throughout the entire process of creating the gown that Emily was the one to trust when it comes to looking for a custom gown. Every last detail of the gown was simply perfect on the big day and my daughter was so comfortable in her gown all night! If you are looking for your dream dress, Emily will make it happen!
Emily is absolutely brilliant! I am so lucky I basically "fell into" her shop and services. I already had my dress, but was in desperate need of someone who I trusted to alter my precious gown. Emily did, and honestly for such a FAIR price. I c...
ompletely the amazing work and dedication. Everything was done in a timely manner, and with total attention to detail. Emily also did a custom veil for me, that I absolutely fell in love with. I didn't even know I wanted a veil until I got mine, and now I wish I could wear it EVERY SINGLE DAY. I thought I could maybe purchase a cheap one online - no...color matching, fabric quality, length of veil were all crucial aspects. We so enjoyed every meeting with Emily and having her as a part of the experience. Maybe one day she can make me a special gown for another occasion!

Charleston is lucky to have her!
