Suzanne was absolutely incredible to work with! I had her alter my ceremony wedding gown, shorten my mother's wedding gown into a mini-dress, and create two purses out of my mother's gown fabric. I had numerous appointments and Suzanne always made me feel welcome and comfortable, and encouraged me to speak up if I wanted something changed. She worked wonders with my gown which started out a few sizes too large and ended up fitting like a glove. Suzanne always allowed me to bring guests to my appointments and had a comfortable area for them to sit and watch. She was easily accessible via email or text and responded quickly. Her attention to detail truly showed through her work and I would highly recommend for any wedding gown needs!

Suzanne was the best tailor I could have ever dreamt of for my wedding dress! She accommodated my long distance needs and came through with a perfectly tailored dress with just one fitting. She went out of her way to get my wedding dress to me and I feel unbelievably lucky to have found her. Not only did she make me feel beautiful but she created a dress for my mom from just an idea that was better than we could have ever imagined! She is fantastic at what she does, we couldn’t recommend her more!

I was seeking out options to vintage redesign a family heirloom dress and Suzanne was so helpful. She setup a Zoom consult with me to talk all about my ideas and give her professional opinion on what work. I did not end up going with a redesigned heirloom dress, but if I had I was ready to work with Suzanne on it.

Suzanne was amazing! She listened to everything I said I wanted my dress to be. Her work was great and done in a more than a reasonable time. My wedding got postponed and she held onto my dress until we reached the new date. Great service and I am so glad I had such a stress-free experience with my alterations.

I went to Suzann for a bridesmaids dress fitting and she was fantastic! She was patient and attentive, especially when I realized during the fitting that I wanted an additional alteration to a different part of the dress. I will definitely be using her for future bridesmaid dresses.
