I had a really good experience here with Maggie. I found the dress that I wanted for my wedding elsewhere in Los Angeles, and was given price quotes that were out of my range. Maggie was able to lower the price of the dress so that I could afford it. I really appreciated the time she spent with me.
From the beginning, I wanted to make an alteration to the top of the dress (there was a big bow that I wanted removed). Maggie was upfront with me that there would be an issue with covering the seam where the bow had been (something no other dress shop I spoke with mentioned). She is talented and creative and was able to whip up an amazing fix for the problem. My dress is beautiful.
Maggie was also able to hem the bottom of the dress, which was a series of complicated petals. When she was finished, the dress looked better than the original layout.
When I came into the store, I was nervous about purchasing the dress so far away from where I lived. However, I ran into a woman there who had bought her wedding dress from Maggie and was now bringing her friend in to do the same. That really re-assured me.
My advice to any bride would be to get your initial quotes - from all of your wedding vendors - in writing. Wedding dresses generally take a long time to come in and you/the vendor won't remember what you agreed upon unless you get it in writing. If you do that here, you won't have any problems. Maggie is a talented seamstress and will take care of you. You will look beautiful on your wedding day!
