Review from

I am unbelievably grateful for the love, patience, quality, skill and time that was spent on creating the dress of my dreams for when I get to say “I do” to the man of my dreams! There are no words to truly express how lucky I am to have had Genna work her magic on my dress. She is simply wonderful and such a beautiful soul. Her work made me speechless! I am so happy! Enough said - you couldn’t ask for anyone better to help make you feel so special!

Heirloom veil, new veil, custom matching veil, a different head accessory altogether, there's so many options to choose from!

Inspired by Grace Kelly's bridal look, I went with a restored ivory Juliet cap veil from the 1950s.

***How it started VS what we made***

Danielle chose to make the Morilee Ambrosia gown suit her own personality by shortening the train and recutting the sleeves to do away with the poufy shoulders. Her vision was super fun to execute, this redesign was a real chop of faith!

I am so happy for you, Allison! You are completely stunning and I loved working with you.

"Genna did a FANTASTIC job on my alterations! The dress did not originally have sleeves (pictured below). She added them and did so seamlessly! She also had a huge job of altering the dress to fit much smaller at the waist and much larger at the hips. When it was all said and done, the dress fit beautifully. She was an absolute joy to work with, and I would highly recommend her for any alterations!"

Swipe to see the after ⏩

My bride was feeling a little exposed in this gown so we lined just the front of the bodice and she no longer feels like her bra is on display. Extending the lining all the way to the top of the shoulder seam but leaving the illusion panels unlined, we love how this subtle change blends perfectly.

Dear Newly Minted Mrs.,
I have some major gratitude for all of the women who I've had the pleasure to serve this year. Let me just brag on y'all for a minute. Every single one of you has been so polite and kind, so considerate and understanding, and so dang beautiful inside and out. Many of you have left me feeling filled and energized instead of drained and tired and not one of you has been rude or even a little terrible. How blessed am I?? This is not normal!! Keep doing what you're doing, all of that kindness you're sowing is coming back to you. Have the happiest of holidays and the very best of marriage adventures.
Love,
The Wedding Gown Tailor

"Genna went above and beyond for my wedding gown alterations needs! I brought her a dress that I loved, but wanted it to be more customizable to me. Genna was able to add sleeves to this dress and make it fit me like a glove! (Yes that's right! She added those sleeves and you didn’t even know it!) Her services were top notch and she went above and beyond to make sure I had the dress of my dreams! So much love and appreciate for her!!"

McKenzie had a really clear vision of how to make this dress her own. It's very satisfying to my creativity when brides request edits to their dresses that make them completely unique: no one else in the world has THIS dress.

All jobs with a deadline of less than four weeks from the first appointment will be subject to a 20% rush fee.

"I cannot say enough good things about Miss Genna, the wedding gown tailor. She spent over 10 hours altering my wedding dress because the waist needed to be moved down several inches. When she was done, it looked perfect-like us was designed to be that way! I feel like I have a couture gown and my dress fits like a glove. I am going to be feeling confident and comfortable on my wedding day because of the alterations Genna did on my dress. I highly recommend her."

Talia's dress came to her much shorter in the bodice than she was expecting. Pressed for time, we could not order any matching fabric or lace, so we worked with what we had. We reshaped the skirt and extend the boning to elongate her waist and the result was a dress that sat perfectly secure on her torso. Talia was so lovely to work with throughout the entire process and it was such a joy to complete this dramatic transformation.

I am very excited to announce the restructuring of The Wedding Gown Tailor ✨

This will require some time away from sewing, so if you're getting married December 2021 through April 2022, call me now to snag one of my remaining October 2021 appointments.

Some of the big changes:

2 week appointment intervals:
Y'all, this will eliminate rush fees in many cases and allow me to serve you better than in my current 1 month system.

New larger, prettier, fitting space:
I'm super excited about this, we are set to open it sometime this October.

Prepaid booking deposits for 2022:
Your first alterations deposit will now also serve as a booking deposit and be payable within 7 days of booking your appointment. This will be deducted from your alterations bill, of course. This helps you by making sure I have the maximum availability at all times.

Have you always wondered how they do this??

theweddinggowntailor • hemming a lace edge dress

08/12/2021

Please don't let anyone talk you into chopping your dress in half when shortening it from the bottom is the proper way to hem it. Yes, lace edges like this can definitely be hemmed beautifully.
