What People Are Saying
“I knew I wanted a nontraditional wedding dress, but I didn’t want to spend a fortune. I wasn’t going to get what I wanted out of a store, so custom it was. Jennifer took my ideas and my budget and created the dress of my dreams! She really listened to what I wanted and went out of her way to make that happen. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, and it was thanks to her creativity and talent.”

“Jennifer altered three dresses for my daughter's wedding and they all came out perfectly! My dress was a simple job, but my daughter's two dresses were a bit more detailed. Jen did an amazing job, not only with the fittings but her ability to listen and communicate her plans helped calm the bride's pre-wedding apprehensions. She was extremely patient and helpful. My daughter had great trust that her dress would fit perfectly - and it did! I highly recommend Make It Sew for your wedding alteration needs. Thanks Jen, for everything!”
