    I'm so happy I decided to go with Lana instead of going with the many other people I got quotes from. I had a tight budget and Lana was so understanding working with me. Had 4 fittings with her in total and she would not let me leave until I felt 100% confident and happy in my dress. She provided much needed expertise and I'm so glad I listened even though I was completely hesitant at first. The dress literally fit me like a glove and I received so many compliments on my wedding day. Thank you Lana for making sure I looked amazing!

    Lana did an amazing job making my wedding dress fit so perfectly! I thought I only needed to alter the length and add a bustle, but Lana suggested additional alterations I hadn't even considered - adding bra pads (as a flat-chested gal, she worked her magic and made me feel more confident!), shortening the straps so it the back fell flush against my body, and pressing the dress to name a few. I felt beautiful in my dress and it was largely because of her. Although my dress looks simple - there were multiple layers of tulle (I think) - she cut them with ease and evenly! She also gave me complimentary ribbon for my wedding shoes to match my dress. Shes truly an expert and I highly recommend getting your dress altered by her!

    Lana was truly another gift the Lord gave us during the wedding planning process. For me personally, wedding planning wasn't always fun or easy, but Lana was a breath of fresh air from the very beginning. Every time I saw her, I felt like she genuinely wanted to take care of me and make sure I felt special. Not only is Lana incredibly kind and caring, but her work is absolutely impeccable and worth every penny. She is extremely meticulous and detailed at every fitting. If there was ever something she didn't like or thought could be improved, she always found a way to fix it and make it even better. My dress had lace, embroidery, sequins, and mesh, and she handled every detail flawlessly. She truly made my dress look extraordinary on me. I also got an overskirt for my wedding Mass that she was able to grab some fabric from my wedding gown to make it match more. I would 1000% recommend Lana to any bride. Even if you're coming from far away, she is absolutely worth the travel.

    Lana added all the lace while keeping the integrity of my mom's original dress.

    This review is long overdue. Lana is a true miracle worker. I came to her in April for my wedding on July 7th. I was determined to wear my mom's dress. And let me tell you...it needed some work. Miss Lana came up with a plan to modernize the dress while upholding its originality. I travel back and forth from Orange County to Reno, NV, and she was so patient with everything. She stayed late to finish my dress and even added finishing touches that she thought would make my dress extra special. I could not have been happier and I know my mom would have loved everything Miss Lana did with the dress. I am forever grateful for what she did!

    Lana did such an amazing job working magic on my dress to make it a perfect fit for my wedding day! There were areas of my dress when I bought it that were much too big for me, and there were huge variations in size and fit between the bust and waist. Lana was somehow able to make everything fit seamlessly together where it hugged my body in just the right way and minimized changes to the integrity of the dress. The dress was also much too long, and she was somehow able to hem it just right while maintaining the beautiful lace pattern of the train. I would highly recommend this bridal shop for anyone looking for personalized alterations with a kind owner who truly cares about her craft and her customers!

    I bought my dress on an extreme risk: picked out from an antique shop and originally made for a showroom mannequin (for a model-thin and -tall woman). I'm a short and, at the time, soft curvy woman. This was purchased on a dream! And it was pulled off. Lana was incredibly excited to work with this vintage dress (she thinks it's from the 1930s) and I found out later it likely was sold by Kleinfeld's in NYC. I looked like a princess or a 1930s Chinese movie star. Either way, I felt incredibly beautiful and satisfied with her service. Thanks, Lana! She also helped alter my Chinese cheongsam, traditional dress to be more fitted to my body. Both turned out wonderful and were hits of the party!

    Bad stitching inside my dress
    Haley P.

    I had an incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience at this bridal boutique. Here's what happened: 1. Dress Fitting Issues: At the first fitting, I brought the dress at least twice the size of my actual body measurements. After two fittings, they drastically altered the dress--making it significantly smaller without confirming with me. When I came for the third fitting, the back of the dress wouldn't even close--it was 3 to 4 inches too tight. Instead of acknowledging their mistake, Lana implied that it was either because I was on my period or had gained weight. She told me that if the dress didn't fit again on my next visit, I would need to pay an additional $300 to add a corset in the back. They completely denied any fault on their part. On my following visit, the dress still didn't fit properly (and no, I hadn't gained any weight). Suddenly, they claimed they had "good news" and had found extra lining inside the dress, so I wouldn't need to pay the $300 after all. But throughout the entire process, they continued to insist that the sizing issue wasn't their responsibility. It was incredibly frustrating and unprofessional. 2. Poor Workmanship: The stitching inside the dress was sloppy and uneven (I have photos to prove it). 3. Unhygienic Fitting Rooms: Every time I visited, the fitting rooms were messy and unclean. Not something you'd expect--or accept--when trying on your wedding dress. 4. Insensitive and Embarrassing Comments: On multiple occasions, they made me feel uncomfortable by commenting on the size of my chest in a way that felt inappropriate and shaming. 5. I found out there were multiple stains on my dress. Looks like they stepped on my dress while they were altering it (see the pictures). 6. Lana made me wait for more than 30 minutes when I went in for 2nd fitting. She didn't even say sorry for wasting my time. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was stressful and upsetting--especially considering that this was supposed to be a joyful and special time. I would not recommend this place to any bride looking for professional, respectful service.

    These ladies were fabulous! They totally worked with me when my size kept changing. They even sewed my dress while it was on me! So French Couture:)

    Lana did a fantastic job on my wedding dress alterations. She is very professional, caring, and detail oriented! I was in desperate need to have my alterations done in a rush and I couldn't have been happier with the results. She was very accommodating to my schedule since I am from the Bay Area and only had a few weekends where I would be in SoCal for wedding preparations. I truly appreciate how flexible she was despite her busy schedule. From the consultation, to the final fitting, she was wonderful to work with. I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends and family who need any bridal alterations done!

    Lana did magic on my dress and transformed it! I was so upset when I first received my dress from the store that it looked completely different than when I tried it off the rack. I'm a small petite girl and the dress was just not fitting properly, esp the chest area. Lana worked with me 5-6 different times to make sure the chest area fit my size as I didn't want to look too "booby" for my figure. She recommended I get bra fitted at a lingerie store and that changed my life! After multiple visits, we decided the strapless dress would make the chest area look better if I added straps, so we did. Come wedding day, everything fit perfectly. The reason for -1 star is because my bridesmaids did the bustle multiple times (I had 7 hooks for the bustle btw) and it kept falling down :( I ended up having to hold my long train for photos and the reception and eventually just changed out of the dress because I didn't want to hold my dress anymore. All in all, Lana was amazing and I would definitely recommend her!

    Lana helped me with my Martina Liana mermaid wedding dress for our wedding for April 2024. As soon as I went to my free consultation, I could immediately tell that Lana is a detail oriented professional that absolutely knew what she was doing. I had plenty of appointments with Lana and she gave wonderful advice along the way, on top of her energy that made me feel very comfortable, confident, and beautiful. Not only is she nice and attentive to her clients needs, but she is also flexible with scheduling. For instance, we had about two more appointments than expected since my body slightly changed, so we revisited the schedule to ensure I still get all my alterations in time. In addition, at the last minute, we decided to change my strapped dress to halter since I felt the straps were irritating my shoulders. Lana truly cared about the process and constantly reminded me that I am a princess during my wedding. She made sure the people helping me get ready knew how to help me into the dress and also buss and fluff my very long but beautiful train. I trusted her opinions, particularly when it came to my veil. I ended up getting one custom made my her, and it completed my dress so beautifully! Definitely recommend!

    Great service!! I wish I had better pictures of me in my dress without the long veil to do justice to the alterations. Lana was amazing!! So sweet, very honest, and they helped make the vision for the dress. I received my wedding dress late and they were able to take in the bust, change the length of the dress with a long train (it had like 10 layers of tool), add a bustle, alter my sleeves, and made them so they were removable IN LESS THAN A MONTH! Can't stress enough how impressed and happy I was with the alterations. I was so grateful they were able to make time for me with so short notice.

    Lana is so sweet! She is a wonderful person and I was so happy to work with her! I did not need much alterations to my dress because it was a fairly simple style. I just needed to add a bustle, slight hem, take in the bust, and add padded bra inserts. Lana was quick to respond and gave me fair quotes for the work that needed to be done. None of my fittings felt rushed and Lana had great advice for the fit. She worked SO quickly to ensure my dress was ready in time for my wedding! It was my dream dress and fit like a glove, like it was made for me. I couldn't be happier with Lana's work! Thank you Lana!!!

Right away, she knew exactly what needed to be adjusted and was so patient throughout the process. When I picked up the dress, she even took the time to look at how it fit on me and gave helpful tips, like taping down the straps to keep everything in place. You can tell she genuinely cares about her work and wants her customers to feel confident. Her prices are affordable, she accepts card payments, and the overall experience was so much better than the other alteration place I had previously gone to. I'll definitely be coming back for future alterations!!

Miss Coco's shop is as charming as she is. She was eager to help, agreed to help with the tight deadline, and stayed late to ensure I left happy. As a fun bonus, she had some pieces for sale that I was able to snag: super cute Calvin Klein dress and a GORGEOUS duster that just happened to fit me perfectly. I have a wedding in October and will return for her help on the Azazie dress I had to get (and man does it need help).

So since he was only going to cut what he pins, which was not our initial discussion, I took the time to explain. Show him the video again.

Still have a destroyed unwearable jersey and no refund.
