I truly feel so lucky to have found Marya design. I bought a wedding dress, which was a simple…read moredesign but had a massive train, which I didn't feel particularly comfortable wearing for my relatively casual wedding that didn't have a ceremony. When I was buying the dress, I was told that it would be impossible to remove the train while maintaining the shape of the dress, so I had resigned myself to needing to add a bustle and would just wear it bustled the whole time. When I told Marya what I hoped for, she didn't blink an eye before saying she could remove the train and keep it even all the way around. When she showed me the dress to approve at my second appointment, I was truly speechless. It looked like it was designed that way and looked even better than I could have imagined. So already, she was a true wizard to me, but I ended up using her again to add a lining to another dress I bought for the courthouse, which I loved but had an inner bodysuit that was totally visible through the white fabric. She took out the bodysuit and added a lining so it was not only beautiful, but also way more comfortable to wear. She is an absolute magician, so professional and so incredibly talented. And reasonably priced for the highest quality. What more could you ask for?

When I came to pick up my dress, I tried it on and it wasn't as fitted as I was hoping for. I talked to the owner, Le, and said it wasn't to my satisfaction and he was willing to alter it for no additional charge. I have been to other seamstresses who will charge for additional alterations if you are dissatisfied with their service. Although the alterations were higher than other tailor shops I have gone to, their customer satisfaction compensates for it.

I looked them up and they had great reviews, so I decided to go for it. I made an appointment and tried on my dress. We decided that I needed the dress brought in a bit at the waist but the rest of the dress was perfect. When I came back a week before my wedding for a final fitting, the dress fit perfectly and looked stunning. It made a huge difference! It was much more flattering. There was lace overlay, but you couldn't even tell the dress had ever been altered. The whole process was super easy, fast, and well-priced. We also decided to get my partner's suit rental through Sew More Couture. It was a great deal- you get measured and order the suit, Sew More Couture will do the alterations as needed for free, and then you drop off a day or two after your wedding. My partner's pocket square came in in the wrong color, but they managed to get one delivered the day before the wedding in the correct color for us. The jacket alterations they did also looked fantastic on him. Overall, we were really happy with Sew More Couture and would definitely recommended for weddings, or any other alterations needed! We will be back, I am sure!

I watched her interact with a lady in front of me- telling her the dress wasn't her size and pointing out places where she was too big for the dress. This woman (probably in her 60s) looked gorgeous and told Anna multiple times the dress was her size and she couldn't return it. Anna's comments about her body and the dress were not very kind. When it was my turn I showed her the dress which I wanted taken in just a little and she said she wouldn't because that was the way the dress was supposed to be. I was sad I waited in line. The next tailor I went to quickly understood what I wanted and gave me a couple of other tips for how to make the dress work better for my body type as well. I won't be back here.

Since I did not know their process, I called first. The process for drop-offs/fittings and pick-ups is scheduled through the website. While on the call, I asked some questions and was provided with a good amount of information to feel confident about scheduling the appointment. The website scheduling process was simple. On the day that I dropped off my garment, the process was pretty quick. I tried on the item and we discussed the alterations. I think the entire visit was about 10-15 minutes. We discussed when I wanted to pick it up, as well as pricing and payment options. We verbally set a pickup day, but it also required a scheduled appointment, so I immediately set a specific appointment for a few days later. When I picked up the item, I tried it on and the alterations were exactly what I wanted. Needless to say, I am pleased with the alterations. I would definitely return. I paid using my phone, so it was great. Comparatively speaking, I think her prices are pretty competitve with other cleaners and tailors in the area.
