Great job on the straps and bust.
Rolanda S.

I found Javonica on Yelp when looking for someone to alter my wedding dress. All the other shops seemed to nickel-dime you the time of the alterations but Javonica was very reasonable and very patient. I did a total of 3 fittings. I couldn't believe how long each fitting took (2 hours!) but I assume that's just because I had never been through the process before. She gently gave me her opinions without forcing me into a decision, so it was a good collaboration. FYI her workspace lighting could be brighter, so I would try to schedule the fittings during the day when you have the natural light as well. But it was generally okay so as long as you keep that in mind. Thank you Javonica, I hope we can work together again soon!

Before, after, & final details!

I barely had a month til my wedding and was rushing trying to find the perfect person to alter my dress. My dress had so much detail and the way I wanted it as well I knew would need more than a month to fit it to my liking. I found Javonica and she did such a beautiful job putting my dress into the dress dress I wanted for my special day! I didn't even have a veil yet and she had the most perfect one that matched my wedding dress! I wouldn't have had such a beautiful wedding dress if it wasn't for her! I recommend her 100%! Great advice and wonderful skills in what she does! Thank you so much! Pictures show before the fitting after the fittings and the final product on my wedding day! Please don't mind my faces lol

I originally got my dress from David's bridal and when I got in it was 1000x too big for me. When Javonica got done it not only looked beautiful but it fit perfectly. She not only altered it perfectly but she also added an absolutely stunning belt to it. I would recommend her a million times over!!

Alterations to wedding dress came out perfect!

Javonica altered my wedding dress that I had bought at David's Bridal and did a fabulous job! It fit me wonderfully and people thought it was specially custom made for me. The bust area was large when I first got it and she altered it to make it fit perfectly for a reasonable price. I would definitely go to again and again in the future.

My original wedding dress

Javonica in a few short words: professional, detail-oriented, kind, driven, and meticulous. At the core of her work is her sincere desire to make you feel and look beautiful in your dress. I went to Javonica for some pretty serious alterations on my wedding dress. After having gone to 3 other alterations boutiques, Javonica was the only one not afraid to take on the project. I'm beyond grateful for having found her because she truly created the wedding dress of my dreams. During the process, she made suggestions that added to the look I was going for. Javonica also created a custom dress for my flower girl, and took care of the alterations for my bridesmaids. I would tell anyone who asked not to even bother looking elsewhere, Javonica is your lady, hands down.

Javonica Chicago was a recommendation from a friend. When I spoke to her on the phone I had a good feeling about her. I met her soon thereafter, of course after checking her website, and I was blown away by her talent, professionalism and passion. I enjoyed the experience of working with her to design my one of a kind haute couture wedding gown. The process was fascinating. I even changed the design and her temperament was fabulous. She is hardworking, dedicated to her craft and a true visionary. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a personalized dressmaking experience. P.S. I also had her make my daughter's flower girl dress. I think it was just as pretty if not prettier than mine. Love Javonica Chicago!

I HIGHLY recommend Winnie Couture for your bridal gown!!!!…read more All the wonderful reviews about Jessica are true! she's a true professional and you can tell that she truly enjoys what she does and she's very good at it. After purchasing my bridal gown, I walked away feeling like I was floating, all smiles and I don't have a single regret. Prior to my visit I shared my preferences and I'm happy to say that when I walked in Jessica had already pulled a lot of dresses for me to choose from. What I think I enjoyed most about working with Jessica is that she listened to me, gave sincere suggestions and provided honest feedback instead of pushing what she thought would be best OR just agreeing with me. End the end, I said YES TO THE DRESS and chose what I consider to be one of the most beautiful gowns I've tried on and I knew instantly it was the one. Jessica, thank you for making this a wonderful experience for me!

Just a note here - we scheduled an appt for this location in old town area of Chicago. We got a…read moremessage confirming and everything. Then, we got a message at about 2:20 - which I assumed was our reminder and I didn't open it. Then we walked to the shop and it was closed!!! I then opened the reminder and it said we were already 20 mins late and would be charged $75 for the missed appt. My friend called them immediately and we found that they had temporarily closed the Chicago store and were routing appointments to the NORTH CAROLINA store. This is why they thought we were late. Once we realized the issue - the woman on the phone was very apologetic and explained that the appts were getting rerouted but that it was a mistake on their end and they were very sorry. They refunded the fee. I am appreciative of this - but they really should have something to keep us from booking somewhere that isn't open. We wasted three hours of travel time and prep on a busy day. Boo. I'm sure the dresses are pretty though - that and the easy fix and apology upped the rating.
