Ellen made my wedding dress, and it turned out more perfectly than I could have imagined! I was unsure of exactly what I was looking for, but Ellen discerningly reviewed my smorgasbord of inspirational photos and helped me come up with my dream design. She also provided a number of fabric samples for me to choose from, all of which were much higher quality than those I'd seen at the bridal studios.
We had in-person fittings at Ellen's studio throughout the process to discuss and perfect every detail (I kept changing my mind, and she was so patient!) Ellen also ensured that the dress didn't just fit perfectly, but that it was comfortable and functional too- she engineered some clever elements such as an adjustable waist-stay and adjustable straps that allowed me to adjust the fit of the dress throughout the night.
Finally, Ellen designed removable capelets that I wore during the ceremony and photos. I had seen this kind of cape online, but none of the bridal boutiques I went to sold them. It was such a cool alternative to a veil, and I'm so glad Ellen could make it happen!
I'm so glad I worked with Ellen to make my dream dress come to life!
