I had the best experience with Isa. I am a pandemic bride who waited while her dress went from perfect fit tothat button will not do up. It was a nightmare. Isa was patient and understanding with me the whole journey. She made me feel comfortable and safe amidst a pandemic. I ended up losing the weight to do up the button, but she was ready to fix it if not. I would highly recommend her. She is pricey, but you get what you pay for and it was worth every penny and I would definitely go back! This is your wedding day, your dress should be perfect. Thank you Isa for making me look absolutely beautiful

I bought a dress that I thought I loved and realized after I bought it that I hated the top half of the dress. I loved the bottom half, but needed the top completely remade. Isa took a dress that I regretted buying into a dress that I absolutely loved. I do have to say you need to trust the process and trust Isa. There were many times I thought Isa didnt know what she was doing, and that there was no progressbut it all came together and I honestly couldnt have been happier! Thank you Isa for making my wedding dress all that I dreamed it would be!!!

Save your self stress, and do not use this woman. She botched my wedding dress! And had the audacity to charge me 1200 dollars to alter. The sides were see through, and when she brought it in she didnt cut any material off, my dress was loose, she didnt care. Anything I wanted fixed, she had some excuse to as to why she couldnt do it. Shes honestly a JOKE. Do not use her, even if sherry says to go there, DONT.

My wedding was scheduled to happen during this horrible pandemic, Isa made sure I had my dress for the small ceremony my (now) husband and I had. Isa is professional, and very good at what she does. Isa cares about her clients and makes every effort to ensure that they are happy and leave satisfied. I would recommend Isa to anyone.

I got my wedding dress altered at Isa Designs because I had purchased it from the shop next door and received a discount coupon for alterations with Isa. I had to get the dress hemmed, cups added, bustle added, and belt attached. The final product was great and just what I'd hoped for, but I do think the price was a lot. Even with the discount coupon I paid nearly $500 for the services, each button/loop for the bustle was $50 (I needed 3) which I thought to be quite a lot. I am happy with the results but would recommend shopping around for potentially a better price.

My mom and I have been bringing our clothes to Isa for a few years now. We are so pleased with her work! She initially worked on my bridal gown and bridesmaid dresses. Most recently, she altered our dresses for my baby shower. My dress was a few sizes too big to accommodate my belly bump, and Isa was able to alter the dress to fit me perfectly. Isa is warm, friendly and makes you feel so incredible in your outfit. I highly recommend Isa. She is very experienced, and really she can do anything you want to your dress. There have been a few instances when other seamstresses have told me that I couldn

Isa has done my bridal dress and all my bridesmaid dresses. I have continued to go to her for many years. She designed my daughters baptism dress, has designed and made me dresses and even helped out very last minute. There is no other person I would trust. She is very honest and to the point! Highly recommended.
