Creating new memories from the treasured past

New project creating new memories from the treasured past.


Taking the brides mother’s wedding dress to design a custom veil with the delicate train ruffle and accessories for her wedding day. Keepsake hankies for her family, lace for her bouquet handle and a heart shaped patch that will be sewn into her gown over her heart to carry her mother’s memory with her always on her wedding day.


What can I create for you with your treasured past?

Bride Kamica Review of Gown Recreation

Michelle Renee was truly God sent to me.  I had this wedding gown that I purchased back in 1997.  Unfortunately, the wedding never happened.  This gown had the puffy sleeves and was totally an 80’s gown.
I went to a lady that usually does all my alterations and she dared not touch the gown to bring it into 2019.  She felt that it was too much detail to cut through and she didn’t want to ruin my gown.
So, my mother just browsed the internet for someone that did alterations and she came across Michelle Renee.  I thought it was someone that my mother knew and knew the type of work this woman has done.  To find out she did not know her nor did she know what type of work this woman has done in the past.  I was nervous.
I met Michelle Renee and she appeared to be a very nice woman and was anxious to take on the task. Little did I know until later that she prayed to God when I left that she would be able to give me the gown that I wanted.
During the recreation of my gown I’ve grown to put everything into Michelle Renee’s hands.  I trusted she was able to do what I needed. 
On the very last fitting of my gown, I could not believe what she turned that old 80’s gown into.  I felt and looked like a princess.  We could not believe what the gown started at and what it looked like when the entire process was finished.
When I say amazing, I mean she did a fabulous job and once again God answered by prayers by finding me the one to make my dress the one for my big day.
