Q:
Do you offer embroidery for veils?
A:
No ….sorry I don’t. It is very difficult to embroider on tulle (veil fabric). I have seen people paint on tulle. Reene

Renee is the absolute best! She is kind, reliable, and an absolute pleasure to work with! She really listened to what I wanted and gave me multiple ideas and suggestions to alter my dress just the way I was hoping for! I was more than pleased with the results, and felt so comfortable, confident, and beautiful in my dress on my wedding day. I highly recommend her to any bride or bridesmaid looking for alterations. I am so grateful to have found her!

You've seen the other 5 star reviews, I promise Reene is great! She's been doing this for years, so she definitely will share her professional opinions with you (what looks good, etc).
She did minor alterations for my wedding dress, but I was thrilled with how she pressed the gown! It was so wrinkly before and it looked like a completely new dress (in a good way)! Would 100% recommend.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Vanessa P.San Francisco, CA021Sep 5, 2023
I have only a few things to complain. Besides her poor manners and sarcastic humor- I could get past that if the job is done well- I felt my 3 appointments to see her were a hassle because of the poor quality my gown was completed. When I got home I was lucky to have found the 5 pins left on the bottom on my gown. The straps were still not fitted well and one strap ripped off completely 30 min before my ceremony (I was lucky to have brought my own needle & thread to sew it quick ). I noticed my dress looked a bit more dirty when I got to take it home. Renee said I shouldn't take it to the cleaners since it's "not dirty at all". I also did not like how my cup size was not fitted well. Renee kinda impatiently rushes me each appointment to pick what cup I want or how I want my straps tightened. Maybe it's be best if she brings her workers to do the fitting she may be losing her touch. I give her 3 stars bcuz idk I'm nice? I want to give her 1 bcuz the price was not worth it at all and my dress was super low maintenance (tule cut one length, straps inserted, cups sewed in). Only came here bcuz I love Adina from Adina's bridal and she recommended In Stitches.

There are not enough words in the dictionary to describe how marvelous Ms. Reene is! I am so lucky to have her as my wedding seamstress, and know that I've made a lifelong friend to boot!
Reene was recommended by my bridal salon, ForLove Bridal, and I am forever indebted because of that. Reene's smart, full of wit and her vast knowledge of fitting and alterations has been mastered over many decades.
I have never had so much fun with a seamstress than I've had with Reene. She makes the entire process so easy, and I love her recommendations. It is by far one of the easiest things I've done throughout the wedding planning process. She is so accommodating and dedicated to making her clients feel at ease and beautiful. I am more than confident in her abilities - she is a true magician!
With Reene, you're really working with the class act. You cannot find anyone better for wedding gown and dress alterations.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Hailey B.Glendora, CA2561111Dec 1, 2022
Where do I start? Reene, is absolutely amazing and very talented. In September I had a free consultation with her for alterations on my wedding dress. She gave me a few ideas and options on what we could do and what it needed. She was very helpful and my dress was perfectly tailored for me on my wedding day. I'm so thankful to have found her and will definitely be a returning customer!
In addition, she also offers wedding dress preservation and cleaning!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ghazal S.Los Angeles, CA208134Jun 1, 2023
Reene is an absolute godsend!! She altered two wedding dresses for me. One was originally made for me in Cambodia, and was very difficult to work with. However, she worked her magic, and it looks amazing! I cannot recommend her enough, she is funny, kind, and so talented! If you need your wedding dress altered, don't look anywhere else! By the end of my fittings she felt more like a dear friend!

Love Reene! She's sweet, relatable and very skilled at what she does! She altered my wedding dress perfectly and even made a few additions that made all the difference without altering the integrity/classic look of the dress. I've been to her for bridesmaids dresses for other weddings I've attended as well! Skip the insanely priced wedding alterations businesses that your wedding dress boutique recommends and have a consult with Reene instead. Well worth it!

Thank you again Renee:)!! Love you!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jessica H.Simi Valley, CA05435Oct 25, 2022
Reene is literally amazing. She's the sweetest and so professional and passionate about what she's doing. Her and I referred to my dress as "the 7 layer cake" LOL and it had different lengths of those layers....some needed to be shortened while others had to have fabric added since they were too short...also...my bustle was absolutely gorgeous as well. She also added bra pads in my dress which made my strapless dress feel more secure. I just loved each of our appointments and I miss her already. An absolute gem. Would recommend her to each and every bride!
