A massive thank you to you and your staff!! Your shop was the first shop I went too when looking for a wedding dress and on my first visit I walked away saying YES to the dress! And that had a lot to do with your amazing staff! They picked a dress that not only suited my style to a tee but also suited my figure and made me look like I actually had hips. A big winning factor was how comfortable I felt the whole time, I was always worried I wouldn’t enjoy the experience as I would feel pushed and pressured, but it was the complete opposite! I would highly recommend you to all of my family and friends!

Melissa saved my Wedding Dress! The gown had been made to measure from a reputable Australian Designer. However, when it arrived the lace on the bodice was misshaped and the neckline was uneven and far to low. I was unable to return the dress to the designer as they where unsure if would be ready due to the Christmas break. I was devastated but Melissa reassured me and returned my dress to its absolutely best. This could of been a disaster but it was better then I ever thought possible. As well as my extensive alterations Melissa also altered on of my bridesmaids dresses the week of the wedding. Incredible turn around. Thank you so much to all the ladies at Melissa E and Melissa I’m so incredibly thankful x
