I really cannot rate Jo highly enough.
I had a beautiful Sassi Holford dress that I had fallen in love with but it didn’t fit my body shape well at all and was giving me a lot of anxiety by the time I went to see Jo, only a few weeks before our wedding (so very late in the day!).
Jo turned it all around for me and quite frankly worked an absolute miracle. Her calmness, experience, reassurance, excellent sense of humour, flexibility and amazing talent gave me complete peace of mind. And it culminated with making me feel like a million dollars on the day. It’s all thanks to Jo.
Jo did all the alterations to the dress I was wanting too, after we discussed it through - like changing the ends to the sleeves and removing a lot of the train. She makes unbelievably light work of things. I don’t know how she does it!

I cannot recommend Jo enough! She was so patient and really listened to what I wanted to achieve with my dress. I ended up with the dress of my dreams, it fitted perfectly and she made me feel at ease throughout the whole process.

“Thank you for making me feel like a queen on my wedding day… She (the dress) fit absolutely perfectly and I just didn’t want to take my dress off!!!…You made alterations so easy and I just felt so special!!!…It’s one thing to buy a dress, but to actually feel confident and comfortable in it is just another thing, completely and truly an art, thank you so very much.”

“Jo saved my wedding dress confidence! I bought a dress I loved, but was a bit ill fitting and I started to doubt my choice. Jo came and saved the day. Altering the length, taking it all in, adding a belt seamlessly to make it look like it had been there the whole time, and slightly changing the shape of the shoulders. She also completely altered a dress for my hen party for me to make it my dream sparkly party dress. In all of our fittings Jo was kind, super talented, reassuring and calm, and quite possibly the sweetest person I met in my wedding planning days. I can not recommend Joanna enough”

“Jo made some amendments to my wedding dress. She did an incredible job and made it fit perfectly! I felt amazing in it. She added a bustle, amended the hem loop, adjusted the chest and shoulders and added cups. She came to my home to do the fittings, which was ideal for me, and she made me feel so relaxed and fab throughout. She was so lovely, extremely professional and worked quickly, I'd definitely recommend!!!”

“Jo made my wedding dress tailoring experience absolutely incredible. She has a fantastic way with people, she made me feel at ease, confident in her ability and excited all in one go. My vision for my dress was taken by her and when it came back for the first time, it surpassed my expectations. Jo was very patient when it came to alterations, even the smallest detail wasn’t too much trouble for her to change or adapt. Her wealth of knowledge and experience meant that I felt comfortable and beautiful in my dress, something that I thought would be tricky to achieve.
Jo also altered my bridesmaids dresses and my mum’s outfit, so she really knew my wedding inside out by the time we had finished! I felt in safe hands when it came to my dress, but I also knew that Jo really cared about the person behind the dress which is what made my experience even more special than I thought it could be.”

“Getting my dress fitted with Jo was such a lovely experience from start to finish. She transformed what was initially a strapless dress into one with a beautiful queen neckline with a key hole back and I couldn't have been more impressed with the results. Even to this day, friends are still surprised that the dress was initially strapless! Jo is so very talented with a genuine passion for making the dress fit perfectly, making fantastic suggestions and giving excellent advice along the way. Her kindness, enthusiasm and understanding were second to none and nothing was too much trouble. I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you so much, Gem”

“Jo altered my wedding dress and did a fantastic job! Jo's very friendly and makes you feel comfortable and at ease instantly. She was extremely thorough and very accommodating. I recommended Jo to my best friend also,who was getting married prior to the arrival of her baby boy - she did such a fab job with a rapidly expanding waistline and you could barely even tell she was pregnant from front on! Jo also worked miracles with a velvet bridesmaid dress that needed to fit me whilst I was pregnant too.”

“Jo helped me with my dress from start to finish in preparation for our wedding in Greece. There was never any doubt of her capabilities to make it look wonderful and the fit was perfect. She also kindly altered my bridesmaid dresses to perfection. I would highly recommend Jo, you'll be in safe hands.”

She put me at ease straightaway, nothing was too much trouble for her and she reassured me I'd made the right choice then worked her magic by transforming my dress to fit me just perfectly. Jo is patient, calm and understands that every bride needs to be treated with the special touch!"
