    My grandmother, who passed away nearly 8 years, was an idyllic lady, had a kind soul & such a joy to be around. She was loving, supportive & the perfect grandmother. So when it came down to finding a designer would made me feel comfortable redesigning my grandmothers wedding dress, it wasn't an easy task. I needed to feel 100+% confident that they were a true professional and the best when it came down to pulling apart pieces of her dress.

    ... If I would've gone through this process again, I would choose Alice Padrul. Her designs are exquisite & 1 of a kind. It's the ideal studio with a private & personal touch.... and fun!!

    Thank you so much Alice.

    I cannot recommend Alice Padrul enough. From the moment you walk into her welcoming studio, you know that you're in for a completely different experience.

    Alice custom designed my wedding gown, and worked closely with me over ten months to ensure the dress was perfection. From choosing between numerous fabrics and different whites, to choosing a lace and building a muslin version of the dress first--Alice made sure everything was perfect. ...

    I was filtered the first time, but I'm back! Wow! Alice Padrul's designs are fantastic! As a Chicago wedding planner, I will most definitely recommend her to my clients. Her handmade dresses and veils are beyond incredible!

    When I met with Alice I was blown away by the luxurious fabrics and detail that is put into every piece. She is extremely professional and has many years of experience. Highly recommended!
