Rose created for me the perfect, most stunning wedding gown for my destination wedding in Mexico. I initially wanted something totally different, but she politely (and wisely) explained it probably wouldnt work for my figure, then designed the perfect gown made of the most beautiful lace. It was all her idea, from the lace she chose, to the cut, and the idea to have it sheer from mid-thigh down. it fit and draped beautifully. So many people stopped me to tell me how beautiful it was. Rose was a pleasure to work with and a true professional.
I had searched in so many stores and even online for a wedding dress and couldnt find exactly what I had been envisioning. Rose was able to take the parts of a few different dresses I liked and put them together into a beautiful sketch of the perfect gown! Just had my fitting with her and had so much fun...she listened to all my concerns and moved the fabric around so it had the exact neckline etc I was looking for. Rose is wonderful to work with and I cant wait to see what my dress turns out like! I will be back again with pictures after our wedding :).
SO much that I could write for this review! First of all, I LOVED my dress! A little background on my dress. I used my mothers 30 year old lace dress with VERY poofy sleeves. I knew I wanted to use her dress and we looked for a designer high and low. A family friend suggested Rose and after meeting with her we were sold! Rose is straight forward, honest and creative. She did an amazing job listening to what I wanted in a dress and creating a dress that would make my body look amazing. I danced ALL night long and did not touch my dress to readjust. The best part of this whole process is that Rose kept the dress so similar to my mothers, which is exactly what I wanted. I am from out of town and Rose worked with my schedule and we were able to meet on times that worked for me. It was such an amazing process!My wedding was a dream come true and know I would have felt differently had my dress not been as perfect as it was. I cant wait for one day my daughter to use the dress that both I have worn and my mother! Thank you Rose!
Wow! Where do I start...? First of all, my dress was gorgeous and perfect.I found Cinderellas Closet after seaching for over 8 months of trying on, what seems like a million gowns and none of them working out. My MOH suggested I have my wedding dress custom made, so I started Googling custom wedding dress designers and searching on Pinterest. Rose DeSimones name kept popping up, so gave her a call.She was so charming, right from the start, and I could tell she has a lot of passion for what she does. She spent over an hour with me on the phone walking me through the process and asking detailed questions about what I was looking for. I felt as though she really listened and got me, so I scheduled an appointment for our first consultation (I live in Long Beach and her studio is in Carlsbad, San Diego so she worked around my schedule and drive times, which was very nice)Rose has great reviews and awards all over Yelp and other websites, so I was expecting great things and I was not disappointed! She was a true professional and knows her craft. I hired her to design my weding gown that day. She took my measurements and talked about any concerns I had with my body (I did, who doesnt, LOL), so she could make sure the fit of my dress worked for my figure. I never really had thought much about that, before, but it made all the difference in the world because I looked so great in my wedding dress! It fit perfectly.I have to say, I was a bit nervous having my wedding dress custom made, but after experiencing true couture, I can highly recommend Rose DeSimone to design your wedding gown, but just relax and let her take care of you. Tell her all your expectations and then just step back, let her do her thing, and watch the magic happen! Everone absolutely loved my gown and I felt so happy!PS: Rose was also helpful with some referrals to other wedding pros. She hooked me up with a wonderful wedding planner, a sweet spray tanning pro, a lighting guy, and a florist!!! All of them 1st class and the team made my wedding so easy and fun.
