"Mari\u00E9e is the most wonderful place you could ever go to find your dress!!! \n\nI had been pinning the Kaliah gown by Watters since before my engagement and thought I'd have to travel out of state to be able to try it on. I found out that Mari\u00E9e was having a Watters trunk show and ended up reaching out to James and Carrie to find out if Kaliah would be included in the line up of trunk show gowns. \nI was super bummed to find out it wasn't going to be part of the show, but they convinced me to come anyways just for good measure.\n\nThis is the best part: I arrived for my appointment and they walked me back to the dressing room. To my total surprise, my DREAM dress was hanging in the dressing room, ready for me to try on!!!!!!! It was the sweetest thing for them to surprise me like that and it was so meaningful to know that they had done some behind the scenes work to get the dress in for me. \n\nMy first time trying on dresses, I bought the one I'd been obsessed with for over a year!!! \n\nAdditionally, they recommended Cindy Desjardins as my seamstress/fairy godmother. In 9 fittings, she literally created a support system for my extremely large bust in a dress that was definitely not made for my body type. I couldn't even believe how perfect everything ended up. \n\nI would and do recommend Mari\u00E9e and Cindy to every single bride I meet!!!"^^ .
