Dear Diana,

I just wanted to thank you for all you did for me in preparation for my wedding day! The six custom-designed bridesmaid dresses were absolutely beautiful and turned out to be just what we had in mind.  The color and style really set the tone for our entire outdoor garden wedding on Maryland's Eastern Shore.  Many of the girls have worn the dresses for other occasions - a rarity with most bridesmaid dresses!

In a major emergency situation only a few weeks before the wedding, you succeeded where others had failed (two others to be exact) - you made my Christos wedding gown fit like a glove!  I have never had a strapless fit me so well.  That dress was an absolutely perfect fit, even with all the dancing we did. I think my only regret is not agreeing to let you make my Mom a dress for the wedding.

Thank you again for everything. You are an amazing and inspirational person.  I value your creativity, unmatched talent, and especially your honesty.  I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind dress or custom alteration for any dress by any designer. You are truly the best!

Dear Diana,

With apologies for the delay.  I am very pleased to enclose several pictures that I thought you might enjoy. I think it is not an exaggeration to say that my wedding dress was a big hit.  Both Linda and I received numerous glowing compliments about our dresses.

I am indebted to you for all your efforts and wonderful advice to help make my wedding day so special and memorable.

Best wishes -Lisa Kuhn

Happy New Year Diana!!! Bambi here.  Hope you had a wonderful Xmas and New Year, and hope the renovations with your shop are moving along swiftly. It’s been a busy first couple of months.  From Nigeria, went to Cairo and London, got back and have been very busy.  Just wanted to let you know that I didn’t forget about you.  The wedding went beautifully, thank God.  Your dress was a KNOCK-OUT!!! Everyone absolutely loved it and were so impressed with the sleeves.  And nope, the church didn’t throw me out – they felt I was covered enough I guess.  The sleeves stayed on, the fit was so flattering.

I want to say a BIG and hearty thanks for everything.  Your patience, wonderful ideas that eventually produced the finished product, and your genuinely sweet spirit.  You were an absolute pleasure to work with. I’ve attached pictures – enjoy!!! Have a wonderful year!

All the best, Bambi (please let me know that you got this)

Ps. My Aunt’s been going nuts with your cook book by the way – cooking up a storm!!

Dear Diana,

A huge Thank you for my lovely red silk dress that you created for our December 2007 wedding.  It looked and felt fantastic, and helped to make it a wonderful day for Keith and I.  With warmest wishes.

Hi Diana-
Thank you so much for all your hard work and the beautiful dresses.  We will be sure to send you pictures from the wedding which will take place January 23rd in Hawaii.  For now here are the pics of Kali trying on the little red flower girl dress you made for her.  I think she looks absolutely adorable.  She loves the dress and was twirling around it it!
Thanks again,

I found a dress that I really liked but did not love. I loved the layers of chiffon that rippled down it like a wedding cake but it was a mermaid cut which I did not care for, and a few sized too big. I took the dress to Diana (the miracle worker) and she agreed to help me. She basically had to unstich each layer, take it in, and rebuild the dress from scratch... all the while she was busy planning, hosting, and sewing for her daughter's wedding making all of the dresses as well as taking care of other customers. Diana is wonder-woman and is creative and fun, but also a perfectionist. My dress was perfect and no one could see all the work Diana had to put into it. If I did anything differently, I would have just gone to Diana initially with my ideas and had her make me a custom dress because her work is fabulous and she gives a fair price. I was also able to get my veil from her. I also want to mention that my mother goes to Diana for all of her alterations and has always been impressed and pleased with the work that was done...as was I!
