Heidi Elnora - Atlanta

My wedding dress was designed by the talented Heidi Elnora. The dress was aboslutely amazing! Heidi is so kind and sweet and was a joy to work with. She was so patient with me and worked closely with me to design my perfect dress. It seriously was the most beautiful dress I have ever seen!

I could not have been happier with Heidi Elnora. She was wonderful to work with from the start and made me feel like I was the only bride she was working with (when I knew there were many many more!). The dress and veil were exactly what I wanted and more beautiful than I could have imagined! After a long and tedious search for a bridal gown, with vendors that were not paying attention to my likes/dislikes, I finally found Heidi Elnora. She is a true gem and her work is very very high quality. I would recommend her to anyone!

My experience was with her Alabama location. It was 6 weeks before my wedding day. Instead of looking forward to shopping for my dress I dreaded it. Every boutique I went to tried to tell me what I wanted. Although they asked me what I wanted they didn't listen. I looked at David's Bridal, expensive boutiques and all places in between but I couldn't find anything that I wanted. The dresses were over priced and over rated or over priced and cheap looking or just plain bad.Heidi was amazing. I stumbled upon her website while google map searching and I am so lucky to have found her. I told her my budget and a general idea of what I wanted and I went in to see her. Immediately I felt at ease. She asked me about my wedding colors, what I liked, things I enjoyed etc. and designed my dress for me right there! I told her my budget and she gave me several options that i could afford! In less than 5 weeks I had my completed finished dress; fitted to me perfectly!In summary: Heidi is a very talented designer who listens to what you want and doesn't tell you what you "need." She is professional, more than competant, efficient, and will work with you to stay within your budget (or go a little outside of it if you want to :). Just let go and trust her with your dress!

Words can not explain the experience of creating my gown with Heidi, but I will try my best. From the first time I met her, I felt like I'd known her forever. It was so comforting to feel like I was just talking with a friend every time we had an appointment. We would talk about work, family, friends, and stresses of life which always made me feel like a friend, not someone she just wanted a check from (which was a nice change from the meetings you usually have with vendors). Heidi really took the time to get to know me which made my gown even more perfect for me and my Big Day! It was gorgeous. I'd been to 6 stores and tried on hundreds of dresses, but the custom couture gown Heidi made for me was a million times better than anything I'd ever seen. When I think about all this, it makes me wonder how I was able to leave Heidi's shop without owing her tens of thousands of dollars. I don't remember exactly how much the gown was, but every penny was worth it. My mom told me later that Heidi could have told us it was twice the price and she still would have paid it because of how amazing I looked in it. I can honestly say that I am more happy with Heidi than any other vendor I used for my wedding. She is incredibly talented, sweet, and welcomes you into her life. I can't imagine having gone through the wedding planning process without her. She was always there to help me, listen to me, and offer advice whenever she could. If you can't find the gown of your dreams, you should definitely go to Heidi! She will put your dreams on paper, then make them come to life. If you think you've found the gown of your dreams, make an appointment with her anyway, because I know she will change your mind like she did mine. I had "the perfect dress" picked out, but when I saw the sketch Heidi made for me, I knew the other one wouldn't hold a candle to it. And, of course, no one in the world can walk into a wedding gown shop and buy my dress because it was made just for me. Talk about making a Bride feel special. Heidi knows how to do it!

Heidi could not have been more accommodating from scheduling appointments to alterations and changes. She was extremely, reasonably priced without compromising quality. A fun, smart, energetic, and keen eye for style is Heidi. I recommend her to any bride looking for a custom designed dress as well as a reconfiguration of an existing dress as she did for me.Blair Guy Smith

I had a wonderful experience with Heidi! Although my dress was not designed from scratch, she helped rework my mother's dress to create something special and fresh for my wedding while still retaining it's heritage. Both my mother and I were very please at the final fitting and overwhelmed by Heidi's sincerity and energy. She is very professional and the quality top notch!
