By my early teens I was designing and creating many of my own costumes and headpieces. After earning a degree in dance, I knew my passion for sewing and design was where my future lay. Creating for bridal satisfied my desire to work with all the fabrics and materials I so fervently fell for as a child.

Colleen did a fantastic job altering my wedding dress. She is obviously incredibly skilled and knows her stuff. She gave incredible recommendations and suggestions to make sure I had the best fit and looked my best on my wedding day. My original wedding was scheduled for April 2020 and I had my final fitting right before everything shut down with COVID - she kept my dress for me for several months and was incredibly supportive when I had to reschedule my wedding twice over the next year and a half. When I finally got to wear my dress, it fit like a glove. I highly recommend working with Colleen

Colleen was a dream to work with. She is an artist, engineer, and miracle worker all wrapped into one sweet person. She was easy to get in touch with from the start and made each subsequent appointment before I left the shop. I could tell she knew her stuff and was not going to cut any corners. Her pricing is definitely reasonable, especially considering the amount of care she puts into each dress. She offered options for my dress and would often guide me toward the most cost effective option, which made me trust her even more. White Orchid is beautifully decorated and it’s very intimate. You

I absolutely loved working with Colleen! The process was easy, simple, and so much fun. She was very excited to work on my gown. My gown is made of organza which is a tricky fabric to work with. Colleen did it with ease and was great about listening to what I wanted while also sharing her opinion with me. She truly knows her stuff and is the best in the Atlanta market!

Coleen is AMAZING. There isn’t anyone else I’d trust to tackle my gown. She is incredibly knowledgeable about gown design and can figure out the best way to make you glow in your dress. Book with her as early as possible as she is incredibly busy (for good reason, she’s the best in town). Thank you so much for making my dress dreams come true :)

Colleen is amazing at what she does! I'm a pretty particular person and I had a vision in my mind of what I wanted my wedding dress to look like. When I first told Colleen I wanted to change the neckline of my dress she definitely hesitated - and I mean this in the best way! She didn't just say "Yes, no problem." She stopped, thought about it, and spoke with me about some of the potential problems of changing the neckline given the fabric of my dress, which was a ripped crepe (think corduroy). After we talked through some of the solutions, Colleen got straight to work. We only had a month until

If you want quality work see Colleen! I was recommended to Colleen by a friend. She told me that Colleen was very old school and did most things still by paper and pen (not by email and texts). At first, that kind of made me uneasy with all the stress of wedding planning, but when I met Colleen and learned just how passionate she is about her craft all of my anxiety went out the window. Colleen is so good! She knows her stuff and prides herself on the quality of her work. She will only take enough clients that she knows she can handle appropriately. She will only suggest work that she feels will

I can not recommend Colleen at White Orchid Bridal enough. She was so knowledgeable about my dress and made suggestions I didn't even think of. I was a little nervous going into consultations about my size and if they dress would fit, but I ALWAYS left feeling so great about myself. She altered the dress perfectly, and I was so confident on my wedding day. THANK YOU Colleen!

I feel incredibly fortunate to have found White Orchid Bridal to alter my wedding dress. It seems like a small part of the wedding planning process, yet during a time when all the planning seemed so stressful, this part was my FAVORITE. I came to her with a cheap dress bought online, with a rushed deadline and I couldn’t be more grateful for her honesty and thoroughness in assessing what I had on my hands. It didn’t work out with that dress and I am so glad it didn’t. I realized it wasn’t worth spending the money on alterations. Then, I was able to get a gorgeous dress from my dream designer

Colleen made the alterations to my BHLDN Sawyer gown for our small September wedding. White Orchid came recommended by BHLDN in Atlanta, where I purchased my dress. With all the options out there, it was nice to have some guidance. I walked in for my initial fitting thinking the dress needed some hemming and not much else. By the time Colleen was finished pulling and pinning the dress into shape, it looked 10 times better than out of the box. When I picked the dress up on my final appointment it fit like a dream. Everyone at the wedding said the dress looked like it was made for me. Colleen does
