They did such a great job!! No regrets!!
I ordered bride and groom wedding dress bears for my granddaughter and they are absolutely gorgeous! They were beyond my expectations and even more beautiful than I imagined. Everyone at this company was wonderful to work with from start to finish. They incorporated every intricate detail of my wedding dress onto both bears. The bride's back and veil matched my wedding dress perfectly. Someone was in contact with me every step of the way. They even sent a picture when I mentioned that I couldn't wait to see the bears. I love them and my daughter and granddaughter were so excited when they saw them. They are going to be a wonderful remembrance for my granddaughter. Thank you so much for making these beautiful bears!
I love the way it came out and have recieved a ton of compliments ❣️
Before my mother died, she insisted I take her mother’s wedding dress. It was in the same box it was placed in after her wedding in the 1930’s. I even tried it on years ago at my mother’s insistence to see if it would fit for my own wedding. My grandmother stood at a proud 5’2”. I am 5’8”. Back in the box it went. I decided to have it made into a Memory Bear so at least it was on display somehow and in an adorable way. I made the right choice! The Patchwork Bear did a fabulous job!
I don't know what I really expected, but when I got my bears, I started to cry! I am so thrilled with the love and care that obviously went into crafting these. My dress had languished in a box for 25 years, and you have given me my wedding day, all over again Thank you so much!
I had a bear, lap quilt, and pillows made from my daughter's wedding dress and the items I ordered were AMAZING! They turned out even better than I had expected. The Patchwork Bear did a phenomenal job and I couldn't be more pleased. I gave ideas of what I envisioned and they carried them through perfectly. These are keepsakes we will cherish forever. Instead of putting her wedding dress in a closet and never seeing it, my daughter can place these items on display and smile as she remembers her wedding day over and over and over. Highly recommend!!! 10/10
5 Star, personal experience start to finish! Love the bear, and such a great keepsake from our wedding!
What a beautiful keepsake. We surprised my mom with a bear made from her wedding dress. My Dad passed away in January and this would been their 50th wedding anniversary. The bear brought mom to tears. It was beautifully done and we will treasure it.
