    The BEST designer!!

    I had the most amazing experience with Katerina. She is so talented and absolutely knows what she is doing. The best in the game! I LOVED my wedding dress and Katerina showed such great care and paid attention to all the little details to make sure my dress fit perfectly. She has an artistic vision and often gets ideas about designing the dress during your fittings- a true artist and designer! She is professional, kind, and an amazing human being. She truly cares about her brides. The quality of her dresses is excellent and she puts 100% into her work. Her dresses are custom fit, designed for you, and they are all just so beautiful. You will not go wrong with Katerina. Katerina Bocci was one of the best wedding experiences I had and I can’t recommend her enough.

    Taking Something Blue to the Next Level!!🩵💙🤍💍👰🏽‍♀️

    Words cannot describe how phenomenal a job Katerina and her team did on my dream dress! When I tell you, she went above and beyond throughout the whole process that would be an understatement!! Not only did she make this dress come to life from a sketch which I will share more about later, but she also got to know me as a person before making the dress so she could add every element to it. I had a vision of having an avant-garde, whimsical, and unique dress for my wedding day that could transition into different luxe looks throughout the night.
    There are a number of ways I could’ve worn this dress, and there are plenty more ideas that I could’ve done. I loved the Italian silk mikado she imported from Italy as well as the blue tulle because it allowed me to have an element of “something blue.” I also had two different veils that I transitioned to throughout the night. The first veil was a very long and beautifully made veil with many details on it that included an A & E with our initials on it, as well as pearls and crystals and little blue flowers to accent. I also had a second veil that had real blue crystals that I wore for the after party, and the reception! The shoulder piece was also a unique touch, because it was a blue tulle detachable piece as well. She also placed blue flowers on the right, and then an asymmetrical look with blue flowers on the tulle skirt. This dress was so intricately made I absolutely loved it. I had a classic white look with an added white silk mikado skirt to give an A-line look, as well as the blue tulle skirt that went on top of the white. I was even able to wear the dress as a simple off the shoulder fitted look! I could go on and on about the wonderful customer service that Katerina provided. I truly feel like she’s a part of my family now and I can’t wait to keep in touch with her because you never know who else might need a custom dress made by her after this breathtaking look! 💍🤍👰🏽‍♀️😍🙏🏽💙🩵

    A dream come true!

    Katerina Bocci is simply one of a kind!!! She is one of the most talented people I have ever met. Katerina and her team poured their heart and soul into creating the most magical, haute couture dress I could’ve dreamed of, and made me feel like a true princess. My wedding dress looked so royal and grand, yet it was so comfortable to dance in — even though I had a super long train!
    I decided to give Katerina and her team full creative freedom, and boy did they deliver!!! Aside from the dress, my veil was the next best thing — What a showstopper!!! If I had to do this all over again, I would in the blink of an eye.
    Katerina’s personality is the cherry on top; she truly cares for her brides and is one of the most honest and genuine people I’ve ever met. She always makes sure that her brides look their absolute best on their wedding day and genuinely cares about them. 1000/10!!!
    Thank you for everything, Katerina + Team!
    Lots of love for you all!

    Amazing from start to finish

    Katerina and her team became family to me very quickly. Before coming to Katerina, I went to many wedding dress shops and I never found anything I was truly in love with and wanted to make changes to everything I tried on. I decided to go see Katerina before going to the bridal boutiques in Chicago. She asked me many questions about my vision and me as a person, and drew up a beautiful design. I'm a picky person and she was so patient with me, bringing out so many different fabrics until I finally found one I loved. I'm so happy I chose to go through her, my dress will always be a one of a kind dress that no one else will have and it was made to fit my body perfectly. My dress, veil, detachable skirt, and jacket was all made with the same fabric and flowed together beautifully. Because the pieces were so versatile, I was able to have 3 different looks with my dress. Every single fitting was filled with so much love and excitement. Katerina is not like a typical bridal salon, she just doesn't make your dress and send you on your way. She brings your vision to life, teaches you how to stand in photos, walk down the aisle, and sets you up to have a smooth wedding day. I could not be more grateful to have worked with her and her amazing team.

    The best decision I’ve ever made!!

    Katerina is the sweetest person I’ve ever met! She cares about each and every one of her brides. Every dress she makes is different and is made specifically for that bride. Katerina and her team made my dream dress a reality! I trusted her fully with the design and she created the most beautiful dress I’ve ever seen!! Katerina is not the only talented one… her daughter Lela creates the most beautiful accessories to go perfect with each dress. I got so many compliments on my head piece, veil and dress! Choosing to work with beautiful Katerina and her team was the best decision!!

    The most beautiful wedding dress ever

    Katerina is literally an angel on Earth!! She and her team made bringing my dream wedding dress not only a reality, but something so so much more than I ever thought. They treated us like family, and it was always beautiful catching up with the women at the studio. I knew I didn’t want to “look” for a dress after getting engaged, as I wanted something timeless, and something that only I could say I had. I went into the first meeting telling Katerina everything I wanted and the intention I had for my dress after my wedding. After COVID led to me having to postpone my wedding, the team tweaked my dress to keep it up to date, but it remained true to my original intention. Katerina was kind enough to save the lace I chose, not offering it to another bride until after my wedding. The artistic eye, the attention to detail, and the love the team puts into creating a personal and meaningful dress for each bride is absolutely astounding. I am so blessed to have worked with Katerina and I’m so thankful to have a beautiful dress that I will pass to my children in years to come.
    I can’t wait to go back again for a baptism gown for our future children.

    Wedding dress of my DREAMS

    To say that my wedding dress and my experiences with Katerina, Lela, and zolga, was my favorite part of planning my wedding, it’s an understatement! These people truly have a heart of gold and will do all that they can with all of their heart and HAPPILY to do it just to make their brides look and feel like princesses on their wedding day. And that’s how it should be for all brides when they’re dress shopping for their dream dress. These people love and respect you and treat you like you are family and not just another bride. Katerina created a wedding dress of my DREAMS!! I was getting compliments all night on my dress and I am still getting compliments almost 2 months after my wedding! Katerina is amazing inside and out! incredibly talented, honest, and passionate about what she does. She knew exactly what I wanted and did beyond what I could’ve ever imagined my dream dress to be. Her mind and hands are honestly magic! She made my wedding dress not only one of a kind and UNIQUE but she took modern,traditional,sexy and classy and combined it all into my DREAM DRESS. I highly recommend her work and recommend that every future bride to go to Katerina the moment they decide to go bridal dress shopping. I promise, that after the first consultation there won’t any other place that you will want to go to after that. I was speechless through each fitting and I am beyond grateful for her, lela, and zolga and it was an experience that I will never forget! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH for being you and thank you making me feel a princess! You carry a heart of gold and your designs truly represent how unique and beautiful you are as a person!

    A dream come true!!

    Obsessed is an understatement! The best part about the experience is that Katerina brought my dream dress to life & the dress fit like a glove because it was made to fit me. The experience of seeing my gown go from pieces of fabric that I chose to the most beautiful gown is quite literally an experience that I will never forget. I got not one, but two dresses from here and I’m still amazed! Love them all there!

    The most amazing experience ever!!!

    Working with Katerina and her wonderful team was one of the absolute easiest parts of planning my wedding. Katerina is super attentive to her brides’ wants and needs, even while bringing her own talent and creativity to the table. She truly did more than bring my visions to life. Not only is she an amazing person herself but her designs are all so unique from one another and that’s what I feel makes her hands so special. I absolutely loved working with Katerina and her team! Truly, amazing people and amazing work! Thank you for making this whole process super smooth and exciting for me!! ♥️

    A fantasy too good to be true!

    Katerina Bocci is not only an incredible designer, but she also has a heart wrapped in pure gold. She turns dreams into dresses and transforms your anxiety into boundless confidence and love. I have never put a dress on and immediately fallen in love until I put on a KB dress. When you spend years fanaticizing about being a princess in a ball gown you never expect that feeling to be real, but Katerina makes it happen.

    Phenomenal!

    Katerina and her team are truly amazing. Words cannot describe how smooth they made the process from start to finish. I initially went to Katerina in October of 2019, and she designed my dress exactly how I had always imagined it. With COVID, my wedding was postponed and I never got to see my dress until January 2021. Words cannot describe the piece of art Katerina had created. It was beautiful and beyond my expectations - simply every girl’s dream dress. My fittings were so much fun, and it was the only place I never felt stressed while planning my wedding.
    For the quality, price, and professionalism, there is no other place I would have went had I known Katerina from the beginning.

    Dream come true!

    I had the opportunity to have Katerina design and make my wedding gown. Not only did my dress exceed my expectations, but the service and level of professionalism is unmatched. Katerina takes her time and provides both a service and a top notch product. She will even teach you how to walk and stand in your dress. These services are hard to find in your regular bridal boutique. Your time and satisfaction is important to Katerina and it’s evident in every meeting you have with her. Her gowns are all made in house and here in the USA, which was important to me, especially with planning a wedding during a global pandemic. If you are contemplating the idea of having her design your dream dress, I urge you to do it. I’m honored to be a KB Bride!!!

    Sept 2019 KB Bride

    Beautiful! My favorite part of the entire wedding planning process was going to Katerina for my bridal gown! She pours her heart into everything she creates & genuinely cares about each of her brides. I felt like a princess on my wedding day- I did not want to take my dress off by the end of the night! My dress was exactly what I wanted it to be- elegant & classy. I loved the Swarovski details on my gown, the beautiful elegant soft lace & the material was so comfortable. Love love love my dress! Katerina made each dress fitting so fun for me, each time I tried on my gown I fell in love with my dress all over again.

    Simply amazing!

    When it comes to Katerina I do not know if to start with how amazing of a person she is, or how talented and gorgeous her work is.
    My experience with her was amazing. She helped me so much to calm down and enjoy the process. She is always smiling, positive and open to accepting ideas from you.
    Honestly every bride needs a Katerina!

    Get your dress from Katerina! She is world class designer and sweetheart ♥️ June 5 2020

    I had bought my second look dress from Katerina after meeting her while making my mom’s dress. My ceremony and reception were different days due to covid and when I met Katerina I just knew I needed a second look from her even though I didn’t originally plan on wearing one!




    Working with Katerina was a true pleasure. She is beyond talented and brought my vision to life including my matching veil. Katerina is both warm and welcome while also giving you an elegant and five star treatment! She made me feel like the most special bride and was as excited about my big day as I was. I loved working with her and her daughter. Her daughter lela came and dressed me for my photos and Katerina came and dress me for my slow dance! When I needed a cake three weeks before my rescheduled reception she personally walked me over to the bakery and introduced me to the owners. I can’t say enough about them both. My mom and I bonded with them and every appointment was enjoyable and fun, even with the stress of a covid wedding. Katerina also made my mom’s mother of the bride dress and it was stunning, whimsical and so flattering and built for my mom’s figure. She makes the smallest the changes and builds the dress with you, even if that means you want another detail here or there.

    It was so much fun to design my dress with Katerina, she really includes you in every step of the process. I absolutely recommend her, her work and experience is priceless! I also bought my headpiece from
    Her daughter Lela’s business OreliaB Accessories!

    Note: Katerina made the butterfly dress, veil, my moms dress and I bought my headpiece from her daughter!

    Katerina is amazing. Not only is she a great designer with an impeccable attention to detail and design, she is also a great human being who cares about each and every one of her customers and does her absolute most for everyone. Katerina and her daughter, created my dream wedding look from the dress and accessories, to finding hair and makeup and a cake! She works tirelessly to make her brides happy and feel beautiful. Her dresses are one of a kind and top quality! She really pours her heart and soul into each design. I will cherish my Katerina Bocci couture dress forever!

    Deciding on a Katerina Bocci wedding gown was probably the easiest decision for me. All of my expectations were exceeded. The process was very easy and during each fitting I felt more and more like a princess. No detail was sparred in the making of my dream wedding dress. From the hand stitched gown and veil, to the beautiful orelia b headpiece everything came together perfectly. My dress completed my wedding and for me it was the highlight, I really felt like I was living in a fairytale. The service Katerina and her team provide you with is beyond exceptional. From the minute I walked in I felt so welcomed and now they are like family. You just develop a relationship over the many months and I truly mean it when I say my wedding would not have been the same without my custom Katerina dress. I look forward to working with Katerina again one day, as she is phenomenal in everything she does.

    Katerina and Bocci team made my dream come true. I dreamed of Katerina designing my wedding gown and it came true thanks to her. The Bocci team are so fun to work with❤️ So welcoming and loving 🥰 enjoyed wedding chats with Lela 💖 I visited Katerina’s studio back in 2015 and I couldn’t wait for day I got engaged to go design my wedding dress by Katerina. Everyone loved my dress and everything turned out perfect. She’s an amazing and talented angel 🥰 I do not regret a penny I spent there. Thank you Bocci team for making my dream come true.

    Best experience ever!

    Katerina & staff were so amazing to work with. They made my entire experience so easy. I couldn't have asked for a better designer, who is so patient and caring, to help create my dream dress. 10/10 would recommend!
