African dressmaker/seamstress in Houston area?

The Gyamfis, on January 22, 2016 at 7:01 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 16

WeddingWire was such a great tool when I was planning my wedding and now I'm back to seek yall's help this time for my sister bride to be. I currently live in the DC area while she lives in Austin but her wedding will be in Houston. she needs me to help her find a dressmaker/seamstress in Houston to sow her and FH's attire for their Ghanaian traditional marriage. I have great contacts in the DMV who can help but she doesn't want to travel for fitting and stuff so are there any Africans on here in Houston area who can help me or know of any good African traditional dressmaker/seamstress in the Houston area? preferably Ghanaian who can make any dress like in pictures shown below. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Congratulations on your engagement. Those dresses are beautiful. I can't help you as far as Houston, I live the DMV...but I'm bumping thread, hopefully you'll find someone who knows.

    Can't any seamstress/tailor make the dress? Show her/him pics, maybe find a pattern?

    If you have a good dress maker in your area it might be worth it for her to travel.

    Thanks guys and @Sqwiggy that is my recommendation cus in the end she'll have to come here for the traditional ceremony since family lives here. It's the church wedding that will be in Houston but I'm trying to help make her life as easy as possible

    Hello Nefertiti,
    I didn’t find anyone at the time so she ended up getting it done here in the DMV.
    Let me know if you’re looking and I’ll ask around for you
