A recent example of how Gigi works is found in this testimonial from her
client, Katherine Hoover:
"I had been in search of the “perfect accessories”
to match the “perfect dress” I had painstakingly selected for my rehearsal
dinner. I was looking for something totally different and unique. After
looking all over Charleston and several online custom jewelry designers, my
cousin suggested that I look at this website for a jewelry designer in
California, Gigi Garner. One quick glance at her website and I knew Gigi’s
designs were exactly what I was looking for! The only problem was that I
was emailing a designer who designs for dozens of Hollywood stars, 10 days
before my rehearsal dinner. I thought even if I heard back from her there
would be no way that she could ever get me the jewelry in time. Gigi emailed
me back that day and 24 hours later the “PERFECT accessories” were on their
way across the country in plenty of time for my rehearsal dinner!
Gigi’s style speaks for itself; her designs are so
beautifully classic and yet totally unique. Aside from her fabulous pieces,
I can not say enough good things about working with her. She was by far the
easiest person I dealt with when putting everything together for this
wedding. She made me feel like I was her most important client, which says a
lot considering some of her clients! If every wedding vendor was like this,
brides would be a lot less stressed! It was a wonderful experience working
with Gigi, can not wait to find another “perfect dress” for her to
accessorize!" Katherine Hoover
