My wedding dress was tiers of lace and sparkling fabric, and I was so scared to get this altered anywhere. My sister had her wedding dress altered at David's bridal and they butchered it. This will NOT happen with a professional like Beatrice. Beatrice took the care needed to both give a breakdown of cost in a consultation and had an amazingly fast turnaround! If you care about your dress invest in a quality seamstress. My veil was also from Beatrice and I adored it. It was a weight lifted off my shoulders because I was facing impossible timelines to get everything done. From the bottom of my heart I am so grateful to the amazing work Beatrice has done. read more

BRIDES BE AWARE OF THIS LADY!! PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE PLEASE!! I had the worse experience and I do not want anyone to go through what I went. Let me Explain my experience and let this be the review you need to not go here. I reach out to her on 5/15/25 she was very responsive to my calls and gave me an appt right away! I attented my first consultation with my MOH and Beatrice had us write all the things that my dress needed the total came to $1575 and at that time i did not know if that was an okay price but i went for it because I wanted someone local I proceeded and gave her $600 cash deposit as she really preferred that over check or card. We schedule my second appt we showed that day and she never opened the door for us i called her 3 times and texted her and she saw my messages an 1 hour later but did not bother to apologize for wasting our time. I had to text her to ask her if everything was okay because I showed up for my fitting and she never opened the door and she stated that she was okay but when i was going to show up for my fitting? I was confuse because two days before i called her and texted her. Anyways I assune maybe she did not see my missed calls. I proceeded to schedule another appt this time she apologize for the mix up and she told me all the things she was going to do to my dress then at the end she wanted another payment and i gave her $400 cash since she had worked on some things. On 6/20/25 I went again with my MOH and i did not see any changes but i did tell her how my custom slevees will looked and she said she does not design them she just sews them so my MOH design them with the fabric given by her and pin everything but today 6/22/25 she told me she had an emergency and she has to leave and won't be able to finish I was left speechless because my wedding is in a month i asked her what about my sleeves and she says she cannot do the sleeves because its too detail and tried to change the work order around but why didnt she mention on 6/20 she could not do the job? What's more shocking is that she mention my sleeves were going to rip off anyways becauze of the fabric she was going to use!!! Like you are charging me $400 and you knew you weren't giving me quality!! I explain to her that i understand that she has an emergency , but i expect a refund for the sleeves she did not complete and she refuse to reinburse me because according to her she completed the job... I kid you not this lady cut a piece of fabric and gave it to my MOH to create the sleeves with safety pins and the "sleeves" were the same way we left them and she said she sewed them together and did her job. I told her I was not going to pay her any more money because she had rip me off and she threatend me to not give me my dress or to call the police or worse sue me? I stated to her that i was willing to pay her for all the work she did so we agreed to pay her $200 more but that was me being nice because she did not live up to her word. Then after she received the $200 cash she says that i still owe her money because the total is $1750!! I explain to her 4 times that the total on the receipt was $1575 however she insisted At the end she told me that i needed to leave her house and she shut the door on me. Brides or anyone that goes with her please have a witness or record everything she says because she denies alot of things. I left her place with a huge headache, although she gave me my dress i am now in the urge for someone else to finish her job because she did a horrible!! The only thing she did was the bustle and cut 2 layers of my dress. I came home and the layers were cut so uneven! I just wanted to cry The veil she sold me was $275 and she did the pin while i was there in 10 mins and incorrectlly and she cut the veil so bad!! I should of seen the red flags!! I would suggest to not even call her she wants you to pay her all the money and won't finish the job! She demanded more money on the third fitting but i told her I could not give her more money until she finished and thank god I did because I would have lost more money. Ladies again, I repeat if i can save someone from making a bad decision let this be it I don't want anyone to go through what i did wedding planning is already stressful why make it more? read more

Had the most amazing consultation! Beatrice was so kind listened to all my concerns and really understood what I was envisioning. She was very confident she could achieve my dream dress alterations. I've done my research and was tired of being told oh you can't do this or that we have to do it this way. Not with Beatrice she listens to what you are wanting to alter takes in to consideration your concerns with my particular case it was all the beading on my dress. She was the first woman I met who actually responded to me confidently about altering my dress. I have no doubt it my mind my dress will be anything less than perfect! Can't wait for the final product! **UPDATE*** Happily married, and had the most amazing day ever! My dress was absolutely breathtaking and way beyond any expectations I could have dreamed up. Beatrice completely transformed my dream dress into my perfect fit. It literally fit me like a glove! And if my big day couldn't have already been more magical than I ever imagined her husband performed the most amazing ceremony ever! I couldn't have asked for more perfect words to be spoken on the most important day of my life! Thank you again for everything I truly feel blessed! read more

I brought my silk wedding dress to Beatrice and I am saddened to report that she inflicted irreparable damage to the dress. I had 3 separate fittings and consultations, and by the third I felt that the state of the dress was getting WORSE, not better, and it was giving me an uneasy feeling. I decided to take my dress to two different seamstresses who confirmed that there were 2 holes in the dress that could not be fixed, as well as holes from safety pins that could be not fixed. I didn't know at the time, but she should have never been using safety pins on a silk gown. I would proceed with caution before bringing complex alterations to Beatrice. read more

I came to Beatrice needing some significant alterations to my wedding dress and let me tell you, she has been nothing but an absolute delight to work with. Not only is she extremely talented at what she does, but the passion she has for the art and willingness to do whatever it takes to see a smile on my face is what differentiates her from any other tailor that I've ever worked with. My wedding dress is beaded from head to toe, which some tailors won't even touch, but Beatrice has managed to add darts, lower the back, take in both sides, add boning, and a bustle and it's STUNNING!! I couldn't be happier, and the best part of all is I made a new friend who I will continue to use for all of my alteration needs. Thank you, Beatrice, you're the BEST!! read more

Beatrice did an AMAZING job altering my dress! I ordered my dress online for my COVID micro wedding and it came in WAY too tight. I called Beatrice less than a month before my wedding and she was able to let out the dress and make it look absolutely perfect for my day. She saw me weekly for fittings at times that were convenient for me- she was incredible! Thank you Beatrice! read more

A month out from my wedding, I went to Beatrice. My first wedding dress had come in from Etsy and just looked absolutely terrible so she helped take my measurements so I could purchase a second one. The cost of my measurements was $50, but if I were to get my dress altered from her, it would be applied toward the alteration. When my 2nd dress came in, this time purchased through BHLDN, it was absolutely stunning but it had a lot of work that needed to be done. First, there was an excessive about of fabric on the bottom of the dress that needed to be hemmed. Second, I was losing weight so it needed to be taken in quite a bit. Third, because of the alterations, all of the beading needed to be delicately put back into place. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to shop around for a more affordable seamstress. Beatrice is expensive but she does great work, is really personable and available. The overall cost to have my dress altered was $800. My dress was a $600 dress, so after alterations it ended up being a $1400 dress. I had a DIY wedding that cost less than $10k, so we were able to splurge on making sure the dress was absolutely stunning and I believe it was completely worth it. If you have the time to shop around before your wedding, definitely do, but don't pick a place because of the price tag. Keep in mind the work that has to be done on your dress and make sure that whoever you choose does quality work. This is your day and you should look absolutely fabulous. read more

Beatrice was so friendly and easy to work with. My bridesmaid dress was way too long and just a bit tight. They were ordered from a small online boutique and no store to try them on. Beatrice and I discussed multiple options. She was upfront about cost for anything we talked about. We ended up going a middle option of adjusting the length and the top. Expanding the waist was just too much work and cost. I really appreciated our thorough consultation. I picked Beatrice's shop because of the very delicate material and all of her reviews around specializing in bridal materials and alterations. I knew it may be a bit pricier to go that route, but I was willing to pay a bit more to make sure it was a good fit. I couldn't have been happier with the results. The length was perfection, and the top adjustments made me so much more comfortable and confident in the dress. Thanks so much! Picture of myself and the bride added as well. :) read more

Beatrice SAVED my wedding dress! And not a moment to soon! I decided to wear my mother's wedding dress as a tribute to my sweet mom. I went to another dress shop to have the dress "modernized"-the idea was to have the 80's sleeves and neckline modified. Long story short, my mother's wedding dress was BOTCHED! I was heartbroken! I couldn't tell my mom, knowing it would upset her! This was supposed to be a very special bond for us. I got my dress back from the first woman who worked on it within only two weeks until my wedding. I found Beatrice online and called her in a panic. She got me in for an appointment THE DAY I called. She literally held me as I cried in my mother's dress. Beatrice works miracles!!!!! She completely reconstructed the bodice (added boning), redid the sleeves (I don't even know how as the lace was very delicate and intricate), fixed EVERY hem, EVERY stitch out of place, and fitted it to my body LIKE A GLOVE! She surprised me with a few extra finishes and I think she was almost more excited than I was by the end result! I got my dress the day we left for Oregon and I know she did a lot to squeeze me in for those two weeks. I felt like a princess on my wedding day! And to have Mama zip me up in the dress she wore when she married my dad 35 years was really special. I thought of Beatrice in that moment. I can never thank her enough for her dedication. Beatrice is basically a mad scientist (but brilliant) when it comes to dresses. She's zany and fun, and you can tell she is the absolute best at what she does by her attention to detail. Always confirm appointments with her. She is a busy lady. But she is sincere and passionate in her work. I wish I had known about her before I took my dress to anyone else. In the end, I paid Beatrice the exact same amount as what I paid the woman who botched my dress the first time. I felt her pricing was on point-especially with her level of expertise. If you are reading this review, save yourself the headache and call Beatrice! read more

Beatrice was the best to work with. I had an extremely delicate dress and Beatrice altered it flawlessly. I had ordered my dream dress from BHLDN and when it arrived it was too big and needed some altering. With about 4 months to go I contacted Beatrice after some extensive research which concluded she was one of the top options for brides with consistent results. After a consultation and 3 sessions my dress was perfectly tailored to my body. By my fourth visit my dream dress had come to life. The only down side for me was coming from downtown but I was able to schedule appointments around traffic which worked out great. I was a bride on a budget and Beatrice was up front about all charges, reasonably priced and was well worth the result. I would recommend Beatrice to every soon to be bride I know. read more

I mean... I can't with this family... just read the husband's unprofessional and rude reply. If anyone would like these texts, I can provide them. I shared them with my MOH and she was furious. Dodged a bullet, and a $100 consultation fee... I met with 5 other seamstresses and no one charged me that, and I found someone amazing. Feel free to contact me for her info too! Read all the 1 star reviews before you proceed, my claims are not alone. It's no longer a coincidence when it happens so often. Also - Mr. Husband, I did hear you and someone in the house doing something which is what peeved me even more. So I heard you, you didn't hear me or see me. read more

Beatrice accepted me super last minute after I texted her Monday evening begging for help for my dress I needed on Saturday. She came through and did all my alterations for such a reasonable cost. I can't believe I get to wear the dress of my dreams. Thank you so much Beatrice!! read more

I worked with Beatrice for a bridesmaid dress from David's Bridal that I was dreading. I had to size way up because the strapless dress's cups were not big enough for my 34FF chest. She took in everything perfectly and the dress was done on time and on budget! I got so many compliments and was so happy with the dress, I wore it to a gala. I'm working with her now on my wedding dress now and the process has been great. I was so worried about my dress-- again because of my chest size-- and she absolutely transformed it. I've been so self conscious and she spent the end of the appointment talking to me and bucking me up. She really took the time to listen to my concerns and I can't wait to see my dress at the next fitting. read more

Go to Beatrice if you want to get gouged. (This review is for the consult only) Beatrice was the first appointment I made to talk about wedding dress alterations. At the end of the appointment I felt like crying. She was going to charge me more than what I paid for my dress, and my dress was not cheap. She was manipulative and made me feel terrible and guilty that my alterations budget was "so low." She said I wouldn't be able to find anyone that would do a decent job with my dress and not ruin it for that price. I obviously decided not to go with Beatrice, and found another seamstress that altered my dress perfectly for me for a fraction of the price that Beatrice tried to charge. I believe it was 1/4th or 1/5th of Beatrice's ridiculous price. read more

Beatrice is amazing. I did my homework and made multiple calls before coming to her with my dress and alteration needs. She is a busy woman, and for good reason! She still made time for me to be incredibly kind, patient and thorough to discuss a plan for altering my dress to make it perfect for my big day. She has been very communicative, compromising and accommodating through every step of the process, and I see her as a true friend now while getting to know here through every step! I can't wait to get married to the love of my life, in this beautiful dress that fits me like a glove. I very highly recommend going to Beatrice!! If I could give 10 stars I would! A+++ read more

Beatrice does wonderful work! My dress was way to big for me (2-3 sizes too big!) and had to be taken in all over. She pretty much had to take it all apart and completely rebuild it. She did an amazing job! My dress went from hanging off of me everywhere to looking completely gorgeous and fitting me perfectly. Beatrice has been doing this for a long time and has many dresses/projects hanging in her studio. She is very good at what she does and she's also a joy to be around! read more

This review is based on my experience going through the quote process for my wedding dress alterations. After finding Beatrice via Yelp, I scheduled a consultation with her to come in, put the dress on and receive a quote. I called the morning of the consultation to confirm, and she had forgotten to write my appointment down, but promised to squeeze me in. My mother and met with her and were quoted an extremely high price for the alterations. Beatrice said she actually should charge us more, but she would cut us a deal. She suggested the dress would require nine fittings. While it seemed that Beatrice was very talented and had a track record of being trusted by her clients, and my dress is heavily beaded, we declined because of the sticker shock and decided to explore other options. Ultimately, I worked with another extremely well-reviewed shop to have the same set of alterations made with more efficient fittings at a price quote that was 25% what Beatrice was asking. In talking through the alterations process with this team, it became clear to me that if, in our protectiveness of the wedding dress, we had heeded Beatrice's warnings that it was very risky to take the dress anywhere less expensive, we would have ended up paying way more money than was needed. While I can't make a personal comment on Beatrice's skill as we did not move forward with her, I feel obligated to share my experience. In the wedding planning process that can be so overwhelming, I recommend taking time to consider your options and ensuring that prices you are being quoted are warranted. Ultimately, if you want extreme attention to detail, a very high number of fittings and don't have a strict budget, Beatrice might be the right person for you. read more

I highly recommend Beatrice for any alterations needed. She was really attentive, and spent over 2 hours with me for a consultation. She fixed my mother's veil into a new beautiful creation. I cannot thank her enough. read more

I found Beatrice by happenstance and it was a blessing! I had a wedding dress that I was absolutely in love with, but like most wedding dresses, didn't fit me correctly. Beatrice was fantastic from the very first visit. She made me feel comfortable, and most importantly did FANTASTIC work on my dress. She has an eye, it's truly a talent. She makes the dress fit your body perfectly, accentuating all the right curves and hiding all of the wrong ones. My dress was strapless so I was a bit worried about the "back fat" or "arm pit roll" that you get with a snug strapless.....I didn't have it! She also made a beautiful bustle, fixed the length, added boning, took off 7 inches AND when I got sick a week before the wedding and lost a few pounds, she took it in AGAIN. If you are looking for to have a special gown altered, I honestly wouldn't choose anyone else. You'd be silly....Good Work Beatrice and Thank you for making me look AMAZING on my special day :-) read more

Unbelievably unprofessional. I have no words. I came from out of town to support my sister in her preparation for her wedding. We showed up to the second dress fitting where Beatrice didn't even know we were coming and also didn't know my sisters name... We rescheduled for a few days later where it was clear she hadn't worked on the dress and didn't know what she was doing. She wanted final payment to release the dress. She promised boning around the bra area and to fix a strap. I was there to learn to bustle. My sister made a new appointment, paid her IN FULL And showed up the day before her flight to MA to get married. Dress WAS NOT READY. NO BONING and she is getting married next week. We are now scrounging to find another seamstress and have to finalize what she couldn't deliver. Many excuses for why it didn't get done. Then don't run a business. My poor sister is devastated. read more

-I bought my dress last year in March 2018 from a consignment store. It was a Maggie Sotterro dress that was a sample dress from a previous bridal shop that closed. I got a great deal on it but it was too big. I loved it anyway. I did my research for an alterations designer and came across Beatrice on the Knot and Wedding Wire. This lady can see and sew well! We have had multiple appointments over the last year and she has been so kind and her expertise was very knowledgeable. It's all about the timing of when you decide to get fitted, maintaining weight and shape for how you want to look in your dress and following Beatrice's advice. We have laughed and she has taken my suggestions in stride. She even made a custom veil out of lace from my dress and its gorgeous! More pictures to come. My wedding is tomorrow and I am picking up my dress as we speak. Beatrice, you are amazing and I appreciate every minute you spent with me. So professional and precise. Thank you, Leah F. read more

My experience with Beatrice was nothing short of amazing!! I was less than a month out from my destination wedding. I called and was able to be fitted into a last minute appointment, for the already back to back bookings. I felt very welcome and my worries were immediately put at ease. I had 2 1/2 fittings, with alterations that exceeded even the vision I had. Above all, I felt a loving spiritual connection that is hard to come by! Thank you, to this beautiful soul, with talent bigger than Texas! God bless. read more

I would highly recommend Beatrice. She is extremely nice and welcoming. She pays close attention to detail and explains everything. I ordered a size bigger in my wedding dress, due to my hips and she was able to take in the rest and transform my dress into this amazing form fitting, booty popping dress. Love her! read more

This review is a bit delayed and I have mixed feelings about writing it. I used Beatrice's services in 2011 for a rather in depth alteration of a vintage wedding dress that was several sizes too large. I had 5-6 appointments over the course of as many months, and as others have commented, she was quite scattered and I never really new what to expect in terms of her state. She talked a lot about other dresses/brides, seemed to have taken on more than she could manage by herself, and there was always this strange undertone that I should be grateful that she made time for me. It was interesting to say the least. The above eccentricities could have been overlooked had she delivered with my wedding dress, but sadly she did not. Since the final fitting didn't include walking around in the dress, or sitting, I was unable to see that the internal slip layer was completely misaligned and on my wedding day it showed itself pretty quickly with all of the walking I did during our photo shoot. In all of my photos, my dress looks completely wrinkled around my waste line and in the pictures that show the dress from behind. the seam and bustle is clearly pulling to the left by about 3-4 inches. I spent $1000 for the alterations and certainly don't feel the quality of the work I received came anywhere close to being commensurate to that price. Honestly, I'm not sure how I would have handled it if I had discovered the problems before my actual wedding. Unfortunately, she didn't have my dress finished until 2 days before I left for my destination wedding, so there would have been little time to get things right, but after all of the trash talking she did about other "demanding" customers, I certainly don't believe she would have worked with me to solve the problem under such a tight timeline. read more

Beatrice is AMAZING at what she does. Long story short, I had a custom made, very expensive wedding dress, that when it arrived, was entirely a poor fit. The torso was too short, the back was too high, etc. It was a nightmare. Beatrice was able to work with the store and designer from which I ordered my dress in order to get more fabric so that she could work her magic. Beatrice worked with me almost right up until the day of the wedding to make sure the dress was perfect. My dress had so many details and a corset on the inside. Beatrice was able to make it perfect. She was also able to open up the back of the dress, as I really wanted a deeper back. Without Beatrice, I would've been disappointed with how my dress looked. Beatrice always made me feel like a beautiful princess when I was in her studio. I owe her a million thanks for making my dream dress a reality! PS- Her husband is also a sweetheart and was able to deliver my dress to the hotel on my wedding day. read more

My review in on the consultation. I did not move forward with Beatrice for alterations. As noted in other reviews scheduling is not Beatrice's strong suit. In an effort to proactively manage this I confirmed my appointment with Beatrice several times and in multiple written communication. Via text, phone and outlook appointment. When I arrived she was with another client. I waited a half hour before Beatrice took me in for my appointment. She proceeded by telling me my appointment was a half hour later and essentially arguing with me. When she looked at her notes and saw I was right she said "well I'm flexible I hope you're flexible". Annoying way to start an appointment. She had me pay upfront for the appointment. Which I thought was odd. I got into my dress and she counted the layers and gave be a quote to hem the dress. I thanked her for her time and said it was so far out of my budget that I would not be moving forward. This is the kicker!!!! She then took pictures of me in my dress!!!!! I was furious, I didn't use her as a seamstress and she certainly should not be using pictures of me for who knows what. If you are comfortable with scattered and rude she is the seamstress for you. On a side note, I find it odd she has over 30 not recommended positive reviews. read more

I used Beatrice to make my wedding veil. I brought my dress in because I wanted her to get an idea of what kind of veil we should make, and I also thought there was a slight chance I might need to get it altered. She knew exactly what kind of veil would go with the dress, and it was just as I had envisioned. I tried my dress on for her, and she said it didn't need any alterations. She didn't charge me for that at all. She had the veil complete within a couple of weeks or less, and the price was much lower than if I had purchased a veil elsewhere. I highly recommend her services. She was very professional and efficient. read more

My experience with Alterations and Veils by Beatrice ended in tears and my buying a new wedding dress only a few weeks before my wedding because she ruined the beautiful gown that I loved before bringing it to her. Beatrice not only price gouges and charges an obscene amount for sub-par work, she is rude, insulting, and extremely unprofessional. I am so disappointed that I ever sought out her services. Please be warned- if your experience is like mine was, you will regret it. read more

I received my wedding dress 2 weeks before my wedding from my grandmother, who had insisted on altering it for me - and it was completely ruined. It was cut too short, it didn't fit at all in the bust, the lace was pinned on wrong, and there were pins still in it! I cried for about 5 hours, then by some miracle, found Beatrice. She not only agreed to fix my dress in time for the wedding, she also made time to fit in 3 fittings with me! She is a true perfectionist and is the only person I would ever trust again with such an expensive gown. She made sure I was 100% happy, giving me everything I asked for and more. By the end, the dress fit better than I could have ever imagined - it looked like it was made for me! She spent hours with me, making sure everything was perfect. Take my advice - this is the most important dress you will ever wear in your life. Don't trust anyone to alter it except Beatrice. She is the only person who will make sure that the alterations are done correctly. She doesn't do short-cuts and she won't stop working on it until it's perfect. Thank you, Beatrice! read more

I used Beatrice for my alterations on my wedding dress. I had no idea what to expect walking into her house, but boy was she so friendly! I think we started the alternations in September/October of 2009 and my wedding was March 6, 2010. We met over 5 times and she was amazing. The work Beatrice did on my dress was wonderful. She tells you exactly what fits your body and how she is going to alter your dress. This woman is busy and made me feel like I was her only client. We had to reschedule a few times, but it wasn't a problem...once it was my fault and another she had a family emergency. I would highly suggest her to anyone who is very meticulous about anything and wants perfection! I'll post my before and after pictures...incredible! I did spend a little more than I wanted, but it was all worth it when I could dance, move, eat, breath, and was VERY comfortable in my wedding dress. It was perfect!! read more

I was beyond happy with my experience with Beatrice for the alterations of my wedding dress! I brought my dress to her in January for my May wedding with a lot of work to be done. She is extremely knowledgable with wedding dress fabrics and all aspects of alterations. She lowered the neckline, lowered the back to a V, took in the bust, sides, waist, and hips, and added the bustle. We discussed my alteration needs and wants on the first visit where she provided me with a quote for her services. I liked this method rather than being surprised at the end with a new or higher price. We spaced my fittings out so that I would pick up my dress just under 3 weeks before my wedding date. At each fitting, I loved my dress more and more. The more she worked on my dress the more it began to fit like a glove! In addition to being an extremely talented and knowledgable tailor, she is so sweet and very professional! I needed to reschedule a couple of fittings due to my work schedule and she was pleasantly accommodating. Your wedding dress is probably the most important garment you will ever wear - I highly recommend Alterations by Beatrice to alter any wedding dress! Her work is fantastic! I am so happy I had such a wonderful experience with Beatrice who essentially gave me the most beautiful wedding dress!! read more
