So you're looking for a tailor for your wedding or wedding-adjacent events and don't know where to go? Trust me. This is IT. I'm a bit of a perfectionist with extremely high standards, so I went into this very critical -- I knew exactly what I wanted. I had a nightmare trying to find a dress for my bridal shower (I'm plus sized, much wider on the bottom than the top, so I had to size up and was terrified it would never look right). The tailor here is phenomenal. She knew exactly how to cut and fit it so the pattern stayed perfect and the length was super flattering. She completely transformed the dress to look like it was made just for me. Yes, she's expensive, but absolutely worth it -- she's an expert, and I'd follow this woman into war! read more

I was so happy with how my dress turned out during my wedding. I bought my dress at one of the main dress distributers in Manhattan but had heard horrible things about their alteration department. So as soon as I got my dress, I went hunting online and found Wonhee. She is extremely patient and nice and obviously knows what she is doing. We brought her not only my wedding dress but a reception dress as well as my mother's dress. She recommended that she change the buttons on the back as they were too flimsy and gave me a beautiful bustle and altered straps. My mother and I were worried that it was too tight but she knew what she was doing because in the end it looked beautiful and fitted and didn't put too much pressure on the delicate straps to hold the dress up. She brings her expertise and makes recommendations that would never even come into my mind. For that, i am extremely thankful for her guidance and how she put our minds at ease. I've included the back of the dress to show how beautiful she made it! Thank you! read more

This shop is run by an expert. The owner of this place has really sharp eyes--she recommended additional alterations to my dress that I was not even thinking about, and I am so glad I followed her recommendations. 1 week turnaround. If you are looking for a shop to alter your wedding dress, look no further. read more

I was in a rush to get my dress done (I was holding off due to covid and not knowing if the wedding was happening), they were able to get my dress to fit in ONE WEEK. I don't know how she did it but I'm so grateful, it looked great. read more

Wonnee is the best! I brought her a dress from davids bridal, which I thought fit me well although it was somewhat snug in my hips. The davids bridal people told me I just needed to a hem and the sleeves shortened. Wonnee has an expert eye and immediately saw that the torso of the dress was too long for me and the waist of the dress was falling on my hips which is why it was snug there. The people at davids bridal didn't mention that at all! Once she adjusted the torso to raise the waist of the dress, the dress was actually loose on me and had to get taken in a few sizes. You could tell she's had so much experience with wedding dresses and knows the correct way to fix whatever issue you might have. To top it all off, the week of my wedding I had lost some weight and my dress was loose- I was panicking but she took it in one last time for me days before the wedding to make sure I looked perfect. You can tell that she takes great pride in her work, and she was always available when I called the store. I'm so happy with how my dress looked and so glad I trusted wonnee with it! read more

I fell in love with a wedding dress that I knew would need a lot of alterations- the vneck was too deep, it was too sheer, etc etc. Needless to say I felt pretty anxious about the alteration process and what could be done to make it what I needed.. and wondered whether I would even like my dress still after all the changes.. From the start, For My Wedding was such a lifesaver. She knew exactly what my concerns about my dress were and provided constructive help without pushing anything on me. She fit the alterations into my somewhat tight timeline and communicated with me through every step of the process. Just picked up my dress today and I LOVE IT. It is perfect and you can't even tell that it was heavily altered from its' original design. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't still nervous leading up to this appointment, but she worked her magic. I'm so grateful & highly recommend For My Wedding for all future brides!!!!! read more

I had a delightful experience in 'for my wedding' bridal salon. I brought an old showroom piece and Wonnie's magical hands turned it into a great wedding gown. She was very professional. She keeps up her schedule and promises. She helped me put on my dress. Suggested the right corset for my body structure. She helped me to wear it every time. She fixed the hooks, bustle, repaired all the loose embellishments - the dress looked as good as new. She never missed any of the things I requested her to alter. She listened to all my requests and created a masterpiece out of an old dress. The price was very reasonable and economical. Overall a 10/10 experience. read more

I got my wedding dress from For my wedding and it was so wonderful to work with the staffs here. They were very professional, and just made the whole wedding process stress free!!! The dress came out beautiful and we only had 4 months to make the pattern, the bottom half of the dress and make alterations on it....she took care of all and I was just there for the fitting. I trust them completely with my dress and I know that I made a good decision because the dress came out exactly what I wanted....sooo many people complimented me on how beautiful the dress was and wanted to know where they can get it~ thank u guys!!! read more

For My Wedding - A very large selection of bridesmaid dresses AND wedding dresses (on the other side of the store)! - Bridal Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

Had my wedding dress (which I purchased online) altered at the shop and couldn't be happier with the outcome. The dress was basically too big and too long and it had to be fit into my petit frame. Wonee was always pleasant and amazing. Gave me great advices and feedback on the dress. In addition, I purchased a vail from her which matched my dress perfectly. We order it and it came less than a week time. I had to wait few months between some appointments because of family stuff and they were very accommodating and didn't rush me to pick up my dress. Overall we did few appointments to make sure my dress was perfect. Amazing work! read more

TL;DR Amazing service and perfect alterations! I bought my dress at David's Bridal and immediately started looking for a different place to do alterations since I didn't really trust DB with it. I found For My Wedding after lots of searching and I'm so glad I came here. The shop is run by a lovely couple who were courteous and friendly during every visit. They always made sure I was comfortable and were so helpful. They clearly explained what was going to be altered, why, and when it would be completed by. I had an extremely detailed dress with lots of lace all over it so it was a huge job for them since I needed a ton of alterations (shortened the length, overall size needed to be smaller, plus added bustles). I had my concerns since my dress had so many details, but they did a perfect job on it and I was really impressed. The store itself is clean and well-lit. Pretty spacious too. It has a nice seating area for mothers of the bride right by the dressing room. I'm not the typical bride that really enjoys a lot of attention and the whole "trying on dresses in front of people" ordeal, but the folks at For My Wedding made me love the entire (alterations) experience. read more

I rarely leave reviews but felt compelled to leave one for this amazing store. I brought my wedding dress about a month before the big day, and I went in not knowing what to expect. I only went by what the other reviewers had mentioned from yelp. I went in for only 2 fittings, and at my last fitting the dress fit like a glove. She has a way with altering the dress so that it fits you perfectly. I will from this point on bring in any dress that I need alterations done on. She made my dream come true by giving me the confidence to know that I would look just like how I wanted to look like for my big day!!! Thank you so much!!! read more

They are awesome! Both husband and wife are expert in alterations. Been in business for 20 years. Also, reasonable pricing . I'm happy with my alterations. read more

If you are still searching for the perfect bridal boutique, look no further. Initially, my mother and I went to Kleinfeld's in New York City, believing the hype and thinking we would be remiss not to visit "the best bridal boutique in the world." I nearly bought a $5,000 gown but after very pushy sales service and some second thoughts on whether it was the right dress for me, it just didn't feel right. So I started exploring other options. I called DOZENS of stores searching for a particular gown from Morilee By Madeline Gardner and For My Wedding was the ONLY boutique in New Jersey that had it, which led me to make the trip. And I'm so glad I did! To start, Wonnie has impeccable taste in wedding dresses and wedding accessories. She is knowledgeable and passionate about design and simply knows her stuff. But beyond that, she was super sweet, compassionate, and overall a wonderful person with a big heart. Searching for the dress to wear on your special day is stressful, and that's the kind of person you want in your corner. From the moment I walked in, she took care of me and gave me 1:1 personal attention the entire time I was in the boutique. The dress was everything I dreamed and more, so I made the purchase. When I called back 6 months later to see if it was on track for delivery, I didn't even have to provide my name. She remembered me right away! She called back diligently with shipping updates and when it arrived, I couldn't wait to go back and enlist her help in finding a veil, too! I really trusted her and she is a great listener. She found me a dream veil to match and even after I mentioned not doing the alterations at For My Wedding (due to my recent move almost 2 hours away), she was incredibly sweet and gave me quality, moulded cups for my seamstress to sew in at no charge! Just the sweetest. Bottom Line: Does this place have the hype of Kleinfeld's? No - but to me, that's a good thing. You will experience what incredible customer service is actually supposed to be by going here. And the selection of affordable gowns (that look expensive!) will delight you. You won't regret making the trip. read more

For My Wedding was amazing!! After going to several wedding dress shops with no luck, I am across this one. At other stores, I felt so uncomfortable with the dresses I tried on (too bulky or heavy). The dresses here were all were comfortable to wear and walk in...it was just a matter of me picking the one I liked. The owner was so friendly and helped me find the perfect dress in my budget. She really cared that I find my perfect dress and made me feel so special throughout the whole process from looking for the dress to all the fittings. On my wedding day, I got SO MANY compliments on my dress. I would definitely recommend this store to anyone!!!! read more

Wonee was a sweetheart to work with and I highly recommend For My Wedding for at least alterations/cleaning. I bought my wedding dress at another boutique, but I brought my dress to For My Wedding to get hemmed, as well as to add a bustle. I had read great reviews on yelp, and felt like I could trust Wonee with my dress. I was right! She did an amazing job! My personal schedule was also very difficult in regards to fittings and pick-up times, but Wonee was always flexible and accommodating. The pricing was also much more reasonable, compared to the ridiculous price that was being asked of me in the city for just a hemming. read more

First off let me start by saying both of the owners are SO very sweet! I am a MOH in my sisters wedding and we did not get our dresses there (regretfully) but a week before the wedding I went to try my dress on and it ripped!! HOLY NIGHTMARE!! Instead of dragging my dress the 45 minute drive I took to get the dress I remembered For My Wedding is literally 5 minutes from my house so I took it there crossing my fingers and toes they could help me with just a week left. I went in all stressed out and ready to freak out but let me tell you she made me feel SO much better. She calmed me down and convinced me that everything would be okay and told me to come back in 3 days. I went back and the dress was PERFECT! It finally fit like a glove! I was so happy and so impressed by their work. Their price was reasonable and they seriously did an amazing job. I had to go back a second time just so she could fix the length as well since the first bridal store faired to recommend me shortening it so I did not trip. I am so glad she convinced me to cut it. The dress looks absolutely amazing and I cannot wait to wear it this weekend thanks to them! I would absolutely recommend this place to anybody who asks. I am already married but hoping to renew my vows in 5 years so they better still be around when it's my turn to pick a gown again :) read more

Wonee was a lifesaver! I came in panicked, as the back of my bridesmaid dress wasn't closing from the back. The dress was very complicated: it had a sheer back with little buttons going down the middle. She was able to completely deconstruct the back of the dress and create basically a new dress using the extra fabric I bought from the designer. I have a rather short torso and she was able to use the lining from underneath the dress. She added cups since I'm a little on the bustier side which fit great. She noticed the buttons were manufactured poorly and she was happy to make them tighter for me. Wonee was a true professional and miracle worker. I don't know what I would have done without her! read more

I am extremely grateful to Wonee and her husband for helping me find my wedding dress after going to countless stores and starting to feel tired from trying on so many dresses. Wonee listened to what I was looking for and helped me find my dress and customize it with the designer. Wonee is like your korean auntie looking out for you and making sure you look your best. Wonee was very patient with my mother and even helped her get a dress for the big day there, with alterations! Price is reasonable and she definitely looks out for her customers! read more

I've been coming to Winnie at For My Wedding for years. My first experience with her was amazing. I bought my wedding dress from her boutique and she completely altered and revamped the whole dress to my liking. Her work is flawless, so much that I referred my best friend and sister-in-laws to her and they all bought their dresses and had alterations done by her. She's so easy to work with and is always on time. I live an hour away from her but still get all my major gowns fitted and altered by her. I'm currently getting my maid-of-honor dress altered by her now. She has a great selection of dresses to choose from as well and her prices are very reasonable and fair. Definitely recommend! read more

After I had gone to a well known bridal salon and left with nothing, a coworker of mine said I had to visit For My Wedding. When I got there, I had the whole store to myself. Wonee listened to what I was looking for and carefully picked out about 6 dresses within my price range. I honestly loved them all and could have bought any one of them. Once I bought my dress, Wonee was in contact with me when it arrived and I scheduled my fittings. She made me feel extremely comfortable at each fitting and had patience with me when I needed an additional fitting because of a change in my weight. She truly knows what she is doing and is dedicated to making sure the dress fits you like a glove. By the end, I was sad that my journey was over with her as she was one of my favorite vendors to work with. read more

I went here because my sister got her wedding dress here and loved it. The owners are amazing and cater to your every need. I wanted to alter my dress in many ways and they were so accommodating.

You'll find beautiful dresses at a fraction of the price! read more

This place is the worst. Their selection is horrible. I placed an order with them and received the dress in the wrong length. The person I was dealing with (Wonnie, who also placed my order) failed to even mention to me that the dress was sent in the wrong length (was she hoping I wouldn't remember?) Then had the nerve to tell me she would do me the FAVOR of hemming the dress at no charge. I proceeded to ask for compensation and mad her aware that doing the hem was by no means a favor but a correction of her mistake.....which she has yet to acknowledge. I asked for $15 to be taken off my balance.....she said she could only do $10!!! YES SHE FOUGHT WITH ME OVER $5, even when I drew to her attention that this $5 would make her customer feel a little better & maybe prevent bad reviews and a call to the BBB!!!! Her next offer was to send the dress back to the vendor, and have it shipped to me (in other words.....please just go away). Then she would not give me anything to document that she agreed to do a free hem, and take the measly $10 off due to THEIR ERROR......by stating "how did she know I was really the person who bought the dress because I didn't have my receipt with me"....I offered her ID (haha) then she proceeded to scribble it on a business card. I've never experienced such poor customer service. I will never...ever make a purchase there again. Believe me I understand mistakes happen, and would have totally been understanding had she apologized and offered to compensate me in addition to fixing the problem rather than making it as if she were doing me a favor. I wish I had the time to get my dress elsewhere because I would demand a refund due to receiving the incorrect dress and leave it for them to deal with. In addition, communication is horrendous. Do yourself a favor.....don't go here. There are plenty of other bridal shops in the area. read more

This is my wife's review: This review is for "For My Wedding" and my experience fell nothing short of amazing. Winnie and her husband are professional and great at what they do. I tried on a few dresses and found the "one". I never felt rushed and always comfortable. Winnie was so nice and helpful throughout the whole process and I know I wasn't the easiest person to work with. She went above and beyond at the last minute and did so much work on the dress to my liking and it came out wonderful. The alterations came out beautifully. She knew I was concerned about a few things on the dress a week before the wedding and was able to make changes only a few days before to make the dress fit perfectly. She has a magic wand. I can't express my gratitude for her and the boutique enough. Thank you for making my wedding dress PERFECT!! read more

I brought my wedding dress in for major alterations that I had purchased at another store in CA. Not being from the area, I searched for this store online. I was very nervous about getting it altered because my dress was fully beaded. They did a great job and in a pretty short amount of time. I had multiple fittings and each time, the dress looked better and better. I would highly recommend using For My Wedding for any alterations, especially if your dress takes skill to alter! read more

Wedding dress was more than a month late. The dress was done in a completely different fabric than agreed upon and this change was not discussed with me at all. Once I tried on the dress, the skirt was sewn very asymmetric. The owners blamed me for changing the original design instead of taking accountability for the poor job done. I changed the original design because she had nothing I liked when I visited her showroom. She offered to change the design to my liking in order to make the sale to begin with otherwise I would have walked out of her shop without buying a dress. She made promises she did not keep and blamed me for it on top of it. She charged me 300 for tailoring to fix the terrible sewing done and rushed the actually fitting. I walked out of there in tears. She tried very hard to make me feel better but the dress is still messed up and there's nothing I can do about it now. read more

I bought my dress at a different boutique and brought my dress here because of the great reviews. My dress was rather difficult to alter but they did such a great job! They had to remove the lace before shortening the dress. They also had to take in the waist and shorten the straps which were tulle with lace on it. Everything came out to perfection! I had also gotten a second dress closer to the wedding date and brought it in. I got it at a sample sale so it was completely not my size. For My Wedding altered it without any problems and it came out exactly as I had hoped. The owners are so pleasant to work with! I highly recommend them! read more

This was the only location that had the dress that I wanted to try on in the color I was looking for. The lady was very nice and I bought it. They promised to add straps and fix the beading, but she never called me to come in to measure the straps until I called to find out that she couldn't do the straps. When I went to pick up the dress the beadings were hanging and it had a rip in the skirt. When I showed her the tear in the dress she blamed me for stepping on it which never happened. It was unbelievable because even if I did she should have fixed it before handing it to me instead of blaming me. It really shocked me that she was just going to give me my dress with a hole in it. Beware that they will be so nice to you at beginning and promise everything you ask for and will not follow up with you unless you are on her back about your item. read more

Wonnie saved my wedding dress! I strongly recommend her if you are looking for alterations. I brought my dress from David's Bridal and it was a nightmare. First dress arrived with a stain, and the second one felt two sizes too small (even though it was the same size I had tried on and I had not gained weight). I then exchanged it for a larger size and I was swimming in it. I finally took it to Wonnie and she not only resized it for me, she fixed the bodice as it was lopsided (I've been told this is an issue with many dresses from David's). She also added a bustle and was very patient when she had to take it in one more time before the wedding since I lost some last minute weight. She is so kind and has great pride in her work. read more

Wonnie is a life saver! Original seamstress butchered my dress and For My Wedding is in the works fixing it to perfection ! So professional and knowledgable ! read more

I went to RK Bridal 3 times because my sister got her wedding dress there but I found that they were very difficult to work with and provided little guidance. I got frustrated and googled wedding shops near me. I came across "For My Wedding" and read all of the wonderful reviews. I called them at 4 PM and booked me for 6:30 PM that evening. I went in and Wonnee helped me find my dress right away. It was completely different from any style that I thought I wanted but I fell in love with it. Wonnee and her husband are a wonderful team and it's been an absolute pleasure working with them. I am SO happy with my dress and I can't wait to wear it in a few weeks!! They also helped me decide on jewelry and provided helpful advice for the wedding. I can't recommend them enough!! read more

Wonee and her husband are a bride's dream come true! Their candid advice and creativity are top notch and they only want the best for their brides and their families. She's always on point and adds reassurance and a calming approach to a what could be an overwhelming experience. Think no further and go with Wonee, she's the absolute best! read more

I ordered my MOH dress here through Wonee and she was such a pleasure to work with! I was on a tight timeline and she came in early to fit me and make sure the dress fit perfectly. I lost a lot of weight and they had to take the dress in 3 sizes and it looks perfect! Would highly recommend coming here!! read more

I had a great experience having my wedding dress tailored at For My Wedding. I live in Cliffside Park and have been passing the store front for years. They always have such beautiful and unique gowns in the window. When I got engaged I knew I wanted to get my dress here. Unfortunately, after trying on many dresses, I did not find "the one" here. They were very patient with me and really wanted me to find something that I loved. I ended up finding a sample dress at Helen Bohn's in Washington Township. It was closing at the time so I was able to get it for a really great deal. I decided to have it tailored at For My Wedding since I had such a positive experience there. The dress was too big around the waist area. It was a difficult fix since the dress had a built in corset. They were able to adjust the waist to my size perfectly. I noticed there were several flaws in the dress. You could see some of the boning through the spots between the lace. They were able to cover these spots flawlessly by taking pieces from the bottom of the dress where the lace was hidden. Most impressively, I wanted to have a bridal belt sewn into the dress. I bought a beautiful appliqué on ribbon on etsy. When we put the ribbon next to the dress it turned out the ribbon color did not match. They carefully removed the appliqué from the ribbon (which had been glued on) and were able to sew it into my gown. It looked like it was always part of the dress. They also fixed any flaws the dress had so there was no knowing it was a sample dress. The dress looked and fit perfectly. I got so many compliments at the wedding day about the dress, especially how well the bridal belt looked attached to the dress. The bustle was easy to do and looked fantastic. I highly recommend getting any important tailoring done here. They were so kind and welcoming for every fitting and they got the job done with no problems or stress. They were excellent in communicating how to care for the dress and how to transport it. Without question, I would return to them for future tailoring. read more

Could not be so happy with the service I received. Just like most brides I went and tried on dresses in Kleinfelds, fell in love with the first dress I tried on. When it was time to purchase the dress no one at Kleinfelds would return my emails or phone calls. Frantically, (less that 6 months to the wedding) I called For My Wedding. The dress was much cheaper with alterations included. Service... Ohh boy, could not believe how great it was, the owners were sweet and oh so helpful. Made every step of my experience there a very pleasant one. Thank you so much. read more

I went in for alterations on a bridesmaid dress and couldn't have been happier with the whole process. Despite the short window of time to the wedding, the resulting dress was perfectly hemmed, altered, steamed- the whole deal. The staff were beyond friendly and the professional/knowledgeable way everything was handled- I was immediately put at ease about the dress. For those who are searching for a trustworthy/experienced alteration/bridal gown/etc source, For My Wedding is definitely the place. read more

This place is the best! My sister got her moh dress here and I brought my wedding gown here after a botched job at another alteration place. They gave me weekly fittings and fixed my dress to perfection! I highly recommend FMW for all your gown and alteration needs! read more

I came here to get my wedding dress altered. I had bought it in a sample store and I thought it fit pretty well except for some gaping at the neck, but when I wore it for the owner here she pointed out SO MANY details that I had missed - bunching at the torso, an uneven hem, sleeves too wide for my shoulders, loose beads, etc. She has a really great eye!! They fixed all of these issues over the course of about six weeks & several fittings and for a VERY reasonable price. I'm definitely going to go back for all my future alterations read more
