I cannot thank Only One Tailoring ENOUGH for saving the day for me! I bought a dress online from…read moreanother company in two different sizes just in case one didn't fit. I waited 3 months for it. It was my Dream Dress! When I got it and put them on both didn't fit, while one was close. I used to be extremely overweight so I've never owned something this beautiful. My heart dropped when it wouldnt zip up. I blindfolded my Fiancé so he could help me zip it up since all my friends dont live in TN. That Night I called 4 "commercial" bridal shops. Every single one said there was nothing they could do since my Wedding was a mere 32 days away. I felt all hope was lost. The next day I gave Only One Tailoring a call-HOPING they could help. I told them my dress was VERY close to fitting. They were gracious enough to get me in the next day, less than 24 hours from my phone call. Im not going to lie. I had no hope. Im on a strict budget and I know altering the dress would be twice what I paid for my gown. As soon as I walked in, the ladies were sooo inviting and welcoming. I was put in a room to try my dress on and walk out so my dress could be inspected. As soon as I walked our, my Tailor said, "Oh great you got the Zipper up!" I was like..No I wish lol. She advised me the dress is super close to closing and it just needed a second hand and womena touch. She grabbed an associate and 1,2,3 it was zipped up. I almost CRIED! I still couldn't breathe lol. But a simple couple pounds will be fine. She asked if I wanted any additional alterations. I am a big chested girl and the cups were big. She immediately tightened my straps and hellllo boobs..she was beautiful. I did ask how much it would be to get the front hemmed a little and it was out of my range. But some heels will fix that! I DID ask how much to open up the dress a little and rush service. It was over my budget since my dress wasnt that expensive. She told me a simple claw hook and an extra set of hands would work. She quoted me $14 and I said let's do it! I told her I can pick it up whenever since I had to head to work. She informed me she was going to do it right then and there, to sit tight and it would be 15 minutes. It was less than 15 minutes and POOF my Wedding Dress nightmare was fixed! I left a fat tip and thanked her so much. I didnt have a chance to try on a wedding dress, with a whole crew, and see it in a big mirror. I CRIED. I loved my dress even more. I will NOT stop PRAISING Only One Tailoring! They saved the day for this Bride! I hardly write reviews but if I could give 10 stars I would! I will be praising them all over Social Media, including my Mother and Fiancé. Thank you sooo soooo much! You really dont know how much I appreciate Only One Tailoring! [Will insert Wedding dress Photos when the Day comes]

I'm sure many of us have that pile of clothes that you are meaning to mend - this is the place you…read moretake them!! I have taking Only One Tailoring both hemming and mending and all experiences have been great. The prices are reasonable, the timelines are clearly communicated, and there are reminders to get your things. When you pick them up, you get an opportunity to try on everything first to make sure everything is correct! I will continue to take them all my mending!

Jessica is very personable and professional. I didn't end up pursuing work with her quote but…read morewanted to sing her praises about the quote process. I will keep her in mind for future projects. Clearly she's running a great business because she's booked out for several months, so my advice is to ask for your quote at least 6 months in advance of when you need the item. Jessica is very transparent about pricing and timelines. User-friendly software clearly displays the total line-by-line, and the total aligns well with other similar quotes I received. Jessica charges fitting fees to compensate for her time so that you can cross alterations asks off your list and bring down your total if you're happy with initial or minor changes. She is budget-conscious and wants to give you the best result for the lowest price. Jessica has a philosophy that she doesn't make decisions about your alterations but rather equips you with information for you to decide what aligns with your priorities. Jessica seems conscious and supportive of all body types and levels of modesty, for example when she explained options for potential bust cup alterations. Jessica helped me understand the alterations industry more broadly, including common pitfalls and bustle types. She gave business-related tips like getting quotes in writing and understanding fitting fees/guarantees for exclusive work prior to going to a business. Her personal choice is to vet clients over the phone first to ensure a good fit prior to bringing your garment to her. Others may have you in for a fitting before quoting or exchange just over email. I learned so much from her over one phone call and loved her genuine communication style. I initially got her name from a local seamstress based on the type of garment I had. I'm not surprised Jessica has a great local reputation among peers in the Nashville area!

Semra assured me that she would have it done in time. Not only was it ready in just 5 days, it also fit me perfectly. I cannot thank her enough. The best tailor in Nashville!

As you can see there are some mixed reviews. The negative reviews are mainly price-based and/or…read morecustomer service-based. Personally, I go to a tailor for their quality/craftsmanship. And Semra has plenty of this. I have been to her twice for three items. One was an uncomplicated hemming and was on the more expensive side, but she had it done in 2-3 hours. The other was a complicated hemming and cuffing of pants and complicated work on an overcoat. The job was down within a week and was absolutely reasonably priced. The work was flawless. Basically, if you are coming to her to sew on a button, it's going to be on the expensive side. If you come to her for complicated work, she is going to do a great job, for a great price, for a reasonable price. Also, for what it's worth, she has always been very pleasant and nice with me!
