The dress fit perfectly afterward and they completed it within a week, earlier than the pickup date I had asked for. The main issue for me was the organization during pickup. I received a text saying my dress was ready, but when I arrived they brought out a completely different piece of clothing even after I clearly described my dress. Turns out they had mixed up the name tags between my dress and someone else's. I ended up going to the back with them and immediately spotted my dress myself. I pointed it out and they asked if I was sure it was mine, which was a little strange. Then they asked me to try it on. At first I thought they just wanted to confirm the alterations looked right, but it turned out they wanted to see if it fit me to determine whether it was actually my dress. Thankfully it fit like a glove. Even after that, they still seemed unsure so I showed Yelp messages I had previously sent with photos of the dress, along with my receipt and even how much I paid. I usually throw receipts away, so thank goodness I still had it. After confirming in multiple different ways, they finally let me take my dress home. Another woman was also there picking up clothing after receiving a text notification and they were struggling to locate her item too, so it didn't seem like an isolated issue. Overall, I think the tailoring work itself is solid, but the shop felt pretty disorganized. The guy working there did apologize before I left, which I appreciated, but the whole process of having to repeatedly prove the dress was mine was definitely frustrating.

I know they have to keep their doors open. I just was truly shocked. I am also just not satisfied with the end product? And yes I could have asked for adjustments but I did not have time. These items were needed for an event. I also looked online and it said 3 weeks would be a sufficient amount of time to have what I needed done. And I felt like I was treated pretty coldly when I first came in when I told them I needed the item by a certain date. Told I was "cutting it close". I don't know. Again I really do understand and I'm glad this place exists. I just will not be returning. Especially for smaller Items.

There is a reason why the best review for this bridal shop is the owner's sister. If you can alter…read moreor purchase your dress anywhere else, I suggest you do so. In summary, my experience fell short of what one expects from a boutique shop. While we are expected to pay boutique prices, boutique service is not what is provided. I purchased my wedding dress here because I love supporting local, women-owned business. Well, after months of not receiving any communication as to when my dress would arrive, I contacted the shop. I had to follow up with the store on MULTIPLE occasions to get an accurate date as to when my dress would be in. When my dress finally arrived, I went in for alterations and Kelly said the cost would be over $1,000 after already spending nearly $3,000 on my wedding dress. The sales rep originally told me alterations would be about $500 so when Kelly casually told me the alterations total I was shocked. More than double what I was quoted?! I don't have parents paying for my dress so this is all coming out of my pocket. I asked, because I purchased the dress in her shop, if there was any kind of a discount to which she swiftly replied, "No. Absolutely not." At that point I tried to rack my brain as to whether I'd be able to come up with the rest of the money and said I wasn't sure and that I'd need to take the dress and figure something out. She rolled her eyes, stormed off, put my dress into a bag and said that if I came back for alterations, I wouldn't have it in time for my trip to Spain (I'm having a destination wedding). I felt like she was trying to scare me into leaving the dress with her, which is really messed up. What started as a sweet moment in a nice shop was ruined once Kelly got involved. UPDATE: I found a shop in Riverside who will do all the work needed (hem, bringing in the waist/bust, AND adding sleeves) all for under $300. I also found matching fabric for my dress at New Rainbow Fabrics for $25. You can do much better than this shop.

Kelly had champagne ready and a positive and energetic attitude toward the process! I started looking for a dress a few months later than recommended (quicker wedding) and Kelly really helped me with my timeline for getting my dress ready in time! I found my dream dress at Sew Bridal but had some ideas to make it even better and Kelly was open to helping me make all of the changes. She made sure everything came out absolutely perfect and it was an amazing experience. She also took a piece of my grandmas dress and stitched the date my grandma wore hers and the date I wore mine in blue as my something old and something blue, which was so special. I highly recommend Sew Bridal! Full disclosure, Kelly, the owner is actually my sister, which made this experience even more special and amazing to me. I have watched Kelly make her dream a reality with Sew Bridal and through Sew Bridal help so many people look and feel confident and amazing on their wedding days. It was really a wonderful experience to be able to be her costumer!
