    Their last email to me after the phone call described in the review.

    I would really think twice about booking an appointment with John Emily Studio. They will cancel your appointment for no reason or double book you and turn you away. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. I booked my J.E.S. bridal appointment over two months ago and called 2 weeks before the set date to re-confirm. The only reason why I called them to re-confirm was because I was making arrangements to pick up my bridal belt from Ladies of Lineage and they told me to confirm the appointment because several of their brides were cancelled/turned away because they were double booked. Then, I found out John Emily Studio had also double booked me. I had to call and email them several times to get responses and they were incredibly unprofessional. When I finally did speak to who I was supposed to, they cancelled my appointment and stated for "legal reasons" they could not "disclose why" they had to cancel the appointment. She repeated that like 5x. She insinuated that they cancelled me because I was a referral from Ladies of Lineage, which I thought was odd and extremely unprofessional. She even said that it was no their fault and that they apologize on behalf of Ladies of Lineage. During the call, she wouldn't let me speak and continuously interrupted me and she never once apologized for the trouble or for double booking me. When I asked why they hadn't reached out sooner, she said they were "planning to call but hadn't gotten around to it yet." I told her that this is not something to wait around to do. It should have been handled immediately. After the phone call, John Emily Studio emailed me the details of two other alterations shops that I could contact. Their email was incredibly rude. They didn't address me, they didn't apologize for the inconvenience....it only had the contact information for the other 2 shops. Who conducts business this way?? If you're thinking about booking with John Emily Studio, I would think again and find a place that treats everyone fairly and with respect.

    I really couldn't have stumbled on a better place to trust with my most favorite dress. They know what they are doing-- from the hemming, to the sizing, to the bustle and all areas in between. Everyone is so kind and you can tell there is passion behind their customer service. They accommodated my schedule and really, just did such a great job. I would recommend them to anyone.

    The family team at John Emily are amazing! They were able to hem all 11 layers of my dress perfectly! They can handle even the most complicated dresses. All of my fittings were very stress free. You have their one on one attention and you immediately trust their expertise. Their mother also custom made my garter which was beautiful. I highly recommend them! Thank you John Emily!

    Fit perfectly!

My wife had an excellent experience working with Walid's wife for her wedding dress alterations. She was professional, attentive, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free--which meant a lot during wedding planning. As for me, working with Walid on my custom suit was hands-down the best tailoring experience I've had. This was my second custom suit, and the difference in quality, attention to detail, and overall experience was night and day. Walid is incredibly professional, and you can tell right away that he truly loves what he does. With over 30 years of experience, his expertise shows in every step of the process. He takes the time to understand exactly what you want, offers great guidance, and makes you feel confident in every decision. The final product speaks for itself--an amazing suit that fits perfectly and looks incredible. If you're considering getting a custom suit and want both an outstanding product and an even better experience, do yourself a favor and go see Walid at Myers Park Tailors. You won't regret it.

Recently, when my wife needed alterations on a dress, I told her there was no one better to fulfill her needs. While waiting for my wife to get fitted, I perused the off-the-rack suits and found that they are actually semi-custom. I picked one out, told them my tight window for needing it and they made it happen. There's no clothing challenge they can't tackle.
