Hidden gem! A couple years ago I had a bridesmaid dress ordered that ended up being 4 sizes too big (yikes). Took it to Merci's with little hope that it would ever look good on me. With such a disaster of a dress, they worked their magic and it looked as great as it could given the circumstances (I mean this dress needed some massive fixing)! Fast forward to now - took another bridesmaid dress in to get altered and they called 2 days later letting me know it was done! Impressive!!! And of course the alteration looked great. Scheduling with them is a breeze - you can call OR Facebook message them (the option I chose). Super easy. They are also being very safe with COVID - only allowing one customer in at a time (hence the appointment scheduling), hand sanitizer right when you enter as well as on the counter, and everyone is masked. read more

Merci's Tailoring - (Dress on the right) - trust me when I say this top was HANGING off of me before Merck's fixed it. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Did a great job with my alterations. They are busy but quality so worth the wait of a few weeks for order completion! They did a nice job.

I needed a bridesmaid dress hemmed and some tacks moved for a wedding I am in this summer. I dropped my dress off, got the measurements done and left it there. Price was never discussed during the initial process at all, which I can take some blame for for not asking. The dress took 2.5 weeks to be done. It was well done. The problem I have is the pricing. The dress itself cost me less than $120 and when I picked the dress up, the alterations cost me $175. It was quite shocking. Again, well done alterations but is expensive. The dress also wasn't steamed when I picked it up either. read more

Merci's Tailoring did a fantastic job on a men's winter coat for me and I highly recommend them as a skilled tailor!!! The coat is vintage, having belonged to our grandfather and still in good shape, very nice warm wool, though the buttons needed replacement and the silk lining had gotten torn and worn out over the years. I consulted with Merci's about the materials needed because I wanted to gift the coat to the next generation. After I selected and provided new material and buttons, Merci's Tailoring began their magic, constructing the new lining and breathing new life into our grandfather's coat!!! The stitching is great, very smooth, and the buttons are attached very well. I am very pleased with the results as it is high quality work. Thank you, Merci's! read more

I recently have taken my mother-of-the-bride dress, my outfit for the rehearsal dinner as well as the Grandmother-of-the-Bride pantsuit; my daughter had her wedding dress altered by Merci. They were very professional, helpful, and they did their best in getting it done on time. In fact, they had my outfit ready before the promised date. The quality was very good and I was happy with the alterations. While not inexpensive, they were fair in pricing. I would definitely recommend Merci! read more

Exceeded expectations!! Great price too!! The customer service was phenomena. The owner was very kind

Great place. Good people and quick service. I needed a pant hemmed and they were quick to accommodate (for an extra fee which was fine and expected) and I was very impressed. I highly recommend them. read more

beautiful people ! Waiting on alterations but loved my experience when asking for alterations

This place is amazing. A hidden gem in Cedar Rapids. They did beautiful work repairing a beloved jacket that my son's dog used as a chew toy.You would never know it happened. Even with the pandemic, they got it done fast. I also felt safe going to them and having them do the work. They have excellent Covid-19 protocols in place. read more

Turn around time for my bridesmaids dress was about 2 weeks! Everything fit as expected at the final fitting!

Bobby With Merci's Tailoring is amazing, I needed a few military uniforms done in a rush, so I called Bobby, and he was very willing to work with me. He got all 7 uniforms done within 3 days, and it was a very affordable price. I WILL be going back to Bobby in the future for all of my needs, and I would highly recommend Merci's Tailoring to anyone!! Carter Balentine read more

Upon my initial visit for a rush hem adjustment to suit pants, I was met with extraordinary courtesy and professionalism. The tailoring was completed on time and cost was reasonable. The customer service was amazing and the attendant even remembered my name when I returned to pick up the suit pants. I highly recommend Merci's Tailoring and I will certainly give all my tailoring business to this deserving establishment. read more

Very personal, attentive, and kind service. Quality work at a very affordable price. Highly recommended for any tailoring needs. Would go back in the future. read more

This place really knows what they're doing. Located in the back lower level of a business complex. It seems a little weird walking by an insurance company with their door open whilst carrying a huge dress, but once you get into the tailoring business itself it seems very professional. I've come here on several occasions when a dress was too big to have it taken in, or when a prom dress was too long, and I couldn't even tell the dress had been altered, it seemed like it was made just for me! The seams were fantastic. The people there are incredibly nice and friendly, and seem very professional. The pricing is a little high, I've had dresses that cost 40 dollars to alter, and dresses that were extremely full that were 100. But I feel with the quality of the work, and the staff, you really get what you pay for. read more

Bobbi took great care of us on super short notice adjusting and hemming my husbands suit for a wedding he was in. He was able to get us in and the pants fixed in just a few hours to make sure we could make the rehearsal on time even though he was very busy. Much appreciated! read more

A family shop feel, for quality and professionalism unparalleled anywhere else. My experience was WONDERFUL. the staff is all very friendly and professional. They will answer any and all questions, no such thing as a dumb question to them. They are very flexible with the schedule and are willing to "bend over backwards" to accommodate your availability. The neighborhood may not be what you expect for a tailor shop, but once you walk in it is professional and inviting. Would highly recommend! Had my wedding so suit and all my groomsmen fitted here. Will be going back. read more
