This is an excellent family owned place! SUPER FAST and RELIABLE!! I used them for altering my wedding dress and reception dress! My wedding dress was definitely not easy to work with, had so many layers and fabric but they went absolutely beyond with my requests!!! My husband also used them for suit alterations and they did AMAZING! We won't go any where else!!

Left picture: how I received the dress. Right picture: is what the final product look like after Pearl redid the top of the dress.

I got my wedding dress altered here and they did a wonderful job!…read more I'm having my wedding in New England and they did a great job accommodating travel time. They gave me an estimate in the beginning and stuck with it. They are experts in their craft and can be trusted with a women's wedding gown. If you want something done right then go here :)

I called last week to get a ballpark estimate on alterations for two suit jackets and four dress…read moreshirts. I explained what I needed, and the woman I spoke to (Sue) quoted around $25 per shirt and $35-$50 per jacket. She also mentioned it was their busy season and the turnaround time would be about three weeks, which I said was no problem. The following week, as agreed, I brought in the clothing. I stood at the front counter for several minutes before someone (her daughter, I assume) appeared. She didn't greet me or say anything--just looked at the clothes over my arm and let out an exaggerated sigh, as if I was burdening her with work. I greeted her and reminded her that I'd spoken with her mom the week before. She started pinning one of the jackets when Sue walked in. Like her daughter, she didn't greet me--just immediately started talking about me with her daughter: "What does he need? How many does he have? Did you give him a price?" Eventually, I introduced myself and reminded Sue we had spoken the previous week. Instead of continuing the fitting, she criticized me for bringing all the shirts in at once, saying I should've split the order into two trips. I told her I wasn't in a rush and that they could take their time--even a month was fine. Her response was that they didn't have time to pin every shirt, and when I suggested using one shirt as a template for the others, she didn't reply. Then came the new pricing: $110 per jacket--far above the initial estimate. I told her I've had the exact same alterations done on similar jackets before, usually at $40-$50 each. She cut me off, saying she doesn't negotiate. I clarified I wasn't negotiating, just sharing my previous experience, and she snapped, "Well maybe you should go to them and get them done then." At that point, I took my clothes and left. The attitude from both Sue and her daughter was dismissive and unwelcoming from start to finish. They seemed annoyed by the idea of actually doing business. Use them if you want, but I wouldn't recommend bringing in more than one or two items unless you want to be treated like an inconvenience.
