They had me come back twice before I picked up my dress to make sure the length was just right and fit perfectly. The alteration itself was beautifully done, and I was very pleased with the final result. The tailor was professional, courteous, and clearly took pride in making sure everything was just right. I also felt that the pricing was fair and very reasonable for the quality of work and attention to detail. I loved how my dress turned out and was very happy with the finished result. I would highly recommend Akram's Bridal & Formal Alterations to anyone looking for quality work, reasonable pricing, and excellent attention to detail!

She is a perfectionist and did multiple fittings to make sure everything was just right. This dress had multiple layers with a ton of fabric so I'm sure it was not an easy task.

When I reached out to him on Yelp, I appreciated that he was upfront about the cost and told me how much the tailoring would be without making me visit first. The cost was fair for what he was offering to do. A lot of the other tailors will tell you the price only after you come in. Ramadan was able to get my tuxedo tailored in 2 weeks and with excellent craftsmanship. The shop was clean and professional. I would visit again for future tailoring needs.

Ilove that they come pick up and drop it back off - so convenient. They were so kind and heard all my thoughts about what I was looking for and said they would reach out with any questions. The update: When I first got the quilt back it wasn't what I expected with the material that was used for the patches. But I'm adding this part to speak to Burrell's incredible response and solution. He offered to rework it and was very sincere on making sure I was happy with the finished product. After I found a fabric that was the same material and matched the style better, he redid the patches, sent me pictures before redoing them to make sure it was what I envisioned, and returned my quilt again. I absolutely love it and am just so grateful for how he handled everything. Highly, highly recommend and will definitely contact him for anything I need in the future.

I found this shop by chance when I needed to have my dress hemmed when I was a bridesmaid and they…read moredid a fantastic job. Reasonably priced as well, the quality is what you pay for. Once planning for my wedding came around and I needed my dress altered, I was googling places and reading reviews. This shop came up again and had other happy brides, so I decided to go for mine. I worked with Kelly and she did a phenomenal job on my straps, sizing it down to fit my waist, the bustle, and hemming the length without losing my train! She was so flexible with my schedule and responded to me very quickly. She had taken my straps up (the top has a base mesh material with lace sown on top) and you can't even tell its altered. She also took the time to talk to me about the different types of bustles (which I was unaware of) and we eventually decided on a french bustle. The bustle is so subtle and beautiful, very flattering to my A-line style dress. Finally, the hem was done perfectly with my heels on and I didn't lose much from the train length. All amazing quality work that I feel was reasonable for what I paid for. I highly recommend this shop for any of your tailoring needs, but definitely for brides since I feel like it's hard to research and find a good tailor for wedding dresses. I'm only going to come here for any of my other needs from now on.
