    Incredible work done on my dress! All for a wonderful price and timing, plus the store itself is wonderful to look around in!

    I was recommend to get my wedding dress alterations at this shop by Blue House Bridal. March 2024…read more It was not the best experience unfortunately. Please, save your money, emotions, stress and time and try to find a different place for your wedding dress alterations. It was NOT a worthwhile or pleasant experience. The alterations ended up being mostly what I wanted, but the issues were customer service, timing, pricing and final result. During each visit except 1, the owner was extremely rude, always had an attitude, seemed annoyed we were there and acted like she hated us. All we did was show up and be as kind as we could. As far as the pricing, we paid over $1,200 for these alterations. INSANE. My dress was that price and it came from a fancy well-known shop in Carmel. We couldn't believe it. At the second visit, NOTHING was completed, and she didn't seem to realize beforehand. It was a wasted visit or maybe not because she wouldn't have realized nothing had been done. Due to their timing and not getting alterations completed in a timely manner, I did not get to pick up my dress until THREE days before my wedding. THREE. Unacceptable. I realized the day of my wedding that the final hem on the bottom wasn't completed, so it was too long and I kept tripping on it. Therefore, they still hadn't completely finished the alterations. I am unsure why I had this experience because at the time the reviews were over 4 stars. It clearly has gone downhill. Don't give this woman your business. She does not care about you at all. Bummer. Horrible stress for something that should be fun and memorable.

    Unfortunately, I would not recommend this business. When my daughter tried on her wedding dress 2…read moredays before her wedding, the top of the dress wasn't tacked down properly and it wasn't pressed. We had to take it back and have them finish the alterations!! They were so incredibly rude when we were the one's being inconvenienced. Not to mention we paid over $1300 for the alterations!! Hem, bustle and taking it in a small amount on the sides!!

    I took some more pants in to be be worked on. I discussed with the owner how I had had repairs done…read morewith him before, and was very happy with them. He then told me the work I wanted done would be $20. I thought for a few moments and told him to go ahead with the repairs. He then asked if I had the money to pay for it. I said that I did not have enough cash, but have my bank card. I was told they do not take plastic and was handed back the pants. I cannot believe he would treat a return customer in that manner. The previous two times I used his services, pre-payment was not required. He has lost me as a customer.

    I've used this group for a number of different alterations- mainly due to convenience. While most…read moreof the work has been good/decent, they are not the most friendly- nor do they accept plastic. Cash and check only!! Most recently, I brought a bridesmaid dress in for minor alterations. We went in today to see what they did: it was not exactly what I asked for. Once the woman saw how I responded, as well as the bride, she kept making excuses and telling me that I didn't ask for "what I specifically asked for" . . . then while I was taking the dress off in the changing room, she was telling the bride that if I lost weight, it would fit better!!!!!!!! What?! I would have been OK w/the alterations, but that type of comment is not necessary. I've recommended this place to a number of different people, but I will refrain from doing so after today.

    Had a 5+ star experience with Diane at A Fitting Creation…read more I needed a repair made to a dress that I stepped on and caused a tear in the skirt. I made an appointment drop off and web made our way to A Fitting Creation. It's not located far from US 40. Diane has her own building adjacent to her home. It's clean and comfortable. It was a snowy/icy morning and Diane's husband made sure that a path was cleared and that I got inside safely. Drop off was easy. Diane discussed our options, depending upon how things worked out when she dug into the repair. I don't wasn't in a hurry to get the dress back at all. She called a few weeks later and the dress was complete. She had me try it on so that I could be sure everything was as it should be. The dress was great. I couldn't even tell where the repair had been made. Her fee was beyond reasonable. She offers a number of great services, including a mail in service if you just need something like a zipper or other repair that doesn't affect fit. She also has a day-of bridal service where she's with the entire bridal party to ensure there are no issues with fit or presentation. I highly recommend Diane and will look to her in the future. She's a kind and engaging woman, on top of being a talented seamstress.

    I was very impressed with Erin's work! I took my wedding dress to get altered here. It was done in…read morea timely manner. She was very friendly, accommodating, and pleasant to work with. She helped to alter my wedding dress to fit me well, shorten the straps, and hem the bottom. My dream was to add sleeves to my dress, which she did beautifully with ribbons. She added a bustle and came to my rescue when my cats ripped a hole in my veil. She even made me scrunchies from the scraps of the alterations. It was beautiful!

    Erin was great to work with and my gown fit like a glove the day of my wedding!…read more I was recommended to Erin by my now mother-in-law. Her daughter had her wedding gown altered by Erin. This must have been no easy task because her gown was allll beads and applique. So gorgeous! Erin has an eye for detail and allows for weight fluctuations in between fittings. My gown needed taken in at the bust and length shortened. In addition to everything fitting very nicely, she also fastened my rhinestone belt to my gown so it wouldn't move around but could also be removed after the wedding. Erin also takes the time to make sure you and the person helping you with your dress know exactly how the dress is secured. She even gave us some great pointers on how to make a perfect bow and how to use a crochet hook for quickly hooking buttons (of which there were tons on my dress). My wedding was on a Sunday when Erin's shop is closed, but Erin was nice enough to make herself available in order for my wedding coordinator to pick up my dress. As part of the cost of alterations, my dress and veil were steamed. They looked pristine the day of the wedding. Compared to other alterations shops in Indianapolis I would say Erin is on the more expensive side, but when you are in the shop for a fitting it is only you. No other brides sizing up you and judging your dress. No one rushing you in and out. It is calm and quiet, which to me is priceless. A great experience with Erin. Highly recommend.
