    She can be a little expensive at times, but I think you pay for quality. She has not disappointed me yet and I am a repeat customer.

    Service provided was good, however price for adding 2 snaps was $38.00. Way overpriced! Will not use again.

    New address on Graves Mill Road. Brought in my MOG dress to be taken in. When I went to retrieve…read moreit, it was laying on the table in a heap and another seamstress just sitting there beside it playing on her phone. Seriously? She knew I was coming in to pick it up at this specific time, but I figured as long as she could steam out the wrinkles I wouldn't make an issue of it. I noticed that the hem wasn't even but the skirt part of the dress was pleated and I had shoes that would likely make it not look so uneven so I didn't mention it. When I tried it on, it was too tight on the top and not well altered in the bust, the dress had ripples in the bust area that were not there when I dropped it off. The seamstress kept saying "we didn't do anything to that part of the dress" over and over. Ok, but she did alter the shoulders and waist parts which will affect how the bust lays. That's just plain common sense, I'm not a seamstress but what she was claiming made no sense at all. I wasn't in a mood to argue with her and didn't trust her to actually fix the problem she created because she kept denying it was an actual problem, so I just left. $70 later, which I find a ridiculous price for what she did, and I have to take it somewhere else to fix her mistakes. She seemed curmudgeonly and acted like she didn't really care, even when I dropped the dress off. She was more interested in her tv playing the 700 club, and boasting about a cruise she will be taking in a few weeks. She's an older lady, maybe it's time for her to retire.I'm so upset, as if I didn't have enough stress because of the upcoming wedding in 3 days, now I have to add this back on my to-do list. I don't recommend this shop, and certainly won't be taking any more clothing to be altered.

    My husband has been going here for years with no issues, so I thought it would be a.good place to…read moretake my new wool blanket to be cleaned. However, it came back covered in long dog or cat hair. He took it back. They cleaned it again. It still had hair on it. We tried to lint roll it at home and went through 2 lint brushes trying to get the hair out. Still hair on it. I went in to nicely speak to the owner about it. She rudely stated that there's nothing they can do about and do I want my cleaning refund or not. If you have no issues, it's a great place. If there's a problem, the customer is left to deal with it. Would not recommend.

I went to pick it up on Saturday morning as scheduled. When I looked at the suit, I noticed the jacket had a crease pressed into the lapel, and as you will see in the pictures, there were other areas that look like they had just been missed in the pressing. I spoke with Julie who with her husband Andy are the owners. My family was scheduled to go out of town on Monday. Julie recognized that the jacket needed to be repressed and said that her husband Andy must not have inspected it when it was pressed. Julie said that they could get it re-pressed and either delivered to me by noon on Monday or I could pick it up from the store Monday morning by noon. She said that they would make it right. I felt that Julie was trying to do the right thing and mistakes happen. about an hour later, I got a call from Andy, her husband, who said that there was nothing wrong with the jacket, that he had pressed it himself, and that Julie, and two other customers said there was nothing wrong with the jacket. (Why other customers would be sharing their opinions is not clear to me. I think the pictures speak for themselves.). Andy also said that he couldn't get it re-pressed by Monday morning. He told me I either needed to pick up the jacket by noon on Saturday or that they would be open at eight on Monday and I could pick it up then. He said they would refund my money, but that they would not fix the problem. I told him I was not happy but he wasn't giving me any choice. I drove back on Saturday to get the jacket which ruined my planned Saturday morning breakfast with my son and family. On the way, I called Julie, told her I was coming back for the jacket,she said she had refunded the payment. I expressed to her that what really hurt was that her husband who had never seen the jacket said there was no problem when both she and I had seen the jacket and she had acknowledged there was a problem. When I got back to the store I told Julie that my breakfast with my son had been ruined. Her whole attitude had changed. She said she didn't want to hear it, what I had said was inappropriate and to get out of the store.

    Extremely disappointing experience--would not recommend for bridal alterations…read more I brought multiple dresses here for my daughter's wedding, including her bridal gown, and it turned into a nightmare. The wedding dress came back completely unwearable--shoulders didn't fit, buttons were falling off, seams were uneven, and the stitching was coming undone. We had to buy a replacement dress just days before the wedding. Other dresses, including the reception gown and a bridesmaid dress, also had major issues. I gave the owner every opportunity to make things right--she acknowledged the problems and agreed to issue refunds. But after weeks of follow-ups, nothing was processed, and I've now been blocked from contacting her. I've been more than fair, even offering to absorb the cost of the original dress, just to resolve this peacefully. Instead, I was left with added stress, financial loss, and no accountability. Please think twice before trusting this business with anything as important as a wedding gown. I would never want another bride or family to go through what we did.

    From the owner: Hello Brides and future Brides!…read more My name is Alexis, I am the owner and podcast host of Love & Lace. My bridal shop is located in SML. My business provides brides with stylish designer dresses and accessories along with customized alterations, which you will not have to purchase a dress by me to have alterations done. But if you do say yes to the dress at my shop you will get 25% off your alterations!
