Jeanetta was amazing personality and workwise. She has a great energy that tells you right away she likes what she's doing. Her pricing is very fair and she's accommodating with working around your schedule for fittings. I did 3 fittings with her. I took my dress to her about 6 weeks before my wedding and everything was done in perfect timing. I had a size 12 dress that needed to be taken in to a size 6. The dress fit me like a glove on my wedding dress. I received so many compliments on my wedding day and I have Jeanetta to thank you that. I would definitely refer a friend to her without hesitation. read more

I wish I came here first!! Be wary of the few poor reviews, there's just no pleasing some brides. Jeanetta was amazing and a delight. You can tell that she's very experienced and really cares about your dress being perfect for your day. At first, I went to another bride tailor in West Hollywood as I bought my dress out of state and didn't know that Jeanetta was the preferred BHLDN vendor. A few months after alterations elsewhere, I needed a quick change on my dress (removing extra cups). Since Jeanetta was just down the road, I decided to ask for her help instead of my previous tailor. But when I got in, she had me practice walking and dancing (not something my previous tailor did) and we discovered a lot of issues with my lace hem being too long in areas, tripping and stepping all over it. It was hemmed incorrectly and my bustle was done incorrectly. Given what I had already paid in previous alterations, I was very worried about how much it would be to fix these issues that shouldn't have been there. However I found Jeanetta's pricing to be very fair, and lower than I was expecting for the industry; many won't even give you a quote without money down. Huge relief. She made the changes and my dress is perfect now! She even had me film her doing the bustle so my bridal party would know how to do it. Can't thank her enough! read more

Jeanetta was great to work with! I brought my dress 6 weeks before my wedding and was already stressed because it came late. Jeanetta was so knowledgeable about wedding dresses and really put me at ease. My dress was at least 2 sizes too big, intricate lace and beading, and had a lot of material. She did a perfect job taking it in. She's by appointment only which I appreciated because she paid a lot of attention to detail and gave me so many tips about how to care for the dress and how even to walk and sit in it. Like I said my dress was really intricate and too big so it took more appointments to come in and resize but she was so accommodating and really wanted to help me. Plus she's really affordable! I would definitely recommend her to any bride or other formal dresses because she does it all! read more

Jeanetta at the brides tailor is amazing. She handled not one but both of my wedding dresses with such detail and precision. She added elastic to my off the shoulder wedding dress to make sure the straps stayed in the right place and did a complete overhaul on my delicate lace reception dress by taking in the sides, removing the train completely and adding cups to a sheer bodice. She's very responsive to texts and was flexible with my busy schedule to set up an appointment. She was patient and helped me throughout the whole process even offering suggestions and tips to make the most of my big day. I had her steam my veil and both dresses. Plus she stuffed them both to ensure they remained wrinkle free on my big day. If you're looking for quality - she's the best there is. read more

Jeanetta is amazing. Her work is impeccable and she is SO knowledgeable. She was so kind to me in my time of need and was able to alter my wedding gown in 12 days after the first dress was botched. Her prices are reasonable and she delivers on what she says she will. I would HIGHLY recommend Jeanetta to anyone needing bridal alterations. read more

I had a bad experience with The Brides Tailor for several reasons when having my wedding dress and reception dress altered. I would not go back to this place for future alterations, and I would not recommend this place to a friend. I'm happy to go into detail for my opinions, which is why this is a long post. BOTTOM LINE, GO ELSEWHERE. Let me start with one positive. HEMS - Being that I'm only 5'4", I needed both my wedding dress and reception dress hemmed. The wedding dress was tricky because a delicate layer of decorative lace covered the whole dress. Jeanetta was able to shorten the dress and keep a lot of the lace detail, so that was a very good thing. SCHEDULING - This is where things started to go downhill. My wedding isn't until Sept. 2016, but after reading Yelp reviews, I scheduled a consultation with Jeanetta for Feb. 27th. Jeanetta had a nice demeanor, so I agreed to make the appointments to start alterations. She recommended that we wait until late May to begin just in case I lost weight, so my first fitting was on May 28th. That appointment was ok. I was originally scheduled for another fitting in mid-July with a pick-up date in early August, but on June 2nd, my fiancé and I had a major work opportunity come up that would require us to move to Oregon in mid-July. My first call was to Jeanetta explaining that I needed to push up my pickup date - still giving her 1.5 months notice. I left her a VM and sent a text explaining how my scheduled needed to change and asking her repeatedly if we could talk about any questions and details. Instead of calling me back, she sent me a text saying she didn't have enough time to work on my wedding dress, so she would hem my reception dress and return my other dress unaltered. I called her to discuss details because I believed a decision like that warranted at least one conversation. After a few minutes of her talking, she explained that she wouldn't be able to finish my wedding dress hem by mid-July unless I came in for another fitting before then. Adding another fitting appointment was no problem for me, so I gladly agreed to that, and let her pick the day and time that was convenient for her. Why you would first lie to a client and tell them you don't have time, but then later tell them that of course you can finish both dresses but you need one more fitting, is beyond me. After waiting 3 months to start the process, I was frustrated at how easily she was willing to flake out on my wedding dress without even having one conversation with me. The next fitting was scheduled for 11a in late June - I was on time but Jeanetta slept in late and missed our appointment. She rescheduled me for two days later reassuring me that she had plenty of time to finish both dresses. Overall, it was not a pleasant process with Jeanetta. TAKING IN SIDES - During the first fitting, in addition to hems, we also discussed possibly taking the sides seams in. After my change of schedule, we had an entire conversation during our second fitting of how she was NOT taking in the sides, only shortening the hems, and how I already had a seamstress in Oregon scheduled to address any additional alterations. I know Jeanetta understood this because she did not pin the sides of the dress while I was wearing it and she also wrote "HOLD" over the side alteration description on the estimation sheet. I saw that with my own eyes. Imagine my surprise when I show up to pickup the dress and she tells me she went ahead and took in the sides anyway. She said she thought that's what we discussed, but that wasn't true. I'm sure it's very easy to mix up conversations, but when you write HOLD in your notes, why would you make an alteration without at least double checking with the bride first? Very, very messy organization on her part. By the way, because she didn't pin me for the sides while I was wearing the dress, the sides don't fit the way I want, so I still have to go to the seamstress in Oregon anyways. PRICE CHANGES AT THE END - I took a picture of the original estimation sheet. Jeanetta stayed true to the hem price quotes, but she also wrote down that taking in or letting out the side seams would be $30. As I'm trying to pickup my dress, she tells me that $30 was just for her shortening the lace on my shoulders (again, didn't ask her to do this), but that adjusting the side seams was $70. As a favor, she would only charge me $40 for the side seams. Not only was she not supposed to touch the side seams in the first place, she changed her prices on me last minute. In the photo attached is my original estimation sheet showing the $30 quote for side seams - how do you then tell a client it's $70 but that you'll do it for $40? Again, this is an example of poor organization and poor communication. When you run a business, your skill is very important, but so is your communication and organization. The sewing is ok, but I do not believe Jeanetta is a trustworthy professional. read more

The Brides Tailor - Estimation sheet from Feb. 2016 - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Burbank, California

This store is a gem! After purchasing my gown, I was super stressed about finding a tailor who would come within budget. I had previously browsed through the Maggie Sottero/Midgely collection at nearby Unique Vintage in Burbank (who sadly no longer carry gowns) and fell in love with a dress. Unfortunately (but good for me!), they did not provide tailoring inside the store and recommended Jeanetta at The Brides Tailor. Sadly, I did not end up buying my dress at Unique Vintage and instead followed a Maggie Sottero/Midgley trunk show to Mary Me Bridal in Orange where I purchased my gown. The store offered tailoring, but with sashes priced at $490, I thought I would price around. SO glad that I kept her card and that I stepped in to her store. Jeanetta's store is on an uneventful strip off Burbank Blvd. It can be easily missed, so be careful! But once you're inside, the very cute boutique style will make you feel right at home. There are comfy couches and chairs for friends and entourage, accessories that she makes on display, and samples of some of her dance costumes, and dresses. Jeanetta is very sweet and willing to work with you and give you a good estimate on what other stores would charge you in excess for. She is very professional and full of great suggestions and advice. With the savings I had leftover, Jeanetta made me a beautiful custom veil that dragged behind me as I walked down the aisle for the price of what others wanted for a rental!! AND made me a custom sash as well for a fraction of the cost of others. (Still waiting on pictures from my photographer!) Both turned out beautiful! So glad that I took my business to her and happy to recommend her to all brides! read more

Jeanette is a dream! She is kind, gentle, and a perfectionist! Her studio is comfortable and cozy. I ended up having 4 fittings, and left in the best mood after each of them! She makes you feel very much at ease during the whole process. She even ended up working on my Moms dress too! Her prices are also amazing! Rest assured that your dress is in good hands with Jeanette. I loved the way my dress turned out. I also ended up purchasing a veil from Jeanette, which I never anticipated that I would have wanted a veil. But when else are you ever going to wear one?! The simple veil she made for me was amazing. Thanks for everything Jeanette! read more

I loved my experience at the Brides Tailor. Jeanetta was such a pleasure to work with.

Where to start... Jeanetta saved my life! I purchased my bridesmaid dress in Downtown Los Angeles (Little cheap stores) the size I tried on was a medium (vague size, I know) well the dress was purchase in January I received my bridesmaid dress on May 9th, when I tried on my dress at the store I purchased it from it don't fit at ALL. After minutes of crying, the store owner finally decided to tell me that she could have a dress "manufactured" in less than five days for a whopping $500+... I could have killed her; the Bride (my sister) could have killed her. That's when I began my research and found The Brides Tailor. I called Jeanetta on that Monday May 9th after I had calmed down. Jeanetta went into her shop an hour and a half early for me on Tuesday May 10th, she told me the pros and the cons but told me not to worry, she would make it work and that the four day deadline wasn't much of an issue. Friday May 13th morning, at 11am I went to pick my dress up because I need it to make it to Palm Springs, CA. before 3pm. I put my dress on, and my immediate reaction; I hugged her. I wanted to cry quite honestly. My dress fit like a glove. I have few more weddings coming up, and honestly even if its a hem, she has my business 150%. If it wasn't for her my sister would have one odd bridesmaid. Thank you a million times Jeanetta, you're a life saver! read more

The Brides Tailor - Thank you for fitting my dress perfectly, YOU are the BEST!!! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Burbank, California

Let me start by saying Jeanetta is AMAZING! *Long story short, I found a beautiful wedding dress on Craigslist for my December wedding. Although it wasn't what I envisioned getting married in, I knew I could find someone to turn it into my dream dress. I came to yelp and that's how I found Jeanetta. I brought the dress in as early as March for her to start working on it. She really brought my ideas to life. I couldn't believe it was the same dress. I loved it so much and so did my husband. Thank you so much Jeanetta! You made me feel like such a beautiful bride. *I am going to attach a ton of photos. (The first two will be what the dress looked like before.) read more

I can't say enough about Jeanetta!!! She is the best and wants the best for her clients. I have been going to her for two years now and she has become a great friend. Recently, I was in a pageant and she made my dress look knock-out gorgeous. She really takes her time to get everything perfect, and she is so reliable; no matter what she will get what you need done on time even if she has to work into the night, for many nights. She is so nice and caring and she won't let you down. Its the best feeling in the world when you have a dress that fits you perfectly and looks amazing. Her alterations are fabulous and whatever she gets her hands on, she makes it beautiful. For example, for one of my dresses, my mom and I wanted sleeves on it, but the way my mom described it made it seem like I would be a nun:) I of course did not want that and just wanted a lighter sleeve. Jeanetta combined what I wanted and what my mom wanted into beautiful, fashionable, modest dress, which made us both happy. She will do what you want and what looks the best on you. Jeanetta makes her clients feel happy and beautiful:) She is also very very reasonable regarding prices. No matter what, I always leave her tailor shop with a smile because I know that I am leaving anything that i giver her in great hands and plus she is such a great person and is so friendly. If you want an incredible and wonderful experience with tailoring whether it be a wedding, prom, a pageant or any event, I 100% recommend Jeanetta and The Brides Tailor. You will be so happy that went to her. *Every time I would go to Burbank I would stop by Porto's, which is an amazing food place, and would buy her something from there to show her my appreciation for her. And plus, she loves that place. Its really close to her shop too:) read more

I found Jeanetta on Yelp and am so happy I did. She did excellent alterations (I'm a short person and it is a long dress with a train), she was great about communicating, she gave her expertise when needed (I had NO IDEA what to do with the dress once I picked it up the week before the wedding) and gave me lots of options for bustle, bra cups, hem, etc. She trimmed and added crystals to a veil that I had had made elsewhere, gave advice on undergarments and accessories, and was always a pleasure to work with. She and I are already planning on making my dress into a below-the-knee version so I can wear it again. She also has great accessories in her studio. Thank you Yelp and thanks Jeanetta - I felt absolutely beautiful, I got so many compliments, and I was so comfortable in my dress yesterday, I even said I wanted to put it back on today!! read more

The Brides Tailor - Photos in the street.... perfectly hemmed to my shoes! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Burbank, California

Jeanetta saved my wedding dress! After another tailor did a horrible job adding a bustle to my dress and told me there was nothing better that could be done to it because the material of the lining was too cheap. I took it to The Brides Tailor to get a second opinion and see if anything could be done. Jeanetta not only created a BEAUTIFUL four-part bustle, she corrected the crooked hook-and-eye the other tailor installed, it was a quick turnaround and it was very affordable. Brides, don't trust anyone else with your dresses! read more

I was referred to Jeanetta from a friend that had got married the year before. I was grateful to not have to do more research on this too! Jeanetta was great! She had all the helpful info about what shoes to buy and suggestions on how to wear my hair. Even on a timeline on how much time to talk to each guest at my wedding. And the best discussion I made for the whole wedding was buying a "relief" pair of shoes, which was a suggestion of Jeanettas thank you! Jeanetta was great with the scheduling, very up front about what everything would cost and how to save. I came in 2 months before the wedding. When I tried it on the first time I thought - Oh god its soo big everywhere, how it is ever going to fit right - But silly me. The second time I came in a month before, It was almost prefect and looked so great! Just a little long. I picked the finished dress up the week before the wedding. She had it all packed up for me as I was flying there and told me how to take care of it and how to travel with it. It was so helpful and it traveled great, no wrinkles! My only complaint is that she said she would remove the hanger strings, it must have just got missed. Just double check. Thanks Jeanetta, couldn't have done it without ya! read more

Jeanetta is the best! I bought a dress from a sample dress store back in January. It was two sizes too big, the hem had to be shortened because I'm pretty short, plus I wanted to modify the neckline to make it more modest. I called several tailors in the Burbank area to get an estimate on how much alterations would cost me. Jeanetta worked with my budget and gave me a great deal! She's very kind and always responsive whenever I needed to contact her. I got married in June of this year, and the dress looked gorgeous! It surpassed my expectations! I received many compliments on the dress and my accessories, which I was able to purchase through Jeanetta as well. I had a specific vision of how my veil, earrings, and hair accessories would be like for my wedding day. I sent Jeanetta images of what I was looking for, and by my next fitting she had a whole table of accessories set up and ready for me to choose from! The best thing about buying the veil and accessories from her, in my opinion, was that I had the ability to try on a bunch of things with my dress on, so I knew for sure that that was exactly how I would look on my wedding day! All the small floral details in my dress matched the details on my accessories so perfectly! She also created a custom bustle for my dress which looked beautiful! Although it was a more complicated bustle, she made sure she gave my Maid of Honor a map so that she can have a cheat sheet on the wedding day in case she gets lost. On top of that she was readily available the day before and the day of, when my Maid of Honor had more questions about bustling the dress. I could not have been happier with the way everything turned out, and I'm so glad I decided to entrust my wedding dress with her! read more

I had the best experience with Jeanetta! I came to her with my ill-fitting, too-poofy for my liking wedding dress, and she transformed it into my dream gown. For starters, I'm very short. The dress I had tried on in the store had been tried on many times before, and the extra length made it hang so that it wasn't quite so poofy. When my gown came in, I was a little disappointed. At 5'2", the ballgown silhouette made me look very...triangular. I explained the look I was going for, and she took a very close look at all the different fabrics and how they were set in the gown before explaining what she could do. She was very kind, but also realistic about setting my expectations. After a few short fittings, I left feeling like a dream! She hemmed the multiple layers beautifully, removed a stiffer under-layer of fabric, added a detailed and beautiful bustle, and tailored the bodice to fit perfectly. Is she the cheapest tailor in the industry? No. But since most people consider this one of the most important things you'll ever wear, it was well worth it to me. (It also ended up being less expensive than the flat rate alterations from the bridal salon where I purchased my dress). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Bride's Tailor to any of my friends and family looking for formal alterations! read more

I originally purchased my dress summer 2018 for a May 2019 wedding, which needed some pretty big alterations (taken in a size or two, shortened, removing the train, and using the lace from the train to create little cap sleeves). All of these alterations were done *beautifully* and *very* reasonably priced. I had to push in March, and she worked with me to let me pick up the dress in April, and then helped me this summer to come back in and try it on (where she made a video showing my bridesmaids how to get me into the dress), and made sure all the sticking around the zipper was strong and solid. All said, I am incredibly impressed with the work and the price, and she made sure that the dress was the *one* thing I didn't need to stress about in my rescheduling! read more

I got married last November and during the whole planning process, I was braced to get overcharged on everything. I lucked out in my dress shopping and purchased my dream dress, a Vera Wang as a sample at a deeply discounted price. The only thing was, the bodice was too small (I have a large ribcage which is always a problem when it comes to fitted tops) but I bought it anyway (despite every blog and article saying that's a no-no) and prayed for a miracle. That miracle came in Jeanetta. When I showed it to her she simply said, "No problem." She was always extremely kind, honest, punctual and made the alterations process very pleasant. And she was able to let out the bodice just enough to fit me, just as she promised. I was also surprised at how reasonable her rates were and would be happy to recommend her to anyone. read more

I took my BHLDN gown to Janetta to get it shortened. I was on a very tight budget so I was scared to take my gown to a tailor and I waited until a month before my wedding. The thing was that I was also unhappy with the back of my dress and I really wished to afford alterations on it, so when I first came to the brides tailor I was a little nervous. But Janetta made me feel very welcome, she didn't had a problem with me coming in just a month before the wedding. I explained to her what I wanted to do with my dress ( it had a zipper all the way up in the back, I wanted that removed and an open back ) she said that she could do that for sure and it would cost me 100$. I was really happy, because I thought it would cost me so much more that I couldn't do it. When I came in for a fitting, my dress was already shortened and she had started on the back, she wanted to make sure I really liked it before she put on the finishing touches. She did an incredible job with my dress, I was a really happy Bride! But it didn't stop there, we talked about veils and I told her that I had a hard time finding one in my budget and she promptly showed me all the veils that she had and told me she could make one for me. The one I choose came out to 50$! Also her shop had a really great selection of jewelry, that had a really good price as well. I was more then happy with her work and the prices and also how friendly and accommodating she was with me. Its really hard trusting someone with your wedding dress, but Janetta really put me at ease and I can only recommend her! read more

I had a wonderful experience having my wedding dress tailored here. My dress was done quickly and looked amazing!

I basically did everything wrong. I bought a bhldn dress online without getting measured at the store. Then I brought it to some place in Hollywood that my regular tailor had recommended. They were rude and awful and left the bottom of my dress uneven and the rest of it unflattering. I was ready to give up, but a little voice in my head said that I should bring it in and give it another shot. The recommendation came from a friend who bought her dress at the same place. Mind you, it was three weeks before my wedding! Jeanetta was awesome!! She made space for me in her busy schedule and welcomed me into her store. She was so gracious, she made me feel so at ease and comfortable. Her shop has a great vibe. Very calming and serene. Extra points for ample parking!! After two quick visits I was able to pick up my dress and on my wedding day it fit me like a glove. I felt so beautiful and special. Mind you I had not shown one person my dress before the wedding and had not one picture of myself in it that I was willing to show another human being. Jeanetta is an angel and totally transformed my dress. My big day was very special thanks to her. Side note, she has an excellent selection of accessories. I got a beautiful hair clip from her that matched my dress so perfectly. I found the idea of accessorizing my sequined/spangled dress overwhelming, but she handpicked the clip out for me and it was just gorgoeous with my hair/dress. read more

Jeanetta is amazing! I bought my dress on March 11, went to Jeanetta on March 15th. and I got married on April 29th. She not only took out the area of the dress that was tight around the hips, but she took a bow off the back, put a beautiful clip on it in its place, pressed the dress and steamed my veil, and the best part was she put lace in the back where it was backless. It was practically a brand new dress. It was so beautiful. Jeanetta was not only great at what she did and was very pleasant. but worked with me on the times and her prices were reasonable.

I went into The Brides Tailor about two weeks before my wedding. I had purchased a gown from the Internet, and needed a few last minute alterations. I didn't trust the local dry cleaner to handle my changes, so I did some research, and I discovered The Brides Tailor on Yelp. I called and made an appointment for the following Monday. I was running a bit late, but Jeanetta was totally understanding and sweet. We discussed the changes I desired (lower the neckline, bustle) and she said it'd be ready in about a week. I went in for our next appointment. It was perfect and ready to go! I paid the price I was quoted, a price way lower than other tailors, by the way. I would definitely recommend The Brides Tailor to anyone! Do be aware that it is cash only, I didn't know and had to hit up an ATM. read more

I came to Jeanetta with a 3.5 week deadline before my wedding, for reasons that are too lengthy to go into detail about. My wedding dress was a huge ball gown with a corset top consisting entirely of beads, and the skirt had about 6 layers of uneven hemlines that needed to be altered about a foot. Needless to say, this was not a task that should have been left to the last minute and I was scared to death that I was going to have to walk down the altar in an off the rack slip dress instead. I was referred to Janeatta by my bridal shop in San Diego. The girls at the bridal shop told me she was a sweetheart and my first impression of her was just that. She was the calm to my storm as I walked into her shop frantic and panicking and certain that she would turn me down due to the extremely short time frame that I gave her to work with. But she said YES! Jeanetta is one of the most talented seamstresses I've ever encountered. She is extremely detail oriented, efficient, patient, and composed. I had a total of 4, maybe 5, fittings with her and she worked around my schedule, and even stayed up all night for at least one of the fittings to finish the alterations that were necessary before my next appointment to try on the dress again. Not only did she alter my gown perfectly, she even made me a last minute (literally) veil because the one I had previously ordered from my bridal salon was the wrong color and I was unable to use it. My dress was a champagne color that was unlike any other dress color I or she had really seen, but she made several attempts to match the color of the veil almost seamlessly to my dress and I was absolutely in love with how it turned out. I put all my trust in her hands and I am so happy I did. My veil was plain, yet super unique per her design recommendation! In addition, Jeanetta's prices are amazing considering the quality of work she produces. Her prices are competitive with other seamstresses I called and I should note that the other seamstresses I spoke to had an entire team working for them, whereas Jeanetta essentially does all the work herself so you can trust the quality of work. I am definitely looking forward to the next special occasion because I want Jeanetta to make me a dress from scratch, because that is essentially what she had to do with my bridal dress and she did an impeccable job! Thank you!! read more
