    Diane was such a big help in getting my wedding dress fixed. The top was too high for my frame and…read moreshe worked with my budget and time to give me what I absolutely needed. I have also had a bridesmaid dress altered by her as well and she did an excellent job. Will go to her for my alteration needs because she does such a wonderful job. Thank you Diane!

    I would proceed with caution if you need alterations on a wedding dress. I went to this seamstress…read morebecause of her positive yelp reviews and the write up on her website about experience, but I really wish I would have chosen someone else who could really dedicate the necessary time on my dress. I wish she would have been honest, and upfront that she couldn't take my business due to time constraints. Before accepting any sort of service, I would ask her if she really has time to dedicate on you and your dress. Let me preface my review by stating I am a sewer and amateur seamstress myself. I chose not to work on my own dress because I didn't want the hassle for my wedding day. And I also want to say the owner of this shop was very professional. I don't doubt she has skill and expertise, she's just far too busy to really tap into it. Like I hinted above, the friendly woman (Diane?) who owns this business was far too busy and overwhelmed on alterations during prom season to spend the right amount of time needed for my wedding gown. Also, her shop was so crowded, it only increased any kind of nervousness or lack of trust I had for choosing her when I would go to my appointments. I ended up having 4 appointments with her and by the 3rd appointment, I was worried. (I almost believe she forgot I actually already had 3 fittings already by the 4th visit.) At the 4th I was disappointed, but just wanted to get out of there and never come back. I didn't complain to her, and this is a regret. But, it was 1 day before my wedding and what more could she really do? I just wanted to get home, and use the remaining 1 day! of time to fix what I paid for. What she altered in on the sides was a professional job, and I was impressed. What I had requested done for the shoulders was last minute, and she did well for the time. No complaints for either of these. However, the most visible part of the dress where she needed to insert a fabric modestly piece was so botched. She left a raw edge on the fabric, so it was fraying my entire wedding day and folks commented!!!! Also she machine sewed it (so the stitching was visible to everyone) and she didn't even trim the extra thread. She should have hand sewed it. If I had the time, I would have just done this myself if I had known this was what I was paying for. It was basically a "I only have 10 minutes before she gets here, let's do this quick and dirty" kind of job. I'm at least grateful the thread matched. I ended up seam ripping out all of the changes she made to the bow requests. Maybe there was a miscommunication there of what I wanted, but whatever she did to it, was beyond me. It was hand stitched crooked on the back. I liked the bow before, but whatever was done to it made me dislike it. I ended up taking it off of the back of the gown. It did not make it to the wedding. Like I said above, I think the owner is incredibly talented when she has time- so ask her before you give her business. I think she may be balancing some tough things in her personal world that make her overbook what she's capable of completing on time. I would have been willing to pay more for her time if she would've actually been upfront. I wanted my dress to look nice and would have paid whatever if she needed to charge for that time to make it look great. I ended up paying $100 and was just solely bummed. Luckily I didn't let it ruin my day. I would personally never use her services in the future.
