Shelly did an absolutely beautiful job altering my dress. Her services were top of the line, efficient (only 3 appointments), and very affordable! 10/10 would recommend.

I highly recommend Shelly! She did an amazing job on my dress and was such a pleasure to work with. I needed a lot of work done - 3/4 length sleeves added, bustle, hem, and waist and bust taken in A TON. (The shop that I got my dress from made ...
me order one that was way too big.) I really started to hate the dress and cried every time I put it on. Shelly is a miracle worker!!!!!! She fixed my dress and was able to take it in over 6 inches and add the sleeves that I wanted. Shelly really made me feel beautiful in my dress again and I couldn’t be happier with my experience!!

Shelly was pleasant, prompt and made sure that most importantly I felt good with the fit of my dress. I just had my first child 6mths prior to my fitting and needless to say I had to order the dress 6wks postpartum so a lot of alterations had t...
o be made. Shelly altered the dress for me right up until the day of my travel plans- even while she was ill herself to ensure it’s perfection! She’s a very hard worker and these days it’s rare to find someone who cares so much about the people they are serving. Thank you Shelly- YOU ROCK! You will not be disappointed if you hire her!!

I just completed my last fitting! I purchased a dress that I fell in love with, but it was 3 sizes bigger than I usually get. Shelly totally transformed it and made it fit like a glove! The bustle is perfect as well. Every appointment was en...
joyable, and she was so patient with my family and I and so sweet herself! BONUS for my last fitting she let me invite my friends and family and we did a champagne toast to celebrate! All in all, such great service and even better alteration skill. Highly recommend!
