Bridal Heirloom by Alice Schafer

ep in the process of altering the gown to compliment my frame. She was quick and efficient and I was amazed at her handiwork. She is a true artist. I highly recommend Alice!

e explaining all of her suggestions, and what the process would look like. She even suggested to use a crochet hook for my mom to loop the buttons on the back, which ended up working out beautifully. She was very clear on her Invoice of each charge and an explanation for each alteration. Alice was extremely personable and very easy to work with! She also communicated very quickly and put me on her schedule right away. I couldn't recommend her more!

looked the same but was able to alter it to make sure it fit just right. She was patient with teaching us how to do the bustle and how to make the train flow just right. I would definitely recommend her.

as able to interpret everything into a beautiful dress. During the pandemic i was fearful of trying on floor samples and wanted avoid interaction between strangers as much as possible. Alice came like a heaven sent and even accommodated our first meeting via zoom. She is by far the best experience ive had in this whole wedding planning process. I knew my dress was in good hands from the first day we met and i would recommend her to anyone who will listen.

until your dress is exactly how you want it. I also threw her a curveball by adding a white jumpsuit to be tailored and she took on the project without hesitation. My jumpsuit was too small and I didn’t know it was possible to make it fit, she made it work and it fits like a glove! Stop reading reviews, just go see her. She is a sweetheart and will make you feel like a princess.

olio speaks for itself, and I can't wait to see my dress when it's finished.

service me. I had originally found 3 cleaners/alterations places in the Valley and made appointments. All 3 were unfriendly and I felt like a number and not a person. It also felt like a factory environment which is NOT what I wanted for my wedding dress alterations. When I found Bridal Heirloom after thinking to look at The Knot to find another option, I was optimistic as Alice was very quick to respond and very friendly via email. When I met her to get a free consultation, I was so impressed with her professionalism as well as personal touches she adds to the consultation. There was beautiful wedding music playing in the background that made me feel so excited for my big day. She also made me feel very comfortable and safe during our meeting and I was so happy I found her. After our consultation, she sat me down and gave me a detailed explanation of what alterations she would be making and the exact charges. This was also helpful, as there were no financial surprises I would be expecting. Alice's pricing was more than fair and I felt extremely comfortable to have her alter my designer dress. (Which by the way has beading, lace, and embellishments throughout the ENTIRE dress). Alice also steams the dress and puts it in a garment bag which is so helpful for me as my wedding is in Puerto Rico. On my second fitting, I brought my detachable skirt for her to add reinforced buttons. She again gave me great pricing and will steam the skirt as well. I cannot recommend Bridal Heirloom/Alice enough. Alice is everything I was hoping for in a professional to help me with this very important dress and day. I even asked her if she does other clothing alterations as I want to use her again in the future for other needs! Photos to come soon after my big day!!!

t Alice and she was very helpful in suggestions to alter my dress besides the hem. Alice's price to hem and alter my dress were very reasonable. I would highly recommend Alice for alterations for an important event.

responsive, patient, and skilled at what she does. Since meeting Alice and having several dress fittings she has brought my vision to life and changed my dress into exactly what I was hoping for. She is very experienced and professional as she has worked in the bridal industry for nearly 10 years. In addition, she has reasonable prices that can fit into your budget. If you are thinking of working with Alice, I highly recommend her. She is even altering several of my bridesmaid dress as well as my mom's!

grateful for her flexibility and determination to get a gown for me that I truly loved and on time! Highly recommend!
