Gizzelle James Couturiere

was quoted a range of $500 - $800 for alterations. Her reviews were wonderful, so I thought we would be in good hands. Several reviews mentioned how special the brides were made to feel. That was not our experience. On our first visit, after waiting an hour past our appointment time which was the case for every visit, the dress was pinned by one of Gizelle's seamstresses. It was difficult to communicate with her due to a language barrier. At the end of the appointment, we were told alterations would be $1300. I should have followed my gut and found another seamstress but after being told how booked everyone was due to 2022 being such a busy wedding year, I was afraid we would not find anyone else in time. We had 4 more appointments over the course of 3 1/2 months and each one was stressful because whenever we tried to give feedback about something needed on the dress, we were cut off and told 'Don't worry about it'. At one point, midway through the process, Gizelle lost her temper and told me off. I had already paid for half of the alterations and she had the dress so I felt like I needed to just keep my cool and get the dress done. The most stressful part was when we went to what was supposed to be our last appointment 10 days before the wedding, the dress was not ready. We had to come back 3 days before the wedding to get the dress not knowing if it would be done in time. In the end, the dress looked beautiful on my daughter but I would not recommend Gizelle due to the cost of the alterations, her rude demeanor and the stressful alterations experience.

perfectly and I felt so beautiful in the finished product. Their services are definitely pricier, but I truly felt I got what I paid for. Gizzelle and her team were also so lovely- scheduling was seamless and Gizzelle really took her time with each appointment to ensure perfection in all alterations.
