Lee did a fantastic job altering my wedding dress! She even took the time to fix some small things I noticed after I picked up my dress. I’m recommending her to all my engaged friends! Thanks Lee!
Lee was awesome. She walks you through options head to toe and her work product is great. Although I didn’t compare prices, I found her to be a great value for the quality of the work. I highly recommend Lee for your wedding dress alterations!
I was lucky enough to be introduced to Lee through my sister, and unknowingly purchased a dress that looked simple but was secretly hiding tons of layers that needed taming to fit correctly. We giggled at the weird design, worked together to fi...
nd the right solutions to the challenges we uncovered and made really solid suggestions that made a world of difference when the day finally came!

you options (for things like bustle types, hem, cups), and patiently help you determine what is best for you. She has a calming presence that put me at ease, and she really takes the time to make sure you're comfortable. Also, my 'something borrowed' was my aunt's (early '80s) veil, and Lee modified that beautifully for a more contemporary look. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Lee to any brides in the area!
I cannot say enough incredible things about Lee!!!! Lee is so personable, kind & honest. I am a very particular person and was initially worried about my dress fitting. However, the moment I met Lee I was instantly relieved. She pays such close...
attention to detail and is extremely knowledgeable/talented. There were specific alterations that I wanted and Lee made my vision come to life! I can honestly say that her work exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Lee and can assure you that you're in good hands.
Lee is a craftswoman. She really understood how my dress was made, how it would sit on me, and therefore had exert opinions on what needed to be altered for it to fit and look right. She was easy to work with and flexible.
Lee is AMAZING!!!!
First of all, I just want to say that getting my dress fitted was an emotional experience for me, as I struggle with having all eyes on me in a showy number. Lee made me feel SO beautiful and confident. My dress fit like a gl...
ove.
I have extremely sensitive skin and upon my final fitting, the original straps of my dress scratched me badly causing hives. I was SO NERVOUS I would be red and in pain all day; but Lee took my dress home and remade... yes REMADE my straps in a different fabric and beaded it so it looked the the original in one evening! That saved my wedding day and really made me feel so special (sans hives).
I truly recommend Lee to anyone who needs their dress fitted and also needs a little pep talk to boost their confidence!! Thank
you, Lee!!!

This is very sweet. So glad I could replace the straps, sensitive skin is no joke.

or my dress. (Train length, lace placement, bustle, etc.) Thanks to her my wedding dress for me perfectly and I cannot wait to wear it in just a few weeks. I cannot recommend her highly enough! If there is any doubt about who to trust your dress with, Lee is your person.
Lee did an amazing job with my dress and making me feel extremely comfortable in it. Due to COVID we changed our wedding date a few times and she was more than willing to accommodate each and every change! She was fun to work with and would hi...

Lee was the absolute BEST to work with during all of the many changes that occurred for our wedding for 2020. I had originally scheduled with Lee for my original dress and when plans began to change I had found a different dress that I felt was...
more fitting for our mini wedding, Lee graciously took on working on this second dress for me during all of the craziness that 2020 had sent our way. Lee was the most calm spirit during this process, she was prompt to respond and her work was incredible. She not only made me feel absolutely beautiful as she made my second hand gown fit like a glove, but she also made me feel the excitement that I had originally felt when trying on wedding dresses. I couldn’t have asked for a greater experience and I cannot wait to work with her again for my 2021 reception dress!! I have already recommended Lee to other brides especially COVID brides who need a little sense of calm in their experience. Thank you Lee for the wonderful experience.
(If there was an option for more than 5 stars, I’d give them all to Lee!)

raziness. Timely, professional, and skilled!
During my fittings I wasn’t sure if my June wedding was happening let alone if I’d be able to wear my dress. Lee was very encouraging and addressed all my concerns. She tailored the dress to fit me perrrfectly and had some great advice about train length that met my preferences. She even helped my decision on wearing it for the casual backyard covid wedding instead of waiting until next year. I am SO glad I took her advice.
Lee’s alterations for my wedding gown were perfect. I bought a strapless dress and wanted to add straps to it but hadn’t ordered the matching material in time. Lee found material that matched and created beautiful straps. When I went in for my...

My wedding was in April of 2019. I had chosen a wedding dress from Bliss Bridal and wanted to put some bling around the upper part of the dress, The dress also was a little long and because it had layers of horsehair it was a delicate job to ...
do. Lee Dumas was the seamstress that did the work. Lee was professional and friendly. She listened to what I wanted and made suggestions that were things I had never thought of. Her work is impeccable and every detail is thought of and done with perfection. She added bling around the bust line of my dress and understood that I wanted it to stop under my arms so they wouldn’t be rubbing against it all night causing me discomfort. Somehow Lee managed to put the bling on and have it stop by the underarms, yet looked like it continued into the dress.
She also was able to hem my dress with the horsehair layers and still have my veil (with the layers also) match when I walked down the aisle. The effect was beautiful. Any little thing I requested (a small stitch in the front, to put loops for my bling belt so it would stay at my waist), she did. It was more than her being a great seamstress (which she is), it was her positive attitude and the ”little touches” she provided that showed what a great professional she is and how passionate she is about making every bride look their best!
I had her alter a bridesmaid dress for me. Not only did she work an exceptional amount of magic to make it fit me (I’d gained 10lbs since buying it and it was form fitting to start) she did it while boosting my confidence. Which was no mean fe...
at, I did NOT feel confident in that dress till she’d finished with it. She was fast, professional, reasonably priced and charming. I will absolutely be coming to her for anything I need altered forever.
My. Gown. Was. Perfect. Obviously, I was in love with my dress having purchased it, but off the rack it was ill fitting and slouchy. Once Lee was finished with it, it was a one of a kind masterpiece that made me feel like a svelte goddess (btw:...
I’m not that, but you couldn’t have told me so while I was wearing that gown!) I’ve never been more pleased or impressed with someone’s craftsmanship and understanding of their art. Lee was honest with me while still displaying incredible listening skills and a divine controlled skill of her sewing craft. Thank you, Lee! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
