I purchased a large sample dress and took it to TK Bridal for alterations where I had a terrible and long experience that resulted in a dress unsuitable for a wedding. My alteratio...ns took 6 months and my dress still wasn't finished. Every appointment, I was told next time it would be finished and it never was. There were many imperfections that were over looked by the seamstress and would never have been fixed if I didn't fight for it. At the end of the process, my dress had a crooked skirt, fraying seams, crooked buttons, and was still too big. The worst part is that I couldn't even tell how bad it was until I left because the dressing rooms are so dark, small, and dirty with low ceilings, harsh lighting, and bad mirrors. I do realize that altering such a large sample dress to my size was a big undertaking, but they should have been upfront with me to begin with as I had no idea what I was getting into. With only a partial refund, I am now searching for a new wedding dress less than 3 weeks before my wedding.
