Mary is wonderful at what she does! I’ve trusted her with altering dress pants, bridesmaids dresses, and even now my own wedding dress and all have turned out how I was hoping. She makes the experience so comfortable with try-ons and she has a funny sense of humor! Thank you Mary!
Mary is amazing! I wanted to alter my grandmothers wedding dress for my rehearsal dinner and it was better than I ever imagined!
Mary is the best! She altered my wedding dress perfectly, and she is so sweet. So so talented! The results are exactly what I wanted.
We planned our wedding in about 3 months which meant I was on a TIGHT timeline to find a dress.

We planned our wedding in about 3 months which meant I was on a TIGHT timeline to find a dress. The dress that I ended up picking was incredibly detailed and I had to get it off the rack which meant I needed quite a few alterations. Mary absolutely exceeded my expectations and made my dress literally fit like a glove in about a one month time frame. She was so kind and eased the nerves I had about how big my dress originally was on me and my tight schedule. I couldn’t recommend Mary enough for any of your wedding dress needs. She was a life saver for me!
Miri is just simply the best!!! I got my bridal alterations from her for my wedding day, and she was amazing!🤍🤍
I can’t thank Miri enough for the perfect job she did on my wedding dress alterations. I look forward to working with her again in the future!
Mary is a RARE talent! After a terrible first alterations experience elsewhere left my wedding dress in rough shape, she completely restored it — and honestly restored my excitement for the dress too. She genuinely cared about making it look beautiful and making me feel confident in it. In a world where so much feels rushed, her craftsmanship, kindness, and attention to detail gave me so much peace of mind. I will always be grateful for her.
Mary is absolutely amazing at alterations. I take everything to her because I know the work will always be done perfectly and with incredible attention to detail. Most recently, she altered prom dresses for my daughter and her friend, and they both looked absolutely beautiful. Mary is talented, professional, and truly takes pride in her work. I can’t recommend her enough!
Mary did an excellent job altering my daughter’s prom dress. Mary made the dress a perfect it. Thank you🩵
