I am so, so, so incredibly happy I went with Alterations by Anna's Daughter to alter my wedding dress! When I bought my wedding dress, the shop gave me a list of possible places to do alterations in the area. After researching online and reading numerous positive reviews, I ultimately decided to go with Alterations by Anna's Daughter. Maria is the absolute best and so talented! She was so responsive, friendly, and organized. She had a schedule, and everything was mapped out for what needed to be done to my dress. I heard horror stories from my friends who had gone with other places, but I had zero stress - I knew my dress was in good hands with Maria, and it came out perfectly! There was an imperfection in the fabric at the bottom of my dress that both the bridal shop and I had missed when I picked up my dress (part of the design in the lace was missing). Maria found it and fixed it perfectly! You could never even tell there had been a mistake! Maria made my dress fit perfectly, and I will definitely be going back if I need any alterations in the future! You will not regret picking Maria from Alterations by Anna's Daughter! read more

Maria was an absolute pleasure to work with. I got married back in June 2018 and I was a little late on scheduling my dress alterations. I had asked friends in the area if they had any recommended place to go for alterations and one that would work rather quickly. A friend of mine recommended Maria and not only was she local- she made all the possible arrangements to squeeze me in for four appointments in just three months. She made my dress more of a dream than I could have ever imagined. It fit me like an absolute glove and the straps that I was so afraid I would play with all night, I didn't think twice about because she made sure they wouldn't be a bother to me. I can't thank Maria enough for being so selfless when it comes to doing what she loves. It absolutely made my alteration experience far better than I expected it to go. THANK YOU MARIA ! read more

Maria was amazing! I was so lucky to find her, she was referred to me be my dress shop. She was thorough in communication, which as a type A bride was so helpful in a vendor! She planned out all fittings and appts at the beginning, so I could add into my schedule right away. She was calming and friendly throughout. She took in my dress, and added in a band to help hold up the strapless dress, which was a big worry for me. She bustled the dress in a way I would never have thought of, to keep the structure and beauty of the dress. It was amazing, I highly recommend her. She also squeezed in one of my bridesmaids which was so great, and trained her on the bustle thoroughly so there would be no worries day-of. Prices were fair as well! Thank you so much Maria! read more

Maria is a GEM! I found her through a local Google search and was thrilled with my experience. Maria made alterations to my wedding dress and did a beautiful job. I had purchased a fairly simple crepe dress and needed a few small adjustments and some buttons added. She made each try on quick and easy, answered all of my millions of questions and even made some wonderful suggestions for other accessories I was crafting for our wedding day. She truly made me feel so special with each visit and made sure I was completely happy with the finished alterations. The dress was flawless! I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again for all of my future alteration needs! Thank you so much, Maria! read more

I have used Maria as well as my daughter's to have short and long gowns and dresses altered. I had 2 formal gowns and one more casual gown tailored for my 2 daughters wedding last year. Not only is Maria a consummate professional but she is also so pleasant and accommodating. Her sewing room is neat and tidy and private for changing. The alterations that were completed were just perfect! All the dresses fit perfectly and looked beautiful! She even gave tips on how to wear a very wide off the shoulder dress. It's easy to make appointments on Facebook or by phone. I highly recommend Maria for any alteration project you have. You won't be disappointed! read more

Maria was amazing and so accommodating my entire alterations process! She worked with me to create the most stunning bustle that stayed all night, and my dress fit perfectly. So grateful for her and her expertise; and such a bonus to be so close to so many wedding venues in NH! I've had so many friends say their alterations process was really impersonal/"one size fits all"with other seamstresses. That's NOT the case with Maria at all! She let me bring accessories to figure out my final look (and had some of her own to help with ideas!) and definitely worked WITH me to decide what/how we were going to alter on the dress. read more

We are two brides who just had our big day in August 2024. We absolutely LOVED working with Maria! She was fun, upbeat, excited for us, and obviously very skilled at what she does. She took on my wife and I's TWO wedding dresses and even helped out with my mom's dress and all the while helped to keep our two dresses a secret from one another! She was so organized, a great communicator and our dresses looked amazing. We felt so welcome and supported by her and especially as a lesbian couple, this meant the world to us. We couldn't have asked for a better person to work with and we highly recommend her. read more

Maria did an amazing job with alterations on my wedding dress. I was nervous to trust someone with my dress because of all the intricate beading and detail, but she did an incredible job. I didn't have a bustle, and went with a wrist ribbon tie, which added a classic, elegant touch. It held up perfectly, and she helped my dress fit like a glove. She was flexible with scheduling/pricing, and she also did the alterations on my daughters flower girl dress. Appointments were fun, I always enjoyed seeing her, and she made me feel like a queen on my special day. I wouldn't recommend anyone else! read more

Maria is just, the BEST. The alterations she has done for me have always been perfection, and everything fits like it was actually, made for my body. She has tackled delicate work on my wedding dress, and also made my less-formal dresses fit like a glove. I eloped this winter and while I had no date, no venue, no information of any kind, other than my dress, she was able to get me in and make sure my dress fit and flowed, beautifully. I can't wait to have something that does fit right again, just so I can have an excuse to call her up and book another appointment! THANK YOU MARIA!!!! read more

Maria did an incredible job on my wedding dress. I could not have asked for it to look and fit better. She made sure that it fit like a glove!! The whole experience was stress-free. She is kind, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. Maria was so kind to include my mother, and some bridesmaids got their dresses done as well. It made the appointments an overall fun experience! Maria is now my go-to for all of my alteration needs! I cannot thank Maria enough for her wonderful work. She made my dress fit my body perfectly! I cannot recommend her enough! Nicole read more

Maria is the BEST and I couldn't have asked for a better seamstress. She is so meticulous with her work, always going above and beyond. Maria is also incredibly comforting to be around, making the process even better. In addition to my wedding dress alterations, I wanted to add a tulle train. She took my idea and made it even better, I was stunned by how beautiful the end product was. My mother also had her dress altered by Maria and everything came out absolutely fantastic. Maria is hands down the best seamstress around and I highly recommend her!! read more

Maria of Alterations by Anna's Daughter is absolutely AMAZING! she made my dress fit me like a glove, hemmed and handsewed on intricate lace patterns without butchering the design. As a larger lady I can't stand my arms and she not only sewed in these sleeves I found, but used extra lace from the hem job to make the sleeves more cohesive to the dress! I cannot recommend her enough! sleeves: https://www.etsy.com/listing/769034332/removable-sleeves-detachable-sleeves read more

Maria is perfect! She took my dress, made it fit me perfectly, and worked miracles with all the different layers and appliques. My dress had a thick, screen door type of material and she worked with it like a charm. She is a perfectionist in all the best ways and reworked my bustle until it held all the right way. I would definitely recommend Maria to anyone looking for someone to alter their wedding dress, but be sure to book early because she gets very busy! read more
