So this review is a long time coming, but I wanted to have some 'After' pics to show off,…read moreunfortunately the official photos are still pending so audience photos will have to do. I originally reached out to Ada and a few other businesses in June to get my 'pre-wedding' (aka small, unofficial family-only ceremony) dress altered for September; it needed to be properly fitted, hemmed, and at the last minute I wanted to see if pockets could be added. Ada got back to me within a few days where some others never did and her prices were by far the best; she quoted me at a little more than $200 when the boutique I got the dress at estimated ~$800 and another business quoted me ~$500. The timeline for alterations was also significantly better which I later realized was because this is a small business where she can spend dedicated time working on the project. In total, from first fitting to final fitting, it was just a week as everything was perfect and fortunately I didn't need any later fittings as my size didn't change over the following months before the ceremony (I did try the dress back on at multiple points just in case). Overall she made the process comfortable and easy which was so nice because I was definitely an anxious bride. I hope to be able to go to her again in the future for general alterations and possibly again for my big, official wedding next year once I find that second dress! Thank you so much Ada! (and sorry it's taken me so long to review!)

Chi was so kind from my first call - she never made me feel bad about coming to her in such a time crunch, and offered very reasonable alteration rates! From our first appointment, it was clear that Chi is an expert at her craft and is passionate about her work. She really cares about her brides and making sure we look and feel our best!! When I first received my dress, the neckline looked way different from when I tried on the store sample - Chi took a look at the original pics I had, and helped get the neckline back to the look I loved. In addition to the alterations, which were masterfully done, Chi offered some much appreciated wedding day wisdom that covered little details I would have missed otherwise. I would recommend Chi to any and every bride in the area. She does phenomenal work, and is such a sweet person!

Hope you're doing well ;)…read more The wedding was a huge success, and everyone -- including me -- was absolutely stunned at how incredible my dress turned out at our destination wedding in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. With that said... I'm sharing a few photos from when I was doing my alterations with you at your home to the actual wedding day. Seeing the transformation makes me even more grateful for your talent. Your work was truly stunning. My dress fit me like a glove -- honestly, even better than I ever imagined it would. You did an exquisite job, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I absolutely loved working with you. You're so knowledgeable, kind, patient, professional, and incredibly detail-oriented... just like me ;) I felt so confident and beautiful, and that's all thanks to you. With so much gratitude, Astrid P.S. David absolutely LOVED the little embroidered detail you put inside my dress with my new last name

This is the only place I have ever been to that does NOT list the price you will be paying once you pick up the garments. Kind of Strange. Second they do not accept American Express which is ok but still inconvenient for some. The dry cleaning is fairly well but the tailoring could be improved. Overall not a bad place at all. A few tweaks and I believe they could def become significantly better!!

I would not recommend this cleaners to anyone. I brought in a garment that they had altered only…read moresix months ago because the original repair did not hold up. From the moment I dropped it off, the woman assisting me was rude, rushed, and visibly annoyed. What stood out most was how quickly her attitude shifted when two customers who were not people of color walked in. The difference in treatment was hard to ignore. Despite my discomfort, I still left my romper for what should have been a simple sewing repair. We even safety pinned the exact area needing alteration, and I provided my full name and phone number. Three weeks later, I returned to pick it up only to be told that my information and alteration request were never saved. I was confused by this information since I watched her "entering my details" while present. The only reason he was even able to locate my garment was because I found my ticket and provided the ticket number myself. The seamstress/owner then stated they had no record of what needed to be done, and no one ever contacted me during the entire three weeks they had my garment. The employee who originally helped me claimed she "didn't know" what the request was, despite pinning the exact area herself and my asking her to have the seamstress call me with the estimated price. The entire situation was unprofessional, dismissive, and honestly upsetting. Based on the rude treatment, lack of accountability, and complete disregard for my time and belongings, I genuinely left feeling that prejudice played a role in how I was treated. To make matters worse, the person assisting me at pickup showed no concern whatsoever when I expressed my frustration. I will not be returning and would not recommend supporting this business.

A month later, I still get the run around of their losing one of my pants. Why am I writing this…read morereview , it isn't so much because of the lost pants, it is how they are handling it. I have been back 5 times and I just get the run-around. A month ago I dropped 3 pants of, I was returned 2 that were mine, and a larger/different color one. I stated - this large grey one is not mine. I gave my name and phone number, I've been back 5 times. What have I been told by the same female employ, you the reader pick which one you find most unacceptable: 1) well we can fix the wrong one to fit you (so, um, wonder about the original owner of those pants?) 2) leave me your other two pants and we will look for the missing one (the only thing the missing pants have in common with my other two is they are black, not same brand 3) when I went to get my two pants back, they were reluctantly returned to me 4) one week I'm told, come back on Thursday, the owner can decide what to do. I come on a Thursday the owner is not there 5) I come back the following week, "I have to tell the owner about your missing pants." (so owner hasn't been told) 6) I asked - why don't you launder my next order of pants for free as compensation - I got silence, no reply. 7) I asked - how do you guys handle this? Silence, no answer.
