I intended to drop off earlier in the week, but got busy and was able to schedule drop off again for the same day. I was at Kay's place for all of 20 minutes to try on the three pairs of pants I needed tailored. The price was also really reasonable! Cash only so be prepared for that, but overall highly recommend Kay's service.

My fiance was also looking to get some work done from here for her wedding dress, but was asked to bring half of the money without even an estimate for how much half would be. When she tried to get a little more info on cost, she was turned away. It's quite pathetic how many businesses in Wimberley just assume you're trash if you don't have a copious amount of disposable income at any given time. Would definitely recommend anyone else than Kays Alterations to actually provide decent customer service. Even to people who have spent their whole lives here.

This was a roller coaster ride! I guess I initially came in at a bad time. The ladies inside only…read morespoke Spanish. And it was pretty confusing on what was going on and if we were on the same page. Even with using Google translate. It was a lot of back and forth. All I wanted was for both sleeves to be adjusted. I told them the sleeves were tight. Gave them extra fabric. A yard of it to be safe. They cut the entire sleeve so I figured we were on the same page And they called telling me to come in again. I was hoping for the jacket to be done. It wasn't touched. They did measurements again. And sent me away. Which was frustrating because we did measurements already. And I was running out of time. It's also inconvenient because I don't live very close. So to have to make that drive for a two minute measurement redo. When I already did it day one was also frustrating. I came in on the last possible day for the jacket and the entirety of the sleeve was not done. They did some adjustments but not all. I told them it's still tight and I needed this jacket by today. They said they could get it done by end of day. Luckily they came through and the price wasn't bad at all! Only $25 for both sleeves. Believe me I am grateful. But I wish they didn't procrastinate the jacket. The fact it sat there for an entire week untouched when they said I'd get it sooner than my last possible date to get it wasn't good to see. It would be nice if they gave clearer communication on certain things. Like a timeline and price. I had no idea what I would be paying until it was time to pay. And that I was told I'd get it sooner than the 15. But it wasn't ready until the 15 and gave us little room for error.

Lady who owns this business is super nice BUT…read morei don't think she knows how to cut chiffon nor what kind of needle to use on different materials. I came to her two months before my wedding. All i needed is to change belt on my dress and shorten the length of my dress. as you can see on the bottom ( all of it had to be straight evenly cut), it was chopped , my dress was ruined. worst thing is that I find this out 2 weeks before my wedding. she tried to fix it but it was worthless. i needed a new dress . lady was nice and she paid me for my dress and money back for her work. but the price i bought my dress was 1/6 of what prices are on the market. because i bought my dress 8 month in advance when it wasn't wedding season. i was devastated.... would i recommend her a nice lady, yes , but not to fix any of my dresses again.

I don't think I've ever left a review for anyone, and I really hate that I'm having to leave a…read morenegative review, but I feel like I need to share my experience because this involved something completely irreplaceable--my mom's wedding dress. I brought the dress here to have it altered and updated for my own wedding. I was very clear about what I wanted, brought printed inspiration photos, and emailed the photos. Someone even responded to my email, yet whenever I referenced them during appointments, I was told they didn't have them and asked to send them again. My biggest concern was how quickly permanent changes were made without what felt like a clear plan. Cutting began almost immediately, and one of my favorite parts of my mom's original dress was cut off and removed. Whenever I expressed concern, I was repeatedly told the dress was a "work in progress" and that things had to be cut or removed. I tried to trust the process, but my concerns were often dismissed in a way that made me feel like I simply didn't understand alterations. As time went on, it felt like there was a separate "vision" for my dress that took priority over what I had actually requested. I was even told at one point that what I wanted would look "too casual." No notes seemed to be taken, things were pinned without explanation, and requests we had discussed were forgotten or never completed. One of my appointments was canceled, and when I eventually saw the dress again, essentially none of the changes I had requested had been made. Boning had been added despite the rest of the dress being nowhere near complete. When attempts were made to undo some of the changes, the dress was damaged even further. That was when I decided to take it back. I left in tears. I would not recommend this business for a sentimental garment, redesign, reconstruction, or complicated alteration. Based on my experience, I would only consider them for very small, straightforward alterations. What upsets me most is that I would have completely understood if I had simply been told that what I wanted was outside of their expertise. Instead, I was repeatedly reassured to trust the process, only to end up with irreversible changes to my mom's wedding dress. I am now having to find someone else to repair the damage just months before my wedding.

I just needed the dress hemmed, and told Lidia about the timeline. She said she could put a rush on it for a fee, which was reasonable, both in the idea and the price.

Wonderful service, definitely recommend!

If you want dirt cheap pricing - go somewhere else and keep your fingers crossed. What you pay for here is an expert's skill and time. I have brought no less than 9 dresses and 5 pairs of pants in the last 8 years, along with a handbag handle repair, and I have been extremely satisfied each time. He is in high demand, and while most of my tailoring jobs with Rivera Tailor have been done in days, don't expect an in-depth alteration (gown, for example) to be done overnight. Be sure to bring your stuff to him as soon as you know you need it! I delayed once on a maid-of-honor dress and he was not able to do it in my 3-week timeline - I think most tailors would have required close to 6-8 weeks for an in-depth tailoring job like a gown requires - so I was sorely disappointed when I got my maid of honor dress back from somewhere else because it was too tight. Some idiots on here are complaining about a quoted price because "In NYC..." - blah-blah-blah. If you're a cheapskate, just say that; don't take it out on this business.
