I cannot say enough good things! She was the seamstress who worked on my wedding dress. She bustled it, hemmed it, brought in the corset, gave me little off the shoulder sleeves, in a tighter timeframe. (10 weeks ish) It was everything I wanted for an affordable price -- I was quoted about 500 dollars more than that and told it was impossible by another well-reputable seamstress in the area. When I put on my dress I wasn't sure if I loved it, but after she did the alterations, it literally was my dream dress. That being said, some downsides. The communication could be better at this establishment for sure. No one answers the phone and when they do, you cannot get through. My dress was delayed by a day (I went in person to pick it up) and no one let me know. Aurora does not speak English so we communicated primarily through Google Translate and the owner translating over the phone. But she is very patient and accomodating, and due to just how beautiful a job she did I would go back. If you do choose to go here, I'd really focus on hammering out communication as best you can -- I hope that this business can get communication figured out because they are a gem!

I went in to tailor my dress so it sat on me just right. The first try on it needed further adjustment, so I left it another time. When I picked it up I was satisfied with the results, but for the price I’m unsure if I’ll go back again. Very friendly people who run it and convenient location though!

I went here to get a bridesmaids dress tailored and when I went in only one person was there who did not speak English which would have been fine except the price was not communicated to me and nothing on the website or when I called seeing if they had availability suggested that I wouldn’t be able to communicate with anyone there. It costs almost $200 which was twice as much as the dress I paid for was and on top of that the stitching ripped the first time I tried it on at home. When I called seeing who I could discuss fixing it with as I don’t feel that I should have to pay extra since for fixing the rip they told me the owner wouldn’t be back until February. I had to leave to attend the wedding in a different state and attempt to see the hole back together myself. Disappointed to say the least

I had a skirt I needed to be taken in prior to a trip. I was on a time crunch around the holidays. I went on a Monday around 5:30. The woman there only spoke Spanish, but was very kind and we were able to make it work. The skirt was ready two days later. The timing was perfect!
