I do recommend getting alterations done at least 3 months before your wedding or other special event. However, life happens and that is not always possible. I will try to help you then too.

Bring the shoes to your fitting that you are going to wear with the dress! Yes it matters. Especially if you are getting a dress hemmed.

A treasured gift from Mother to Daughter.A family heirloom for many years to come. It is custom work and involves many hours of work.
We also do vintage bridal etc.

Corset backs
This is a corset back I added to a dress. I make a lot of corset backs. In some situations I can add side panels to make the dress fit better. If you are pregnant
and your dress won't zip a corset back is probably your best option depending on the dress style.
