Bridal Gowns Alteration Specialists

Professional Alterations

Judith’s Boutique will perform professional alterations on your Bridesmaid dresses, special occasion, and Wedding Dresses at a fair price! We are committed to quality work for all your alteration needs.

For the bridesmaid and special occasion dresses, the minimum charge is $75.00. I must look at the Gown on you for me to give you the accurate price for the service you need.

You come in with your dress shoes and undergarments with your first fitting.

Note: This is also applied to wedding gown fitting.

This fitting will last 25-30 minutes. Usually, it takes two to four fittings, depending on how drastic we will change your Gown. The price is per item, as listed on the work order. Anything else you want to change later that doesn’t include in the work order must carry additional charges.

After pinning your Gown at the bodice, you must maintain your weight so, when you come back, the Gown will fit you as well as I pinned it on you.

After the final fitting, if you gain weight or vice versa, I must charge you for redoing the works.

You come to me to make you look your best in your Gown. So, my main focus is to make you look beautiful. However, I do not know how you feel. It is your responsibility to tell me about your feeling.

Honesty is always my best policy. The information on what you want to change is essential. That is why I wrote everything and went over it with you to ensure that we covered everything you needed before giving me your credit card.

If there is anything that you do not like about your Gown resulting from my alterations, you must tell me, and you must not take your Gown out from my shop.

The wedding gowns alteration minimum is 250.00, depending on the details of the garment and the redesigning I  will create.

I will redesign your vintage dress to build the top of strapless Gown. Such are those for the  Muslim and Mormon ceremony weddings.

I can’t give you the price on alteration without looking at your Gown on you. It will take  2-3 months to get the gowns alteration completed most of the time. I do emergency alterations if needed. It will help if your Gown is aisle ready three weeks before your wedding.

I always have a lot of clients’ gowns to work on, especially in wedding season, and the availability of my services are first-come, first-serve bases.

Please make an appointment.

Note: I work by appointment only.
