I wish I could give more than 5 stars. This is the best place to go for wedding dress alterations! I absolutely cannot recommend Ceris ENOUGH. She kindly did my wedding dress alterations and did the most phenomenal job. Out of my whole wedding planning, this has been the easiest and most pleasant part of it because Ceris has been a dream to work with. She really went above and beyond to make my dress look sensational. Thank you so much! ❤️

Ceris was really easy to work with and has a professional set up which makes booking her services incredibly easy. She took great care with a sample sale dress that needed taking in significantly, as well as repairing a veil and overskirt, and had great attention to detail. It was a relaxing and positive experience and would definitely recommend Ceris

I used Ceris when I needed an off the peg Bridesmaid dress altered to fit my awkward body - she was an absolute magician and I felt a million dollars thanks to her and received many compliments on the dress which fit perfectly. Highly recommend

I recently got married and after purchasing my wedding dress, I was recommended Ceris to make the alterations. I was over the moon with the recommendation! She provided such an excellent service. She is so personable, very professional and nothing was too much trouble. I can’t recommend her enough to future brides and anyone needing alterations made!
