Heather made my wedding dress dreams come true! I found my perfect dress but it needed a few little tweaks to make it just right for my big day. Heather used the extra material from train to add sleeves to my dress to make it a little more seasonably appropriate for a March wedding in upstate NY. Heather was so easy to work with and made me feel so comfortable at all of my fittings. Thank you Heather!!!

I had my dress altered by Heather for my wedding this fall, and she did an amazing job. As a shorter bride who was lucky enough to find a beautiful sample dress from Blue Sky Bridal PDX, there was a lot of excess fabric and more alterations than I expected to make it tailored to me. Heather made all the right decisions to achieve this. She was incredibly attentive to detail, willing to make even the smallest adjustments that ultimately made the biggest difference. Heather and her team were also so accommodating and a pleasure to work with—from scheduling to every appointment. They made the whole process both fun and easy. They even recorded a bustle video for me and gave great advice on how to care for the dress in case of spills. I absolutely loved my dress, and Heather took such great care of it, making me love it even more. So many people were wowed by it! Highly recommend taking your wedding dress here if you want a comfortable and quality experience.

My dress turned out beautiful! Everyone here was so helpful and knowledgeable about there craft. We had to hem ALOT off the bottom and there is floral decor they had to move up. They really took the time for the extra details. They also weren't out to just try and charge me as much as possible which I really appreciated because weddings are expensive! They worked around my budget and did a great job. I would highly recommend!

Heather altered my wedding last Fall for our December 2023 wedding. I can't say enough good things about my experience with her and the shop. My dress needed to be shortened quite a bit, brought in, along with a few other alterations and my veil needed to be shortened as well. She laid out my options for the various alterations and truly listened to what I wanted. By my second try-on my dress was perfect and fit me like a glove.

Heather was amazing, I don’t usually wear dresses often so I was stressed about the wedding. She put me at ease and made alterations an awesome experience. Thank you to the team!

Bought a sample gown more than 3 sizes too large for my wedding ~3 months out. Heather talked me through alterations options, pros & cons, and costs to help me make informed decisions and then worked absolute magic to make everything perfect! She did stunning work on a dress with extremely delicate all-over sheet lace, intricate beading on the straps that had to be taken out and redone, as well as the usual hemming, bustle points, etc. and was even finished earlier than expected. Thanks for helping make it a great day!

From scheduling to picking up my dress, the gals at Alterations By Heather were incredible and really went out of their way to make sure I had a positive experience altering my wedding dress. During my initial fitting, they were kind, listened to what I wanted, and made sure I was 100% happy with the changes before tackling them. The result was a beautiful dress that fits me like a glove. The work is top-notch and they were super fast, too! I’m so appreciative!

Working with the ladies at Alterations By Heather was a breeze. They altered my wedding dress and did a fantastic job! I told them that my fiancé was a swing dancer and that I would love to be able to dance with him at our wedding. Heather accomplished just that! We were able to dance all day 🥰
