Thank you!

Beatrice is amazing at what she does. If you are looking for high quality work, this is the place in Austin that I would recommend. It is all about the dress with her and she delivers. She totally transformed my dress into what I had envisioned when I purchased it. Her work is not cheep but worth every penny.

Exceptional Business

I want to thank Beatrice at Alterations and Veils for all of her hard work and putting up with me weeks before my wedding! I was on a time crunch from the day I purchased my wedding dress to the day of my wedding. I called several places in town and not one place I called could work with my time line so you can imagine my joy when Beatrice said she would help me and not to worry, "just come right in" is what she said. My husband is in the military and it was very important that my dress be altered in time since he would only be in town the weekend of the wedding! Beatrice was prompt, thorough, and a perfectionist! I was literally in tears the day of my pre fitting, my dress looked gorgeous and all I wanted was for it to be perfect on my wedding day. As we started talking about my veil (which I had not purchased yet), Beatrice said that she could actually custom make a veil to match my dress. I wasn't aware her talent extended beyond just alterations. She showed me custom dresses and veils that she had actually made and it really made me happy knowing I chose her business. After a few weeks, I had my final fitting along with my new custom veil and I couldn't be happier with the results! After my wedding and everything was settled, I took my dress back to Beatrice and she had it preserved for me. It's now in a beautiful box where I can admire it for years to come. Thank You so much Beatrice for all your hard work and getting my dress and veil done in time for my big day. I highly recommend Beatrice, her expertise is unmatched in the Austin area.

Best consultation experience!

Had the most amazing consultation! Beatrice was so kind listened to all my concerns and really understood what I was envisioning. She was very confident she could achieve my dream dress alterations. I've done my research and was tired of being told oh you can't do this or that we have to do it this way. Not with Beatrice she listens to what you are wanting to alter takes in to consideration your concerns with my particular case it was all the beading on my dress. She was the first woman I met who actually responded to me confidently about altering my dress. I have no doubt it my mind my dress will be anything less than perfect! Can't wait for the final product!

**UPDATE***

Happily married, and had the most amazing day ever! My dress was absolutely breathtaking and way beyond any expectations I could have dreamed up. Beatrice completely transformed my dream dress into my perfect fit. It literally fit me like a glove! And if my big day couldn’t have already been more magical than I ever imagined her husband performed the most amazing ceremony ever! I couldn’t have asked for more perfect words to be spoken on the most important day of my life! Thank you again for everything I truly feel blessed!

Fast, Reliable & Skilled!

Beatrice did an AMAZING job altering my dress! I ordered my dress online for my COVID micro wedding and it came in WAY too tight. I called Beatrice less than a month before my wedding and she was able to let out the dress and make it look absolutely perfect for my day. She saw me weekly for fittings at times that were convenient for me- she was incredible! Thank you Beatrice!

Beatrice is awesome!

I bought my dress and it didn’t fit, at all. I took it to Beatrice with several months before my wedding and she assured me she could make it work.

Beatrice let me come for several fittings, and was always a joy to be around! My dress turned out better than I could have imagined. She added a pocket (!!!) for me, AND it fits!!!

We had to reschedule our May reception due to COVID, but I wore my dress for our wedding ceremony and am so excited I get to wear it a second time in October. Beatrice rocks!!!

Talented, Detailed, Accomplished and Accommodating!

Beatrice is amazing. I did my homework and made multiple calls before coming to her with my dress and alteration needs. She is a busy woman, and for good reason! She still made time for me to be incredibly kind, patient and thorough to discuss a plan for altering my dress to make it perfect for my big day. She has been very communicative, compromising and accommodating through every step of the process, and I see her as a true friend now while getting to know here through every step! I can't wait to get married to the love of my life, in this beautiful dress that fits me like a glove. I very highly recommend going to Beatrice!! If I could give 10 stars I would! A+++

Bippity Boppity Beatrice!!

Beatrice was my fairy godmother, she not only created a wedding dress that went beyond the dress of my dreams, but she also crafted an exquisite custom design on my daughter's flower girl dress using the appliques from my own dress alterations. She was a dream to work with, she was always prompt to respond, was extremely knowledgable and an expert in her field, and truly listened to all of my concerns. Though she had dozens of dresses in her shop and tons of clients, she made me feel like I was her only customer and that my dress was just as important to her as it was to me. There are a lot of alterations options in central Texas but if your gown is extremely important to you and you are looking for quality work crafted by a professional with over 30 years of experience, there is only one Beatrice!

Best in Austin!

Beatrice is AMAZING at what she does. Long story short, I had a custom made, very expensive wedding dress, that when it arrived, was entirely a poor fit. The torso was too short, the back was too high, etc. It was a nightmare. Beatrice was able to work with the store and designer from which I ordered my dress in order to get more fabric so that she could work her magic. Beatrice worked with me almost right up until the day of the wedding to make sure the dress was perfect. My dress had so many details and a corset on the inside. Beatrice was able to make it perfect. She was also able to open up the back of the dress, as I really wanted a deeper back. Without Beatrice, I would've been disappointed with how my dress looked. Beatrice always made me feel like a beautiful princess when I was in her studio. I owe her a million thanks for making my dream dress a reality! PS- Her husband is also a sweetheart and was able to deliver my dress to the hotel on my wedding day
