I can’t recommend BeFitted enough! From the first appointment they were so respectful and patient, I never felt rushed or unheard at my appointments. The dress fit like a glove and was the perfect length and the bustle was not too complicated. I made over an hour drive for them and it was WORTH IT!! Whether you have a small or large alteration job, the ladies at BeFitted will take care of you!!

The ladies at BeFitted are incredible knowledgeable and professional and had my rather complicated dress fitted, hemmed, and bustled to perfection. They were so helpful in answering questions, taking feedback, and getting my dress finished in time for the big day. Their tailoring style depends a little to much on flawless boob tape execution (which I never quite mastered, even for the big day) but I can't argue with the results. They also offer dress cleaning and preservation after-the-fact which I will be taking advantage of.

I almost couldn’t believe how easy this was! Shop is clean, well appointed, and my dress alterations were truly perfect. Product recommendations worked perfectly. My time in studio was fun and very efficient. It’s clear these ladies are THE experts! They mentioned they only do wedding dress tailoring and it’s obvious through the quality of their work and how they run so smoothly!

Genuinely the highlight of my wedding planning process! The nicest people, the most thorough tailoring job, and super helpful/informational throughout. I walked in knowing nothing and I left with a beautifully fitted dress and a clear idea of how to prep for the day-of. Definitely choose Befitted if you are looking for not only gorgeous and flawless alterations, but if you want a relaxing time and need some tips!

Rare instance of a vendor really living up to the hype! My dress looked perfect and the team was so kind and fun too. Appreciated the reminders and emails - they were on top of their game. I felt like I could really trust them as they tailor wedding gowns only. I will be recommending them to everyone I can! Their website is super clear and I felt like I knew what to expect. After a crazy experience dress shopping with my friends and family, I am glad I came solo to these dress appointments and that was the way to go - they helped me take pictures and get an idea of fit. Also got pictures of the bustle

Absolutely the best and they live up to the lovely experience people have described. I'm detail oriented and have a real appreciation for the craftsmanship of the work they do - my very complicated wedding gown came out PERFECT. I did their pressing service which made the actual day a piece of cake. Appreciated the bustle notes and packing tips as well. They also did an amazing job with cleaning after (I def spilled food all over my train, yikes) and it came back flawless with the boxing and preservation. I'm so glad I found them!

I had a great experience at BeFitted! We eloped and then had our reception three weeks later, and I wanted to have my dress cleaned in between. This was such a tight turnaround AND Thanksgiving was in the middle of all of this, but Michelle and Diane made it happen with time to spare! I really appreciated how stress-free they made the alterations and fitting process.

I can't speak more positively about Diane and Michelle at BeFitted Tailoring Co. I truly had the best experience getting my ballgown altered with them. Not only did they adjust my dress up a size, alter 10 layers of underskirt, and add a bustle, but they did so with kindness, precision, and professionalism. Most importantly, they helped me feel beautiful and confident on my day, and took extra steps to help prepare my dress for my destination wedding. I highly recommend them!

I am so thankful for Diane and Michelle! I was so happy to find this women and BIPOC-owned shop in Old Town Alexandria and they were both so kind, thoughtful, and skilled to work with. I had three dress fitting appointments for my wedding separates in which they added a bustle and cups, and adjusted length and size. They VERY kindly did rush alterations for me in the week before my wedding when I needed last-minute adjustments. I am SO grateful for their help and kindness which kept me feeling secure, beautiful, and confident to dance all night long on my wedding day! Thank you both for your beautiful and skilled craftmanship!

This could not have been a better experience. I had a crazy timeline (due to family circumstances, I had to dramatically shorten my wedding timeline, and come back home to Alexandria from New Zealand a week before the new wedding date). I had my dress tailored in New Zealand and unfortunately when they took in the hips they left it bunched and did not take out the extra fabric, just sewed it in. Be Fitted was wonderful in assessing what they would be able to do in a short time, and got it done in just a couple of days and it looked SO much better. I also paid for the steaming/prep service which revived my dress from its travel as carry-on all the way from New Zealand. I dropped my dress off after my wedding for cleaning & preservation because I know they'll do a great job with it too.

Cannot thank them enough for helping my dress fit fantastic. Very fair prices and absolutely worth it
