Quick and easy!

I brought my bridal gown here to be preserved. They were friendly and quick! I got my dress back sooner than expected. They gave me specific instructions to keep my gown in good condition. I appreciated their attention to detail and taking good care of my beloved wedding dress.

I have never been more pleased with ANY COMPANY!! They are so professional, kind, and make you feel so special. They remember small details about your day and are the most caring vendors I have ever worked with. I will continue to brag about them to anyone and everyone. Thank you both for all your hard work! He spent hours cleaning the weeds ( farm wedding) out of my big dress and she sewed my dads ( Who passed away) patch inside my wedding dress. They are so detailed and do not cut corners with anything.

Callahan's was the perfect choice for us. If you do a package of so many groomsmen, ushers, father of the bride/groom then you get the groom's tux for free. Thank the lord for small favors because every little penny counts. The men in the wedding didn't pay too much either, I believe each tux was about $134 a piece which is the lower we could find. My husband really want the shawl tux and they were able to give him exactly what he wanted. He was a little annoyed about the vest being too short but he should have been more vocal about that in the fittings but he let the guy talk him into the slight shorter vest.

Callahan's provided amazing service for dress alterations and preservation. They are reasonably priced, easy to work with, and my dress looked better than I could have imagined after Ruth was done with it. I highly recommend choosing Callahan's!

I went to Callahan's to have my wedding dress preserved. I wanted the best in gown preservation for my dress, and that is what I got out of Callahan's. They were polite and had unparalleled customer service. When I picked my dress up it was absolutely gorgeous. Not only did they get all the stains out (and there were plenty), they had it preserved beautifully in a white box.

THE MOST AMAZING ALTERATIONS!! My dress was absolutely perfect for me. Ruth re-built and re-designed it. She had to fix the all the seams in the font and the back, hem it, change the bust, add the belt.. AND she created the most unique bubble bustle...AND added 100+ silk buttons all the way down the back. Fit like a glove. I could not have imagined anything better. THANK YOU!

We used Callahan's Tuxedo to dress our wedding party for our wedding. The tuxedo's fit the guys great, pants hemmed perfect, everyone's sleeves were the right length and the tie color matched the girls dresses. We worked with the owners Ruth and Rick and they made the whole experience very easy. We did shop the mall and found Callahan's prices lower and the service was excellent. They even picked up the tuxedo's from the hotel were the wedding party was staying, great service that was free.
Ruth even pressed my wedding gown and veil before the wedding.

Ruth is an amazing woman, and very professional. We took my Maid of Honor dress to her, it had to be taken in, and we didn't need it back until August 01, 2013. Ruth had it done and returned to us by July 2nd, we took it to Ruth on June 14th. She is amazing, and I highly recommend Callahan's Tuxedo and Alterations to everyone, they're the best, and their prices are very reasonable. The entire staff is polite and very professional!! We love them! We will use them again and again! Great experience!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
