Custom Sewing by Heather

I could not have had a better experience with Heather! Heather is extremely professional, and amazing at what she does. My dress was a LOT, and I’m sure it was complicated to work with, but it turned out better than I could have ever envisioned. I felt beautiful on my wedding day, and I have Heather to thank for that. I have a larger chest and my dress was strapless, so I was nervous about how it would look and fit my body, but any worries I had were gone after my first appointment. I will genuinely miss working with Heather! I highly recommend Heather to any bride wanting to feel confident and beautiful on their big day! Thank you for everything!

Heather is absolutely incredible! She is so knowledgeable and knows how to make any dress look great! I had a dress with a lot of delicate laters and lace. She was able to hem my dress AND move the delicate lace up the dress so I did not lose the details I loved about the dress. She was so professional and just amazing. I was nervous that she would be out of our budget, but she was in line with a lot of the quotes I received and she is by far the best in the business. She also added made sure the dress looked amazing while bustled. She also made it very easy for someone to bustle the day of. I am so eternally grateful to have been able to work with Heather!

Heather is truly a joy to work with!! Not only did my wedding dress fit perfectly, she made me feel so confident every time I stepped into her studio! She is extremely professional, and walked my MOH step by step through the bustle instructions and made sure she understood. She is an artist at her craft, and I would recommend her time and time again to any bride needing alterations done! Her alterations space is located in her beautiful home, and there is ample driveway parking as well as on the street in front of her home.

Heather was such an amazing find for me! I had a beautiful dress that didn't need a lot of alterations, but I needed a professional to help me revamp it so it was easier to walk in. Heather had great ideas and made the dress even more beautiful. She was incredibly communicative and efficient. I really appreciated knowing exactly what to expect at each fitting and knowing the timeframe. She did an amazing job and I highly recommend her for your wedding alteration needs!

I could not have chosen anyone better to alter my wedding dress. It is so clear that Heather takes the utmost pride in the work she does and is genuinely so excited for the brides she works with. She was very open with her communication and helped guide me as I wasn't completely sure what I wanted to do with the length as I got married on a beach. She made this process stress free and would absolutely recommend her for any bride in the future.

Heather was able to completely rework my dress and did an incredible job! I lost quite a bit of weight after purchasing my dress, so Heather had to take it in pretty significantly to make it fit. She was able to work me into her busy schedule and got all the alterations done within a few weeks. Heather took such good care of my dress and I was amazed by the final product!

Heather is an absolute gem, and I’m so grateful for her expertise in altering not just one but two very different dresses for my wedding. From our first meeting, she put me completely at ease with her wealth of experience and deep knowledge of dresses, fabrics, and alterations. She didn’t just make my dresses fit perfectly; she also provided great tips and ideas that made the process so much smoother.

One thing I truly appreciated was her honesty and reassurance about what it means to wear a delicate dress all evening. She reminded me multiple times that my dress would get dirty, and things might even fall apart—and she was absolutely right! By the time I walked down the aisle, the underside of my dress was dirty, and during the reception (#KnuckIfYouBuck), one of my straps came undone. But none of that caused me any stress because Heather had prepared me for the reality of enjoying my night in a beautiful, delicate gown.

On top of her technical skills, Heather has a calming presence that worked wonders for my nervous energy. She was always polite, kind, and patient, which made the fittings so much easier. Bonus points: dress alterations can sometimes feel uncomfortable due to body image concerns, but I never felt anything but confident and comfortable in her care.

Heather is truly a master of her craft, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She made my dresses—and me—feel amazing on one of the most special days of my life. Thank you, Heather!

Working with Heather was one of the easiest parts of my wedding planning. I went to her with a vision of a dress not sure if it was even possible but Heather worked with me and created my vision perfectly. She is very professional and informative. She addressed all my questions and concerns and made sure I understood my dress and the alterations before she did them. Definitely would recommend Heather to any bride!

Heather is an absolute gem to work with! She truly understands that a wedding dress is the most important garment you'll ever wear and is committed to making sure it fits flawlessly. Her attention to detail is impeccable, from the fit and tailoring to teaching you how to care for and bustle the dress. She takes the time to ensure you feel confident and stunning on your big day, and she absolutely succeeds in this. I would wholeheartedly recommend Heather to anyone looking for a seamstress who truly cares about bringing your bridal vision to life!

Heather, thank you so much for the fantastic alterations to my wedding dress. It fit me perfect when we were done and I felt so beautiful. The dress looked better than I ever could imagined. You were so personable and I greatly appreciate all your knowledge, especially in explaining things to me. My wedding gown shows you take great pride in your work! Thank you so much, I can’t wait until our big day.
