Your own personal fairy godmother!

My husband and I came to Margaret’s with all of our wedding attire needs. Naomi handmade my veil and altered my 100% silk Augusta Jones dress, and Sandra hemmed my husband’s suit. Additionally, Margaret’s Cleaners handled the cleaning and restoration of my gown. They also cleaned and pressed my husband’s suit. Our experience with all of these services was nothing sort of excellent.

Naomi created my dream cathedral-length veil for a fraction of the cost had I purchased it in store. Her alterations on my gown were done impeccably, and my dress fit me to a T. Naomi is the sweetest person to work with and she put me at ease knowing my gown was in excellent, loving hands. She listened to every concern I had without judgement, allowing me to rest easy in the decisions we made. She was my fairy godmother for a few months, and I feel so fortunate that I got to work with her.

Additionally, the restoration process is second to none—once again, I felt safe entrusting my gown to them. While Margaret’s services may cost more than other providers, you really get what you pay for.

Brides, look at their restoration process and how it differs (and is superior to) other cleaners! Also, nothing looks better than a dress that is fitted to your height and shape. My dress was already gorgeous, but once it was altered to fit me (hemmed, back-stitch at the bust, letting the lining out a smidge in my hips, properly bustled), it was DIVINE. My very picky, exercise and fashion obsessed aunt said my dress looked like it was made for me no less than three times.

All in all, Margaret’s Cleaners (and especially Naomi) ensured our wedding outfits arrived impeccably clean and completely suited to our figures. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Alterations Made Easy!

I was referred to Margaret’s Cleaners through The Dress Theory in San Diego, and I would 100% recommend their services! They did an amazing job taking my dress in, hemming, adding bustles, cups and more! Appointments were easy, and they were even able to ship my dress to my local Margaret’s cleaners which was so convenient.
