Patrica was recommended to me by my dress boutique, Bridals By Cyndi, to alter my dress for my March 2026 wedding. The location was a bit out of the way for me, but I am thrilled I made the trip to Michelle Manelli Boutique & Alterations by Patrica. All of my appointments were swift, informative, and fun. My bustle was secure, well-crafted, and exactly what I wanted (as I did NOT want a “pin-the-tail-on-the-bride” situation), and it held up beautifully. They took my feedback exceptionally well when adjusting the sleeves on my dress and it fit me spectacularly. Thank you, Patricia!

My daughter and I were referred to Patricia through our bridal shop. From beginning to end she was incredible. She made us feel so comfortable and our dresses were altered perfectly. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

I was set up with Patricia for my alterations through my bridal shop and I am one lucky bride!!! Turns out she did alterations on my Mom's mother of the groom dress 10 years before and she was incredible then! She made me feel so comfortable and I trusted her opinion so much! She created the most beautiful bustle that was so easy to handle my long train throughout my long wedding day! She added some lace to the top of my gown to cover up some areas and you would never be able to tell it wasn't there all along! The confidence and talent she exhibits comes from the many years of experience she has and she instills such a trusting relationship with her customers! No ask was too much and she brought me back for multiple fittings to be sure everything was absolutely perfect! She also altered my Mom's dress - which was 2 sizes too big and she brought it down to fit her perfectly without looking like it had been altered at all! She made us both feel like we were the most beautiful people in the world that day and we are so thankful for her!

Patricia is amazing! I was really nervous about having my wedding dress altered because I had purchased a sample that was at least two sizes too big (and just generally had a ton of fabric and detail). I was looking for someone who had experience with Lazaro gowns, and found Patricia through Bridal Garden. And I'm so glad i did! She has been so awesome to work with. She is incredibly detail-oriented, and she and her staff are so sweet. My dress now fits me PERFECTLY (cinched waist with amazing curves). And she went above and beyond to find buttons that would match my dress (as a few were missing). She also made me a veil on the spot, and it completely matches my gown. It's been a fantastic bridal experience. I can't emphasize enough the value of her services. Her prices were about what I was expecting, given the extent of the work that needed to be done on my dress. (Actually, I was pleasantly surprised at the cost - it's the one part of my wedding budget that met my expectations). Her work is SO worth it. 100% happy to recommend her to anyone.

Patricia is an artist! She completely re-made my dress and made it fit me like a glove! It took her over 5 fittings and it was a very challenging set of alterations that needed to be done but with her vast experience and creativity she made it work!

If I could give this company zero stars, I would. Worst experience ever received. Please do not give this business any more money. They are extremely rude, completely disrespectful and an absolute scam (fyi they will curse you out). They promise you service and have you pay $500 up front and then they argue with you and refuse to provide the service you paid for. Please do not trust the “good” reviews they have. It is all fabricated.
