This was the best choice I got my Mom dress, and my wedding cleaned. Perfected

My husband and I got married on June 18, 2022, and I bought my wedding dress from Arlet Bridal! Due to Covid-19, my wedding was postponed for 1.5 years, and I had gained some weight! I took the dress back to Arlet Bridal to ask what they suggest I do (buy another dress or try to fix my dream dress somehow), and they recommended Nany Lamaset (located in Rancho Cucamonga) to have alterations. Nany saw us immediately, and added some sheer material to the back of my dress, and it fit!

On top of this, Nany is a one-shop shop. She hemmed/ altered the length of my dress, and she cleaned and steamed it so that it looked in the best possible shape.

Although I purchased my dress elsewhere, Nany Lamaset sells beautiful wedding dresses, Tux/ suites for men, and accessories, etc. She also provides dress preservation services as well.

I highly recommend Nany Lamaset for all your wedding needs!

Nany Lamasat took care of my wedding dress alterations. I was worried about having my dress altered but they did an amazing job!!! I even got my dress with plenty of time to spare before the wedding.

Nany was recommended to me. I brought my dress here for alterations. Nany made me feel so comfortable and knew exactly what she was doing. She made my dress fit perfectly to my body, people at my wedding even asked if my dress was custom made! Highly recommend her!

Wedding anxiety is so real! I was a mess of nerves and anxiety prior to my wedding, and my dress was a huge source of this. My dream wedding dress purchased from a different vendor arrived after 6 months of waiting, and the way the buttons on the back were originally structured they were gaping and looked horrible. I found Nany through a Yelp recommendation, and she turned my entire experience around into a positive one!! For all you stressed out anxious brides - leave your worries at the door with Nany because she is a miracle worker! She re-shaped my dress to fit me perfectly, and sewed on more buttons to stop the gaping. I even gained weight between fittings (Thanks COVID) and she easily let out the dress a little to fit me perfectly once again. She is the kindest woman who makes you feel like a princess bride! She saw how anxious I was that the buttons would not look right and she rushed me in the very next day for my alterations. Out of all my vendors I have worked with I would recommend Nany, she is seriously the best. Thank you Nany for all your amazing work.

I've gone to Nany's 3 times, and two out of three experiences were negative. Every time has been very expensive. The first was a $300 dress bought online, she charged me almost $400 for a hem and take it in. The second was a $75 dress online, she charged me $80 for a hem and add a stitch to the neckline. The work was poorly done. To put this into perspective, I was quoted $10-15 elsewhere recently for a hem.

The final time was my wedding gown. She charged me $1,080 for basic alterations -- a hem, bustle, add bra cups, and bring in the waist. I ended up paying $980 since I paid in cash (don't make that mistake because then you can't do a charge back on your card). I was desperate to take it somewhere, and Nany was my only choice since other seamstresses were booked up. That should have been a red flag.

She does the hem right in front of you, which is very scary. She takes a pair of scissors and starts cutting up your dress right in front of your eyes. I could have done this myself. You think "she's going to clean up the messy scissor lines later behind the scenes" but no. She charged $300 for a hem that she did literally in front of me in 5 minutes. Very messy and scary. She also cut it about an inch too short, which drove me crazy. She cut into my dress before telling me the price, I felt compelled to pay and go through her. Looking back, that is highly unprofessional. Don't ever cut someone's garment until they've agreed to the price. There is a huge lack of transparency here.

Her alterations were so poorly done. My dress was a designer gown that retails about $3000. It fit me almost perfectly, so there's no way it needed $1000 worth of alterations. She's a scam artist. She didn't bring it in enough, so it was falling off me all night. She also didn't properly sew in the bra cups, causing that part of the dress to collapse onto itself and unevenly put weight on the boning. This caused problems all night.

The worst was the bustle however. I paid $350 for her to make my dress look hideous. I sent her messages expressing my concern about the bustle and told her in person I wasn't happy with how it was done. Buttons were also falling off, so not only was it ugly, it wasn't even functional. She kept saying she couldn't do it any other way, which is a huge red flag. There are many types of bustles, and she doesn't know how to do any of them.

Take a look at the photo attached. You can see my dress has a beautiful long train with tons of detail. The middle photo is how Nany bustled it -- it's frumpy, ugly, and hides all the beautiful detail of the train. I hated it so much I left there in tears.

I started calling other places immediately and found a bridal specialist located in Temecula who squeezed me into her busy schedule. Even though she had 12 hours of work on her plate that day, she managed to see me because I was so desperate. I drove 2 hours total and spent several hours in Temecula while this other woman worked her magic. The third pic shows the final bustle that Nany is not capable of doing. Look at how elegant and flattering it is. That's exactly how a bustle should look -- not the monstrosity you see in the 2nd pic.

The other woman said the alterations were so poorly done by Nany and that Nany overcharged me by at least $500. She was appalled at how poorly the bra cups were sewn in and said the bustle Nany did "gives her nightmares."

Not to mention Nany's shop is hot and stuffy and you have no privacy when you're changing.
