    Bridal Perfect Fit was Perfect!

    Van did a fantastic job on my dress! I felt like she genuinely cared and treated me as if I were her own family. She was professional, kind, patient, and a master of her craft. Van helped my dress look its best for my special day!

    The best in San Antonio

    Van is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!! She turned my wedding dress from the left picture to the beauty on the left! She’d so easy to work with, and the quality of her work is impeccable. I would never trust anyone else with my wedding dress. She made sure I looked and felt beautiful on my wedding day, and I’m forever grateful. I will always recommend Bridal Perfect Fit if you want professional, timely, and expert work on your dress. Van truly loves what she does, and she is amazing at it!!

    Amazing alterations that made me feel confident

    Van and her team are incredible. My wedding dress was way too big when it arrived, and it was so hard to envision how it would look when it fit me correctly. She worked her magic, and the dress fit like a glove. She was helpful and communicative when we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic, and even let me come in for an additional fitting before they finished alterations, since it had been nearly 8 months since my original fitting. I felt comfortable and confident on the day of my wedding, and my maid of honor had no trouble with the bustle thanks to the easy-to-follow video Van took. Van even offered to make a custom face mask with the leftover fabric from my dress- it turned out absolutely perfect. I will definitely be back with any other alterations I need in the future!

    Very sweet, super helpful

    Bride speaking here (using my husband's profile). Van was wonderful and very patient. She made sure I felt comfortable in the dress and made sure it was perfect for the wedding day. She has a TON of experience and it shows. Down to the detail of how it should be cut so I could ballroom dance in it. Grateful for her help, I definitely recommend her to everyone! Thank you Van!

    Van knows what she's doing!

    Van made me fall in love with my dress even more than I already was when she altered it to fit me perfectly. She saw parts and pieces that needed to be altered that I wouldn't have thought of but made a huge difference. I can't tell you how many guests told me that my wedding dress fit me "perfectly"! It truly did. I only had to meet with Van three times. The initial meeting, a second to try it with the first few alterations then the final meeting to pick up the dress. Super easy, but it made a huge difference. Thank you, Van, for the great work and always being easy to work with.

    Amazing alterations were done to my wedding dress! Such fine detail and only took one fitting! The seamstress takes the time to go over the alterations she suggests. It was a bit pricey but worth every penny! Fit like a glove. :)

    Bridal Perfect Fit was recommended to me by my bridal salon, Bella Bride Boutique. They were very accommodating and did fantastic work with my wedding gown! Although none of my friends were able to come with me to my alterations appointments, she ensured that I had a video of doing the bustle so that they would be able to see how it was done beforehand and welcomed us to call anytime if we had questions the day of! The dress fit perfectly and bustle held for the entire night. While the alterations were expensive, they were well worth it and I will be going back for dress preservation and future clothing alterations!

    Van was amazing and made my dress fit amazingly! She also had the perfect veil for my dress that was handmade and so beautiful, and half the price of those at the bridal store!

    YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR WEDDING DRESS HERE!!! Super talented and prioritizes her brides!! She fixed a vintage dress that another seamstress messed up and did a phenomenal beading job on a new dress I had purchased! Will definitely be returning in the future!

    I was very nervous about having it tailored since I absolutely loved my wedding dress - but it was a little too big when I bought it (no smaller sizes left).

    Van was sweet, polite, and responsive. She's been in the business forever - she does regular tailoring but wedding dresses are her specialty. She quickly took measurements and it took me 2 fittings total. She did call me to let me know my dress wasn't ready initially on the second fitting - I was in no rush and would prefer to let her take her time. It took about 6 weeks total for everything - but I'm from out of town and I gave the dress to her with plenty of time. She did a great job and knows her stuff - she added more boning to avoid runching, hemmed, added bra cups and a bustle, and took it in 2 sizes.

    With all these adjustments, she tossed in a free dress steaming, and when I picked up my dress and told me I could bring it back for another free steaming if needed. I also made my own veil and she kindly steamed that for free too, as well as reinforced it. Quality customer service.

    Van is not cheap - the alterations cost more than the wedding dress itself. However, since I got the dress on a really great sale, I figured it was worth it to get quality alterations, and Van made it absolutely perfect on me. I am petite, but she gave me curves with a bust and a waist and made me feel very pretty. Very happy with the final product and would recommend her to anyone wanting quality wedding dress alterations!

    UPDATE: Because of classes I had to leave San Antonio two weeks prior to the wedding. The day I was leaving, I tried on my dress; it was too tight so Van let me come in and drop it off (my mother picked up the dress). Then 2 weeks later I came back the day before the wedding, tried on the dress, and it was a tad bit too loose now. Yes, the DAY BEFORE THE WEDDING Van let me come in and they took in the dress immediately. It fit like a glove on my wedding day. That is QUALITY customer service!

    I went to Van to have my wedding dress altered, and I would go back in a heartbeat. My dress was very complicated, and Van did a lovely job making it fit me perfectly. She even did it in one fitting, which was fantastic, even though we had time until the wedding. She also steamed my dress and veil and taught my mom and one of my bridesmaids how to do the bustle. I originally thought her quote was pricy, but when she showed us what all she had to do (including taking beading off and reapplying it, and taking in an underlying layer of corset), the cost made way more sense. I'd recommend her for any tailoring, especially wedding gowns.

    I needed my wedding dress altered and I went to van and she did an awesome Job!! Everyone loved my wedding dress. When I bought my wedding dress it needed a lot of work to fit my body style. Van worked really hard on my dress and I only had a month left and she was able to work with my dress and it looked amazing!! I am very pleased with the work she did on my wedding dress.

    Van was the third seamstress I went visited to discuss my dress. I bought it because I loved the fabric and simple skirt design; however, it was a size 20 and I'm a size 12. It also had a few embellishments that I hated. Van turned it into the perfect dress!! And she added boning so I didn't need the heavy undergarments. My sisters and bridesmaids were very nervous when I bought the dress. After seeing the final result, they all loved it! My coworkers and groom said it was the perfect dress for me!! Thank you Van for the fabulous work, the outstanding service and the quick turnaround.

    Van did a great job at alterations. She also does custom Bridal Gowns which I wish I would have known beforehand. She made my gown fit my body and the bustle was beautiful. The way she did the bustle allowed all the details of my train to show and was less complicated then the way David's Bridal alteration dept wanted to do the bustle. This is very important when it matters: the day of the wedding. You don't want to waste time messing with the bustle when you want to be enjoying your special day. The bustle was user friendly and beautiful. She was cheaper than David's Bridal and did more work.

    Van at Bridal Perfect Fit did a wonderful job on my bridal gown. I purchased my dress in Boston, so I wasn't sure where to take it, but after researching her business online and seeing other reviews about her great work, I felt secure in my choice. Van had excellent attention to detail and great pride in her work. She even makes custom bridal gowns if that's something that piques your interest. She worked quickly to pin my dress for alterations - I couldn't believe how easily she made the dress look just the way I wanted it to - and she saved me $50 by putting in cups and telling me to return the expensive (and uncomfortable) undergarment I had bought. In addition, her prices were hundreds of dollars less than I expected to pay. Her business is called Bridal Perfect Fit for a reason. She did a great job - I had my dress back just a few weeks later - and I would recommend her to anyone!

    Van is an amazing seamstress! I walked in there with a dress 2 sizes too big with some details I wasn't crazy about and she created my perfect dress! The alterations fit like a glove and she remade the flower detail on the front of the dress that I initially hated. She removed the zipper and faux buttons on the back and made me a beautiful corset lace-up closure. I ended up bringing in my husband to have his "custom" tux jacket remade and my pregnant bridesmaid to have her dress altered to fit her growing stomach! Her services aren't cheap, but she does fantastic work and she's worth every penny!

    I now feel like a good seamstress/alteration place is like a good mechanic and it's well worth the high cost if you know the job is going to be done right. That's how I feel about Van and Bridal Perfect Fit. I went at the recommendation from the dress boutique. I had a first fitting where many (many!) small changes were identified. My dress was satin with details up top and there were lots of places that needed to be taken in and the pattern over the satin made it difficult to alter. For the second trial, the dress was noticeably big and I'm pretty sure I didn't lose weight so I think we just missed it the first time among the other changes (or maybe I lost inches and not pounds?). Whatever the case, a little more work to be done and I could still pick up the dress a week before the wedding.
    Regarding these appointments, I think both of my fittings were rescheduled, but with plenty of notice; also I was on time both times and had to wait for the appointment before me to finish up. Not a big deal, but I did get the sense that she is very busy.
    All in all, the dress looked amazing, so if that's what matters to you then I would still recommend Van completely. I don't know that I could have that much trust considering all the alterations my dress needed.

    After realizing I needed some help to fit into my dress, I went to see Van. I only had 1 month before my date and she did the hem, bustle and let out the dress. It was a huge job with a ton of layers and brad work. The dress fit amazing after she was done, and looked great!

    Bridal Perfect Fit did my alterations for my wedding dress, and I was pretty happy with how it turned out. She steamed the dress for free, as well as having 2 fittings to make sure that the dress fit well. She was a little hesitant to take it in when I wanted to, she kept saying that "it looks okay like this, I think it will work to not take it in." I got my dress for free from a friend, so I only paid for alterations, it was important for me to look great, not just "okay." She did eventually take it in for me, so it all worked out.
    I thought the price was a little high, but looking at other business's, she's comparable. I guess bridal alterations are just super expensive overall!

    Bridal perfect fit came highly recommended by Bella bridal. They seemed a little expensive but the lady doing the work said my dress was about a size too big for me so it need to be taken in a lot in the waste, added a bustle, the shoulders taken in and bra padding as well. The day I was to pick it up (a week from my wedding) she wasn't quite done with the bustle so she asked me to pick it up the next morning. I couldn't because I have to take off of work to make it before closing, so I asked my moh to do it. She made it at 4 pm and had to wait 45min because she still wasn't done! I didn't get a phone call or anything. When I got it home there were strings on the shoulders I had to cut off... just seemed like very rushed work. I can tell she is very good at her job, but she over books and this causes rushed work. I will not be going back to her or recommending her to any of my friends that are getting married. It was a very stressful situation.

    She fixed my dress in a week but it was still too long at the bottom. She also left a bunch of chalk markings on it and it wouldn't come off. Charged 100$ not worth it.
