Allison G. Sent on 12/31/2020Exceptional personal service!
We bought a lovely gown at BHLDN, and Lynn altered it so well that it looked like a custom gown. She also carefully repaired an antique veil. Her work was careful and precise, her schedule accommodating, and her skill unparalleled. We will certainly recommend her and work with her again.Bridal Silhouette's reply:
Thank you Allison. It was a pleasure tweaking the gown for a proper fit and restoring the vintage veil...what an honor to have the pleasure of working with such fine lace but more so for your family. -

Absolute perfection
Lynn was amazing to work with and was one of our best vendors-hands down. I knew nothing about alterations, but I knew that I wanted to find a seamstress who knew exactly what she was doing so I wouldn’t end up paying more to have the second seamstress correct the first seamstresses‘ work, as I had read other brides sometimes experience. I’m so glad I chose Lynn since she made the process as easy as it could be.
My dress was at least a size too big when I first ordered it since all dress shops were closed due to COVID so I couldn’t try anything on, but Lynn worked wonders with the dress. She did a TON of work on the dress to make it fit me just right- she took in 13 side seams, reshaped the neckline and sewed new straps on so that it wouldn’t cut into my shoulders, hemmed the dress (all 4 layers of it), meticulously reattached the lace to the hem, and added in 12 points for the bustle. She even FaceTimed my Mom who lives out of state on my last appointment to show her how to attach the bustle. Lynn was extremely responsive and flexible in scheduling appointments on both weekends and weekdays, which was very convenient since I was able to come after work for my fittings on the week before the wedding.
Lynn was very diligent about following proper COVID protocols (she wore a mask and asked that I wore one, and asked me to wash hands when entering her studio). This helped me feel at ease since I spent a lot of time in her studio (it took 5 fittings since my dress was altered so much).
I agree with one of the other brides that Lynn felt like my pseudo-Mom during the process since my Mom lives out of state and was only able to come to one fitting. She was so warm and helped put me at ease about all the stress of wedding planning during COVID and was the first one to see me in my dress. She really takes the time to get to know you as a person and does not treat you as just another customer.
Lynn is meticulous and a pleasure to work with!
Cannot recommend Lynn enough!Bridal Silhouette's reply:

I found Lynn based on a search on WeddingWire, cross-referenced with Google. All of the reviews mentioned how meticulous Lynn was and what a miracle worker she was - and all the reviews were true! My dress had an illusion back, with lots of lace and Lynn worked magic on adjusting the back so there was no gapping, and then unpinning and then re-attaching the lace work along the hem. There were parts of the dress I swear she took completely apart and then re-did. Lynn was communicative, approachable, finished ahead of schedule and was my pseudo-mom for most fittings since my mom could only make it to the first and last fitting. Worth every penny and I couldn't have been happier with how my dress fit!Bridal Silhouette's reply:
Liz! It was a pleasure to work on your dress, fitting it to a “t” and chatting about your wedding details. I loved your dress and the over-skirt. You were a radiant bride! -

My dress was perfect!
We worked with Bridal Silhouette for both alterations and day-of coordination -- this review is for alterations.
Lynn was absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. I took my dress in for alterations on the early side (3-4 months out from the big day), and the alterations it required at the time were thankfully pretty minor. The main thing that needed to be done was the bustle, which turned out to be way trickier than expected. My dress had a long, heavy train and a lot of beautiful lacework on the skirt. Lynn was endlessly patient with me, pinning up multiple different bustle options at our first appointment until we found something that worked. I left the appointment that day feeling okay, but over the next couple days, I started worrying that the bustle might not be quite what I wanted -- I was too embarrassed to say anything, though, because Lynn had already spent so much time experimenting with it. Lynn actually reached out to me unprompted a few days after that appointment, and said she'd come up with a different solution if I was willing to try it out. I was so grateful that she initiated Bustle Take #2 -- I think she could tell I wasn't totally happy with the initial result. The final result was absolutely stunning -- we did a French bustle on the heavy underlayer of the train, then an American bustle with 5-6 pick-ups on the lace overlayer. I was so thrilled with what Lynn came up with, and so grateful for her attention to detail -- she really is a perfectionist and will make sure that you get the best possible result.
About a week out from the wedding, I tried on my dress one last time and noticed I'd lost some weight (stress!). The top of my strapless gown was gapping a little bit, and I started panicking that I might have a wardrobe malfunction at the wedding. Once again, Lynn swooped in to the rescue! She had me over, figured out the best way to take in the bodice, and had all the alterations completed within a few days. I picked up my dress on the Thursday before my Saturday wedding, and the fit was spot-on. I was so relieved!
On the big day, my dress fit perfectly, the bustle looked amazing during the reception and didn't fall out (despite being stepped on multiple times), and I've never felt so beautiful. Lynn is incredible and I couldn't recommend her alterations services more highly!
Finally, Lynn handled getting my dress cleaned and preserved by a specialist she trusts. She really is full service! Thanks, Lynn!!Bridal Silhouette's reply:
Meg, I'm here to serve my brides and making them feel beautiful in their gown on their wedding day is my highest priority. We had a good rapport right from the start and it made all the difference. You were a joy to work with! -
