Working with Juliette to alter my wedding dress was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! Juliette works out of her home, and from the moment I met her I knew my dress was in good hands. The love and care she provides to her customers in unmatched. She was so honest with me about some of the asks that I had and whether or not they would work as expected, which I personally really appreciated. I looked forward to my appointments with Juliette as she is genuinely such a kind and funny human. On my wedding day, my dress fit perfectly, and the bustle on quite possible was the least complicated bustle ever created! Once I had my final pick-up for my dress, I was sad to say goodbye. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again! -

Out of all of the people I had worked with throughout the wedding planning process, Juliette was one of my favorites. I was nervous to trust just anyone with my wedding dress, but Juliette’s amazing reviews convinced me to book an appointment with her. The moment I met her, I knew I made the right choice! She immediately put me at ease with her extensive knowledge, honesty, and sense of humor, and I looked forward to every appointment with her. She made me fall in love with my dress all over again, making it fit perfectly and creating the most beautiful bustle out of a long, heavy train. I received so many compliments on how perfectly my dress fit and I can’t thank Juliette enough, I will be recommending her to everyone! -

I cannot recommend Juliette enough! My wedding dress arrived a lot larger than expected, but Juliette instantly put me at ease during a time that could have been very stressful. Her professionalism and expertise were evident as she offered insightful suggestions to enhance the dress's fit and overall design.
Upon pick up, the dress fit like a glove thanks to Juliette's meticulous attention to every detail. She went above and beyond and is highly organized to meet every bride's specific timeline.
If you're searching for a seamstress with unparalleled talent, professionalism, and a genuine passion for her craft, Juliette is your gal! -

After my experience, I would trust Juliette with my firstborn child. Oh my gosh I feel so lucky to have found her. I got my dress from a bridal salon in the greater Boston area, and was told that "standard" alterations (hem, bustle, baaaasically nothing else) would be $795 and anything else would be charged as "custom". Juliette did all of the following: took in and shortened my illusion sleeves, hemmed, bustled, covered the plunge on my bodice with extra lace, added some lace to my open back, and, best of all, gave me complete peace of mind throughout the entire process. All of that was cheaper than the "standard" package would've been at the place I bought the dress from.
I had three fittings with Juliette and each one was a delight. I looked forward to seeing her every time, she's so kind and genuinely 100% cares about her "girls" and how we feel in the most important dress we'll ever wear!! Her advice was always on point and it is always backed by her experience but you still feel like you have complete control over the dress and how it will look. My cousin/MOH, who had been with me when I bought the dress, said she couldn't believe how much more stunning it looked once Juliette was finished with it.
I cannot recommend Juliette highly enough. Thank you thank you thank you Juliette, you are truly a godsend! -

10/10 just the best!
10/10 — Juliette is THE BEST when it comes to all of your bridal gown alteration needs. It was very easy to book an appointment on her website and as a busy bride with lots of to-dos, I really appreciated the appointment reminder emails and texts. Juliette is a joy to work with. It’s a big deal to trust someone with your gown but Juliette immediately put me at ease with her calm, welcoming, and joyful personality. She’s professional, very reasonably priced, honest, a great communicator, and pays close attention to detail. The back part of my dress really puckered out with a ton of extra material over my hips and Juliette took the time to think and figure out how she was going to fix it. In the end, she had to lift an entire layer of lace, take in some of the material, and then reapply the lace. It came out PERFECT. My dress fit me like a glove and I’m still receiving compliments about how stunning my dress was. She also presented a few different bustle options and was very patient when teaching my friend how to work the bustle so we had no issues on my wedding day. You won’t regret booking Juliette! -

Perfect in every way!
I could not agree more with all the other reviews for Juliette – working with her was fantastic!! She is incredibly skilled, kind, and professional, and always has her client’s best interest in mind when making alteration suggestions. I am only 5’1 and my dress needed to be altered quite a bit, and she went above and beyond in every way. Juliette hand-sewed my lost lace back onto my dress (the bottom as well as on the sleeves), reshaped the bodice, and adjusted the shoulders and sleeves to make a dress that fit me perfectly and made me feel confident. While I loved the dress when I purchased it, I was shocked by how much of a difference her alterations made when I came in for my second fitting. She completely transformed it into a gown that looked and felt like it was custom made for me with the most gorgeous 7-point bustle I have ever seen. She also made sure to provide me with my extra dress fabric and suggested that I incorporate it into my wedding bouquet and husband’s boutonniere, which I did and was so thrilled with. My mother attended my first fitting (and is a very harsh critic) and continued to rave about how knowledgeable and talented Juliette was throughout that whole weekend – even knowing what changes Juliette was going to make, she was still floored by my final dress on my wedding day and my parents shed tears of joy during my “first look” with them. I cannot recommend Juliette enough for wedding gown alterations in the Boston area! -

Jillian Sent on 12/12/2022Unbelievable Experience- Juliette is a must-hire!
I found Juliette based on her excellent reviews and she is just as incredible as her reviews suggest. Juliette is so kind, knowledgeable, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. She created really beautiful moments that made my mom feel so special and even saves pieces of your dress for you to preserve or use for children later in life. She also has incredible suggestions- for example, she cut multiple layers out from under my dress to make it more lightweight as I had a destination wedding. Aside from this, she is incredibly kind and truly helped me feel so confident in my dress on my big day. Thank you so much Juliette! -

Juliette is incredibly professional and talented. I loved my dress when I picked it out, but her knowledge and eye for detail made it more beautiful than I could ever imagine. The dress fit me like a glove and I felt so perfect in it all day/night. Every appointment was efficient and enjoyable because of Juliette's demeanor and kindness. I cannot recommend her enough! -

Perfection!
Juliette is a master of her craft. She is incredibly skilled, kind, and professional and I knew 5 minutes into my first fitting that I made the right choice with her. She knew immediately when I put my dress on that the lining had been made too small so she took out a razor and ripped all of the seams open - and I didn't even bat an eye. She knew EXACTLY what she was doing and not only made that lining fit me properly, but also created a STUNNING waterfall bustle (with no visible buttons whatsoever - perfect craftsmanship), shortened my sleeves, shortened my hem, put in cups & adjusted the top to fit properly, and so many other details that I am just astounded she got done in the time she did. When my dress first came in from the designer I thought that I had made the wrong choice but once Juliette worked her magic, I fell in love with it all over again. Thank you so much, Juliette!! -

Johanna F. Sent on 10/11/2022Juliette is everything and more.
There are no words to describe how amazing Juliette is. She is by far one of the hardest-working people I've ever met. Not only is her work incredible and of a perfectionist nature, but she genuinely cares about each and every one of her brides. My wedding dress was delivered 4 months late and left me with only 1-2 months for alterations. Even with Juliette being booked to the brim, she found time for me and made sure my dress fit like a glove. And that it did! This woman is the epitome of good service and a kind heart.. and the icing on the cake is that she is incredibly fairly priced. If you're looking for alterations, stop now and get on Juliette's schedule ASAP. -

Impeccable alterations!!
I can not recommend Juliette more highly for wedding dress alterations. Her many years of experience shine through in her exceptional work, attention to detail, and thoughtful approach to alterations. She was unphased by the yards of horsehair trim that had to be removed and hand sewn back onto my dress, and her work was impeccable. I got so many compliments on my wedding day that my dress fit me like a glove, and all credit goes to Juliette. I was so happy with my experience and grateful to have had Juliette as part of my team. I will absolutely be relying on her for all future alterations! -

Working with Juliette for my wedding dress tailoring was one of the best decisions I made during my wedding planning process!
My wedding dress was not custom-ordered, so pre-alterations it was loose and not particularly flattering (see last picture for pre-alterations baseline). Juliette worked absolute MAGIC. The finished product fits me like a glove and looks as though it custom-designed for me.
Most wedding dress tailoring involves multiple stages alterations, and somehow Juliette is able to manage almost everything in one go. After my first fitting, my dress was nearly perfect, and she only had to make one minor tweak and steam my dress after that. She stored my dress and veil for me from my consultation appointment until I picked them up the week of my wedding, and she steamed my veil for me for no additional charge.
For truly superb work and a personalized experience, her pricing is so affordable! I paid less than half of what I had been quoted from a well-known tailor in Boston, and, cost aside, I felt so much more comfortable working with Juliette.
Her personality is comforting, humorous, and no-nonsense, all rolled into one. I knew I was in good hands from the moment I stepped into her home studio for a consultation. I am forever grateful to Juliette for her role in me being a confident and radiant bride on my wedding day!

I cannot say enough positive things about Juliette!! My dress was quite intricate - lots of detail on the top, and many, many layers on the bottom. Juliette took in the dress so that it fit PERFECTLY, but I am also fairly short and she had to hem those many, many layers to a more suitable height for someone 5'2 :) I also wanted to add off the shoulder sleeves to the dress, and Juliette recommended making them removable via snaps, which was such a perfect suggestion. That way I was able to remove them after the ceremony/photos for a more casual look for the reception & dancing! She also added a bustle, which she was able to do UNDER a layer of my dress, so you literally couldn't tell that my dress was even bustled at all! Juliette was super responsive through the whole process, quite affordable compared to other tailors, and she's also just SO nice and kind. She really makes you feel so wonderful & beautiful every time you're in her home trying your dress on! I can't recommend Juliette more and am so grateful I worked with her for my dress! -

Thank you Juliette!
Juliette did an amazing job on my alterations. My dress had a lot of intricate detail including lace, beading, sequins, and a long train. She took the dress up and in, and also added a beautiful waterfall bustle. When I picked it up in September, the dress fit like a glove – absolute perfection. She also did a thorough cleaning for me, which I’m sure took a lot of time given that the dress as off the rack and had taken a bit of a beating. She was very responsive when scheduling appointments and her pricing was extremely reasonable. I would highly recommend her to any brides in the Boston area in need of a wedding seamstress. -

Juliette is a WONDERFUL seamstress and person. She did an OUTSTANDING job hemming my wedding dress after only an initial fitting (see the before and after pictures). When you arrive at her studio, she gives you a WARM greeting and gets right to work. She’s efficient and honest with you throughout the process, which is SO important for a wedding dress tailor. She’s also very accommodating. If you are ever running late to an appointment you can just shoot her a text to let her know and she’ll be there waiting for you. She also took great care in altering and updating my Mom’s veil by removing old unwanted pieces and adding in a comb with a hair piece. I can’t say enough about the quality of her work and the genuine kindness she showed me. -

I feel so lucky to have found Juliette. She didn’t just tailor my wedding dress to fit; she also made on-point recommendations and alterations that made the end result the dress of my dreams. Juliette was meticulous from the first session all the way through to pickup. She made sure that everything fit and fell perfectly, and walked my mother through the complexities of the French bustle. It’s so clear that she knows what she’s doing and cares for the brides she works with. Her alterations to the dress made me feel beautiful and confident on my wedding day. I’m so grateful to her and will absolutely be recommending her to everyone I know! -
