This is my second time coming to Chic Bridal and Formal Alterations and I’m so happy with their work! This time I brought two Indian lehengas, and they were altered perfectly and ready so fast. The quality and attention to detail were amazing. The lady there is incredibly sweet and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. I definitely recommend them and will absolutely be coming back! 💕👗

Fast and quick but PLEASE update the website for prices. I had a patch sowed on and the website said it was free but when I got there, they said $5.

We love Chic! Our whole family and a few friends have come here for so many occasions- prom, homecoming, bridesmaid, mother or the bride and more. Their work is so fast and so good! She gets it right the first time and makes us feel so comfortable with her recommendation and suggestions! Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

What an amazing experience, Merilyn worked her magic on the dress that both my grandmother and mom wore on their wedding days. We weren’t sure it would be salvageable but she fixed everything up perfectly. I would recommend her to anyone needing high quality alterations, especially for deliacate or extra special hierlooms.
