Sofia fixed my wedding dress for me, and I mean FIXED. It was way too big for me and she 100% delivered. My dress fit me like a glove and people told me all night "Your dress fits you perfectly!"--All thanks to Sofia!

I seriously cannot recommend Sofia more highly!!! I came here for alterations of my bridesmaid dress, which came in the mail fitting perfectly yet only a few days before the wedding it was suddenly loose on my waist and hips. I immediately contacted the boutique and spoke to Sofia about my situation, and even while helping many clients in the store, she gave me her personal number to continue communicating on what would be possible as it was a rush. I told her I knew how little time we had to work with so that I was only looking for alterations to make it fit my figure better, but hemming was not needed. Sofia was very reasonable and personable and she had me come in the next morning upon opening the store to analyze the dress. Upon inspection she pointed out to me, clearly and empathetically, how my dress was much more complicated than expected (lined areas vs no lining, multiple hems, halter correction etc.) as she described it to be six different ‘surgeries’ and that she worried she would not have enough time in the day to fit me in since she already had three or four orders due by EOD. I had already accepted my fate by that point, but just as I was about to gather my things and head out, she exclaimed “No. I’m going to do it! I can’t let you go to your wedding without you feeling good in your dress. I want to help you, I hate letting my clients down.” That alone spoke volumes of how much Sofia and her associate care about their work and their relationships with their customers. We talked about shared family heritage (shoutout to all us latinas??) and I felt very welcomed and comfortable in her hands! She thoroughly explained the cost breakdown and was so unbelievably kind about the entire rushed situation. When I went back for pickup she was finishing up working with a group of young girls, and her patience and care with them and their guardian was like she was part of their family. She fixed my bridesmaid dress perfectly and exceedingly for what I was looking for in such a tiny timeframe! I absolutely adore Sofia and her associate and 100% will be coming back for all future alteration and tailoring services!Seriously, go to Sofia’s Bridal and Boutique shop for all tailoring and alterations!!! Sofia is an amazing human!

Sofia is amazing at what she does. Her shop is located in a beautiful historic home with ample dressing rooms. She was very efficient with altering my wedding dress to the specifications I requested, and she did a beautiful job. I can't wait to wear my dress!

Brought her a bridesmaid dress and asked for a hem, straps and a slit. Ended up advising I don’t add a slit to the dress and explained why she felt that wasn’t a good idea, and I really appreciated that!!! I loved that she took the time to really help me understand why it could be a bad idea. She went above and beyond on the straps and hem. She added pleats to the straps so they’d match my dress, which was such a nice surprise and they looked so beautiful. She will fix anything on her work that doesn’t hold up, which Is a great touch. However, all of the stitching and seems held up beautifully so I’m sure no one has to take advantage of that aspect of her service. She even offered to re-steam my dress before I left for the wedding!! Overall, she is an amazing seamstress and I cannot wait to use her again!! Highly recommend.

Before I shopped here, I looked at all of the dresses online. I had my eye on one but also thought there were several I would have liked. Sofia was so helpful and professional. It was a great experience, and I found the perfect dress. She gave me as much time as I needed. Thank you so much Sofia!

I visited Sophia for some basic work done on multiple suits. I asked her for a price range repeatedly over the phone before visiting and she kept insisting that I had to go in person and schedule a meeting which would cost about $50 minimum to do. I'm a business owner myself and I understand that people have a value to their time. However, time is money to me as well, which is why I asked up front. I know a person who has been doing a business for a long time has a general price in mind from experience. When people refuse to even give a ballpark idea what it will cost for the service and only want you to discuss in person, it's almost always a sign that they'll be extremely expensive and charge based on what they "feel" they can get away with charging.When I arrived to the appointment she charged me $85-$115 per suit for just the sleeve work alone! this is extremely high as even the best tailors charge no more than about $35-$45 for this. Not even in expensive cities have I seen the price that high. She tried to rationalize this by saying it was because she was good, but I know master tailors with 50 years of experience (who were backed up when I needed some work done) and she's far higher than they are and was going to do it the quicker way by just rolling it up versus doing it properly.She might be better at wedding dresses, however I wouldn't recommend her for suit work unless you wish to pay a extremely overpriced amount for only decent work.I refused the price and came to get my suits and she was angry at me and still billed me for the $50-$100 on the initial visit when she left to answer the door a few times as well which shortened the appointment time.I would just suggest more transparency in pricing so people will know what they're getting into up front.

Sofia was wonderful! I purchased my dress in Chicago and had to bring it with me to Athens for alterations. I was so nervous, but Sofia and her team made everything so easy! She really made my dress perfect for my wedding day. Her attention to detail is very appreciated! She is also very flexible. If you need anything bridal check out Sofia!

Sofia altered a dress for my rehearsal dinner that was way too big and way too long. In 2 weeks it was PERFECT! She really captured my curves and listened to what I wanted for the dress. The bridal alterations are a little pricey, but so worth it!

Sofia changed my whole view of my dress for the better. I liked my dress before but I LOVED it on my wedding day. She fixed fitting issues that I didn't realize existed. She also custom made sleeves for my dress that were absolutely perfect- I had no idea what I wanted and she was very patient in helping me realize what I liked best and then brought it to life. It was expensive but I would have paid 10x what she charges to have a dress be that perfect again.

My experience with Sofía was amazing. She is also a designer, so her recommendations for how to elevate my formal dresses were on point. I bought my dresses online for a few hundred bucks each, and she made them look even more elegant and expensive! She is the only person I will come to for alterations in the future!

Sofia has altered two of my bridesmaids dresses in less than a year. She has done amazing both times and I highly recommend her. She is very passionate about what she does and is personable. Great experience both times and gets the alternations done in a timely manner. Will be going back to her for any other alteration needs.

Sofia is an amazing tailor! I originally bought my dress from JJ's House but I wanted it not only shortened but to also layer it and Sofia did an incredible job at making it happen. Couldn't recommend her enough!
