Atelier

Expert alterations specializing in fine sewing with attention to detail.

Because we believe in building an intimate relationship with each bride we choose to accept only a limited number of alteration commissions each year. We request that brides start this process a minimum of  3-4 months before their wedding date.

Our "Alterations to the Aisle" process starts with a reconstruction consultation where we work with you to design a plan to fit, hem and bustle your gown to perfection.  We take special care to see that all work on your gown is done to your preference. 

 By invitation we will complete your service with our on-site DeTailoring: delivering your dress to the venue, pressing it, assisting with dressing and photos, seeing you down the aisle and bustling your gown before sending you off to enjoy your reception!

• Engrave your gown with a custom styled and hand embroidered monogram.

• Add a special trinket from your childhood to your monogram and we will sew it into your gown.

• Custom suit labels.

• Monogrammed handkerchiefs.

• Custom design using your invitation artwork, a family members handwriting, a pet, the sky is the limit!

Do you have a beloved family heirloom that you would like to use on your wedding day?
