When finding the perfect wedding dress, there are many considerations that come into play.  Should you shop at a national chain, a local bridal shop, an ever-growing online market or someone Oct dress backelse’s closet?  At Superior Sewing, we realize that every bride has her own vision of “the dress”.  We aim to help you create your dream dress through alterations and custom designs.

Custom Design:

If you decide on a custom creation, Superior Sewing will assist you before, during and after the purchase.  About nine months to one year before the wedding date, schedule an appointment so we have the opportunity to discuss your ideas.  Bring us your inspiration!  From pictures, drawings and sketches, we will come up with the dress you want.  Choose from fabric samples, beading, jewels and whatever else you’re looking for then let us get to work.  We pay attention to every detail you request in order to make the perfect creation for the big day.

Your Mother’s Gown:

Have a sentimental tie to a family gown?  We will remake any dress based on your vision!  For example, if you are planning on wearing your mother’s wedding dress but want major changes, we can help make a truly unique gown.  If the original dress is not usable, we can take lace and trim from the old dress and add it to a new gown.  Therefore, you will still have your dream dress with added sentimental value.

Dress Alterations:

If you already have a dress that needs altering, let Superior Sewing perfectly fit your dress to your measurements.  No matter where you purchase your wedding gown, we are ready to help you with all of your tailoring needs.  With quality of work above the rest, let the professional team at Superior Sewing help you achieve your dream wedding look!

One of the best investments you can make for your wardrobe is getting the proper alterations.  When you tailor your clothes, they are matched to your measurements so they fit properly and look better.  Basically, it’s a simple way to make your clothes look more flattering.  If you’re short, have lost weight, or want to bring old clothes back to life, altering your clothes can make you look and feel better about yourself!
