Hi - I am seeking a recommendation for a very experienced wedding dress seamstress, preferably near the central CT area.  I did not purchase my dress in a bridal salon so I must use an independent seamstress.

Thank you in advance!

    I plan to use Campus Tailoring on William Street in Middletown. The seamstress is this little old Italian lady named Albina. I recently had her hem a dress I'm wearing as a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding, and I was really impressed with the quality of her work - so will definitely be taking my wedding gown to her.

    She charged $50 for the hem, it was 3 layers of fabric. She had it done within 3 weeks.

    The only potential downfall are her hours, I guess. Her shop is open from 9:00(ish) to 5:00 during the week, and for a few hours on Saturday (till noon maybe?). Luckily my job is understanding and they let me come in late/leave early if I need to.
