Alterations

My MOH lives in southern MA and works in Providence and has asked me to help find her a place to get her dress for my wedding altered.  The dress was from David's Bridal, but she had a bad experience there previously and doesn't want to go back.  Does anybody have any suggestions of places that do outside bridesmaid alterations in Providence or northern RI?

Thanks!!

    (21jebstreet@gmail.com).  Meg is the seamstress from trinity Repertory Theater so is constantly doing alterations to costumes.  She did a fantastic job at the last minute with my dress.  I planned my RI wedding from Australia, but I had bought and left my dress at home with my parents.  I lost a bit of weight before the wedding and Meg did a great job taking my davids bridal dress in for a very reasonable price.  She also hemmed it by hand!  I suppose it depends on what you want done, so I'd talk to her, but I was very happy with her work on mine.

    I used Rosa Medieros out of Bristol. She had to basically take apart most of my dress because it was about 6 sizes too big. It came out PERFECTLY. Highly recommended!

    I used Rosa for other dresses (B-Party, RD, some honeymoon dresses....) and they came out great.    Per Jen's recommendation.  :)   I'll be using her for all of my dress needs now!

    I had a cocktail length BM dress and had the alterations done at A+ Tailor - across from the Warwick Mall exit/entrance.  I had the shoulders taken up and the hem shortened.  It came out great and cost less than $40.

    Defintely give Rose from Sewing Creations by Rose a call. She is AMAZING! And so affordable. She gives the best advice, and makes you feel so comfortable.
