Anyone have suggestions for an alterations service downtown? My wedding is in ***gulp*** three and a half weeks, and my dress used to fit perfectly but now needs a few tweaks. Thanks!

    I take all my stuff, wedding dress included, to Nuri's on Lincoln. Older Greek gentlemen on Lincoln just north of Irving and Damen. He's been there for over 40 years so you know he's good!

    Like the pp suggested, I would recommend Ms. Couture on Clybourn.  I took a bridesmaid dress there I had to get taken in and she did a great job.  She also did a great job on my friend's wedding dress.  Plus her prices are pretty reasonable. Just be careful, she can be slow and really pushes the deadline (she made me wait 30 min after my appointment time while she finished my dress!)...

    Thanks everyone! I went to Ms. Couture, and she said she'd be able to get it done in time!
