Alterations at Evas in Orland Park

Hi all... so Evas offered me free alterations at their store... just wondering if their alteration department is good at what they do! Any input is helpful! Thanks.

    They did?!  Was that when they were trying to sell the dress to you?

    I ordered mine there and it should be in any day now....haven't talked to them about alterations yet.....

    I paid for alterations when I ordered my gown.  The seamstress who worked on my gown was wonderful.  I ended up with cups sewn in, had the bust and waist taken in and the length taken up.  She also created a five or six point french bustle that came out beautifully.  Very pleased wth alterations.  Feel free to take a look at my pic (in bio).  I'd say if you somehow found yourself with free alterations, you should consider yourself very lucky!

    Heres the short story on how I was offered free alterations... I know what dress I want.. Its by allure bridals and evas just started carrying their line... they don't even have the samples in yet.. Since Evas just started dealing with them they were given great deals and incentives for selling their dresses and they are passing on some of the savings to me by offering the free alterations (I'm guessing its because they are getting the dress for very cheap) but either way it doesnt matter to me.  But the free alterations were only because of the dress that I was ordering... so I guess I'm getting lucky!

    If you want/need an alternative, I have a seamstress in Orland Park who works for House of Brides, but also works for clients out of her home. She altered a BM dress for me. PM if you would like her info.
