An independant seamstress is available for your convenience on
Wednesday and Thursdays by appointment at our store and with the proper undergarments and shoes. Other alteration specialists
can be referred to you to make appointments directly with them.
Bridal store staff does not quote alteration
prices. We are not responsible for any seamstresses policies, pricing and workmanship.
Payment is expected
at the final fitting, preferred in cash and payable directly to the seamstress. The seamstress will
quote you a price based on what alterations are required at the time you meet for your pinning session.
If
you would like us to press your gown purchased at another store, but tailored by one of our recommended seamstresses,
there will be an additional cost and payable to Expressions In Silk Bridal. 48 hours or more notice is required
to ensure the gown is added to our pressing schedule.
Cell phones MUST be turned off during your alterations appointment as a courtesy to give the seamstress
the attention needed during your visit.
Alterations by Clara schedules on-site appointments on Wednesdays 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
and Thursdays 4 to 7:30 p.m. at our store. Based on the volume of customers, we do ask that you please adhere to the
30 minute timeframe and come prepared with undergarments and shoes. If a party is coming in together, please let us
know to allow 30 minutes per person.
Appointments are recommended at
least 2 to 4 weeks before the wedding or if you are on a tight timeline, as soon as the dress arrives to ensure your garment
is ready in time.
Children and strollers
Our facility can not accommodate strollers and in order to keep to Clara's 30 minute appointment
schedule, we ask that your children not be brought during alterations appointments as we do not provide staff
to supervise children.
