Bridal Dressmaker/Seamstress in Davis or Boston-area?

[magpie-leah.livejournal.com]

Hello! Has anyone had a really good experience with a bridal dressmaker in the area? Davis Sq or Boston-area generally? My wedding is 2 months away and my vintage wedding dress just recently suffered some damage. (Boo!) It needs a good amount of overhauling to be fixed but the design of the dress is very simple. So I don't think it will be too hard. Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated!

Try weegoddess. She's fabulous and very knowledgeable and is currently making dresses for several brides I know.

weegoddess is starting up a wedding dress making business as I type. Talk to her.

I hear The Altered Bride (http://www.alteredbride.com/) is perfect for this sort of thing. Full disclosure: I have no personal experience with this business, and I never talked about pricing with the satisfied customers I know.

Hey there - ceo (bless his heart) pointed me to you. I am indeed starting up a dress-making business (just finished piecing together a bodice, in fact.)

I haven't been taking on any new projects since I'm trying to concentrate on getting these prototypes finished, but I might be able to help you out if it isn't too too involved/time consuming. My email is weegoddessATcomcastDOTnet if you want to email me directly.

Hi there! I just tried shooting you an e-mail (i'm thinking of getting a dress made), but the e-mail bounced back. Are you still making dresses? Is there a new e-mail where I can contact you? THANKS!

Heya - sure, I'm at lori AT consciouselegance.co.uk ( www.consciouselegance.co.uk is my website if you want to see the sort of thing I do. If you have any trouble getting to me with the above email addy, you can always contact me through the website).

I'm also finding it incomprehensible that you and I don't seem to share any friends at all. Wow, I didn't realise that Somerville was that big.

;-D
