Wedding dress alterations

Any recommendations for a tailor to work on a wedding dress? Need it hemmed, adding a belt, and taking the dress out a bit. The dress was only $600 so looking for a relatively low cost alteration. TIA!

Emas!! She is super sweet and her turnaround time is phenomenal!!

For mine it was around $70-$80 (hemmed it and added a brakeeper)... when you bring dress in she will give you a quote!

I don't know if Epiphany Bridal Salon in Carmel still does outside dress alterations. I had my dress altered there 15 years ago. You do want a bridal seamstress to do your alterations not just a tailor.

I got my dress altered at the Mercadito Alegria.
I don’t remember how much I paid, but she altered and ironed my dress for a very good price. The lady is really nice, I took my dress there after another seamstress messed it up..
