Long story but I'll keep it short. I bought my dress in PA by my FSIL's house. I love the dress and it was a great price. Well, at the final fitting it was a mess - they did a horrible job. We left and my mom has since spoke to the owner several times and they are 'working' on it. I am now taking off Thursday to go down there and see if its done - if not I'm taking it and I will have to get it fixed up here. (Originally my FMIL was going to bring it up with her the day of the RD). I don't have a good seamstress on LI - any suggestions?? My wedding is in 10 days!!!

Septemberbride03,
From a fellow 9/20/03 bride. Try Effe at the Bridal Suite of Huntington -- she worked on the alterations on my wedding dress(I did not buy my dress there but she did a great job).
I did have some issues w/ the shop but all the alterations for my dress and the bridemaid dresses are fine.

I'm using Karin Yngvesdotter as my seamstress www.yngvesdotter.com . (My dress needs to be altered from an 8 to a 2 - eek!) I chose her due to all of her great reviews on these boards. She is in Queens and is very nice to work with!

Where are you looking. Try Ingrid - Not sure of her phone number but she is very good. Her shop is located on 25A in Setauket (corner of 25A and Bennett Road.)

Re: I need a seamstress!
If you want FM me where you live, I have a friend who knows an excellent seamstress, and we have one at my job who is really good and in the business. If I know where you are, I can find out who would be close to you.
