Mother of the Bride/Groom & Bridesmaid Alterations
Ensure everyone in your bridal party feels confident and comfortable with expert alterations! Whether it's your bridesmaid or mother, I'm here to guarantee a perfect fit that will make your big day even more memorable for everyone.
We, as women, are all so hard on ourselves especially during the time of planning a wedding and not to mention the stigma behind "you must be the best version of yourself on your wedding day".
Making women feel confident in their own skin is something that I strive to do everyday. Some brides come to me nervous and anxious about what they will look like on their wedding day and leave my shop with their gown feeling self-assured and secure in themselves, and I love that I could be apart of that journey with them.
I want to do the same for you.

“Everything you could possibly ever want, have, or need is right here inside of you.”
I always get asked, "How did you learn how to do this? You're so young!"
Truth be told, I never thought that this was what I was going to do as a career, I don't think any one does. Sewing isn't really taught in schools anymore, it's not a "necessary skill" to have in this day and age of fast fashion.
I feel so lucky and grateful that I get to do what I love everyday by working with amazing women to bring their visions to life!

Meet Kirstyn
There truly is no one better than Kirstyn!
From the moment you walk into her shop you feel instant comfort! Kirstyn treats you like a friend, she listens to your desires and needs and then gives wonderful suggestions to help bring your vision to life! Her bustle was FLAWLESS! She makes you feel comfortable and heard unlike other seamstresses who just want to rush you!

Kirstyn is a creative genius!
If you have Kirstyn handle your alterations just know you are in wonderful hands. I had her add sleeves, shorten the hem, add the bustle and my very favorite part is my custom veil. I ordered a cheap veil from amazon ($30) and she used the floral appliques from my dress to create a custom veil that would match my dress beautifully. She NAILED it. She made my veil look like it was hundreds of dollars. She is fairly priced and so so so easy to work with. Do not hesitate to use Kirstyn, you will not regret it.

It was so lovely working with Kirstyn.
I’m the maid of honor in my friends wedding and the bride is very picky. Kirstyn was very professional to work with. She listened to all our wants and needs. Her work is incredible. She got it all right. All of our dresses look amazing on us. And the Bride left so happy. This was my first time working with Kirstyn but it won’t be my last!
