We Prefer In-Person Estimates
In-person consultations also help ensure the best final result for your dress.
Because every wedding dress is unique, it can be difficult to provide accurate quotes over the phone or by text message alone.
We kindly encourage brides to visit us with their dress so Martha can carefully examine the fabric, structure, fit, and required alterations in person. This allows us to provide the most accurate estimate possible and properly discuss what can be done for your gown.
