Elena and her team at Sokayri did an amazing job altering my wedding dress, which I purchased from Anthropologie. I didn’t need the dress taken in or out, but I requested some more complex & labor-intensive alterations. For my dress, she shortened it & made it floor length so it wouldn’t drag as we were getting married at an intimate ceremony in the park. The shortening process involved separating the dress into two pieces. I also wanted to add something in the bust area to make it less busty, and she came up with an excellent solution.

Elena is extremely classy, and you can tell she cares deeply about her work. She spent an hour with me in the first meeting to pin the dress and go over everything in detail, and at the end, she gave me a thorough estimate and went over the pricing. About a month later, she was done, and I came back & she spent another hour with me to go over everything and make sure I was 100% satisfied.

As a side note, the space for the boutique is so cute, well-decorated, and tastefully done.

I would highly recommend Elena & her team to any bride looking for alterations. In other reviews, I have noticed people have commented about the pricing. I have no regrets on what I paid & working with Elena. She clearly prides herself in her work. Also, as I detailed above, I requested some complex changes to the dress, and those changes take a lot of time. Honestly, assuming it took someone 15 - 30 hours to do the changes, my total roughly translated to about $50/hr - $100/hr. Alterations are a skilled job, and they should be paid for their time. I think it’s reasonable to charge that for the work being done. Keep that in mind when you go into the process.

I highly recommend going here for your alterations! You will not regret it.

Elena and her team are amazing. My dress was altered to perfection. I felt amazing in my dress and was so happy with the results. Elena is also so sweet - she called me as soon as she saw pictures of my wedding to check in. I just dropped my dress off for cleaning and preservation as well. I highly recommend going here - you will not be disappointed!

I had the pleasure of working with Sokayri Atelier for my bridal alterations, and they couldn’t have done a better job. I wore a silk slip-style gown, and Danilo provided expert opinion on how to handle the fabric (including letting me know risks of certain alterations, which I appreciated so much) and added the most gorgeous subtle and sleek French bustle. Beyond that, the weather on my wedding day caused a lot of water and mud damage on the bottom of my dress and shoes (see pics), and Sokayri was able to get the dress and shoes almost like new again! It was really an incredible job done. I trust Elena and Danilo with any alterations, tailoring, or cleaning I could ever need - they are artists and incredibly skilled. Highly recommend!
