Highly Recommend

I brought my BHLDN wedding dress to Widad and she did amazing work on it! She is so sweet and truly cares about you and your big day. My dress turned out beautifully, thanks to Widad’s passion and expertise. She offered her advice, while always making you a part of the decision-making process for alterations. My dress was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS for my big day and I am so thankful I brought it to Widad!

Amazing Seamstress

Widad accommodated my last minute request to meet with her. I wasn't aware that I was supposed to get my dress altered months before the wedding. I contacted Widad 2 weeks before my wedding and I needed alteration for my dress and my mom's dress.

When she agreed to alter our dresses, she explained why she charges the way she does. It was nice to hear in detail why some areas of my dress needed work and why some didn't need any work. She also explained the process of having multiple fittings. I love how straightforward she is. When I came in for my second fitting, she was done with my mom's dress and it fit her the way she wanted it to fit her. Widad base stitched 8 inches on my dress and made sure I was able to walk in it before she was gonna cut it. I felt safe leaving my dress with her. During my final fitting, my dress fit like a glove. I couldn't imagine anyone else altering my dress.
