Something so magical...
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Julia's Alterations is no longer taking " Satin/ Silk, Taffeta, Mikado or Brocade " dresses in as these types of fabric are really prone to fraying or working on dresses made of GLITTERY fabric.
Why did our shop stop working with glittery gowns?
The glitter on the dresses comes off very easily and gets on the white and ivory wedding gowns we are working for other customers. The glitter also irritates the eyes and skin of the employees in the shop.
Specialized in Lace, Sequins and Beadwork

How far in advance should I get my dress altered?
It's important to time your alterations right. Bring your gown in too late, and you run the risk of not allowing enough time to let the seamstress work their magic.
Due to Covid19 we are working on site with limited days and hours. Please call ahead at 508-292-6202 or fill out the
Contact web form.
We recommend allowing three to six months prior your wedding day as an ideal timeline to make all the alterations. Also keep in mind that the amount of times you need to go for fittings depends on how much you're getting done to the gown — on average, most brides go for three or four fittings.
* Note: Only use this as your guide as each dress has different needs.
* Cost estimates will vary depending upon number of layers, fabric quality, beading and lace.
Please provide plenty of time for your alterations
- 3 to 6 months -

How long does it take to make a couture wedding dress?
What normally would take at least 10 months to create a custom wedding dress from start to finish including the design and pattern-making process.
From the initial design to the wedding dress coming to life.
In fact it takes a designer, pattern-maker and seamstress
to bring the dress to life.
Around 80 hours are invested in the final dress pattern, a very laborious, hand-crafted process, which is, without a doubt, one of the keys to the success of Julia's Alterations.
