Bridal Gowns, customizing, and Upcycling

Bridal alterations-  I require a three month window to perform alterations on bridal gowns, with some exceptions.  The fee for bridal under 10 weeks is $150 added to the price of alterations, with some exceptions. There is a fee schedule for bridal coming in under a month posted in the under a week fees page. Bridal alterations are $70/hr and appointments are $40/hr. I time all work and appointments so that you will pay only for the time spent, not a flat rate.

Custom, contract, and upcycling projects are charged hourly. The rate is $70/hr. 

I accept credit cards on all orders over $50. I also accept payment by Venmo.
