I had Barb alter my daughter’s flower girl dress. She is very tall for her age and skinny, so the size that had the correct length was falling off of her. The woman that helped pin my daughters dress was so patient and good with my daughter that a normally aggravating process for a two year old was made easy. The dress was done quickly, and she charged me less than half of what David’s Bridal(where we purchased the dress) was going to charge me.

Barb is like having a fairy godmother. She will not fail you. The dress will fit you by the date you need it. I’ve gone there for a lot of little things, but there is one story that summarizes perfectly the reason I have such faith in Barb: I was in a wedding in July of 2007. The Bridesmaid’s dress arrived by mail WAY late. It was about a week before the wedding. When I tried this dress on, I was horrified. It didn’t fit ANYWHERE. It was at least a foot too long and drug on the floor so much that I couldn’t walk. I couldn’t even hold up the skirt to walk out of the room I’d changed in because I needed my hands to hold up the top of the dress. I could fit another half-a-person in the waist, and the chest was falling off the front of me(it was strapless). It’s important to note that I’m a big girl. I wear a DD bra. Who did they think was going to fit into this dress? Maybe Shrek. They had been sent my measurements, and they still managed to mess it up this badly. I then went to Barb… She asked what was wrong with it. Everything. When I tried it on for her, she was as shocked as I was. It wasn’t like she could take in the waist. She was going to have to take in every seam on that dress. She took my measurements and said that she would see what she could do. I picked that dress up from Barb about three days later. It was the day of the rehearsal dinner. I was shocked when I tried that thing on. That was seriously the prettiest, most well-fitted bridesmaids dress I’ve ever worn. It fit better than any formal dress(prom, wedding, etc) I’ve ever had. It was gorgeous. I felt damn fine in that dress. She is a miracle worker.
