I was really looking forward to going to Susan for my wedding dress fitting based upon all the rave reviews. I knew she was going on Christmas vacation, but I thought it would be worth waiting a few weeks. However, I ignored the warning 'be wary' or 'beware' signs. While ignoring all the minute details of the unpleasant interactions via telephone and the bridal fitting visit, the fitting itself was not spectacular, nor was it professional. In addition, Susan said that she would do things for free, like fix the supposed broken zipper and hem the inner slip. After all the 'free' hemming, Susan still gave me a quote that was twice that of a reputable tailor in Raleigh. Duke's Tailors in Raleigh did a splendid job. Duke's Tailor also gave me more options for hemming. Most importantly, they gave me a fair price and showed me their price list a priori. Furthermore, I was not charged for a zipper that never needed to be replaced in the first place! Go to Susan if you want to pay twice as much for less professional work. Maybe she can do suits well, but brides beware.

Pros: Just a few blocks from where I live

Cons: Price and quality of bridal fitting

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Susan was excellent! Her service was fast and her attention to detail is impecable. I was 7 months pregnant and needed a bridesmaids dress taken out. She took the time to really look at all angles of the dress and did several minor alterations that ended up making the dress fit and feel much better. Best of all she was fast and up front about her pricing. I would definitely return!
