Altered for the Altar did a wonderful job on my wedding dress! They were recommended by my bridal shop. They listened to my concerns and were very patient when I made a decision on the type of bustle. Everyone was so friendly and made me feel so confident in my dress. Definitely recommend! -

I absolutely loved my dress. But I wanted long lace custom sleeves, a bustle and hemming of several complicated layers of horse hair material. They did this flawlessly. I had 4 alterations appointments with them, as they triple checked what I wanted throughout the entire process. They added a gusset so I could have my long lace sleeves but also had the freedom of movement I needed to dance and raise my arms with no tension (a longstanding issue as a girl with bigger arms). They also celebrated me in each appointment, offering consistent excitement to keep me going. I felt like a princess and would recommend 100%. -

I had SUCH an amazing experience here! From the moment I walked in the door, I felt so comfortable. I was nervous to leave my dress with "just" anyone-- but they made it so easy. I loved that Ruth encouraged me to ask questions or point out concerns-- it really helped having her guidance to make decisions about where to alter the dress. For me, it was worth every single penny. I will absolutely use them in the future for any special occasion!! -

Amazing Work!
The team at Altered for the Altar are truly amazing! From calling to schedule my first fitting to taking home my dress, the process was seamless! EVERY employee I interacted with was friendly, professional, and genuinely excited for my Wedding Day. Between my first fitting and my last fitting, I lost over 25lbs. They made sure I felt comfortable and looked amazing on my Big Day! My Fiancé (now Husband) cried the moment he saw me walk into the Chapel and whispered that my dress looked perfect. I have Altered for the Altar to thank for that moment! -

I originally purchase my dress from a boutique in Tulsa, OK, and had taken my dress to their local recommended tailor. After ordering the size the boutique recommended, I took it to the tailor and after 30 minutes of struggling, we were unable to get the dress to fit. I left the appointment in tears, and decided, on the recommendation of two friends who had used AFTA, to take my dress here instead (I live in Rockwall, TX, so this was more convenient as well). During my first appointment they were able to zip the dress up (though it was a bit tight) and quelled any anxiety I had about not being able to wear my dress for my wedding day. They saw how worried I was about my dress situation, and were nothing but supportive and kind. I left the appointment feeling worlds better than I did coming in. They were able to fit the dress to me perfectly, I would recommend them to all brides! -

AFTA was incredible. Having your dress during a pandemic certainly isn't easy. AFTA made me feel safe while I was in their shop for my fittings and they did a wonderful job on my gown. My hips are larger than my bust, so my gown needed to be taken in up top and they nailed it! -

I don’t even know where to begin. Altered for the Alter is your go to place. My dress fit perfectly! They listened to what I wanted and made sure I was comfortable before I left the store after each fitting. I always felt like a friend when I was in their shop. They were so kind and genuine. They would always ask me about my wedding and really invested in me. Your wedding dress is extremely special, take it somewhere where you can trust it will be done correctly and cared for. They even sewed some of my mom’s lace into my dress. Their prices are fair for the service you receive. I never once doubted that my dress wouldn’t be perfect. I could go on all day about this company! I suggest at least meeting with them to see what they can do for you! -

I bought my dress from BHLDN and wanted to add a bustle and a belt to the dress. Altered for the Altar did an amazing job on the additions! They were very helpful and quickly made one change on the day of the final fitting. Super easy to work with! -

Incredible custom built sleeves!
I cannot Say enough good things about Altered for the Altar! This mother/daughter run business did a perfect job! I added custom built sleeves to a nearly strapless dress, and it was so easy with them. I was able to order additional lace from the dress designer for them to use. I showed them where i wanted the sleeves to hit and they absolutely nailed it on the first go! They helped me turn it into my absolute dream dress and i cannot recommend them enough! -

Highly recommend!
Beautiful place. Staff was very kind and very accommodating. I asked Ruth if she could incorporate a piece of my dad’s police uniform (as my something blue) and she did so gladly! I would recommend for any alterations! My dress turned out beautifully.

Amazing experience!
The mother and daughter combo are the perfect match to make sure your dress fits the way you want it! They have such kindness and knowledge to make sure you look stunning on wedding day! I had three appointments and the dress progressed through each appointment to make sure the fit was right on wedding day. I can truly say my dress was everything I wanted and it wouldn’t have been that way without them. Thank you for making my dream dress mine! I’ll be back for any future alterations needed! -

So glad that I found Altered for the Altar! I found the perfect dress with very delicate lace. However, when it initially came in, it buckled in the chest area. I tried it on and immediately started crying, I was terrified that it wouldn’t be able to be fixed without messing up the lace. Both my photographer and florist recommended Altered for the Altar and I’m so glad they did. I was put at ease at my first appointment and knew my dress was in the right hands. They did a wonderful job; my dress fit like a glove when they were finished with it. So glad I found them!! -

Tiffany Sent on 10/12/2019Great job!
The ladies at Altered for the Altar are very attentive, all while being quick and efficient. I needed my dress taken in, hemmed, and the lace sleeves brought in. It’s a little nerve-racking when you see your dress in the middle stages (during the second phase) when it’s in the process of being altered, but I was very excited at the last fitting to see the final product. Everything fit perfectly. Thanks for doing a great job! -

Casey Sent on 10/23/2019So thankful for Altered for the Altar!!
I am so happy that I chose to get my dress altered at Altered for the Altar! They worked with my busy schedule and helped to get me in for my three dress fittings. I was a bit clueless to the alterations process for a wedding dress, and they made it all simple and easy for me to understand. They were so helpful in making little changes that I wanted to my dress and gave me options for alterations that I would have never thought about! They were extremely professional and helped me feel comfortable and confident about their work through the whole process. I had a very long train and intricate details all over my dress that I was concerned how they would look after alterations, but they blew me away with how amazing the dress looked. And they made is so easy for me and my bridesmaids to understand how to bustle my dress properly. On the day of the wedding, the dress fit like a glove and I could not have asked for my dress to have looked any better on me. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to get their wedding dress altered. Thank you so much for taking such great care of me and my dress!! -

This place was amazing, made you feel special right when you walked in the door. Several places wouldn’t alter my Hayley Paige gown, but they stepped up and did an amazing job, my dress looked gorgeous. I was able to meet the ladies who worked on my dress and they were just as happy to see me in it as I was. -
