  Can anyone recommend someone to put a bustle on a wedding dress? Preferably local.

  

  Meg S. replied:

  Isabel is not local (located in Columbia, MD) but I highly recommend her. She was beyond amazing with my difficult wedding dress. http://www.isabeldonnelly.com/

  Sarah F. asked:

  Hello! I am looking for a seamstress who is capable of working with 80 year old heavy satin fabric. It is my dream to wear the dress that both my mother and grandmother wore. They were both significantly smaller than myself so I didn't think it was possible/cost effective to alter it and conceded that a new dress was the way to go. After trying 80 dresses I think it is time to succumb to the fact that I can't find what I am looking for in a store. I would love to cut the bottom of the dress off and turn it into a tea length skirt possibly with a slight high low hem line. The satin has yellowed and will need cleaning. This dress has been wore by grandmother, mother, and two aunts. It has more sentimental value than I can possibly express. I am scared to death that someone will ruin the fabric. Does anyone have any recommendations on an amazing seamstress?

  Holly E. asked:

  Anyone have recommendations for a good seamstress? I need alterations to a wedding gown.

  

  Jessica C. replied:

  I just had the best experience for my September wedding. A wonderful lady named Isabel has her own home studio. She's in Elkridge, right off 100. She loves weddings and you can tell! She's a little pricier than other places, but her work is incredible. She even redid my bustle without charging me because she thought it should be a 1/2" lower! I HIGHLY recommend her. http://www.isabeldonnelly.com/

  Hi neighbors! I'm looking for 2 services. If anyone has a recommendation for either, I would appreciate it. 1. I need a seamstress to alter a bridesmaid dress. 2. I am looking for a babysitter for my infant son for occasional Mommy and Daddy evenings out. I would prefer someone in college or late high school. Thanks!

  Hannah B. asked:

  ISO a good seamstress around Odenton. I went to Davids bridal and had a horrible experience. I have no idea where to even start when it comes to getting my dress altered and it is very form fitting so I don't want it to look frumpy in the wrong areas. My wedding is June 17th. Please help!

  Laur E. asked:

  Looking for a great and affordable seamstress near Columbia, MD (Howard County / Montgomery County) to get my wedding dress altered. Also, does anyone know the average cost of an alteration? I should just need the sides pulled in and the bottom hemmed (though I'll obviously let the professional decide). Just wondering what price range I should expect. :) Thanks!

  

  Katie W. replied:

  Isabel Donnelly is in Columbia- she is great! She is pretty much taking apart my mom's wedding dress and rebuilding it to fit me. http://www.isabeldonnelly.com/
