![]() She is very detail oriented in her work so give yourself at least a couple of months lead time. And I know she is very busy, but I never felt rushed when going to see her, which is important for one of the biggest events of your life! ![]() Posted By: A Y. From Yelp |

![]() | ![]() Selene was only the second place I went in for an initial consultation and I instantly knew it was the better choice. Vicky gives a fair price and doesn't try to rack up the cost by itemizing unnecessary areas of alterations. She was also super communicative with her plan of attack and made sure the dress still felt comfortable for me with every proposed change during our initial consultation and two follow-up fittings. In response to an earlier review - when Vicky first hemmed the bottom of my dress, she also lightly stitched the length 2 inches shorter than necessary. This was 100% fine because it was easy for her to let the stitches out (no fabric is ever cut) and the final hemming was PERFECT. To future clients, remember that the alteration process is indeed a process and just trust the professionals! I loved the final product and felt beautiful AND comfortable on my wedding day, all thanks to Selene Alteration! ![]() Posted By: Ivy Z. From Yelp |

![]() | ![]() I called to get a price quote in late September for my destination wedding on November 30th. I was asked to come in first with the dress and was accommodated for an appointment a day or two later. Totally reasonable policy and very quick scheduling. When I arrived, it seemed like Vicki was waiting for me to arrive so I felt the attention was there. My dress is a size 12, but needed to be taken in around the chest, waist, and bustled. Vicki very kindly suggested that maybe the straps be shortened and the area around my hips be let out to ensure it was perfect (she also agreed to check first if there was any material to let it out). I agreed to it. Again, her suggestions and price seemed totally reasonable. She didn't push me and was really kind the whole time. Honestly, I think the price would have been similar anywhere else, I just really liked her energy and the fact that she and I were on the same page. At my first appointment, we scheduled two more fittings plus the pick up date within the next six weeks. She expressed wanting to have the dress ready at least ten days before I traveled just in case. I hadn't even thought about the timing so I liked that she made this suggestion and it made me feel way more at ease. The second appointment (first fitting) went well. She made minor changes and asked that I examine the dress closely. Then she proceeded to explain what her next steps were going to be. Again, I appreciated her transparency and calmness. The third appointment (second fitting) was probably the one with the most change and I really liked how it was coming together. The alterations around the chest where perfect (there was plenty to take in from the sides), as where the hips, and length. She immediately noticed the straps needed more and she got to pinning. She asked how I felt about the additional alterations and I agreed. For my final appointment and pick up I brought my mother in law. Vicki encouraged me to bring someone and I'm glad I did. It was super special to share that moment with her. Vicki had me walk, dance, wave, sit, stand, (all of the things), with my dress on to ensure it was perfect. Again, the level of transparency and experience was evident. I felt like she was using any and all scenarios to help me which I thought was super kind. I had a wonderful experience at Seline's. Everything was exactly as Vicki laid out for us. There were no surprises, she was punctual with the completion of the dress, my appointments were efficient and fruitful (no double booking), and she was genuinely really great to work with. I loved that it was woman owned and that she's been in the industry and neighborhood for as long as she has. I strongly recommend working with Seline's for your dress needs! ![]() Posted By: Jennifer G. From Yelp |
![]() My sister got her dress altered by Selene last year for her destination wedding, and she couldn't stop singing her praises. I remember my sister's dress looked great and I asked her where she got it altered and she recommended Selene; this was last April. Lo and behold (and quite out of the blue) I got engaged in August, and one of the first things I bought was my dress. The place where I got my dress actually had pretty bad reviews regarding their alterations department, so without wanting to take that chance I called Selene right up. From the very beginning she was so sweet and accommodating, and I was confident that I was in good hands each time I went for a fitting. Selene knew exactly where my dress needed some work, and always did everything with a smile on her face. I received a lot of compliments on my dress, and despite the many take-ins it needed, Selene made it work and I was totally happy with the final outcome! Please go to Selene to have your dress altered, you will not be disappointed! She's sweet, Greek, and just plain fabulous :-) ![]() Posted By: Sarah A. |
