Have you ever had that person in your life that comes to you and says, "Oh sweetie, I would love for you to wear my dress for your wedding!"
You scramble in your mind to think of a nice way to tell them, this is not really the dream gown you had in mind! After all, the Princess Bride look was not really on your radar. Well worry no more!
Sew 4 you has got you covered! 
​
As a bridal gown alteration business we have done many transformations, but we would like to focus on this recent bride we had the pleasure of working with.
​
Jennifer Robbins came in to our shop in May of this year. She brought in her soon to be Mother-in-Law's dress to be transformed into her dream gown. Jennifer had a good enough eye to know that the silhouette of the dress was exactly what she was looking for. She did NOT want the puffy sleeves, the high neckline, the big bow on the derriere, or the full skirt that she could probably fit both of her ring bearer and flower girl underneath. Hey, that would be a cute idea! Have the children walk out from under the dress! Oh, never mind I am getting of track... Anyway, Amy saw the same vision that Jennifer saw, so our fairy-Godmothers began to work their magic.

We created a Key-hole back opening to provide a bit of sexiness to the dress. Jennifer was thrilled with the transformation of her mother-in-laws dress! Jennifer was so gracious, after the wedding she brought in this great picture that featured the transformation and contained pictures of her mother-in-law in the dress back on her wedding day!
I would have to say this was another dress success!!
