When we began to plan our wedding, we knew it wasn't going to be traditional. It was an Elvis wedding in Las Vegas for starters!

So no traditional wedding dress for me, I went online and fell in love with a 1950s style halterneck swing dress in scarlet with black polka dots. Ordered it, got it loved it... BUT...
It wasn't quite right. It was quite plain, didn't have any crinoline or lining and while the cut was mostly flattering, as with many things bought online, I couldn't try before I bought so the fit could have been better.

Enter Snippity Snip and Christine andf Maria. From the first time I took the dress in, they knew how to take it and make it a masterpiece. Nothing was too much effort!

Could they re-do the halter straps to make it more flattering? Of course!
Build in a crinoline underskirt and lining! Absolutely!
And the suggestions they made - boning the bodice, nips and tucks... masterful!
Best of all - Could they get it ALL done in the 2.5 weeks before we flew out to Vegas? NO PROBLEM!

My dress was STUNNING. I've had so many comments and compliments, the dress they had to work with started out nice and ended up breathtaking.

I would recommend Snippity Snip to anyone needing tailor, alteration or dressmaking services of any type and I'm sure I'll be returning many times with different projects.
