Hello Christa J,


We hope you had a fantastic Holiday Season. As a professional in the industry, we want to provide helpful hints and tips to my past, current, and future clients. We will be sending out emails 1-2 times per month with short and sweet sections to give you the information you need at a glance.


Our first email will cover planning for scheduling, the time it takes for garment ordering, and the alteration process. If you have any ideas or suggestions on what you would like to learn more about, please feel free to email me.


Thank you for choosing us as your trusted source for all your garment needs.


Warmly, Joy Pelt

Owner/Operator, Seamstress Designer

Helpful Hints & Tips to Scheduling


When it comes to ordering your dress or garment, it's important to plan ahead and schedule as soon as possible. Don't wait for it to arrive before making plans. This will give you peace of mind.


For brides, we recommend saying "Yes to the dress" at least 12+ months before the wedding date. Manufacturing and shipping can take 6-8 months, followed by 3-4 months for alterations.


For formal events and bridal parties, orders should be placed at least 6+ months in advance for manufacturing and shipping. Allow an additional 6-8 weeks for alterations.


If you require custom work, brides should allow an extra 1-2 months and bridal party/formal wear should allow an extra 2-4 weeks.


The only exception to the above guidelines for ordering is if you are purchasing your dress off the rack as the alteration process still remains the same either way.


As your dedicated seamstress, feel free to contact me via email, virtual number or social media if you have any questions or need guidance in planning.


Should we be booked ahead of your need, please add yourself to the self-serve waiting list.

FYI: We typically book 6-8 months ahead for wedding gown alterations and 1-2 months ahead for bridal party and other formal. Please plan ahead!
