TAC Tailoring Alterations & Custom Designs 501 South 17th Street, Wilmington, NC 28401

"Courtney did an amazing job on my wedding dress alterations! The dress needed a bit of work. It had to be taken in... a lot, delicate lace material repaired, hemmed, and straps tightened, etc. She is very knowledgeable and talented in her field of work. Things I thought to be impossible to achieve, she was able to easily do. She also has a great personality and fun to chat with during fittings. She gave me great advice for day of wedding and helped brain storm different shoe ideas, hem lengths, etc based on the venue location and environment. Overall I couldn't have been more pleased with my dress, and felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day with her help."

"I could not recommend Courtney more. It is very clear she is incredible at what she does- she is also fun to hang out with! My wedding dress fit like a glove!!!"

"Courtney is the absolute best! I would recommend her to anyone needing alterations in the Wilmington area. I purchased my wedding dress out of state and was really nervous about finding someone local to tailor it. My wedding planner recommended Courtney and I could not be happier- she was SO much fun to talk to during the fitting appointment and her obvious expertise and background from FIT totally put me at ease. When I went to pick up my dress, it fit PERFECTLY and looked flawless, but the straps were slightly too long. She said she could fix that in only two days time and even offered to drop it off to me or meet me halfway vs having me come back to her shop. She is the best! Look no further for any tailoring needs!!"

"I don’t know how she did it, fueled by pure talent and probably some caffeine Courtney pulled off a miracle and that’s putting it lightly! I had lost over 60 pounds by the time I got my dress back from the shop I originally ordered it from, and after searching online I found TAC located so close to home! I messaged Courtney gave her all the details and set up an appointment. The dress although still gorgeous did not fit at all, the lace didn’t fall in any of the correct places nor did the dress even stay up. Courtney took out over 11 inches from my dress and completely remade it. She first took off all the lace, somehow found all the hidden seams and explained how she would take it in a bit in each area to reshape the whole dress. Talent pure talent. Seeing the dress coming along at each fitting gave me so much reassurance not only to trust the process but to trust Courtney, best decision ever. The dress could not have fit any better for the day of, it was better than I could have ever imagined and she truly saved the day! People make dresses every day but to take apart a dress and find out ways to size mesh, fit the open back, and reshape a whole lace corset style top?! Magic. Courtney is so reassuring and has such a fun energy around her she turned a stressful process into so much fun from the first visit! You will not be disappointed with any work that comes from TAC, she pulled off a miracle for me and I know she can for you as well! Thank you Courtney for absolutely everything!"

"Courtney turned my bridesmaid maid dress from basic to stunning. The back of the dress had ugly elastic which she removed and made it my dream dress. She was such fun to work with and I will be bringing any other dress to her. I live 5 and a half hours away and I will be driving down again to see her with my next dress! Added below is a before and after. The before the back had an elastic that made it seem like I had back rolls, the straps were far too long, and the slip and skirt were not attached. After the dress fits perfectly."
