She is so overbooked with wedding gowns and doesn't have time for alterations. Who else does alterations?

I don't think the dry cleaners do a good job. I have gone to a non-jewish woman on Troy Ave (between Empire and Montgomery)....she isn't very expensive and she does a decent job for small things (that's all I have given her).
Also, Raices (I think that's how it is spelled, don't know her first name) on Carroll between Schnectady and .....???? geez, can't remember the name of the other street (not Troy)... Look her up in the Tzach. However, I have never used her.

(221-0017) She's very professional, and nice to her customers, people come to her from all over, not just CH! But she's usually pretty booked too! Good Luck!

what kind of alterations are u talking about? simple ones on inexpensive clothe? theres someone who works in mosdos - the gaurd or something whom all the parents bring their alterations to. he charges really little and does a pretty good job. I wouldnt bring him wedding clothes but ive seen mothers bringing their kids yom tov clothes that looked expensive. ive been happy with him and he returns it the next day or 2

I've seen his work  , just make sure that if the alterations are for tznius purposes that you are very specific about what you need done, because the fine points of closing up necklines and the like might not be self-understood. (like in closing with an added diki, he might do it straight across, instead of rounding up at sides). Or in closing a split, to add a proper kickpleat instead of just sewing it up, which doesn't give enough room.
That's why I like using a frum woman who 's knowledgeable and helpful with tznius stuff, and committed to tznius on her own..

if there is any thing too extensive, I wouldn't buy the outfit. I stick to d.ickies and sometimes taking in a neckline and the very occasional kick pleat.
thankfully I can do hems and such myself.
