My Daughter's Wedding III — Local services in Town of North Hempstead

This is where you should have your wedding dress altered. No question.

I live in Manhattan and was getting married in Long Island and did a detailed desk top search and then did a tailor "tour" trying on my dress for various tailors. MDW III was the most professional, they seemed to be experts, and they knew the time, care and detail that goes into a wedding dress. Lastly, they are around the corner from the Great Neck Train station and have amenable hours, so I was able to easily hop on the LIRR train after work on weekdays for fittings.

My dress turned out to be far more complicated that anyone originally thought. I bought the dress off the rack and it fit fairly well. I needed a hem, the removal of a tiny stain, and perhaps a little bit of body work. Over the course of the tailoring process I lost about 10-15lbs and Yon managed this process seamlessly. She went above and beyond what I could have ever asked for, sewing in cups in the bodice and an additional support structure within the waist area of the dress. The dress also had a flowy layered structure, and Yon was able to match that look instead of doing the hem to maintain the look and feel of the dress. My dress (see photos) looked amazing and fit perfectly.

Most importantly, they really care about their work and the dress fitting perfectly. This was comforting and I trusted them completely. Jessica and Yon also provided moral support throughout the tailoring and over the time we...

I know I seem all over the place with my opinion of this store but I have my reasons. The sales lady Sandy was a sweetheart, our jewelry was great quality so Thank you for that. Please ladies..try on your dress the last day you pick it up!! Mine was wrapped up and pressed on Friday..the wedding was Sunday! I helped dress my beautiful daughter..my make up and hair done and put the dress on!!! Now the dress orginally was half off the shoulder cap sleeves. I just wanted the cap sleeves to sif a bit higher not to show my bra strap!! Well..I put this dress on and she closed up the back of the lace so tightly that it changed the entire dress!!! She had pulled the back arms so high and unattractive that every second I wore it..(being turned into an empire waist with shieering under my bust) I was so uncomfortable and looked pregnant at 50_ But the delight of seeing my stunningly beautiful daughter and the young man who adores her made my dress irrelevant!! Try your dresses on right till the end and make sure they fix it to YOUR liking, I felt uncomfotable and on such a special day..I didn't feel I looked or felt my best Hope this helps!!.Congrats..Mamie..ps I took the furs back we borrowed and took the dress back as well and donated it to a 5 foot women..I am 5"7"!! I just couldn't look at it hanging in any closet at home..I hope it looks better on someone else so if you need a black dress..go to this store and ask for the...

This past Saturday I celebrated my wedding. I bought my dress last year at Macy’s and intended to get it altered there because I assumed that it what most people did. My best friend told me I MUST go to Yan as she has had dresses altered from her before. I decided to take my chances and my god did I make the right decision! Not only do I now call Yan the “dress surgeon” but she completely transformed my already beautiful dress into the most amazing item I have ever worn. She took her time every single dress fitting making me feel comfortable and guiding me throughout the entire process. I even decided 2 weeks before the wedding to add sleeves onto the dress and Yan did a flawless job! I have never felt so beautiful then I did on my wedding night. I want to also mention how amazing Tiffany was! Tiffany was with Yan and I every single fitting and was absolutely amazing!!! This is the ONLY place you should be getting your dress altered. Thank you...
