I am incredibly thankful that I had Something Wonderful alter my wedding dress. I purchased my dress from sample store, Luxe Redux where it needed hemming, repairs to the belt, and some stain corrections. Sarah was extremely helpful and efficient with providing advise to make sure my dress came out gorgeous. She was very transparent and always ran her appointments to the exact timing. I would recommend her any day to anyone wanting to entrust their wedding dress to a team that will make it fit you beautifully!

So happy I came to Sarah for my bridal alterations. I was originally recommended to go somewhere else, but after reading so many amazing reviews about Something Wonderful, I had to cancel my original alterations and pray that I would get a spot at Something Wonderful. They got me in ASAP, did an AMAZING job, and stayed within my budget! I will never trust anyone else. Thank you for letting me rely on you for my special day.

Something Wonderful was AMAZING! They were so diligent and worked so efficiently. I took my wedding dress to Something Wonderful and over the course of three appointments they took an oversized dress and made it fit me like a glove. Thank you, Something Wonderful, for making me feel so beautiful and confident on such an important day! I can’t thank you enough! I would highly highly recommend anyone getting married in the Indy area turn to Something Wonderful for their alterations needs!

Planning a wedding amidst COVID can be tough and stressful. For my fellow brides, do yourself a favor and go to Something Wonderful for your alterations: the entire experience was - as the name suggests - wonderful!I had a few ideas for how I wanted to alter my dress. When first searching out a seamstress for alterations, I was nervous if that vision would come to life. Working with Sarah made that a reality - I couldn’t be happier!Sarah is so friendly and made me feel both comfortable and beautiful in my dress. She has excellent recommendations if you ever have questions for your alterations: with Something Wonderful, you’re truly in good hands.I can’t thank Sarah and Something Wonderful enough!

I cannot say enough good things about Something Wonderful. Sarah was incredibly accommodating and kind, despite me being a rush bride. I received my gown only about 2 months before my wedding date and Sarah was so amazing about reassuring me that she could fit me in and make my dress work.When I tried on my gown for the first time after receiving it from the bridal store, I was heartbroken because the top was too small and I did not like the way I looked in it at all. Sarah got creative and found multiple solutions for my dress to make it fit and flatter in a way that I felt comfortable with. Sarah transformed my dress and made it look exactly how I dreamed, and even better with her own suggestions. Thank you so much Sarah & Something Wonderful Team.I HIGHLY recommend coming to SW if you have a wedding gown or bridesmaid dress you need altered. They are FANTASTIC: so professional, caring, and helpful.

I had my wedding dress altered with Something Wonderful and cannot recommend them enough. They did an excellent job, in a shorter timeframe, and I was really happy with the price. I heard about them through my wedding coordinator and will be using Something Wonderful moving forward. Thank you guys!

Not only did they have to do custom alterations, but they had to fix mistakes that David Bridal made on my wedding dress. Her words to me were you will feel beautiful on your wedding day, when I literally had two weeks to get part of my dress taken in. I know many other companies would have just told me theres nothing they can do; but not here. I will be taking anything I ever need altered here for as long as im in indy!

Something Wonderful did a fantastic job altering my dress for my wedding! I bought the dress from a boutique and it was rather large and far too long. Sarah was able to bring the dress in to fit me perfectly! I am SO HAPPY with how it turned out. Not only did she do my wedding dress, but she fixed up my welcome dinner dress and bathing suits. Definitely would recommend!

I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Something Wonderful. My original fitting was postponed due to the pandemic, once by wedding month rolled around (June) Sarah not only got me in but did an INCREDIBLE job despite us being extremely pressed for time. I had an idea in my head of exactly how I wanted my dress to look - I had purchased a beautiful strapless dress but wanted sleeves added - which is very complicated. Not only did Sarah create EXACTLY what I had imagined for my dress, she did it in RECORD time. The dress turned out absolutely stunning and you would never have known the sleeves had been added - it was absolutely perfect. I recommend Sarah & Something Wonderful to everyone I know. She is simply THE BEST! Thank you, Sarah!! XO

I was so happy with my experience at Something Wonderful. I had bought a sample gown online and taken it into another alterer in Indy. Unfortunately, after my alterations were complete and I was told the dress looked good with nothing else needing to be done, I left with a rather roomy bust area for my small chest and the disappointment of thinking that my not very well fitting dress was as good as it was going to get. Thankfully, my mother found Something Wonderful and we were able to get the dress in and worked on at the last minute before my wedding a few weeks later. Sarah did an amazing job and was able to make my dress fit like a glove. I am so thankful for my experience and for having been able to wear the dress of my dreams on my wedding day!

I came in with my wedding dress about a month before the big day with some botched alterations. Not only did she fix the mistakes I spotted from my previous alterations, but she also found more places where the dress had been poorly handled. I couldn’t believe how quickly she turned this dress around and how beautiful it turned out! Best wedding decision I ever made! I will definitely be back with other alterations!

I would definitely recommend Sarah for all your wedding alterations. She was so sweet, easy to communicate with for schedule alteration sessions, and exceeded my expectations! And she made me feel beautiful! I had a built in belt on my dress and wanted to replace it with another belt I bought. She had the wonderful idea of taking those appliqués and putting them on my veil. It was so pretty!

Sarah did an amazing job with my wedding gown! She wouldn’t let me take it home until it was absolutely perfect! She did amazing work altering the neck line of my gown. She was very personable and friendly during each appointment. I would HIGHLY recommend her!

I want to preface this review by saying customer service is PARAMOUNT, in the wedding industry. If you are a bride looking for someone to make your dress fitting an experience, to make you feel good or to make the dress altered to fit your body, just go somewhere else. There are literally TONS of other people who are happy to do your alterations and make you feel heard and important; the ways a bride should feel! The lack of professionalism and frank rudeness I encountered from the owner is something I have never experienced in a professional environment. My second fitting was mid-June and I arrived with my friend, masks in hand. I was told that only I could come inside with a mask (which is fine), but my friend asked if she could open the blinds on the door so she could see from outside the closed door. She was told rudely, The blinds are open; neither friendly nor accommodating. When I got inside, she told me thats why I sent you a text message regarding visitors. I never received such text message and had no idea about visitation policies; if I had, I most certainly would have come alone. During the fitting, I was told, thats not the way the dress is made, we would have to restructure the entire dress for a minor bust adjustment. When I asked why the top looked the same and nothing had been done after three months she replied, “Well let me pin it! (Although it had already been pinned at the bust three months ago).” Being a bride during COVID, a lot of us have had stressful times trying to reschedule and postpone things. After three months of not seeing my dress at the second fitting, the only thing that had been done was a minor hem to the inner lining and the skinny boning/breast padding (the simple kind that goes in your average swimsuit top) was removed; thats it. This is after our first fitting when we discussed what the top needed to look like and how excited I was to see the dress at the second fitting with the top reconstructed. During an email correspondence to reschedule my second fitting, she even remarked, Your dress is coming along great. Ultimately, I chose to pull my dress from her service due to the lack of professionalism, lack of progress to my dress and utter rudeness I experienced throughout my two fittings. I paid for the minor work that was done, was refunded the rest of the money that I paid in advance and charged a cancellation fee. I was quoted $650 dollars for my dress (I ending up paying $250 for another seamstress to alter it). When my friend went to pick the dress up for me in her sunroom, the dress was in its bag, draped over a chair (come on, at least hang it on something), and not one foot away from the dress was a bag of dog poop! I mean you really cant make this stuff up. It was disgusting and just goes to show how unprofessional this owner presents herself, especially during this global pandemic when cleanliness is so important. My ultimate advice; go to someone who makes you feel good any happy with your dress! Life is too short to have your dress done be someone who makes you uncomfortable and makes you feel as if you are putting them out for providing a service for you. Side note: I went to another seamstress the next day, and a few minor adjustments were made during my 30 min fitting and the dress already fits like a glove; the way it should be! Long story short: overrated, expensive; spend your time and energy elsewhere.

Sarah was wonderful to work with on altering my wedding dress. She gave me her honest opinion on how to make my dress look it’s best on me. She also gave me advice on how to travel with my dress to our destination wedding! My dress looked absolutely amazing and fit perfectly on my wedding day! Sarah really pays attention to detail. When I went in for my last fitting, she noticed that the lace didn’t line up perfectly on the bottom of the dress (which is something I probably would have never noticed) and insisted on fixing it because she wanted it to be perfect! I truly admired that about her and really appreciated that she noticed it and wanted to fix it. She went above and beyond and I’m so thankful!

My wedding dress alterations were absolutely perfect!! There were a handful of things I wanted to change about my dress and Sarah was so helpful in telling me what could be done and made sure I was completely happy with how my dress fit and looked. She also made me the most beautiful veil! Cant recommend this place enough!

Sara did a phenomenal job on my dress and my daughter-n-law’s wedding dress. It was a difficult wedding gown to alter, and Sara was able to make it fit perfectly. Thank you Something Wonderful!

I would definitely recommend Sarah at Something Wonderful to anyone looking for wedding dress alterations. She did a perfect job with my wedding dress. I had bought a dress that was a size 12, and I am a size 2 and under 5 feet tall. I was worried that my dress would not be able to be altered to fit my unique shape. However, Sarah did an amazing job! And she was very thorough! She had me come in for a total of 5 appointments, just to make sure that she got my dress exactly right. I could not have been happier with the final product. I got so many compliments on my dress and how well it fit me. She is a miracle worker! :)

Sarah was amazing from beginning to end. Every appointment she eased any concerns I had about what I would look like in my wedding dress. She does impeccable work and I was so thankful to have her make my wedding gown perfect. I even had her alter some jeans for me too! I would highly recommend her!!

Sarah did an AMAZING job with my wedding dress. The appointments were efficient, friendly, and she really listened to what I wanted. The dress was absolutely perfect and seemed like it was custom-made from the beginning! She even fixed alterations for my moms dress that were done at Nordstrom. I cannot say enough about how great Something Wonderful is!!!

She did a great job. I had an oddly cut bridesmaid dress and she turned it into something I would actually wear again. Making an appointment was also very fast.

After purchasing my wedding dress, Something Wonderful was recommended to me for alterations and minor repairs. I had purchased my dress from Luxeredux bridal a couple of miles away, so some small things needed to be fixed on the sample gown I purchased on top of alterations.I cannot give higher praise for the work that performed on my dress. Absolutely fabulous, and my dress needed substantial alterations due to weight loss from a change in medication between the time I purchased my dress to the time I went in for my first fitting. I would hands down without a second thought request the services of Something Wonderful again for formal attire alterations.Thank you, Sarah!

Where do I start. They are fantastic. I wanted to take my train off of my strapless dress and make it into sleeves. The process was seemless and so quick! Thank you so much for making my dress perfect!

These two ladies are life savers. After a last minute dress change for our wedding, they did a magnificent 3-day dress alteration before the wedding, and THEN when we had a zipper come off, they fit me in to get it repaired the next morning the day before the wedding.Very skilled, very kind, and absolutely would recommend them to anyone.

Sarah is flexible, helpful, and talented beyond compare. She promptly responded to my initial inquiry, scheduled me in quickly, and had my dress done in a very timely manner. The alterations were perfectly executed after the initial fitting. I’d recommend to anyone and everyone!

Sarah is magical! I have no idea how she does what she does! My dress was huge and had so much bead work, mesh, sparkles, buttons, you name it and she altered it to my size beautifully!

Sarah from Something Wonderful is absolutely who you should trust with your wedding dress alteration needs! I came to her after a disastrous experience with someone who was certainly not an expert on wedding gowns and I learned it the hard way. I had only a week to leave for my destination wedding and a dress that was still ill-fitting. What she did in essentially two business days for a first fitting is unbelievable! She is truly a proffessional and saved my wedding day. It was a pleasure working with someone so talented and professional. Not to mention, Something Wonderful’s accessories are so gorgeous, I also purchased a beautiful handmade garter for the big day. If I were having my wedding again, I’d choose Something Wonderful every time. Thank you SW!
