Dave is INCREDIBLE! I highly recommend him for any bridal alterations! The seamstress I had planned on altering my wedding gown quit a month and a half before my wedding, and I was recommended Dave by a friend.… He took on my dress in that short amount of time with his very busy schedule and did a wonderful job! I couldn't have been happier with how it turned out! ❤️

Dave is the best there is. I had a lace wedding gown that he took in on the sides and hemmed. Once I tried on my dress after the alterations, it fit like a glove! Alban Ltd is very reasonably priced and they work with you to give you exactly what you need! Very thankful I went here!

I highly recommend Alban!! They are very knowledgeable, timely, and reasonable. I brought my wedding dress here to be altered and needed length shortened, straps shortened, and dress bustled. Dave paid great attention to detail. I am BEYOND impressed with the customer service here. I will continue to go here for future alteration needs and recommend to friends and family!!

I picked up my wedding dress yesterday from being bustled and partially altered. When I opened the bag and took it out I cried happy tears. It is beautiful!! It is what I pictured in my mind of how I wanted it and it looks amazing! I highly recommend and can not wait till next year when they can put the finishing touches on my dress for the big day! Thank you for making my dress even more beautiful.

I ordered 3 clear masks at least 5 weeks ago. They have packer logo. Are they ready?

Dave saved me from a seamstress nightmare. The first person I took my dress to, had lied about working on my dress after having it for a month, no work had been done to it. I called Dave up with little time before the wedding, and he wasn’t only able to get it done in time, but it looked amazing! I have scoliosis and Dave took the time to make sure the dress laid well on my back and hips. If I can figure out how to post a picture of the dress I will. Worth the price, for the quality, and trust me when I say, peace of mind knowing your dress is in good hands.

They have worked on 7 out of the 9 Bridesmaid dresses I've worn. One of the dresses I purchased was from overseas and absolutely did not fit me. Dave and his team were able to save the dress and it looked amazing! Highly recommend :)

David Alban does absolutely amazing work and doesn't break the bank. Of all the alterations I've had done on many bridesmaid dresses, his are always the best!

Dave custom made my beautiful bridal jacket and did some very last minute alterations on my dress. So wonderful to work with and executed my vision of the jacket beyond what I imagined! (I'll post pictures soon)

My mom and I took my wedding dress to David.BEST DECISION! He's a miracle worker!!! My dress has a lot of volume and horsehair (vertical, which isn't something I've seen a lot of). We were so worried it wasn't going to be able to be hemmed because of how difficult we we told hemming it could be. It needed to be taken up at the waist (and not from… the bottom). David made my dress look even better than I imagined and I'm so grateful he put the time and effort into it. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'd recommend David to anyone who has garments they'd like to have handled with care.

I couldn’t have been more pleased with my experience at Alban. Every time I went in for a fitting I left in happy tears. He made me feel at ease and hopeful that my wedding dress would be perfect. He is respectful and upfront. Customer service like that is hard to find these days.

I recently had two bridesmaid dresses shortened at Alban Alterations and I was very pleased. The staff is super pleasant and the turn-around time was pretty quick. They did a fabulous job on both dresses and I walked away as a happy customer! :)

I brought in a stack of stuff a few months back, including a dress that was destined to become my wedding dress. It was a simple jersey knit, but had a bunch of beaded panels that I wanted removed. The lady helpfully pointed out that without the beading and mesh, the cowl neck of the dress would likely not stay up. She offered to make a back strap out of the mesh to connect the back shoulders, and it came out perfect! I got the simple neckline I was after, without worrying about flashing my whole top half. It wasn't anything I would have thought of on my own, but I so appreciate the advice

I heard about this place from a friend who had a good experience and I needed a brides made dress altered. They were quick and did and excellent job! I would definitely go there again if I needed any alterations.
