Please read before you come here.. Sure, there are lots of great reviews, however, you will regret having your dress altered here. She may be quick, but spotty. She states she has been doing this for 34 years, but I couldnt tell. She messed up the back of my wifes bridesmaid dress, and came up with every excuse in the book to not be able to fix it; she resorted to saying my 130 lb wife must have gained weight in a 1.5 week period from when she altered the dress. Serious face palm moment... Dalia, Dalia, Dalia... avoid at all times. Read lower reviews to see this is a pattern, not a one time issue! I would recommend looking elsewhere.
Dahlia is AMAZING. Anything you want is possible she will adapt your vision of your dream wedding dress to your body.When I first met Dahlia I didn’t have a dress yet but expressed what I wanted in my dress and showed her pictures of possible dresses. There wasn’t anything on the market that was extremely low back. I showed her a picture of the dress I had in mind and asked her if she could work her magic to make it super low back; without hesitation she said YES I can do it for you.Dahlia is very open and easy to communicate with. If there was something I didn’t like and wanted to address it was easy to do with her and she never got snippy with me.She finished my dress so fast and even cleaned it for me! My dress had the wedding glow after Dahlia worked on it!Check out the before and after pictures!
Dalia was absolutely amazing! She helped me on a whim. I walked in, she asked me questions about myself and the event coming up and picked a few dresses for me to try. I chose one of the 3 and she did the alterations in FOUR days! She also allowed me to keep close communication during the week on undergarments that were needed. She made me feel so welcomed and cared for. Truly amazing person! And the dress fits like a glove!
First of all, I did not buy my Dress from ABQ Bridal Boutique but after Covid shutdowns my Bridal boutique recommended Dahlia as they were no longer doing alterations. On our first appointment Dahlia was great! listened well to what we needed and had my dress ready in about a week. Our second appointment was not a similar experience. She had cut the ties on my corset dress way too short (we had never even discussed doing this) and my sleeves had been attached backwards. We left the dress with her for about 20 minutes for her to make the necessary adjustments. Picked up my dress and everything seemed fine. Flash forward to my wedding day and my left sleeve broke off from my dress just after exiting my ceremony. I hadnt even been wearing it for an hour at this point. We had to use Safety pins to reattach it and get it to stay. Two dances in and my bustle broke, I had to carry my train for the rest of the night. While the turn around for the dress was very quick, I feel the quality and attention to detail was very poor. I am rather disappointed in my experience and do not recommend this Boutique for alterations
Dalia did and amazing job hemming my ruffled dress, which is difficult with all the layers. The sleeves came out amazing and the bustle is gorgeous. Can’t wait to wear it on my wedding day!! Thank you for making it the dress of my dreams! 😁❤️
I have never posted a review before but Dalia deserves nothing less than 5 stars. She is a wonderful women that knows exactly what she is doing. I ordered my beautiful bridesmaids dresses here at a very affordable price. She took care of literally everything including the alterations for not only the bridesmaids dresses but also my wedding dress. i had gone through health issues before my wedding causing me to be 3 sizes too small for my dress, but she made it happen! Both my girls and i received our dresses in a reasonable amount of time. I was beyond bless to have Dalia take care of my girls and me. If you happen to stop by this boutique, please give Dalia a chance, i promise you will NOT be disappointed.
Dalia is an absolute MIRACLE WORKER! Seriously, go to her for your alteration needs. She saved me from having to buy an entire new wedding dress (after I had just bought one). I was measured incorrectly at my bust from the place I originally bought the dress from in CO and Dalia was able to take it out with NO ISSUES! She is so nice and caring. Absolutely reasonably priced too.
Dalia is the absolute BEST! I just picked up my dress from her and it was perfectly altered. Not only is she an AMAZING seamstress, she has a beautiful bridal shop and the dresses are very affordable!! She is so kind, I dont have any family in town and she was so amazing with me, treating me like a daughter. Of all the bridal stores in ABQ I went to, hers makes you feel at home. I literally cannot recommend her enough!
The staff is very friendly and the prices are very reasonable. I had my train shortened, the buttons on the back of my dress reattached (as the material originally used to attach the buttons was very poor in quality) and the straps readjusted. The alterations were completed on time and a few days before my Debutante ball. Overall I had a great experience and definitely recommend ABQ Bridal Boutique and Alterations.
I got married on September 23, 2017 in Albuquerque. I currently live in Columbus, OH and I had taken my wedding dress to a local seamstress in OH for alterations. I had a really bad experience and the job the other seamstress did was so sloppy, that I thought my dress was completely ruined. It did not fit right at all and was cut too short for the shoes I was going to wear. Also, the hem was completely uneven and the bustle was not added correctly. I called my mom crying because my Wedding was two weeks away and I had no idea what I was going to do about getting my dress fixed. My family and bridesmaids went to ABQ Bridal Boutique and had their alterations done with Dalia. As soon as I called my mom, she went over to ABQ Bridal Boutique and showed Dalia the pictures and told her what had happened. She was very compassionate and told me that once I got into town ( 5 days before the Wedding) she could have me come in and see what we could do to fix it. I went in first thing Monday morning, and as soon as we walked in she was ready to help. She assessed the damage and gave me many options. We decided on evening out the current length and I ended up finding a nice pair of flats, She took in the waist and fixed the bustle. It is amazing the work she did. I received nothing but compliments on our Wedding day and the dress looked so beautiful and was exactly what I wanted. I hardly ever write reviews, but after my bad experience with the seamstress in OH, I feel that it is really important to share my story and let you know my experience. Dalia is a master at her craft and she really listens to what you want. She asks a lot of questions and really puts her heart and soul into what she does. She was so busy the days I came in for my fittings, and she went out of her way to help me even on short notice. Even with the short time frame, she did a remarkable job. She has fair prices and she sets realistic expectations. She has my recommendation to everyone I know going forward! Thank you for saving my dress Dalia!
This company is a literal joke. My sister brought her dress in to get altered and Dalia BRAGGED that she has a 24 hour turn around time, and how she doesn’t dresses all the time. We left the dress there to get altered and it was supposed to be done after a week. After two weeks they claimed their sewing machine broke and it would take another couple of days. Well those day have passed and it was supposed to be done today. This morning she called and said she couldn’t figure out how to put the dress back together and she needed until this evening to do to. Now they are closed and they keep ignoring my call and sending us to voicemail, won’t return any messages or texts, and my sister is getting married in 6 days. What an utter disaster, and how unbelievably unprofessional, and disgusting during a time like this.
I had a wonderful experience here! Dahila, the owner, was incredibly helpful with my wedding dress alterations. From scheduling my appointment, getting in & sized, to the turnaround of the dress itself. Super quick, easy, and highly affordable process! Side note: If you call and she just so happens to ask to call you back (because shes with a client) - dont be disappointed! Trust/know shell call you back timely and give you QUALITY experience. Definitely would recommend her.
Dahlia was absolutely AMAZING! She complied with the COVID regulations, was very sweet and willing to do whatever I needed. I was not so happy with my dress the day I brought it to her. When she finished, I walked out with my dream dress, I couldn’t ask for better. She has great prices and does beautiful work. I HIGHLY recommend! ❤️
Love this place! I got married last May and Dalia became like a friend after all of our visits. My dress and bridesmaids dresses turned out beautifully! We had our dresses altered the same way with the dresses being shorter in the front and longer in the back. I promised Dalia I would send people her way and just thought about her again because a co-workers daughter is getting married and I highly recommended her and wanted to leave a review because she did such a great job and gave us such great service. I ended up cancelling my appt with Davids bridal because after I saw her prices I knew I did not need to go anywhere else. Thank you, Dalia for your great service and I will stop by and see you again.
We walked in and she took us even thought she was by appointment only! She made time for us and is super friendly! She altered my dress and I cannot be more happy with the outcome! She ENHANCED the beauty of my dress!10/10 Recommend :)
Dalia made the dress part of my wedding planning one of my favorite memories.On the day of finding my dress, she was helpful and gave guidance while letting me go at my own pace and choose what I liked to my hearts content. I ended up choosing the third dress I tried on. It was so ME! I was pleasantly surprised with the variety of options, affordability, and ease of the dress finding, all with no appointment. And, ordering the dress I fell in love with one size smaller than the sample I had tried on was so easy too! I felt welcomed and at ease throughout.It was so convenient that alterations were done right in the shop, and gosh she is an alteration magician! She was able to add a layer to part of the dress around my shoulders that kept my super sensitive skin from turning pink, and make it invisible. She helped pose my mom and I for memorable photos of the moment, taught my mom exactly how to do the bustles to pin up the back of my dress, and helped us decide on the perfect veil and belt for my dress.We never felt rushed, never felt pressured for decisions, and always felt heard and respected. The shop was clean and organized and Dalia was great with communicating the next steps, dates things would be done by, and things to make sure to bring when we came back in. I would recommend this boutique to all brides who want to feel a personal connection with where their wedding dress is coming from, you can see the passion in Dalias alteration work and feel her genuine friendliness the moment you step in.
I am a plus sized bride who needed a ton of work done on my dress and needed it dry cleaned. Dahlia Made me a whole new back to my corset, cleaned out my dress really well and made it vibrant (really i have never seen my dress so bright even when i bought it), Fixed the top part to fit my bust well and added 3 bustles to the back so i can put my train up during the reception. She made me feel really comfortable and gave me a decent price for the work she had done. I am really happy with my dress! It also only took her a week to do.Thank you Dahlia :)
Dahlia was fantastic to work with and did an amazing job! I essentially had a shotgun wedding, so I only had about a month left from the time I received my wedding dress & had to get alterations completed. Dahlia finished my alterations in just over a week which not only exceeded my expectations, but also lessened my stress! She did a phenomenal job!
I looked into many bridal boutiques in Albuquerque and something drew me here! I brought in a 48 year old wedding dress (turned yellow in storage) I addressed my wanting for an updated look. I wanted the original color of off white, short sleeves (from long) and a one of a kind detachable train specially made. I was not disappointed! Tears and happiness were shared on my special day of my final wedding gown fitting! Thank you ABQ Bridal Boutique for making me feel absolutely beautiful for my special day!
This shop is absolutely amazing! Dahlia was a life saver for my wedding. I only had 72 hrs to find another dress that would fit and get it altered in time. She made me feel at ease and performed multiple adjustments overnight! The dress fit like a glove and looked amazing. The price was very reasonable, she has earned a customer for life!
I loved my wedding dress from ABQ Bridal Boutique!! Dahlia who owns/runs the shop is very personable and takes time to find the best dress for your body! She also does all the alterations herself, for my dress for example she created a beautiful mermaid flow on the bottom and it looked Amazing! All my bridesmaids loved their long romantic burgundy dresses we ordered for them thru the boutiques dress catalog! It was truly the experience i needed, stress free and Dahlia handles everything herself! Thank you Dahlia for selling me my perfect beautiful dress!
For anyone that needs alterations for a good price, this is the place to go. I called other shops for a simple alteration and cleaning and was getting quotes for over $250... Dahlia altered mine and my daughters dress as well as cleaned my dress to look new and it was only $135. She’s not only reasonable but so polite and professional. My only regret is that I didn’t buy my dress from her, I would rather give my money to a shop that appreciates my business like she did.
Dahlia is a wonderful person and only wants whats best for you. She works within your budget and listens. She offers affordable and practical options that still keep you looking like a queen. She alters and cleans wedding dresses for a competitive price.
I dont usually have alterations done at a bridal shop. I bought a dress that didnt fit my body type. It was an amazing dress! I couldnt pass up the deal. I planned to alter it myself but could see I was out of my league. This dress is going to be worn only once so I had no reason to want to spend a lot on alterations. Dalia took a different approach than what I was planning. She proposed what she thought we should do and Im so so happy with the results.While I was there I saw another customer having her grandmothers wedding dress completely reworked into a contemporary fabulous wedding gown. I heard the price quoted and I know thats well below market price.Later I found out that several people going to the same event (Diner En Blanc) were getting alterations from Dalia too.I dont think I have ever gotten so many compliments on how I look in a dress before. Even my mother in law called me just to compliment me on how I looked in that dress.I think I might be hooked. Since then I have taken more things from my closet to Dalia. Today she pinned a pair of pants for me. To make it more up to current style she made suggestions for more alterations than I had planned, and I still had it done for the same price I was paying my previous tailor for a simple hem on my husbands work pants.I might never alter my own clothes again after seeing what Dalia can do.
So glad I met this seamstress/magician. The store where I bought my wedding dress wanted 8 weeks to alter my dress and was $$$$$. They also wouldnt alter my reception gown since I didnt buy it from them. ABQ Bridal had both done perfectly in less than a week. So relieved!!
My dress was too short. Dalia did an amazing job adding lace trim. It looked like I bought it that way. She hand stitched it around the dress. It was perfect!!
Wonderful time! Dalia gives you the time to try as many dresses as needed. Her years of experience allow her to show you different variations of your dress to make each dress a one of a kind. She had great advice and helped my daughter find the dress of her dreams
Amazing service, prices, and experience. Was so incredibly pleased. My dress fit perfectly after some slight alterations, that she did in-house, and I felt comfortable and beautiful. Will definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for a wedding dress or even just a “night out” dress. She also does alterations for suits and other party goer attire.
I am so greatful to have come across ABQ Bridal! I had purchased my wedding dress shortly before moving to Albuquerque so I had to get my alterations done here and could not be any happier. I brought my dress by the shop a couple months before my wedding so I could get a price estimate and then didnt need to have my dress altered until about 4-6 weeks before my wedding which was great because I ended up losing weight. This saved me from having to get it altered twice. The prices are very reasonable and Dalia does such a fantastic job and her experience really shows. She did a great job with the lace detail on my dress which had to be taken in and it fit perfectly. I had also wanted multiple bustles instead of just one in the back and it came out just how I wanted. I highly recommend ABQ Bridal for any alterations you may need.
The owner absolutely knows her bridal stuff! Gave me the best ideas and recommendations and helped me chose the most beautiful dress ever! And she is just a charm to chat with! All the bigger bridal chains have all these young girls working for them with no experience or any good ideas. These bigger chains could never get anything in quickly but ABQ Bridal sure could!!!
Had a great experience when I went to get my wedding dress altered a couple weeks ago. I made the best decision coming here, as soon as you walk in Dalia is very welcoming. She is friendly and very knowledgeable about what to do/not to with my wedding dress from the beginning. Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend coming here
I needed my zipper replaced and I had no where else to take it. It was two days before my best friends wedding and I was really stressing out about my zipper because I was the maid of honor. To top it off my dress was way too long. After calling several places and having no luck at all, I called ABQ Bridal Boutique and Alterations and Dalia managed to squeeze me in her schedule. I took the dress in on a Friday and the wedding was on the next day on Saturday at 12 pm. She even went out of her way to find me a zipper that matched the color of my dress. I picked up my dress Saturday morning and it fit perfect, she steamed it and hemmed it too! She is also very affordable. I recommend Ms. Dalia to all the brides and bridesmaids for your last minute alteration needs, she is truly great to work with. Dalia really saved the day for me!
ABQ Bridal is amazing! On my wedding dress hunt, I started off at David’s Bridal (BIG Mistake), since they were so rude! I googled bridal stores, and found ABQ Bridal. The start with, you don’t need an appointment! The dresses are beautiful and fairly priced! Daila pretty much created my dress from scratch! For example, she created sleeves for my dress and added the diamonds onto the dress! She altered the dress, so it could fit me perfectly, because it was very long and a little big on my shoulders! Overall, everything turned out amazing for the big day!
Great dress selection, super friendly atmosphere, and budget friendly!
Amazing shop! If you are looking for beautiful, unique wedding dresses that wont break the bank, going here is a no brainer! Cute store, hand-curated selection, and no pressure sales. Dalia is so, so knowledgeable about everything in her shop and knows how to alter any dress to make you look and feel your best.
I had a great first time experience! Never going to another place after finding this one!! The owner was friendly, professional, and definitely knows her work. Has awesome prices and best seamstress!! She takes her time to make sure her customers are happy with their choices of dresses. Highly recommended!!
Dahlia is amazing!! She altered my wedding dress and did not stop making changes until it fit perfectly. Her prices are reasonable and she does good quality work. I recommend everyone to her; she altered two of my bridesmaids dresses and several of my mothers dresses. I couldnt have been happier with her. I also take my regular clothing to her to be altered as well. Highly recommended.
Love this little shop!Daliah was very helpful and she knows what shes doing. This shop offers a lot of options for weddings and formal occasions. Very affordable and quick return. She makes sure to give you what you want and give you great recommendations.
Non-existent customer service. When the listed number from their website did not work, I messaged the store rep on facebook and they said we could come in anytime between 10-3 for a walk in because my fiance needed to start getting fitted to see what dress style she would want. We got there at 11am today, just seconds after a woman who had an appointment to get alterations done. While we browsed, this appointment was completed and both the store rep and the guest proceeded to chit chat for 40 minutes while we waited for the transaction to conclude.Now that it was noon and the conversation was still going, we decided that this business didnt care to work with other customers so we walked out, still without any acknowledgement from the stores representative. Very unprofessional with a complete lack of social awareness.
I dont usually leave reviews but I figured I would leave a review for those brides who dont know where to go. I bought my dress in Houston and I was fairly new to the ABQ area. I considered going to Davids Bridal but they were going to charge me so much. Dalias prices are very reasonable and she makes sure you love the way the dress looks on you. I had a very long train and she went above and beyond to make sure the dress still looked beautiful with a French Bustle. I am so glad I came here she did such a great job and made me feel very comfortable! Thank you Dalia for your great service! If i could give you 10 starts I definitely would.
Dalia is one of the sweetest most caring individuals I have ever met. Although sometimes a little blunt but I prefer someone that shoots me straight and doesnt sugar things like Dalia. I have here Tailor and alter all my custom suits. They have all turned out perfect, The best fitting suits I have ever owned! I would not go anywhere else to have Tailoring or alterations done! Simply stated this women is gifted! If she can do what she did with my suits, I cant even imagine how well she can put together a dress!
She did an amazing job on our bridal dresses! She did it last minute for us and her prices were very affordable! Thank you! Very friendly and very nice!.
Dahlia is great to work with. She makes you feel like family and really works with you to get you the best price and the best dress or alterations to fit your needs. Taking my wedding gown there and also take my regular clothes for alterations. She is super sweet and extremely knowledgeable. Plus, she also has lots of wedding items in her shop in case you forget anything! A great local business on the Westside of town.
The owner is very wonderful. I didnt get my dress here but now I wish I had. She altered my dress and even cleaned it for me when it got dirty in my bag. I highly suggest her! Shes wonderful help and has amazing prices!
We took in our daughters first communion dress for alterations but forgot to pick it up on time! In desperation we contacted the owner and she went out of her way to go back to the store in order that we got the dress. I cannot tell you how happy my daughter was! The alteration was perfect (of course), but the fact that the owner went out of her way to help us out meant the world to us! Please send any and all business her way!
I had a wonderful experience at ABQ Bridal Boutique with Daliah. She was so afordable, and quick. I went in a couple times for my wedding dress alterations. The first time was for length and she did an outstanding job and then the second time was for putting in a corset. I am so happy with the result! If you want to have the best alteration experience go there. Great overall experience!
Every sweet owner. Prices are very reasonable. Ive had several alterations for events, workout clothes, pants etc. Very pleased with the work. Definitely recommend.
After reading the reviews from ABQ BOUTIQUE my desions was made. From the moment my best friend and I walked through the front door we were greeted by the owner. She looked up at us with a Big smile. The store was full of beautiful dresses. I had my mind set on a particular style of dress in honor of my mother, who has gone to be with the Lord, but not forgotten. I looked through the racks I found THE DRESS !!! The only one like it...I Bought my dress today !!!!
What a great shop! There is such a selection of colors and styles. I was finally able to find a nice dress for a wedding at a good price. The owner provided great suggestions and advice, and did a nice job on the alteration. I am recommending this boutique to my friends for all of their weddings, proms and christianings. And I will be taking all of my alterations here as well. You will not find better customer services or prices anywhere.
This place is amazing! We got everything we needed and great customer service! They went above and beyond for us! Highly recommended! Can not thank them enough for making my future wifes dreams come true!
Not only did she do a fantastic job taking in my suit, she also showed me what to look for when buying suits in the future and what looks modern vs dated. She got my suit done on time and for a reasonable amount. I will most likely return here for future alterations.
Dalia is very professional and does excellent work. She altered my wedding dress, my sisters dress, and my mothers dress. All came out beautiful. I recommend her to all my friends and family.
Owner provided alterations to my suit for my wedding. She fixed my jacket and pants to fit perfectly, and pressed my entire wedding outfit. She does not only do work for the brides, but the grooms.
I was desperately looking for someone to do the alterations to my dress that didnt cost an arm and a leg. I had been to several bridal alteration shops in Albuquerque and was blown away by what they wanted to charge to do the alterations. At one point I thought I might just leave the dress the way it was and forget about doing anything to it. The cost can be astronomical!!!!!Fortunately I found ABQ Bridal Boutique and Alterations and immediately felt like I was at the right place. She not only worked with me with the price for the alterations she was very friendly, and honest .and so helpful with many other aspects of my wedding. I am truly thankful that I stopped by the shop.I cant thank you enough ABQ Bridal Boutique and Alterations! My dress will look beautiful the way it was meant to be!
Definitely pay Dahlia a visit at this small yet diverse local boutique! She has a modest stock of dresses but catalogues that you can find any style/look which she can order for you. This makes for a pretty extensive inventory and no appointments are currently required for stopping in so...what are you waiting for? I felt that ABQ Bridal was extremely convenient and no hassel for getting my beautiful wedding dress. I ordered a dress that matched our wedding theme and was non-traditional - I needed embroidered flowers and oh how I found a wide selection of colorful dresses with embroidered flowers from the Fiesta Collection. Dahlia does all the dress alterations herself so you can bet that you will have guarantee on the alterations since she is the shop owner. Dahlia also speaks Spanish. I also found that the prices on her selection are moderate. Hooray for ABQ Bridal!
Miss Dalia saved the day and the game! I needed my daughters cheerleading uniform altered in a hurry and Miss Dalia came through. Her expertise and craftsmanship made the uniform perfect. Her kindness has made me a customer for life!
I bought my bridesmaid dresses there and loved the service!! I found the colors I was looking for and everything came in on time at an affordable price. The owner also did all the alterations required for my bridesmaids. I just cant believe how affordable the prices were for the alterations, I highly recommend it!
I am extremely pleased with the service for all my wedding party to include my wedding dress. It was all I ever wanted and more. Thanks for making my dress so beautiful. I highly recommend this shop not only is she a professional but a lovely human being!
Gentlemen never underestimate the power of a tailored suit. Tailoring a suit to ones dimensions is what transforms a suit into a truly unforgettable event. Dahlia is hands down the best I have ever worked with in Albuquerque. She knows her craft inside and out and her customer service is top notch . I trust completely in her abilities.
Went in to buy a flower girl dress. The tag said $20 and when I went to buy it, the lady changed the price to $68! I argued with her how she cant change the price after the fact cause she wasnt happy with it. Finally after some debate I ended up leaving without a dress. Ill never send business this way or recommend it due to their shady business practice
Found my perfect dress here .. Deliah did an amazing Job on the alterations. Since im so short and Big she needed to do a lot to make it work .. She did a amazing job .thank you my special day was amazing.
So excited! She knew EXACTLY what to do and jumped right in with ideas. Dalia is truly an expert and an artist
Dahlia, the owner of this shop is kind and experienced. I took my Pronovias wedding gown in for alterations. It was a really expensive gown and I wanted to make sure, I had someone experienced to do the alterations. She paid attention to every detail of my dress and made sure it was done correctly. I had the bust and hips taken in, the bottom hem shortened and the bustle arranged. The price for all of these alterations was very affordable. Im so excited to wear my dress on my wedding day! I know it will look beautiful, all thanks to Dahlia! I would definitely recommend ABQ Bridal Boutique and Alteration to all my friends!
I feel so fortunate to have found Dalia for my wedding gown alterations. After purchasing my gown at a nearby shop (DB) in Albuquerque I declined their in house alteration services for several reasons but mostly bc i felt rushed and needless to say, their prices were ridiculous. I contacted ABQ bridal shortly after purchasing my gown and spoke to dalia about what I needed done etc. She was very friendly and knowledgeable on everything about wedding dresses, sizing and alterations so I felt very comfortable leaving my gown in her hands. I had the best experience and am so grateful for her honesty and quality work. I will definitely be returning - thank you so much Dalia!
I had look everywhere to find a reasonable wedding dress for my daughter and brides maid dresses. Then i went to ABQ Bridal and i was able to get everything done including alterations. I am so happy with the service that was provided. If i ever need a dress or alteration the only place i will go will be abq bridal.
When i bought my wedding dress from here she gave me many options on how i want my dress done. If i need to buy another dress i would highly recommend here. I was married on October 21st
Dahlia is so friendly, and did an amazing job on both my wedding dress and flower girl’s dress! Definitely will continue to visit her shop.
I did not have a good experience here. I took a pair of jeans to be hemmed. She cut the bottom off and sewed them back on. I gave he the benefit of the doubt and I later went back with another pair and asked her not to do them that way. She told me that is how all tailors do it and that they go to school for a long time and that that is how they are supposed to be done. I got out of there. Maybe she is very good for other stuff but not for jeans. I found another place for my hemming that does great.
I highly recommend ABQ Bridal Boutique. My sister-in-law, niece and I are very pleased with the service we receive at ABQ Bridal Boutique. Dahlias professional eye and fashion sense has helped us make the right choice each time we visit. Her alteration service is a huge bonus--great service and a perfect fit every time. --Pat Bethoney
My family and I were extremely happy with the service we received at ABQ Bridal. My daughter married in August and 6 months before the wedding decided to wear the wedding dress her grandmother wore in 1963. The dress was originally worn with a hoop which we did not want for obvious reasons. Because we were unable to find a petticoat with enough flare, Dalia made one to perfection. We were also very pleased with the alterations on the wedding dress that was worn after the ceremony. Dalia also altered several other dresses for the occasion. One thing I know for sure is that Dalia has many years of experience and her expertise was proven several times over.
Love my dress. Can’t wait to wear on June 1!!!! Great service and prices.
Bought my girls dresses for my wedding and had my wedding dress alterations done here. Dalia was a joy and very helpful. Absolutely coming back in the feature.
Cant say enough good things about my experience.My first pick wedding dress did not work out. I broughtin my alternative one week before my wedding.Dahlia saved the day!!! The alterations came out perfect.Shes very professional and extremely good at what she does.Highly recommend her business!!!
Great boutique with a wide variate of dresses that will save any dad time. Even if the dress looks perfect it may not fit just right and that is what separates ABQ Bridal from the other stores, they have the alterations done in-house and every detail is taken care of. I am glad that i was able to find them and was surprised by the vast selections of dresses and gowns.
Ive been here three times, and twice I needed work done last minute. Dalia never hesitated to help me, even when she was really busy. Very professional work for a great price!
Recommended walk-in place to get the wedding dress and the alteration!I had an amazing experience at ABQ Bridal Boutique and Alteration. I bought my wedding dress and did the alteration here. Daliah, the owner, is very patient, friendly and helpful. She did not rush me to buy the dress and told me to take my time looking around. However, with the amazing and unique dress with reasonable price, I found the dress I was looking for and bought it right then. Daliah gave me a discount for the alteration which was very nice of her. I am very happy with the result. Thank you so much Daliah for your help!
The woman who owns this place - Dahlia is it? Kept my Blazer for nearly 3 weeks. As part of a costume I was creating - I asked her to remove the sleeves and make the jacket look finished. First time I picked it up - it looked like a 10-year old did the work. She then kept the jacket another 2 weeks (promising me she would do it right), and after absolutely destroying the fabric around the wonky seam she created - she told me she did her best and that shed give it to me for free. What kind of a seamstress does things for free, you ask? One who has no skill in her craft, nor pride in her work. I should send her a bill for ruining an expensive blazer, costume or no. Hate to see what shed do to a brides dress. Ladies - steer clear; let this one go out of business.
Dahlia was so helpful and knowledgeable. She went out of here way to help me get my perfect dress!
A wonderful place to get alterations!! Our fami!y has beenGoing there for 5 years and we have been very happy with her work.!
This business doesnt even deserve 1 star. Sign on door stated they would be back at 2pm. Waited at the door till 210. Called the shop, no answer. Came back an hour later. She was there. Ignored me when I came in. Finally asked me what I needed and was rude. Told me to come back the next day because she was with somebody. I asked why she wasnt there at 2pm, she said she was. She wasnt. I called. ...many other alteration shops to choose from. Ill be taking business elsewhere.
This is one of, if not the, worst customer experiences I have ever had. I took four pair of new mens slacks in to be hemmed. My first clue should have been when she only had me try on two pair for measurements, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt that they were all similar in fit and style and that she knew what she was doing. The second clue was the nearly two week turn around, but again, maybe she was busy, so she got the benefit of the doubt.My wife was finally able to pick them up (her shop is closed more frequently than Ive ever experienced, even when you show up during posted business hours), and when I got home and tried them on it was ridiculous. One pair of pants still had the pins in to mark her measurements. She didnt even touch that pair and charged us anyway. For the other three, she simply folded up the pant legs at the original hem and sewed the fold shut. There wasnt a single sign of any effort made, tailoring done or any evidence that she paid any attention to the measurements she made. Yet again, we were charged for all three slacks at full price.When I went back to get a refund, she met me at the door wouldnt let me in the shop. She reached into the bag I had with the slacks in it without asking, while the bag was in my hands, to try and pull the pants out and tell me I was mistaken. I then showed her the pair with the pins still in them and she told me she just missed that pair. I then showed her one of the three pair where she just folded up the hem and didnt do any actual tailoring. At that point she must have realized I knew exactly what was done and that shed been caught, because she immediately offered a full refund and seemed to want me out of there as quick as possible before other customers showed up.Im fairly young, and I got the impression that she felt she could pull the wool over my eyes because of that. Im blown away by the dishonesty, laziness and apparent disregard of any customer service. I will never recommend that anyone patronize this store.
Excellent service and one of the best places to go in Albuquerque. She took care of my daughter and the dress was the focal point of the wedding. I would recommend ABQ Bridal to anyone that is in the market for a unique dress for that special day.
I cant believe I came her for my wedding dress this lady was supposedly a Christian and she was the rudest person I ever met when I called to ask her hows everything going with my dress she was whats your name who are you what dress did you get.? And that didnt only happen once It happened thru out the whole time, also when I went in. I think its messed up that we had to buy the dress and then she charged up the ass for alternations. She was even rude when I asked well what happens if I lose weight and I need more done to it and shes was all its not my responsibility when people gain or lose weight. She wasnt like oh well we can see what we can do, she didnt want business. I will not be going back here ever again and never recommend this place to no one.
My sister got married in the beginning of September. All of are dresses were amazing and my sister looked so beautiful in her wedding gown! Amazing!
My wife absolutely loves her dress! Daliah was so much help and very nice to talk to. If youre looking for someone to go the extra mile to hand sew your dress if they have to, this is the place to go. Daliah went above and beyond to make my wifes dress a perfect fit.
I am extremely pleased with the experience I had at ABQ Bridal! I took my wedding gown in for alterations last summer, and Dahlia did an excellent job of hemming the skirt (about 9 layers of difficult material). She was even there for me when I had a traumatic medical incident in her shop. During one appointment, I began feeling dizzy while she pinned up my bustle. She had me sit down, undid my corset, and fanned my face. The dizziness got worse, however, and I vomited and nearly passed out. She called 911 and stayed by my side while the paramedics came and took care of me. She then called my father and had him come take me home. It turns out nothing was wrong. I was just nervous and excited. Nevertheless, I was SO glad to have Dahlia there! She knew exactly what to do. After the fact, I was able to order a new dress and start the process over again. Dahlia not only expertly altered my new gown but also completed the alterations on my sisters bridesmaid dresses as well. Having been through some very difficult tragedies in her life, Dahlia is a compassionate and caring person who genuinely wants the best for her customers. She is a HIGHLY skilled seamstress and a wonderful person.
I found my mother of the groom dress there. She was able to tell me my size just by looking at me. She has excellent prices and is an excellent seamstress.

Her work was done beautifully and professionally on my unique, beaded, boned dress . I highly recommend her because she is perfect for her job .
So pleased that you were able to accommodate a very last-minute request to steam my daughters bridesmaid dress!!!
This place is a hidden gem! I was looking for my wedding dress, last minute and on a tight budget, and I came across this place. When I walked in and told Daliah my situation she was so helpful. I found 6 wedding dresses I liked and narrowed it down to two. One of them didnt fit all the way and she said she could make the back of it a corset if I wanted it. Not only are the dresses affordable but they are beautiful and elegant as well. I went back numerous times just to keep trying on the 2 dresses I liked and she had no problem with it at all! I finally picked a dress and it was a little tight but she managed to do a beautiful job on the alterations and I was so happy with the finished product! Best customer service and best alterations. I went to other Bridal Boutiques and nome of them treated me as well as Daliah. I will always recommend this place for formal dresses and for alterations. Best in ABQ hands down!
