Alter Girls are based in Glasgow and specialise in alterations of wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, and evening wear. We have 30 years' experience of alterations and have worked for some of the major Bridal Wear companies in Glasgow. All appointments are private and are on a one to one basis with Carol who will be your contact throughout the process - you will not see anyone else.

Alter Girls very kindly altered my wedding dress at the last minute after another seamstress who had been recommended by the bridal shop made a mess of it. Carol was so lovely and did an absolutely amazing job, I can’t believe how she managed to save it and can’t thank her enough! Only needed altering once by her and it was perfect. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I cannot recommend enough! Top notch wedding dress alteration job along with making all the right suggestions for what was right for me try this and see what you think" type thing rather than pushing things on me! And to top it all off- practical advice for how to walk and do other things- made me feel far more confident in my massive dress than I did before I went to get it altered. You might struggle to get an appointment because it's so good but if you do you won't regret it!

The ladies at alter girls managed to squeeze me in for a wedding dress alteration emergency after another alterations shop done a terrible job of my wedding dress. They straightened the hem of my dress and cut it evenly the full way around, even the bit that was 2 and a half inches too long at one side. Not only that, but they pressed my dress for me which removed another stress. I would definitely recommend alterations at alter girls but don't be like me and book in with plenty of time as I was in such a panic.

I used altergirls to have my wedding dress altered. The service was second to none. I felt listened to and was provided with the best possible advice. My dress looked amazing on the day and fitted perfect. Thanks for everything

Carol fitted my wedding dress perfectly. I couldn't have been happier with the end result, I felt so comfortable thanks to her! She was so professional and friendly from start to finish and made sure I was happy. I've been to so many weddings where the bride keeps re-adjusting her dress or straps but thanks to Carol mine fitted like a glove. It looks amazing in the photos too. Thank you so much Carol.
