Planning your wedding comes with a million moving parts—but when it comes to what you wear and how you show up, the details matter. At Sew Fabulous, we offer custom alterations and embroidery for weddings that go far beyond just the dress.

From the bride’s perfect fit to thoughtful embroidery for your closest people, our work is personal, intentional, and made to last.

We understand that your wedding day is one of the most photographed, talked about, and emotionally meaningful days of your life, which is why every piece we touch is handled with care. From a hem that sits just right to a monogrammed keepsake that brings tears to your dad’s eyes, these are the quiet details that help make your memories feel a little more special.

No matter what role you’re playing—bride, groom, parent, bridesmaid, or best friend—feeling good in what you’re wearing makes a difference. That’s what we’re here for. To make sure everything fits, feels right, and reflects you.

It’s Not Just About the Dress (Even Though That Matters, Too)

We’ve helped countless brides feel confident and comfortable in their gowns, and the key is always in the fit. We specialize in wedding gown alterations that perfect the fit without compromising the design, and we’re proud to offer even more for those who need it. That includes working with lace, beading, or structural changes—yes, even full redesigns—when the dress calls for it.

Think of it as tailoring the dress to you. Every adjustment is made with care so you can walk down the aisle feeling like the best version of yourself.

It’s not about changing the dress—it’s about honoring it. Your gown might already be beautiful, but if it’s slipping at the straps or pulling at the waist, it can steal focus from the moment. We’re here to make sure everything sits just right so you feel secure, supported, and completely yourself.

Need a little extra support as the big day approaches? We now offer on-site, day-of bridal support services, including professional dress steaming to make sure your look is picture-perfect from the very beginning.

Pro tip: Schedule your first fitting at least 2–3 months before the wedding to allow time for adjustments and follow-ups. Early fittings mean less stress and more time to enjoy the countdown.

Bridal Party Tailoring & Fittings

Your wedding day isn’t just about you—it’s about your people. The ones standing by your side deserve to feel just as confident and comfortable. That’s why we offer expert alterations for bridesmaids, mothers of the bride or groom, fathers of the bride or groom, and groomsmen—because when the whole crew feels great, it shows in every photo and every moment.

We tailor each look to the individual, not just the size tag.

• Bridesmaid dresses are tailored to flatter every figure and ensure everyone feels amazing 
• Dress alterations for moms who deserve to shine with confidence—whether they prefer modern, classic, or somewhere in between 
• Suit tailoring for grooms and groomsmen to make sure every button, seam, and hem fits just right, avoiding the common too-loose or too-tight look 
• Don’t forget dad—our team can help ensure fathers of the bride or groom look polished and photo-ready, too

Planning a group fitting? We’ve got you. Coordinating multiple people can feel like herding goats, but we’ll help streamline the process, clarify the timeline, and make sure everyone gets what they need, without the last-minute stress.

Because when everyone feels comfortable and cared for, the celebration flows that much smoother.

Personalized Embroidery for Your Wedding Day

Embroidery adds a personal touch that turns even the simplest item into something meaningful. It’s the kind of detail that can bring a smile, a tear, or a moment of connection on a day that’s already full of emotion.

We offer custom embroidery for wedding parties, helping you create keepsakes and finishing touches that feel one-of-a-kind:

• Monogrammed robes for the bridal suite that make for beautiful photos—and cozy memories 
• Embroidered handkerchiefs for mom, dad, or grandparents—small but heartfelt gestures they’ll hold onto 
• Pocket squares, cufflinks, or ties for the groom and groomsmen with initials, dates, or inside jokes 
• Ring bearer pillows made from meaningful heirloom fabrics—like grandma’s lace or a piece of your mom’s dress 
• Keepsake items created from dad’s favorite shirt, your childhood blanket, or other sentimental materials 
• Veil embroidery or embellishments that tie in a custom detail without altering the dress itself

If you’re looking ahead, don’t forget to ask about wedding gown storage options—we offer proper preservation methods to help protect your dress for years to come.

Every stitch is done locally in Summerville with care, creativity, and intention, giving you something that’s not just pretty, but truly personal.

These small touches add warmth, meaning, and memory to your day, and often become keepsakes that last long after the vows are said.

Gift Ideas & Keepsakes They’ll Actually Keep

When it comes to wedding gifts, thoughtfulness goes a long way. You want something your people will actually use—and actually love. That’s where we come in.

We help create personalized gifts that feel meaningful, not mass-produced:

• Custom tote bags or cosmetic pouches for your bridesmaids—stylish, practical, and perfect for the wedding day and beyond 
• Leatherette flasks, coasters, or keychains for your groomsmen—sharp, useful, and easy to personalize with names or dates 
• Memorial embroidery to honor loved ones who can’t be there in person—whether it’s a discreet patch inside your dress or a stitched message on a keepsake

These small touches don’t just say thank you—they say I see you. They’re keepsakes with heart, designed to last long after the last dance.

Because gifts shouldn’t end up in a drawer. They should be a reminder of the role your people played in your story.

Why These Little Details Matter

In a sea of online checklists, Pinterest boards, and DIY overwhelm, it helps to have a local team that gets it—and takes care of the details, big and small.

At Sew Fabulous, we’re proud to serve the Summerville and Charleston area with wedding alterations and custom embroidery that go beyond the expected. Every project is handled with intention, care, and craftsmanship—because we know it’s never just about fabric. It’s about feeling seen, supported, and celebrated.

Your wedding day should feel like you. And the little touches? They’re the ones your people will remember long after the last toast.
