My wedding dress ended up a tad too big and was very uncomfortable the day of my wedding. It also hung off of me and looks bad in some of the pictures...disappointed.

Alterations by Chris is the best place to go in Murfreesboro if you need wedding dress alterations. Having spent a lot of money on my dress I wanted to make sure I took it to someone who knew what they were doing and Chris completely knows what she's doing. I walked in and she immediately made me feel at home and put me at ease by showing me exactly what she was going to do. She even made suggestions that made my dress all the more beauitful. I had a sash that was missing a few beads and Chris took it upon herself to add the beads back into the sash and didn't even charge me for that. She really is the sweetest lady and made sure I was 100% happy before I left with my dress. Having loved my dress when I bought it, I love it ten times more with the alterations because it truly looks like it was made for me after Chris worked on it. Thank you Chris! My whole wedding party is and will be coming to you!

Highly recommended!! After reading all of the glowing reviews, I decided to take my wedding dress to Chris to get it altered. I'm so glad I did! She is very sweet, and really knows what she'd doing.

Very professional, yet she makes you feel comfortable, and you leave knowing everything has been done right, and to your complete satisfaction.

The pricing was very reasonable...I was worried as some review stated that she was high priced - but it was not bad at all, especially for the high quality work that she does.

Everything was done quickly, I never had to make an appointment- just walked in at my convenience, and my dress looks gorgeous!



I would definitely recommend Alterations by Chris to anyone who needs anything altered!

I was afraid that she only did wedding and prom dresses so i was plesently surprised when i learned she would sew patches on my new pigskin leather biker vest! I needed the work done in a hurry for a meeting i have saturday, she looked at it, gave me a very fair price and said it would be ready to pick up the next morning. I just got my vest back it it looks great thanks to the time that Chris put into it! So i say if your wanting that white wedding dress just right or you need your weekend warrior biker patches put on some new leather Alterations by Chris is the only way to go. I would invite her out for some weekend wind therapy with me anytime!

Chris is awesome! I had a few minor alterations needed for my wedding dress and she did an excellent job. She is so sweet-- she never meets a stranger.



As a pp mentioned, she is not cheap but this is because you pay for quality when you go with her. If you want it done right the first time, see Chris. I drove 45 minutes based on other reviews and I am extremely pleased with the end results! Thank you, Chris! Hope to see you again soon!!

Great Serivce!!! I had never gotten alterations done, with that said, I had lost 4 inches from my waist and didn't want to buy all new clothes. I read the reviews on line about Alterations by Chris and decided to see her. I took 6 pairs of pants to her to have the waist taken in. She was very friendly and gave me sound advice on what to change. I got 5 pairs altered and we decided that the 6th pair needed to be hemmed. I was very pleased with the results and have decided that it is much more cost effective to have alterations done instead of buying new. I would recommend her and her service to all.

I took my wedding dress to Chris to have alterations done. Originally I wasn't going to have alterations done 1) because of the additional cost and 2) who do you trust with your wedding gown!?!?! I have never used an alterations shop before and was so scared about taking my Martina Liana dress to someone who might butcher it. My dress had very expensive, heavy lace with hand-stitched beading. Needless to say it was a pretty pricey dress and I had no idea how someone would be able to alter it, affordably, with all of the beadwork. I finally decided to have my dress altered and I am so glad I did. It needed three inches off!!! Chris was so nice and helpful and the price was way, way less than I was expecting. I honestly wish I could have paid her more because the work was amazing. She had to remove each little bead and sequin in order to take the dress in and then had to re-hand stitch them all back on. I looked very closely and I could not tell what she had done and what was already on the dress. It was amazing. Also the fit was perfect. Before the top was very loose and after it fit against me perfectly. I had also taken my dress to her two weeks before the wedding and she had it finished in plenty of time and we even had a fitting in there as well. I am very pleased with her work and if I ever need anything else altered I will go out of my way to go to her. Prices were beyond reasonable and she was so pleasant to work with!

My daughter borrowed a prom dress, she was sitting down and didn't realize her high heel was on the dress and stood up and ripped a triangle around the hem. I took the dress to several places and they wouldn't touch it, they said it would be to hard to fix. Chris took one look at it and said she would have it back to new and that is exactly what she did. My daughter and her friend couldn't even tell where it had been ripped. She will have all my alteration buisness from now on.

Chris is a fantastic tailor! Her prices are very reasonable, and she does a great job. I brought her a pair of pants in the morning, and she had them pressed and ready to go that afternoon. I will definitely be going back to her for all of my alterations!
