Magic stitches was recommended by my bridal boutique, Emma Louise.And I totally understand why it is so highly recommended…When I took my dress for alterations, I was greeted by Adam, he made me and my mum feel very welcome.He made me feel at ease straight away.I tried my dress on and he asked me for my own opinions on what I felt needed to be done to make the dress more ‘perfect’ for my big day.I left the shop feeling reassured knowing it was in good hands.When I went to try my dress on after the alterations and to collect… well… WOW Adam had done an amazing job. I fell in love with my dress all over again   I highly recommend all brides to go to Magic Stitches, they really do look after their brides there and they have brides best interest at heart!Thank you again to Adam and the team for working magic on my wedding dress.

Magic stitches was recommended to me by my bridal boutique, Bliss Bridal, and I can see why they are so highly recommended.Adam and his staff made me, my mum and bridesmaids feel very welcome.He made me feel at ease straight away and I was confident our dresses were in safe hands.I’m very particular (fussy!) so it took a few visits and quite a lot of alterations for me to feel like my dress was right, however nothing was ever too much trouble for Adam. Even when we had a very last minute alteration that was quite big, he promised to get it done for the day before we were due to fly. He has the patience of a saint! My dress was perfect.I highly recommend Magic Stitches to all brides!Thank you again to Adam and the team :)

My wedding dress arrived four weeks before my wedding and was not like the one I ordered from the showroom, it was clear the measurements had been taken incorrectly! My mum found magic stitches on Google and wow, they really are magic! After a few trips there it was better than the one I remembered in the showroom. Thank you so much to Adam and Helen for making my dress so special, I can’t wait to wear it on my wedding day!!!

Simply perfect! I was apprehensive about making changes to my wedding dress, as I loved it so much, but Adam and Emily put me at ease in my fittings and thanks to their expertise, the dress is now more beautiful than I could have imagined. Friendly, highly skilled and a wonderful experience. Thank you so much! <3

I needed a bustle adding to my wedding dress. The designers at magic stitches have their own curated techniques and did an absolutely fantastic job, even hiding parts of it so you can't tell when I have my train down during the ceremony. Quick turn around and Everybody made me feel so welcome and like a princess! Would definitely recommend. Will be returning with my bridesmaids dresses.
