An Absolute Joy! Jacki is so lovely and takes great care creating a friendly safe space. Not many seamstress' have been able to accomodate my dress needs as a drag queen but Joy Alternations never disappoints!! Will always be my first choice! 😍💖

I recently had the pleasure of using Jaclyn from Joy Alterations for several clothing alterations and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Her quality of workmanship was exceptional,  every detail was meticulously attended to, and the garments fit me perfectly. Whether it was hemming pants, adjusting the fit of a blazer, or taking in a dress, the results were flawless. It’s clear that she here takes immense pride in her craft and goes above and beyond to ensure every piece is tailored to perfection.

Fantastic service, adjustments to the suit were perfect and was an absolute joy (pun intended) to get it all re fitted.

I’ve been using Joy alterations for years, from my wedding dress to making sure my party dresses fit just right. She does the job and even made a cute little scrunchie out of excess fabric to match my outfits

James Furlong

Thank you so much Jaci for all of your help with our wedding! Your expert knowledge and dedication made the whole process a breeze.

Jaci was always available to answer any questions and for general moral support, she even saved me from a complete melt down in spotlight with her advice for arch drapery. Jaci knew exactly what to do to ensure everyone in the party had the perfect attire. From the bottom of our hearts thank you!
