I chose Belia bridal alterations because I saw a review that she works really well with intricate beading and lace. I bought this dress second hand and as you can see from the woman I bought by this dress from her shoulders are wider and she was 5’6 and I am 5’2. This dress was unaltered when I brought it to Belia. I am extremely impressed with her customer service. She was very kind, patient, and had awesome suggestions. She listened to everything I wanted and exceeded what I wanted in getting my dress altered. She did an AMAZING job with the beading and having the back lay flat on me as it should. She is so knowledgeable about being a seamstress and had plenty experience. The bustle was originally outside the dress and she suggested I do it under and I’m so glad I did. I had a wonderful experience with her and I know you will too!! I recommend her to everyone! Choose her! I cannot wait to wear this gorgeous dress on my wedding day

I had the pleasure to work with Burcu as the seamstress for my wedding gown. My gown was designed by Berta and very delicate so, I was very picky with who I chose to work with. I spent a lot of time researching and was so grateful to find Burcu! I felt an instant connection with her and knew that I could trust I was in good hands. During each visit, she was very honest and personable. She was also very responsive to all my small and big requests. Not only did she make sure to meet all my needs, she offered her professional advice. She offered ideas that I never would have thought of which made my gown even more beautiful! I felt very lucky to work with Burcu as she is so genuine and passionate. I would highly recommend her! :)

I had such a wonderful experience with Bridgette. She has a fabulous attention to detail and very talented. I had a challenging dress to work with that would show a lot and she made it fit perfectly and made me feel confident. She was very responsive and had worked quickly.

Amazing experience and super quick! I honestly didn’t know that my dress could look that much better but she did it! Dress theory recommended for me to come and I’m so glad I did. The whole process from start to finish was a month but be sure to book early, she is super in demand and popular. It is well worth the cost 😊

Absolutely wonderful, I highly recommend! She was super sweet and very responsive. My dress was fitted like a glove to me, and she even added a bustle and hand sewn beading on the straps— it was done in only three weeks! I’ve never heard of anyone that fast for such a reasonable price. Thank you so much for making my dress perfect 💙

Burcu is amazing, I can’t say enough about her work or her as a person. She is super sweet, very knowledgeable and is an amazing seamstress. Her pricing is extremely fair and she can see exactly what needs to be done to your dress for it too look perfect on you. She will never do unnecessary alterations just to add cost or that will sacrifice the look of your gown and she will do as little as possible to make your dress fit the best way possible. She was such a pleasure to work with, very accommodating and honest, I wouldn’t go to anyone else. Just amazing work! Thank you Burcu!

Burcu is just the best! She is so knowledgeable and has an eye for design that allowed her to make small adjustments to my dress that made it fit even better than I could have imagined. She is kind, detailed, and patient. Her turn around time is fast and alterations are affordable. I would highly recommend Belia Bridal to anyone!

Burcu is absolutely amazing!!! If you are a San Diego bride, she is a MUST for your alterations! She is so kind, professional, and on top of it all. I could not be happier with my (now) fitted dress. Quick turn around time, great pricing, she is quick to respond, and makes you feel so comfortable and welcome when you meet her. Plus, her new studio is gorgeous.

Beautiful alterations! I had a two piece dress that was a couple sizes too big for the top, and a skirt that needed a bit of adjustment to be taken in to size and hemmed. It was a total transformation - and she helped make sure I felt comfortable and secure in my dress in prep for my mountain wedding this September. Incredibly knowledgeable and talented - I cant wait to wear my dress! Thank you!!!!!!

Highly recommended bridal/ bridesmaid services! Burcu has been such a pleasure to work with. My sister and I both are having dress alterations done by her and she was very easy to get in touch with. She made great recommendations during our first alteration visit. Not only was she very professional but she is so sweet and makes you feel very comfortable ! We can’t wait for the final product!

Review №12

My sister and I had to get alterations for our bridesmaid dresses for a wedding at the end of September and Burcu was more than accommodating! From the second we met her she made us feel super comfortable during the entire fitting process. Her knowledge and passion for this industry definitely showed and it was a pleasure to work with her. She was very very reasonably priced and her turn around time is two weeks which is pretty amazing for this busy wedding season time. I highly highly recommend her!

Burcu was a pleasure to work with! Scheduling appointments was easy, her studio in mission hills is so cute and she was friendly, honest and great to work with. The turnaround time in the alterations was so quick and the work was perfect. My dress fits like a glove and I’m so excited to wear it. She had to take it in a couple of sizes but made it look like it made for me. I’m so pleased with her work! Would defiantly recommend.

I read hundreds of reviews and alteration places in San Diego area for 6 months before I came across the amazing reviews I read about Burcu. I knew, I wanted to have her do my wedding dress alterations and she must be the best! My best friend kindly reminded me to make my appointment because I bought my dress in July 2019 and I called Burcu in October 2019 to get on her calendar for November 2019 for a consultation. She is AMAZING! She is so professional and a beautiful person inside and out who loves her job! Wow, blown away by her knowledge. She was honest with her suggestions, she made me feel special and delivered everything and more that she promised. She took in all my suggestions seriously and delivered my dress more beautiful than I could ever imagine. I loved my appointments and time with her and I am so thankful for her artwork and perfecting my dream dress. I am honored that she worked on my dress. She made sure that I smiled, I was a happy bride, laughed and I was confident the entire time. I cannot wait to send her pictures after my wedding next month! She was able to squeeze in my mom’s dress for the wedding and we are so appreciative. WE ADORE HER! IF YOU ARE A BRIDE IN SAN DIEGO AREA CALL IN ADVANCE AND SCHEDULE YOUR ALTERATIONS WITH BURCU SHE IS THE BEST!!!!!

Burcu is amazing! I’m so happy with all the alterations. She was so patient with me and she explained all alterations in detail. I even came in to one of my fittings a little under the weather and she made sure I felt comfortable and rested when I needed to. If you need alterations done come to her! She will make your dress look even more amazing on you!

My dress came out absolutely amazing!!! Exceeded my expectations! Burcu is such a pleasure to work with. She really pays attention to EVERY detail. I brought in my dress 3 sizes bigger and she was able to alter it down to my size. I never had to hesitate about anything because I know Burcu knew what she was doing . She also custom made my viel to match my dress. I am SO happy with my dress and veil and can’t wait for my big day! 110% recommend, don’t waste your time elsewhere.

I have had the best experience working with Burcu! After being quoted $1000 for alterations and experiencing less than pleasant tailors, I was very discouraged. That’s until I found Belia! She was honest, fair with her price, and communicative throughout the process. Unlike other tailors I spoke with, she ensured I understood and agreed with every alteration along the way AND broke down the price by item. Plus her studio is adorable and welcoming. My dress turned out beautifully!

Review №19

Working with Burcu was such an simple and easy process that leaves me so excited to wear my newly altered bridesmaid dress! She took my strapless dress in so that it fits perfectly and is so comfortable as well. She was available for any questions I had and was able to schedule me in during this busy wedding season. Would definitely recommend Belia Bridal Alterations if you want a quality product done by such a kind and caring professional in the San Diego area!

Burcu was my super hero. I appreciated her kindness and understanding during our fittings. Her turn around was only two weeks and reasonable pricing. I would only wish she does other alterations besides wedding gown so I would bring all my clothes here. I loved my custom made veil. Go girl!

Belia did my wedding dress alterations 1 week prior to my wedding. I couldn’t be happier with my choice. She did a wonderful job. Covered all the basis that I had no idea of when it comes to bridal alterations. I highly recommend her, she’s the best on wedding gown alterations.

I’m so glad I decided to go with Burcu. She is amazing! Really personable, makes you feel at ease—which is really nice when talking to wedding vendors, sometimes they can make you feel very stressed! She never tried to upsell me, she was honest but didn’t let her opinion overtake mine. And efficient as well as affordable—everything you want in an alterations person!

Belia Bridal is the hidden gem for any bride-to-be! My wedding dress was tailored to perfection with only one fitting. Burcu understood my style and was incredibly easy to work with. Definitely a 5-Star experience with zero stress.

Burcu is amazing, thorough, and sees the details and changes that need to be made that you would miss! Her studio is clean and beautiful in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of parking (I have always gotten a spot right in front). I never felt rushed, unsure, or anything less than confident that Burcu would do any amazing job! If you want quality from a seasoned professional, you need to go to Belia Bridal!

Love love love working with Burcu! She is so professional, her rates are very reasonable, and she is very welcoming. She definitely knows what she is doing when it comes to alterations. I found her through the Jana Ann couture business and I could not be more pleased to share my experience. I was a little nervous at first because I heard so many horror stories when it comes to the alterations departments being pushy and rude, but as soon as I met Burcu I knew I was in good hands. She talked to me to really make sure she knew what I was looking to alter on my wedding dress and she explained to me exactly what she could do. Every step of the way she explained the process so I had full confidence in her. She suggested different bustles and explained what the pros were, so i could make a good decision. She then worked out a time for me to pick up my dress and to my surprise, she finished so quickly and its absolutely perfect. She even explained to me about how to properly steam the material for my dress. I loved her work and will continue to refer all my friends to her for bridal needs! Thank you Belia Bridal!

Burcu is amazing!!! I bought two dresses overseas that needed some work (hemming, taking in). She really took her time in looking at what needs to be done for my dresses and I did not feel pressured to get work done on anything I did not want. She was also very fast in getting my dress done. She is a one person shop so I knew what I told her would be translated into the dress. Her prices were very reasonable and I could not be happier with the results!

My wife and I were pleased to meet her. My wife recently moved to San Diego from Greece and she did not feel confident enough to speak English fluently but Burcu was great and easy to communicate through the alterations. My wife loved her and I was so happy to see my wife as beautiful as she was at our wedding!

I have worked with Burcu on my wedding gowns alterations while I was expecting. Some ladies can relate this, it not only becoming a mother requires too much planning I also had my wedding had to be planned. The process was so easy and Burcu was super accommodating through fittings. She was explaining me everything and listening me patiently. There was an appointment I had to reschedule she was as sweet as always and booked me an another appointment with no problem. Prices was reasonable versus couple other places I was searching in San Diego area. Her place was clean and peaceful. I would recommend her to anyone.

Thank you so much for the Best Wedding Gift! I purchased a dress from BHLDN Carlsbad . They only had referrals around Carlsbad and due to reviews and limited location options I did not feel comfortable to work with the shops on their list. I found Burcu on Yelp and I was so exited to see her already. She was very kind and patient for every steps during the alterations. She also create me a cutest custom made garter from my extra lace. Two weeks turn around, reasonable prices and you do not have to compromise the quality .

Burcu did an incredible job altering my wedding dress. I wore my grandmothers 60 year old lace dress, and Burcu was not only able to make it a little larger so it would fit me, she also changed the design to make it exactly what I was looking for. She was a pleasure to work with, and was very good about saying what we could and couldnt do with the dress given how delicate the lace was. She was always very timely in responding to my texts. She is a perfectionist that will work on a dress until she is completely satisfied with it. I cant recommend her highly enough!

Burcu was super helpful, fast and talented. I trusted her with my gown after I had read great great reviews on Yelp. It only took 2 weeks turn around for the alterations. I recommend her to any Bride.

First time ever getting alterations done and really satisfied with Burcus work and professionalism. Got my wedding dress from BHLDN, which is lace, and she was able to hem it perfectly and added a bustle and bra cups. Quick turnaround time, easy communication, and reasonable prices. Highly recommend.

I took my wedding dress to Burcu for alterations after a recommendation from a friend and Im so glad that I did! She was so helpful through the whole process and I could tell immediately how incredibly skilled she is at what she does. My dress needed to be taken in quite a bit and the length shortened as well. But she also gave me options for more alterations that really took the dress to the next level. She replaced my dresss zipper with a better quality one, sewed a corset into the dress so my strapless gown wouldnt fall down anymore, and even made me a custom veil. Im so glad that I went to her for all of this work. My dress fits like a glove and is literally perfect in every way! And Im so happy with the quality of the alterations and the finished product! Thank you, Burcu for being so amazing and helpful and for making my dress even better than I could have possibly imagined! :)

Burcu is amazing! I was in the middle of an eight week challenge and lost weight after my initial alterations. With only a week’s notice she fit me in for another alteration! She provided suggestions for making a few changes to my dress since I wasn’t initially liking the top part of my dress. She also added the belt I had purchased online which I later found out she actually makes belts that are very elegant. I definitely recommend going to Burcu for your bridal alterations.

If you need to get your wedding dress tailored, Barcu is your girl. She was extremely professional, friendly and honest. She took the time to make sure every detail was correct and exactly how I wanted it to be. I appreciate that she didn’t try to oversell me on her services, but instead went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with my dress. Since she did such a great job on my main wedding dress, I had her tailor my reception dress as well. In addition to her great tailoring skills, her rates are very reasonable and a lot less than similar tailors in San Diego. Barcu makes the tailoring process pain free and somehow actually enjoyable. Thanks again, Barcu!

I highly recommend Burcu to brides looking for wedding gown alteration. She’s transparent with costs and what would look great on you! There is no fluff. I love Burcu’s style. I even adore her shop. She is a one-person shop so I feel like I really get a one on one with her.There are challenges with my gown; however, she made sure I would look great on it and gave me a fair price! She altered my BHLDN dress to perfection. Could not recommend Burcu more! I cannot wait to get married with my beautiful gown.

If you’re looking to get anything altered, Burcu at Belia Bridal is amazing! She did an incredible job on my wedding dress for about half the price of what I was quoted at several other bridal alterations, in under three weeks. Burcu owns her own shop, so every alteration and all the fittings are done personally and only by her. She is also super friendly and so much fun to talk to while you’re standing there for your fittings! :)I have a ball gown style dress, and she hemmed all 7-8 layers, removed the beading from under my arms, and stitched part of the neckline so it was more flattering. She took the time to explain each step she would need to take, gave me all the options for each type of alteration, and also gave a TON of advice of what items to keep on hand for day-of emergencies. Overall, great service and the dress is perfect! Thanks, Burcu!!

I dont know how to start... i bought my wedding dress in February from some boutique in San Diego and they took my measurements to order the wedding dress from New York. Long shorty short, my wedding dress came almost 1 size small, especially belt side.My time was super short but lots of things needed to be done. I was going crazy about how small my wedding dress was.Burcu did fantastic job for resizing my wedding dress. It turned out a perfect fit for my body and body shape.Also i ordered a dress online for my wedding toast party and it turned out a disaster. I found a nice dress almost 1 day before my event. Thanks God Burcu was able to alter my last minute dress.She saved my life twice. Just in case if you need any emergency situation, i can assure she will be there for you to do what she can.I will be back with my future purchases for sure :)

Burcu is awesome. She made this experience fun and very comfortable. You can see that she’s worked with highly anxious bride. She was very reassuring and positive. She only is very confident in her craft, her idea to create a bussel that matches the front of my grown is genius! Love Burcu!!

Burcu (buhr-juu) of Belia Bridal Alterations is AMAZING!I brought my Cosmobella by Demetrios gown that I purchased through Brides of San Diego to Burcu to have hemmed, taken in, add bustle and cups. Burcu provided many options based on my budget and never pressured me into anything I wasnt interested in.Her knowledge and meticulousness really shines and she was able to deliver my FLAWLESS gown within 4 weeks of my initial fitting.She knows how to make wedding gowns fit like a glove on the brides she works with! Make sure to book in advance as she fills up quickly!

BURCU IS A LIFE SAVER! I was recommended to her by a friend and I am forever grateful. I originally went to the seemtress recommended by the shop I got my dress from. Right awayt could tell this place was a little fishy but with little time to my wedding day I still went with them. Long story short they messed up my gown and over charged me. In tears one of my bridesmaids recommended Burcu after she had used her for her wedding. When I arrived for my appointment she was extremely welcoming. I told her about the other place and she was able to fix the gown and the rest of my alterations. not only did she make my dress look perfect, she did it for a fraction of the cost the other place charged! She was very precise and made sure I loved everything every step of the way. I will recommend her to all my friends in need of alterations. THANK YOU BURCU!!
