Karime and her husband Fabio (office mgr) made me feel wonderful throughout the process of adjusting my dress from a strapless to an Islamic modest one. They were both awesome at customer service, adjusting, and purchasing items I needed to make it more elegant. Every Houston bride should consider using them for dress alteration - you won't go wrong.

It was wonderful to work with Karime and Laura- they took good care of me and listened to my concerns and ideas about how I wanted my dress altered. Karime is one of the best Houston area tailors and made my gorgeous dress fit like a glove!
Her bustles are especially pretty and unique- I've never seen a bustle that makes the dress look even prettier like hers do!
We were so impressed that we asked her to alter my mothers dress also.
I would definitely recommend this vendor to anyone who needs quality alterations and great service.

She is wonderful. I bought my dress from a consignment shop and it was several sizes too large. She altered it perfectly and took out several petticoat layers to make it seem like it was made for me. I would recommend her to anyone based on her skill alone, but the fact that she is so nice and sweet makes her services all the more better.

I would highly suggest going to Karime. She does high quality work and is very affordable. I've known other brides whose alterations cost MORE than their dress! That is just ridiculous and there is no need for that. Her bustles are obsolutely gorgeous and I can't wait for everone to see my dress. I have two other friends who have used Karime, and I plan on spreading the word to any other friends who are getting married! Thanks Karime!

Karime is SOOO talented! My dress was beautiful before and even more beautiful when Karime got done bustling it and custom fitting it to my figure. Laura's Coutre alterations should be the first place you take you wedding dress to!

I too had read comments on wedding wire and heard all the good things other brides had to say about their alterations. So I drove all the way from the other side of town and I am so glad I did. I was very very happy with the outcome of my gown. I have a corset back gown that simply needed alterations for the length and a bussle; however she also altered a few sections in the bust area. It turned out very beautiful, I love my gown even more! She was very attentive to details and what I was comfortable with. I would recommend her to anyone.

Laura's Couture & Alterations were absolutely amazing! Karami is an absolute angel. She took my beautiful dress and made it into the most unbelievable gown I have EVER seen! She can do absolute anything you want and could ever dream of and has wonderful ideas. Not only can she do anything but she is so extremely wonderful to work with; not only her but her entire family! The only regret I have is that I will not be able to spend anymore time with her because she was such a joy to be around!

She was very friendly, professional and very understanding of what needed to be done. She made any changes that I wanted and she did not push me to get alterations that were not needed. She only did alterations that I wanted and that was great!. Her prices were also very affordable.

I bought my dress at David's Bridal. I had tried on several dresses and loved the one I bought, except for one thing. It wasn't a sweetheart neckline. David's Bridal offered to "pin it" in the middle to make it "appear" sweetheart. I was nervous from the beginning to have David's Bridal do my alterations, so I took my dress to Princess Bridal in Spring, Texas. Karime with Laura's Couture & Alterations did an amazing job! It took one appointment for pinning and measurements, and at my second appointment it fit perfectly and the sweetheart neckline looked like it had been made that way from the start. My dress is PERFECT thanks to Karime. You can't trust just anyone with your dress, but brides you CAN trust this vendor!

I was referred to Laura'a Couture Alterations from the bridal salon I purchased my wedding gown. From the very first visit to my last, Fabio and Laura made me feel right at home. They were very professional and a delight to work with. Not to mention my dress fit me like a glove!

My dress fit perfectly and it's all because of Laura's Couture & Alterations. She did an amazing job and very quickly too I might add. I don't know how she does it but I highly recommend taking your dress here so that she can work her magic.

Karime Morales is a wedding dress genius. I ordered a dress from Encore Bridal (if you want a designer dress in perfect condition for a fraction of the price, this is your place) online - it was a beautiful Jenny Lee dress, but it didn't fit (I didn't expect it to). Karime altered it beautifully and created the most gorgeous bustle. I have 2 other friends getting married this year, and both opted to go with Karime at Laura's Couture and Alterations rather than having alterations done at the bridal salons where their dresses were purchsed. She will clean your dress, as well (mine had a few dirty spots after bridal portraits), and is so kind and professional. I would highly recommend having alterations done by her!

I would highly recommend LAURA'S COUTURE & ALTERATIONS to Brides. Before I had my alterations done I felt like my dress could have been anyone’s. Once alterations had been done I felt like my dress was made for me!!!

Laura's Couture had the tough job of re-doing my dress after another seamstress altered it incorrectly. She was very patient and professional. I thought that I would have to start over and get a new dress, but she was able to save the dress. She had to re-do all of the beading and reopen the dress to make new alterations. She was wonderful to work with.
