I’ve spent years working with lace, silk, and more tulle than I can count, but my favorite part of this job isn’t actually the sewing—it’s the moment you look in the mirror and finally see the bride you’ve always imagined.

I started The Lace Exchange because I realized that the alterations process shouldn't feel like a scary doctor’s appointment or a stressful chore. It should feel like getting ready with your best friends!

Hey, I’m Annie — your new favorite third wheel

the founder

Sarah M.

"I’m going to be so real—I was a total ball of nerves about my alterations. My dress was two sizes too big and the lace was so intricate I was terrified someone would ruin it. From the second I walked into The Lace Exchange, all that stress just melted away. Annie talked to me like a sister and walked me through every single pin. When I put it on for my final fitting, I actually cried. It didn't just 'fit'—it felt like it was made specifically for my body. If you’re a nervous bride, go here. You’re in the best hands possible!"

They talked to me like I was a sister and a best friend.

"If you're picky like me, you need to book The Lace Exchange. I was so worried about the neckline of my gown and kept overthinking every little detail. The team was so patient with me! They listened to every one of my 'what-ifs' and gave me the most honest, helpful advice. It felt like I was just hanging out with my best friends, but friends who happen to be genius seamstresses. My dress was flawless, the bustle held up all night through some serious dancing, and I’ve never felt more beautiful."

It felt less like an appointment and more like a creative hangout.

I had a nightmare experience with a different shop and came to The Lace Exchange pretty panicked and very close to my wedding date. I was so scared it wouldn't be done in time or that it would be a rush job. Not only did they calm me down, but the team was so professional and kind. They handled a complicated French bustle like it was nothing and kept me updated the whole time. Walking down the aisle, I felt so confident and secure. I can’t thank the squad enough for saving my dress and my sanity!

They gave me tips and tricks I didn't even know to ask for.

OLIVIA B

I’m a total perfectionist, I loved my dress, but the bodice felt 'off,' and I was so scared that fixing it would change the look of the gown entirely. I walked into The Lace Exchange feeling so vulnerable, but the team were incredible. They didn't just 'take it in'—they explained how the architecture of the dress worked and made me feel listened to. They fixed things I didn’t even know were possible! By my final fitting, all my fear was gone and replaced with pure excitement. I felt so comfortable, so supported, and truly like the best version of myself. If you want a team that actually cares about how you feel (not just how the dress looks), this is it!
