Bridal Boutique Seamstress - Custom Fittings & Alterations - Aldie, VA

Bridal Seamstress Opportunity

Looking for an experienced bridal seamstress who enjoys working one-on-one with brides through the entire alteration process. Independent contractor role with bookings provided through our platform. The work includes conducting first, second, and final fittings with brides for their wedding gowns, customizing gowns for each bride: hemming, side seams, bodice shaping, neckline adjustments, sleeve modifications, creating bustles tailored to the dress design and the bride's preference, handling bridesmaid dresses, mother-of-the-bride gowns, and ceremony attire alongside the main gown, and walking brides through what is possible with their dress, what timelines look like, and what to expect on the day.

You should have demonstrated bridal alteration experience (portfolio or references welcomed), confidence working with high-value gowns and the patience to fit them properly, and a strong customer-facing presence — brides remember the seamstress who calmed their nerves. A reliable workspace with adequate space for fitting and steaming is also required.

The setup is an independent contractor role — you set your schedule and rates within platform guidelines. Bookings come from local brides searching specifically for someone in your area. Build a public profile that showcases your work and earns repeat referrals. Get paid through the platform after each completed job.
