Lisa’s Bridal is the longest-running bridal store in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, proudly serving brides for generations. Our alterations department has built a longstanding reputation for exceptional workmanship, professionalism, and customer care, and we are seeking experienced Bridal Seamstresses and Fitters to join our busy New Westminster location for the upcoming bridal and prom seasons.

This is a high-level bridal alterations role suited for experienced professionals who are confident working independently in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. We are seeking skilled seamstresses who can provide exceptional one-on-one service to brides while delivering the Lisa’s Bridal Gold Standard of customer care.

Bridal alterations are highly personal, and we are looking for someone who can make brides feel comfortable, confident, and cared for throughout the fitting process.

Candidates should have a minimum of 2–3 years of experience working with wedding gowns, formalwear, or luxury garments in a production-focused alterations environment.

• Working with delicate fabrics including lace, tulle, satin, chiffon, and heavily detailed gowns
• Operating industrial sewing and pressing equipment safely and efficiently
• Maintaining detailed fitting notes and ensuring all work is completed to a high professional standard
• Managing multiple gowns and alteration deadlines simultaneously during peak bridal and prom seasons

This role is physically demanding and requires standing for extended periods, lifting and moving gowns and garment bags, working with industrial sewing and pressing equipment, and performing repetitive detailed sewing work in a fast-paced environment.

Ideal Candidates Will Possess:

• Minimum 2–3 years of bridal or formalwear alterations experience
• Strong fitting, sewing, and garment construction knowledge
• Exceptional attention to detail and finishing quality
• Professional and customer-focused communication skills
• Ability to problem solve and recommend alteration solutions confidently
• Strong organizational and time management skills
• Reliability, punctuality, and the ability to work independently
