Brides both traditional and cutting edge believe that a beautiful headpiece is the crowning touch to any wedding outfit.  An elaborate one can give a simple dress a more formal appearance, while a simple headpiece balances a more ornate gown.

Many New York-area-brides-to-be schedule a trip to Boston to visit the Altered Bride to view its collection of more than 150 headpieces.  The Altered Bride can restore, redesign, and custom fit an heirloom gown, embellishing it with old-fashioned lace and trimmings if a bride desires.  The shop also features gloves, jewelry, garters, and more than 50 styles of bridal shoes.
