How these were set: your own list as the base, sanity-checked against current rates at comparable alterations shops and national cost guides (June 2026), then rounded. Figures sit mid-range — not the cheapest, in keeping with the quality of your work. The additions are services the market commonly lists that aren't on your 2023 sheet — only add the ones you actually do. Wedding & bridal pricing stays on its own page. Market figures are general context — Hook & Eye sets its own prices.

Draft for Lindsey's review — not published. Final prices and wording are yours to set; these are starting points, and a quote is always confirmed in person.
