Recommendation for expert Alteration for jeans witih a flare, please!

I bought a pair of jeans that fit perfectly, except - of course - they have a 34" inseam and my legs are a mere 32" long. (Yes, 31" length jeans are too short on me, and these are the choices in Joe's jeans.)

They supposedly are "boot cut" but in my opinion they are flared, but I like the way they look with heels. I need them to be on the dressier side for a special occassion Tuesday 12/13.

Can you recommend a tailer who is very good at shortening jeans that have a flare? I don't need the original hem put on - I just don't want to have them altered and hate the way they look if it isn't well done.

Did I mention I need them done by Tuesday?

Thanks!

Used Mar-Ant for years. He can alter everything from a couture gown to Joe's Jeans. Storefront on SO Ave. next to Mark Murphy's Music.

Mar-Ant is definitely highly competent.

Following up with who I found in case it helps someone in the future. To my great surprise and pleasure, there is an excellent alterations dept at the Moline Kronberg cleaners in Montclair. They were able to do my jeans "rush" (I think I paid a bit extra) for less than I've been charged at Bloomingdales to shorten jeans purchased there. The result was amazing and looks fantastic even after laundering! (I'm now completely appalled at the alterations done at bloomingdales in comparison - I'm tempted to take my jeans back to them and show them their alteration vs. what Moline Kronberg did!)

FYI the tailors at Nordstrom are great and you don't need to have bought the item there. If you have a store card and you spend enough you get alteration credits. I think I get $200 a year.
