In what world would a random Italian tailor in New York be the "perfect" person to fix a snag in the lace of an 150+ year-old veil?
Emma had just married into the di Stefano family of lace-makers, whose ancestors had created that veil for a member of the family. And the snag happened at the wedding in Italy, with the entire family RIGHT THERE. Emma could have left it with the family and they could have fixed it and sent it to Tracy. Neither Emma nor Tracy seem concerned in the least about the damage.
I know they needed a way for Tracy to meet Nick while in possession of the veil, but they could have found a way that wasn't complete nonsense.
