We require 6-8 for alterations. However you can start them as early as possible if you are maintaining your weight. Our seamstress has worked in the business for over 20 years and has altered many different designers with over 1,000 gowns.
Be sure to bring your day-of essentials to get a true fit. You will need to bring your day of wedding shoes or similar shoes with exact heel height.
If your weight fluctuates after you've ordered your dress, or even after it arrives, don't worry too much. If a bride loses weight, the gown will be taken during your fitting appointment. If a bride gains weight, we will try to open the seams and release some extra fabric, "If there is not enough fabric to work with, we can order fabric from the designer and a panel can be added to the dress.
If your are adding lace, sleeves ect that will be done during your first fitting. Usually you will only need 2 fittings.
Your second fitting is when you visualize the perfect gown on your perfect day and can really see it on you.
We will do a light steam and package your gown so it ready for its debut down the aisle.
