A wedding dress fitting appointment involves a fitter or seamstress altering the dress to achieve the correct fit and sculpt of the wedding gown to the body. Brides usually requiring a few fittings before the dress is ready for the big day. Every dress will need altered even if the alterations are minor, just to ensure the best fit. Even if you spend extra money on that extra special dress, it may not look better than a much less expensive dress if it is not properly altered.

What to bring to your first alterations appointment:

SHOES that you will wear on your wedding day, to ensure the perfect hem length.

UNDERGARMENTS you plan to wear, to ensure a proper fit. Cups can be sewn into the gown for your comfort.

Types of Alterations

Basic alterations of wedding dresses include an adjustment to the sides of the gown, hemming its length, and fine-tuning its fit. When a gown is well-fitted it should complement and accentuate the shape of the body and properly support and shape the bust. It should also be long enough to cover the shoes without turning into a tripping hazard.

Some additional custom alterations available include details such as beading, a bustle, buttons, off-the-shoulder straps, train length adjustment, lace appliqués, and sleeves.

We also offer alterations for bridesmaid dresses and dresses for other formal occasions.
