Our Bridal Alterations Process
Your bridal dress alterations process will likely require two to three visits to ensure the final result is exactly to your liking. Here’s a look at the simple alterations process:
Initial Consultation
Your experience begins with a consultation where we discuss your wedding gown, style preferences, accessories, and overall vision for the big day. During this consultation, we will also talk to you about the cost so that there are no unnecessary financial surprises at a time when budgets are important.
Fitting Appointment
During your fitting appointment, our seamstresses assess the garment and identify the alterations required to achieve the perfect fit. To make sure the alterations will be perfect, we strongly advise that you bring your wedding day shoes with you, as the footwear can impact your overall appearance and the way the dress needs to be altered.
Precision Alterations
Using years of expertise and an eye for detail, we work our magic and carefully alter the dress while preserving the integrity of the fabrics, lace, and design features.
Final Fitting
Before your wedding day, we schedule a final appointment to ensure everything fits perfectly and looks exactly as planned. During the final fitting, if any minor alterations are required, they can be done immediately. If you require any form of dry cleaning, then this is when to ask, and we will help.
