Consultation- Wedding dress

Consultation- Wedding dress

A 1 hour consultation where you can try on your wedding dress and we will discuss the adjustments required to make the perfect fit for your special day! Friday’s are for collecting only! Please do not book a new appointment on a Friday as I need to save the time for existing clients to collect their finished items. Please remember to bring an under skirt (if you have one) and shoes that are the same height you will wear with your dress. ✨ Bridal Alterations Timing Policy Ideally, brides book their alterations approximately 10 weeks before the wedding date. This allows plenty of time for careful fittings, thoughtful adjustments, and a relaxed, enjoyable process. If you are planning to lose or gain weight before your wedding, we can schedule your first fitting once your size has stabilized. In these cases, the latest I can begin alterations is 6 weeks prior to the wedding date to ensure there is adequate time for proper tailoring and final refinements.
