Wedding Gown & Bride Attire Alterations

To ease your stress of getting your wedding dress alterations, it's best to purchase your dress early, leaving a sufficient amount of time for your fittings and tailoring. Purchase your wedding dress at least ten months before the wedding if possible. Two months before the wedding schedule a fitting, which will give you enough time to make any final significant changes. 

Bridal alterations can be costly, upwards from $500 - $700

When you visit your tailor, make sure to bring the shoes you'll wear at the wedding. This will help the tailor so he can adjust the hem.

When ordering your dress, never order to small of a dress for motivation. Instead, you want to consider a gown with structure. Approximately 40% of gowns have built-in corsets, that can be easily tightened or loosened. Try an A-line gown, which will cover lingering pounds. Rule of thumb the slinkier the gown makes it harder to fix the fit if you lose for gain weight.
