Alterations
BE READY FOR YOUR FIRST FITTING!
- Have your shoes!
- Bring all the undergarments you plan to wear with your gown.
- To avoid increased costs, keep your weight consistent during your alterations.
- Budget: the average cost is between $500 and $900.
- Start at least two months prior to your wedding... three if possible, or if customizing.
- Expect to come back for your 2nd fitting about 2 weeks after your 1st. It may take 3-5 fittings to perfect you gown.
- We alter gowns purchased elsewhere and other clothing items!
