Your wedding day is a huge day in your life and you may need a lot of alterations carried out, from the bridesmaids dresses to the flower girl outfits to the special dressing gowns you’ll be wearing in the morning, whatever you need done we will be delighted to take the pressure off you. As you can imagine it is always better to give yourself lots of time with these things, the earlier you buy the dress and the sooner you come in for a fitting then the easier the process will be. Please ensure that when you arrive for your fitting that you have your wedding shoes with you and it is going to be ideal if you are wearing the same undergarments that you will be wearing on the wedding day such as the bra. It can also be a good idea to bring a friend or a relative as an extra pair of eyes can make all the difference as they can offer a valuable opinion and they might spot a detail at the back of the dress that escaped your attention.
When it comes to specific alterations there is so much we can do but it entirely depends on the dress and the individual. For example we can shorten the dress, adjust the hem, take it in at the sides and let it out to a certain extent as well. We can alter the shoulders and work with straps in a flexible and practical way. We will be able to shorten the veil and the train if you so require and we could add some fabric to the shoulders or the sleeve to enhance your beautiful wedding dress. Some brides like a pocket in their wedding dress and this certainly has practical advantages, for example it useful to have a pocket to store a tissue or some lipstick. Another convenient alteration we can do is to add in a train loop that can hold and hang your train if you are dancing or if you just want to keep it from the ground. In some cases we have replaced and repaired the zip on the wedding dress and even replaced a zip with buttons for one particular bride. There is so much that we can do but it all starts with that initial fitting so we can see the dress on you and examine your body shape.
All wedding dresses should be altered because it is practically impossible for a wedding dress to be a perfect fit at the first attempt and you can’t beat that comfortable feeling of knowing that your dress compliments your body.

There you’ll be greeted by a friendly face and large spacious changing rooms. We look forward to seeing you very soon.
