When should I schedule my alterations?
I recommend reaching out six months in advance to book your appointment. This will insure we get to work together, as I am a one person operation I can only take on so many gowns. We will schedule your first appointment for 8-12 weeks from your wedding. Your last appointment should take place about 2-3 weeks from your wedding day. This might seem close, but it ensures your dress will fit perfectly on the big day. Please note, any gowns with less than a 3 week turnaround will be charged a rush fee.
How much do alterations cost?
Alterations will generally range from 200-600. Prices really depend on the type of alteration. You can contact me for a free quote, or come in for half hour consultation to get an idea of how much alterations will cost. You can also check out my cost breakdown here.
What should I bring to my fitting?
Lucky for you, I wrote a blog post on this subject! The most important things to bring to your fitting are:
Shoes (I can't hem your gown without them!)
Undergarments (if you are wearing any, a bra for example)
Payment (all payment is due upfront, before alterations begin.)
Can we personalize my gown?
Yes! Custom gown alterations are my favorite! We can create unique accessories, belts, sleeves, whatever you can dream up! If you are looking to create something custom, please contact me as early as possible. I want to work with you, but custom pieces take time!
Do you create custom wedding gowns?
Heck yeah! I love creating custom gowns! If you are interested in having a custom wedding gown made, I require at least 8-12 months for the design and fitting process. The custom process is complicated and requires a lot of communication, so if you are interested I encourage you to email me! I'll ask you some questions about what you are looking for, and we'll begin there.
Is your studio wheelchair accessible?
Unfortunately my studio is not accessible at the moment. However, I still want to work with you! Under certain circumstances, I'm available to travel to your home for fittings. Contact me, and we can chat about any questions or concerns you might have.
