The Alteration Process
- Call/make appt about 3 months before your wedding. If under 12 weeks I may still be able to accommodate you, but a rush fee will incur.
- Allow an hour for each fitting, especially the 1st fitting.
- 1ST FITTING: 1 Hour
- Fitting Fee of $100- this will cover up to 3 fittings/ 3 hours. This is a ONE TIME fee.
- You need to bring shoes, and/or shapewear you will be wearing to the wedding. You are welcome to keep these items with your dress if more convenient.
- 2nd FITTING: 30min-1hr
- We will check the 'rough draft' of alterations & make any necessary adjustments
- Payment of $100+/- toward the alterations
