The Process

From consultation to the morning of the wedding

Bridal alterations typically take 6–8 weeks across 2–3 fittings. Book your first appointment 3–6 months out to leave room to spare.

01

Consultation

Book online or by phone. A $100 deposit secures your appointment and comes off your final alterations bill.

02

First Fitting

Your stylist assesses the gown or suit and gives you an exact number of fittings and a timeframe before any work begins.

03

Fitting & Refit

Return for pinning and adjustment checks. The same stylist sees you at every appointment, right through to the last.

04

Final Fitting

Try on the finished garment. One last adjustment is possible here if anything needs a final touch.

FAQ

Before your first fitting

On average, bridal alterations take 6–8 weeks with a minimum of two fittings, and suits take around two weeks. After we assess your garment at the first fitting, you'll be given an exact timeframe and number of fittings. Basic alterations, like hemming for suits or bridesmaid dresses, can be done in 1–2 weeks with a single fitting.
