First Appointment

We would suggest that you bring the wedding dress to us at your earliest convenience, remembering to bring your shoes and underwear. We will perform an initial consultation, pin the garment and advise you of costs. If you are happy with the costs and go ahead we will keep your dress and agree a date with you for your first fitting. This is usually 6 weeks prior to your wedding. This saves you from having to transport your dress and eliminates any risk of damaging it.

Fittings

Prior to your wedding you will visit us on the agreed date and we will then check and adjust the dress accordingly. One week later the work to your dress will be carried out and we will check with you how the dress fits. If there are any final tweaks or adjustments, we will re-pin and adjust the dress, or if you are happy with the dress, you will collect the dress and take it with you. Please bear in mind, that sometimes more than one fitting might be required to deliver you the perfect wedding dress.

All fittings are free. We only charge for the work we perform and you only pay for the work we agree to do once. For example, if we take in the dress and it still does not fit correctly when you try the dress on, we do not charge again.
