Dress alterations

Sorry just to add 1 is a sample dress and the other is off the peg so the bridal shop arent do either

Hi,

I'm getting married in mid may too - 5 months today!!!

I am having my first dress fitting on 17th January - with 2 more after that.

Though my dress is 2 sizes bigger than me & there's a lot of it, but my alterations lady told me that January would be a good time - have you founf someone to do it for you? Or is the shop doing it? As they will be able to tell you.

I booked my lady last November, and she told me to contact her this December to make my first appointment for Jan/Feb time - I'm impatient so booked it as early as I could

So I think February should be about right but best to check with the person that'll be doing it - unless you/relative are that is

Good luck!

6 weeks before and 3 weeks before are the best timings to allow for any changes and to ensure it's the closest fit on the day

I have two dresses being altered - one for our legal ceremony and one for our Humanist ceremony. The two ceremonies are 22nd and 28th of this month. I had my first meeting with the seamstress on the 10th (last week) and am seeing her again on Thursday this week.
