Hello! I was just wondering if anyone could share their experiences so I know if this is the norm?
My bridal dress shop told me to come in for my first fitting 12 weeks before the wedding. I assumed it was so we could have a few fittings. I had my first fitting yesterday and they said they didn't need to see me until 2 - 3 weeks before the wedding. I asked what happens if I loose weight between now and then and they seemed a bit almost surprised that I might loosed weight when there's still 3 months to go until the wedding!! I asked if they could start the alterations later but they said they have to start the fitting now as May is really busy, and if I need further alterations when I go back 2-3weeks before the wedding they'll have to charge me again (I'm paying £175 to have it taken up and in, and to have the bustle added).
Is it normal to go in so soon, and not expect to go back until that close to the wedding? It seemed a bit odd to me, but because it's a large reputable shop I didn't know whether to argue!
Cheers,
Becky
