Wedding dress

Hi, I bought my wedding dress August 2023 with my wedding September 24! At my first fitting after my dress arriving I tried it on.. far too tight! Can’t comfortably walk or sit down at all!! The dress shop ordered my dress in a uk 8, normal clothing I’m a uk 10. My next fitting for alterations is in a few weeks and I'm terrified to try it on again! Has anyone experienced this and had the dress comfortably taken out and it all be okay on the day? I’m so worried it’s not going to fit on the day.

    What did the dress shop say about alterations? They are used to doing this kind of thing all the time, so hopefully should be able to give you an accurate idea of what is feasible.

    Does your weight fluctuate a lot? If you've put on a bit since you were first measured, you might lose it again before the next fitting.

    I’m sure you can take it out if it’s just a bit tight. I’m sure a lot of wedding dresses go through these types of alterations. I wouldn’t worry too much. Speak with the shop when you go to try it on and see what they suggest. I’m sure they’ve had many similar cases and I’m sure it’ll all end up perfect!
