What do wedding dress alteration services include?

Bridal alterations near you cover wedding gowns, bridesmaid dresses, and other bridal garments. Alteration experts can make sure that you and your bridal entourage look and feel fabulous with your attire as you pose for your wedding photos or dance the night away with your spouse!

You wouldn't want to deal with unexpected dress mishaps on your special day, especially after planning every detail of your wedding carefully for months. Ergo, it's essential to get the necessary alterations at least weeks before your wedding date.

Altering the hem

Most brides opt for longer wedding gowns to look more elegant and ethereal. However, if you were able to spot an off-the-rack wedding gown and prefer it shorter, an alteration expert can easily adjust its hem to suit your height or style better. A shorter hem is also more manageable with lesser chances of you tripping and ruining your dress altogether. On the day of your alteration appointment, you can choose to wear your wedding heels so your Tasker can figure out the right hem length for you.

Altering the side seams

Naturally, there's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all wedding gown as each body is built and shaped differently. Altering your wedding gown's side seams can easily help accentuate your body shape and make your silhouette much more visible. The process typically involves fitting on the hips, waist, and butt. You can also consult with your Tasker to know if it's possible to alter the dress size, and they can provide you with useful information!

Altering the neckline

From straight, v-neck, and high neck to sweetheart, bateau, and halter strap, the neckline options are pretty much endless! In case your wedding dress neckline isn't what you expected, your Tasker can also make adjustments until you find the most flawless fit. 

There are many things to consider when picking a neckline, including your body type and wedding accessories. Your Tasker can give you valuable tips so you can decide which one flatters your body and style the most. Once you have your wedding gown all sorted, you can finally set aside some time to look for professionals who can style your hair and do your make-up on your big day!

Other special alterations

Special wedding dress alterations are ideal for personalising off-the-rack or ready-to-wear bridal garments. If you want to add a unique or intricate lace pattern or a specific amount of tulle, your alteration expert can get it done for you! You can also have a personalised sleeve style, a fuller hem, or a longer train–it's all up to you!

From Garment Shortening, Suit Alterations, and Zipper Repair; you can get all types of Wedding Dress Alterations done usually between £105-£105, with the median price of Wedding Dress Alterations in London East London being £105.

Alter my lace wedding dress

£150

Central Parade, Greater London

29th May 2022

I have purchased a wedding dress in the correct size (10). But it still needs a few alterations. The shoulders need to be taken in without damaging the sleeve and it needs to be shortened. All of the alterations are possible and the boutique has offered to do it for me. However, I'd like to see if I could beat the price they quoted. They explained that the alterations are going to be more expensive than my expectations because the dress bodice was made of lace and appliques. However, I have already paid extra to have the dress made in the correct size and proportions. So I'd like to see if independent seamstresses can offer a better price with the same result. A few extra notes: - Ideally, I'd find a seamstress who's based in North or East London - The photos are from the designer and just a couple of photos I took of the lace. - Due date: Before Friday, 15 July 2022
