bridal alterations

FOR THE PERFECT FIT

Gown and Altar offer alterations services for both our collection gowns and wedding dresses purchased elsewhere. Our team of experienced bridal seamstresses will ensure a perfect fit for your special day. Whether it’s taking up a hem or completely remodeling an heirloom vintage dress we are here for you.

 
  • Wedding dress alterations can be complex, no dress is the same so if you are after an estimate before booking in with us feel free to email us photos of your dress for ball park pricing.

  • Please allow a minimum of two weeks for a simple alteration. Resizing and other extensive alterations will require 4-6 weeks. Please allow more time if your wedding date is between November and March as these months are extremely busy.

    1. Book an alterations appointment on our website or call us on 020 4440442

    2. 1st Fitting : Bring your dress and shoes in to our studio. We will fit the dress on you to determine what alterations are required.

    3. A quote and time estimate will be provided following your appointment - if not on the same day. A 50% deposit is required if you decide to go ahead with the alterations.

    4. Second fitting : If required we will fit the dress on you once the alterations have been made before closing up the dress and making any final alterations.

    5. Collection : A final fitting to check the completed alterations and to take your beautiful dress home!

  • Bring with you your wedding shoes and any underwear you intend to wear with your dresss. It is best to avoid wearing make-up as this can transfer easily on the dress and many bridal fabrics are difficult to spot clean. We have make-up wipes in our studio if you need to remove make-up before your fitting.

 

Appointments are available Tuesday & Thursday-Saturday.
