What do wedding dress alteration services include?

No need to panic while counting down until your wedding day.


Bridal alterations near you cover wedding gowns, bridesmaid dresses, and other bridal garments. Professionals skilled in this area can give you the confidence to grace the ceremony with beauty, elegance, and most especially comfort. Who doesn’t want to feel at ease while posing for wedding group photos, mingling with family and friends, sharing a memorable toast with the guests, and slow dancing with their partner?


A wardrobe malfunction shouldn’t be in the picture, so it’s wise to get the necessary alterations weeks before the special day. Here are more details about bridal alterations:


Altering the hem

While most brides go for long gowns that give off that mesmerising look, some prefer their wedding dresses shorter. After all, they’re helpful when it comes to lessening the chances of you tripping or ruining the dress altogether.


If you relate to this, you can connect with a bridal alteration specialist who can adjust the hem of your dress to match with your height or style better. Here’s a tip: Bring your wedding heels on the alteration appointment day. This can further help your Tasker figure out the right hem length for you.


Altering the side seams

The one-size-fits-all wedding gown doesn’t exist—each body is built and shaped differently. So, the purpose of altering the side seams of your dress is to accentuate your body shape and make your silhouette much more visible. 


Usually, this process involves fitting on the hips, waist, and butt. It’s best to coordinate with your Tasker to know if it’s possible to alter the dress size, too.


Altering the neckline

Your wedding dress is as gorgeous as you expected, but does the neckline seem a bit off? Whether it’s straight, V-neck, high neck, bateau, and halter strap, trust that your Tasker can make adjustments until you feel satisfied with the fit. Also consider your body type and accessories when choosing a neckline.


If you’ve ticked off the wedding gown matters done, why not proceed to hiring someone who can take care of the hairstyling and makeup department, too?


Other special alterations

Managed to get cool off-the-rack or ready-to-wear bridal garments? Special wedding dress alterations are ideal for personalising these. Whether it’s adding a complex lace pattern or a certain amount of tulle for extra oomph, just align with your Tasker regarding your expectations.

Shorten hem line of a wedding dress

$60

West End Brisbane, QLD, Australia

12th May 2024

I am looking for someone to take up my wedding dress. It has 4 layers to it (as shown in the photos) - 3 of the layers will need to be stitched and the other looks like it can be cut without stitching. It needs to be taken up approximately 10 cm. It also has a train which I would be keen to have a loop added to, to allow for it to be bustled. As it's a second hand dress, alteration didn't come with the purchase.

Jean did a wonderful job shortening my wedding dress and is just generally an incredibly lovely person who I would be very happy to bring any items of clothing to for alteration. Would recommend!
