Alterations
At Voeux Couture, we offer expert bridal alterations to ensure your wedding gown fits flawlessly. Whether you purchased your gown from our boutique or elsewhere, our experienced seamstresses provide high-level alterations, from standard adjustments to custom modifications that enhance your gown’s beauty and fit.
Timing
For the best fit, we recommend beginning your alterations 8 to 12 weeks before your wedding. This timeframe allows for multiple fittings and ensures we can make precise adjustments without significant changes in your body shape.
While we may be able to accommodate alterations within a shorter timeframe, rush services are subject to availability and may incur an additional fee.
Fittings
Bridal alterations typically require two to three fittings to achieve the perfect fit:
First Fitting: Your gown will be pinned, and we’ll discuss the necessary adjustments.
Second Fitting: Refinements will be made to fine-tune the fit before any fabric is cut.
Final Fitting (if needed): Final adjustments and finishing touches to ensure perfection.
After alterations are complete, your gown will be pressed, steamed, and prepared for pickup so it’s wedding-day ready!
What to Bring
To ensure the most accurate fit, please bring:
The shoes you’ll be wearing on your wedding day.
Any undergarments or shapewear you plan to wear with your gown.
Pricing
Alterations pricing varies based on the gown’s design, construction, and the complexity of the adjustments needed. While pricing is confirmed at your first fitting, bridal alterations typically start at $850+.
If you’d like an estimate before your appointment, feel free to send us:
Photos of your dress or a link to an image.
The designer and style name.
Any custom modifications you’re considering.
