How to get a wedding dress fitted

Most brides are on an automatic weight loss plan due to nerves and excitement. Be sure to have your dress altered accordingly.

Step 1.Discuss alteration costs when you purchase the dress.

Step 2.Follow the salon's suggestions for fittings. Most will have you in for at least two before the wedding.

Step 3.Discuss with the seamstress the length and style you want before anything is cut or altered.

Step 4.Show up for your fittings relaxed and somewhat put together.

Step 5.Bring your wedding (or comparable) shoes every time so you have a realistic measurement of length.

Step 6.Avoid wearing makeup that might end up on your wedding dress during the fitting.
