Last minute alterations!

My wedding is in 8 days LOL andddd I tried my dress on last night and it .... was very loose up top (I have a sheath capsleeve type dress). I had lost 7 pounds since the alterations a few weeks ago and really didn’t think it’d make that big of a difference (I’m 5’9”). I panicked! But I called David’s bridal right when they opened and came in a few hours later- they’ll have my dress ready in 2 days. I’m so relieved.
just wanted to share this because

- if you’re on health regime you may want to pre schedule an alteration 1 or 2 weeks before just in case
-last minute alterations can be done! My Db was awesome about it

    My seamstress was continuing to make my dress smaller 3 days before my wedding! They can work magic!

    I'm picking my dress up 6 days before the wedding, but that's also my final fitting. The seamstress blocks out 1-3 hours just in case anything needs to be fixed!

    That was so nice of them! Glad it worked out for you! My DB store told me to have a final fitting at least 4 weeks before.

    This happened to me too! I lost 10 pounds by my first fitting. We hosted out-of-town family the week before our wedding & I lost another 5 pounds. My seamstress fit me in (thank goodness I wasn’t getting married in a busy month!).

    Good thing you tried your dress on again. 😁
