My bridal salon called yesterday and told me my dress came in, originally they said it would come in mid to late march but it's here now. I know I have to go in for my first fitting, but I'm trying to lose weight right now so should I wait? or do go for my first fitting any then if I loose more...

My bridal salon called yesterday and told me my dress came in, originally they said it would come in mid to late march but it's here now. I know I have to go in for my first fitting, but I'm trying to lose weight right now so should I wait? or do go for my first fitting any then if I loose more inches by the time my second one comes around they'll take it in again?

I don't really know what I should do. Has anyone been in this situation before?

I had surgery done last week so I haven't been able to eat properly or work out all week. I'm starting back up today.

    Your wedding is 4 months away. You have time for alterations. They don't have to be done now. And if you lose weight, then you will just have to do further alterations closer to the wedding anyway. So there is no point. Once your dress is altered, you need to avoid changes in weight as much as possible.

    I would tell the salon that you want to wait until closer to your wedding for alterations. Ask them if you should take the dress home (be prepared to pay in full if you haven't already). And then book an appointment for 4-6 weeks out.

    My alterations were finished literally a week before my wedding. They don't have to be done this early.
