Starting to freak out.

Cheryl, on January 13, 2020 at 7:00 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 9
My wedding is April 4th, I spoke to the lady doing my alterations and she told me to have my dress there at the beginning of March. To me that doesn't seem like a lot of time to get everything done. I'm thinking about calling the other 2 places in town and see what they say.

    That's not enough time in case you need a 2nd fitting!

    That's what I was thinking!!! I'm going to call around to a few places tomorrow. One specializes in wedding dress and formal wear.

    I would call other places. I had to get on David's Bridal to make sure my alterations could start mod February.

    My wedding date is the same as yours and I agree that March may be cutting it close. It all depends on your dress and what alterations you want/need. I know I only need hemming and bustle so they told me I'd be okay until mid-February before needing to go.

    I'm assuming I only need it hemmed,a button sewn back on,possibly taken in at the shoulders, and cups added in. I bought shapeware (strapless bra and waist cincher) but I'm not sure I'm going to wear it. I just took these tonight, ignore my daughter's bedroom and our bathroom. My fiance was in the other room and ha has not seen my dress.Starting to freak out. 1

    I think since you need a couple extra things you should go with your plan to at least see what other reputable seamstresses in your area think for a timeline, better to have it done early than not have enough time!

    My wedding is April 18 and I have my first fitting February 8th! I would call around and get in earlier. You went to pick up your dress like 3 weeks prior.

    I have an appointment Friday for my first fitting and to look everything over. Our wedding is out of town so we are leaving a few days earlier than what our wedding date is.
