Congrats! You’ve found your dream wedding dress, but that doesn’t mean the process is over just yet—you’ve got to get that gorgeous gown fitted perfectly to you and your shape. Whether your wedding dress needs just a simple hemming, a bustle added, or a whole restructuring, we’ve got the expert tips for wedding dress alterations that you need to know. Not sure what these tips entail or what exactly your wedding dress fitting timeline should be? Don’t fret! We’re answering all your burning questions with our own tips for wedding dress alterations, plus the wedding dress fitting etiquette you need to know.
1. Yes, your gown needs to be fitted
Wedding dresses aren’t typically made-to-measure, so very rarely does a bride’s size match a designer’s size perfectly. After you select your dream wedding dress, the bridal salon compares your measurements to the designer’s size chart and orders the closest size of gown. Once it arrives, the dress must then be tailored precisely to fit your shape and form.
2. Schedule not just one, but three dress fittings
Bridal salons usually recommend that brides have three wedding dress fittings. Schedule your first fitting to take place two to three months before your wedding day, the second fitting about a month before your wedding, and your final fitting at the two-week mark. Typically, your gown goes home with you at the final fitting—hooray!
3. Bring the right bridal accessories
For your first fitting, bring the shoes and undergarments you plan to wear on your wedding day, as these can greatly impact the fit of your gown. Donning a pair of sky-high Badgley Mischka stilettos will require your wedding dress to be a different length than if you opted for a pair of sparkly Kate Spade bridal sneakers. Another pro tip for wedding dress alterations? To ensure your dress is tailored to the exact fit you want while walking down the aisle, wear any and all shapewear or undergarments you plan to sport on the big day itself.
4. Don’t freak out if your dress doesn’t fit right away
During your first fitting you get to try on your actual wedding dress for the first time (woo hoo!). But be prepared—it probably won’t fit. Be direct with your seamstress about how you envision your dress looking and feeling, and if there are any significant changes you want to make, such as adding illusion lace sleeves or altering the neckline. Also, don’t be afraid to ask your seamstress questions. One of our major tips for wedding dress alterations is to be open and honest about what you want in your bridal look.
5. Speak up if it still doesn’t fit right at the second fitting
Your seamstress will do everything in her power to make sure your dress fits, so speak up if something doesn’t feel right. Being vocal will help you avoid having to book more fittings, which will ultimately allow you to stick to that wedding dress fitting timeline.
6. Be selective when choosing your entourage
7. It’s proper wedding dress fitting etiquette to bring only one or two close friends or family members to get a second opinion. But just like dress shopping, don’t bring too many people—all those opinions will stress you out and make the tailor’s job that much more difficult. At the last fitting, bring your mom or maid of honor to get a tutorial in bustling your gown—they’ll need to handle this important task on your wedding day.

Kristen and Tyler were married August 26, 2017. She is absolutely stunning in her low-back sheath beaded lace gown. We love how Lucy Munoz Photography captured her beauty and their day.
Kristen, in marketing as a Social Media Influencer, Tyler, now a Personal Trainer and Physical Therapy Aid, chose to keep their ceremony and reception close to home. Their source of inspiration came from their hometown church in Patterson, CA.
Their reception was held at The Century in downtown Modesto, just around the corner from Mira Bridal Couture.

We are thrilled to see one of our brides featured in the most recent issue of Bridal Couture Magazine. Jessica and Thomas were married last June.
A cathedral in the forest created by Redwoods, and a glowing canopy of strung lights, allowed the couple to create a romantic backdrop for their closest friends and family to celebrate.
“Thomas and I agreed from the beginning that this was our day,” explains Jessica. “We didn’t want high expectations to interrupt our joy and excitement surrounding our wedding.”
Jessica wore our Elise gown in ivory. Exquisitely crafted with all-over Cybele lace, this stunning wedding dress offers glamour and romance in equal measure. A deep neckline with illusion tulle showcases your curves. Narrow, beaded straps give you all the glamour of a strapless gown with the effortless, all-night wearabilty of straps. Delicate lace falls over tulle and stretch poly-charmeuse for a show-stopping effect. In the back, we love the way the silhouette curves before flowing out into an elegant chapel train. To the bride who loves fine-point lace, we think we’ve found your match. Available beaded or unbeaded. Sizes 00-32.
Congratulations Jessica and Thomas.
