Your wedding day is one of the most important moments of your life – and your dress should be nothing short of perfect. At AB Wedding Dress Alterations, we specialise in professional wedding dress alterations and fittings to help brides across the UK achieve a flawless fit, beautiful silhouette, and total confidence on their big day.
Whether you’ve bought your gown from a bridal boutique, inherited a family heirloom, or ordered your dress online, our expert bridal seamstresses are here to help you shape and refine it into the dress of your dreams.
With four London boutiques in Marylebone, Chelsea, Hampstead, and Wimbledon, we are proud to offer convenient access to our expert services for brides across the capital.
Why Are Wedding Dress Alterations Important?
Even if you’ve purchased a made-to-measure gown, chances are it will still need some adjustments to fit your body exactly right. Every bride is unique, and wedding dress designers use standard sizing, which rarely accounts for your personal proportions or preferences.
That’s where our expert wedding dress fitting service comes in. From adjusting the hem and reshaping the bodice to refining straps, sleeves, and bust support, we take the time to understand your vision and bring it to life – stitch by stitch.
What Our Wedding Dress Alteration Services Include:
At AB Wedding Dress Alterations, we offer a full range of bridal tailoring services, including:
Taking in or letting out the bodice or waist
Hem shortening or lengthening
Bust and cup adjustments for a secure, flattering fit
Reshaping necklines or backs
Strap and sleeve alterations
Adding or removing bra cups, boning or support
Bustle creation for evening comfort and dancing
Zip, button or lace-up modifications
Custom restyling for modern or vintage dresses
Beading, lace, and appliqué enhancements or repairs
No matter the style, material, or complexity of your dress, our skilled seamstresses have the experience and care to achieve a seamless result.
Your Wedding Dress Fitting Experience
We recommend starting your fittings 2–3 months before your wedding day, with at least two appointments to allow time for careful alterations. During your first fitting, we’ll ask you to bring your wedding shoes and undergarments to ensure an accurate hem and perfect fit.
Your seamstress will guide you through every detail, offering suggestions and professional advice while making sure your dress remains comfortable and beautifully tailored to your figure.
We also accommodate urgent or last-minute wedding dress alterations, depending on availability, without ever compromising on quality.
