wedding dress alterations

Your wedding dress is one of the most important garments you’ll ever wear. But even the most beautiful gown may need some expert tailoring to truly feel like your dress. At AB Wedding Dress Alterations, we specialise in providing meticulous, high-quality wedding dress alterations that ensure your gown fits flawlessly and flatters you from every angle.

From small tweaks to major transformations, our expert seamstresses are here to support brides at every stage of their journey—from the moment the dress arrives to the final fitting before the big day.

Why Wedding Dress Alterations Matter

No two brides are the same, and no off-the-rack gown can perfectly fit every body shape. Whether you’ve ordered your dress online, bought it from a bridal boutique, or are wearing a treasured heirloom, alterations are often essential to:

  • Achieve the perfect fit

  • Adjust the length or train

  • Add support or structure

  • Personalise details like straps, sleeves, or necklines

  • Modernise vintage or second-hand gowns

With decades of experience, we tailor each gown to highlight your unique silhouette while preserving the design, detail, and integrity of the dress.


What Can Be Altered?

At AB Wedding Dress Alterations, we offer a full range of professional bridal alterations, including:

  • Taking in or letting out the bodice

  • Shortening or reshaping the hem/train

  • Adding or removing straps and sleeves

  • Reshaping necklines and backs

  • Adjusting bust support, cups, or boning

  • Adding buttons, lace, or bespoke embellishments

  • Modernising vintage dresses for contemporary wear

No matter the fabric or complexity, we work with care and precision—whether it’s silk, tulle, lace, satin, or beading.
