Frequently Asked Questions

---

Every wedding gown is unique, and so is every bride. Because each dress has different construction, fabrics, layers, embellishments, and alteration needs, I am unable to provide an exact price before seeing your gown in person.

During your first fitting, I will:

• Evaluate the construction of your dress
• Discuss the fit you’re hoping to achieve
• Pin all necessary alterations
• Answer any questions you have
• Provide a personalized quote before any work begins

You’ll always know the cost before alterations are started—there are never any surprise charges.

While exact pricing varies, here are some common starting prices for frequently requested alterations:

• Hem: Starting at $145
• Bustle: Starting at $80
• Strap adjustments: Starting at $80
• Taking in the bodice: Starting at $130

Final pricing depends on the gown’s design, fabric, layers, lace, beading, and the complexity of the alterations.

Please bring:

• Your wedding gown
• The shoes you plan to wear
• Any shapewear or undergarments you’ll wear on your wedding day
• Any accessories that may affect the fit (if applicable)

Appointments are available Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

To provide each bride with dedicated, one-on-one attention, all fittings are by appointment only.

Need an appointment outside of regular business hours? After-hours appointments may be available for an additional $30 after-hours fitting fee.

All fittings take place in my private home studio by appointment only.

My home studio provides a quiet, comfortable, and personalized setting where you will receive one-on-one attention throughout your alterations. This allows me to focus entirely on you and your gown, ensuring the highest level of care and craftsmanship.

Miss Fits Bridal Alterations is located in Williamsburg, and the full address will be provided when your appointment is confirmed.
