Question

Is it easy to get a wedding dress altered to fit perfectly if it is one or two sizes too big?

Answer 1

yes..

Answer 2

Yes, very easy, maybe a little costly.

I went to a wedding where the bride had ordered the dress from China (e-bay) and had it altered at home.  The actual dress cost less than £100 and i'd be surprised if the alterations cost the same again - both she and the dress looked gorgeous.

Make sure you book a session at a wedding dress shop to try some dresses on - you'd be surprised at what looks nice on you and just what doesn't!!

Good luck on the big day.

Answer 3

Yes normally but it will depend what style it is but my wedding dress ended up 2 dress sizes bigger once I had lost some weight and it was altered fine:)

Answer 4

depends on how the dress is made. But most of the time yes.
