LOVE NOTE

"I had a dress emergency, 9 days before my wedding and Uliana literally saved the day! She was so kind and basically dropped everything to help me find a new dress. She had it altered and ready to go for me to leave for my destination wedding in less than 72 hours! Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

FAQs

What do I need to bring to my fitting appointments?

Please bring your wedding shoes, accessories, undergarments & shapewear to every fitting appointment. These items all influence the overall fit of your wedding dress. Be sure to check out our wide selection of bridal shoes, accessories, shapewear and undergarments to create your perfect wedding day look.

How much should I budget for my alterations?

Fittings and alterations are a very personal process. Each bride and gown are individual, and are treated accordingly. On average, we tell our brides to budget somewhere between $600-$800 for alterations but depending on customizations brides may need to allocate more or less.

How many fittings will I need?

On average, we typically schedule 2 to 3 fitting appointments and a final pickup appointment for most of our brides. If we are making major changes to the design, more fittings may be required.

I didn’t purchase my dress from Le Rêve Boutique, can I still have my alterations done here?

Yes, if you did not purchase your wedding dress from Le Rêve Boutique please contact us to schedule an alteration appointment. Our talented team of seamstresses would be happy to assist you with all your fitting and alteration needs.
