    We love hearing from our happy couples

    The ladies are top of the game when it comes to alterations and particularly bridal. The warmth of every single person in the shop makes you feel really relaxed, and the experience is enjoyable. I was blessed to have Asta and Violetta look after my alterations, from my wedding dress to hen dresses & bridesmaids alterations. I would never hesitate to recommend Stitches to anyone. Danielle, Chris and all of the ladies are an amazing team and so passionate about their work & service.
    I highly recommend Stitches, We had a cancellation very close to my daughters wedding by the person due to carry our work for health reasons. Stitches stepped in and altered all six bridesmaid dresses and my daughters wedding dress. Everything was outstanding, the dresses were altered to perfection and returned to me dry cleaned and ready to wear. I will never forget their professional service and quality of work.
    I got married in 30-12-2023 and the ladies in Stitches altered my 4 bridesmaid dresses for me. There was a lot of work required - taking in, letting out, adding material and stitching on bows to the backs of the dresses. Nothing was an issue. They were very professional, efficient and lovly to call into. I really appreciate the brilliant job they did and I would highly recommend them. Thanks again, Derbhla.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Here at Stitches we treat every Bride on a individual basis to ensure their Bridal Vision comes to life. No question is too big or small and a member of our Expert team is on hand to answer any queries you may have from dress dilemmas to bespoke items.

    What do I need to bring for my Bridal appointment?

    We always advise every Bride to bring their wedding shoes and underwear. The underwear makes a massive impact to the fit of the dress and having them with you for your first fitting allows us to hit the ground running and pin you accurately from day one. Also, we require all Brides to have their shoes by their second fitting at the latest in order to accurately measure the length of the dress if shortening is required. If you have any additional parts to your dress it is advised to bring these also- eg. Belt, overskirt etc.

    Of course, we have done amazing work to dresses to help fit a Brides vison. A lot of the time we can add or remove sleeves, change a neckline, change the back etc. During your first fitting discuss with our Seamstress what you would like for your dress and we would always do our best to make it happen for you.

    Yes of course! Our Large spacious dressing rooms allow space for a few members of the Bride Tribe! We offer group bookings for Bridal parties. Some Brides prefer to bring just one member (eg. Maid of Honour or their Mother) to the first few appointments so as not to feel overwhelmed and then bring the group for the final reveal on the last fitting! Other Brides prefer to do it alone. We can cater to whichever you would prefer.

    Yes! We love to see the whole family coming and regularly cater for not only the Happy couple, but also the Mother of the Bride/Groom, Bridesmaids, Groomsmen etc. Please advise us in advance if you will be booking in any other members so that we can reserve a space for them in our busy Bridal Calendar and make sure your whole group is catered for!

    Yes, absolutely, our dedicated Seamstresses are also proficient in tailoring. We advise the Groom and Groomsmen to also bring their shoes and shirts with them for their fittings.
