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.
I don`t like parts of my dress, can you help?
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.
Can I bring people to my appointment?
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.
Can my Bridal party or Mother of the Bride book in for Alterations?
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!
Do you tailor suits for the Groom, Groomsmen and Pageboys
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.
