Wedding Dress and Bridesmaid Alterations?

Our in-store expert alterations is our specialty, "No more bridal tug!"™  We provide alterations on all wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, flowergirl dresses and party dresses purchased in our store at the "in-store" discount rate. Typically this rate is half of  "out of store" prices and what most other bridal stores charge. We do this as an incentive to our loyal "in-store" customers. We also provide alterations for gowns and dresses that you bring in to us, but we charge the typical street rate based on the amount of work that needs to be done. Please note that "internet-only" purchased dresses from us, if brought in, are charged at the full alteration rate. Please ask one of our assocaites when visiting our store for the price of alterations. All alterations must be paid at the time of the fist fitting.

Alterations include adjustment to the hem, fit of the gown, the bustle, strap attachements and adjustments. We charge a flat rate for alterations. Additional work such as creating jackets, bolleros, wraps, shrugs, addition beading, lace, flowers and pickups are charges at an hourly rate plus materials. Estimates will be given and paid for before work is done.

It is recommended that alterations are done 4 to 7 weeks prior to the event date. Please call 954-522-1678 for alterations scheduling. Please also come prepared with undergarments, slips and shoes.

Warning: Many bridal stores will try to order you a gown too many sizes too large to charge you more for alterations for the extra work. Also many stores hide the alteration fees until after your purchase or force them in the contract. Victoria's Bridal Couture will always give you the cost for alterations and the option not to have them done if you choose to go somewhere else. Remember to ask first, wherever you shop.
