Fittings & Alterations
Each fitting consultation is unique and tailored to the bride’s specific needs, providing a personalised service. Therefore, the prices listed below are a guide depending on the complexity of the work. For example, the cost of adjusting a hem will vary depending on the number of layers involved and the amount of lace to unpick and reapply etc.
At J&J Designs, we employ incredibly talented seamstress and are directly employed by us
. For the convenience of our brides, if you purchase a wedding dress with us your fittings will be conducted in our boutiques. Usually this involves two consultations: one for measurements and pinning, and another to ensure your dress is fitting beautifully.
​
Consultations take place during the week Monday to Friday and your appointment will last for 30 minutes.
​
Please note that weekend appointments for fittings are not possible, please consider this when scheduling your diary.
