5 Common Wedding Dress Alterations Brides Should Know

Written By atelier marbl

Every wedding dress is unique, but most gowns need some level of tailoring to achieve a flawless fit. The most common bridal alterations include hemming, adjusting the dress length to match your shoes and movement, and taking in or letting out the bodice for a snug, supportive silhouette. Brides also often need a bustle added, which allows the train to be lifted during the reception without altering the gown’s design.

Other popular adjustments include strap alterations to improve comfort and structure, and reshaping necklines or sleeves for a more personalized style. These changes transform an off-the-rack gown into a couture piece tailored to your body. Working with an experienced bridal alterations specialist ensures every detail is handled precisely, so your dress looks and feels perfect from aisle to dance floor.
