The Importance of Wedding Dress Alterations and Why You Should Rent Early


Wedding dress alterations are essential, even for rented gowns!

When it comes to your wedding day, every detail matters, especially your wedding dress. A perfect fit can make all the difference in how you look and feel as you walk down the aisle. Here at Bridal Closet, we understand the significance of this, and that’s why we emphasize the need for alterations, even for rental gowns!


Why Wedding Dresses Need Alterations

Wedding dresses are typically created in standard sizes and often need adjustments to fit different body types. Here are some common reasons why wedding dresses need alterations:

  1. Perfect Fit: Every bride's body is unique, and standard sizes can't cater to all body shapes and sizes. Alterations ensure that the dress fits you perfectly, accentuating your best features.

  2. Comfort: A well-fitted dress is more comfortable to wear, allowing you to move, dance, and enjoy your day without worrying about any wardrobe malfunctions.

  3. Non-Stretch Fabric: Most wedding gowns are made out of high-end materials that often don't have any stretch to them. Most wedding gowns won't mold and conform to your body like the cotton/spandex materials you are used to wearing everyday. Alterations can help you achieve the tailored look that formal-wear is known for!

Why You Should Rent Your Dress Several Months in Advance

Timing is crucial when it comes to wedding dress rentals and alterations. Here’s why you should consider renting your gown several months in advance:

  1. Alteration Time: Alterations can take time, especially because often times multiple adjustments are needed. Renting your dress early allows ample time for fittings and alterations, ensuring a perfect fit.

  2. Stress-Free Planning: Planning a wedding can be stressful. Securing your dress early and allowing time for alterations can take a significant load off your shoulders, letting you focus on other important details of your big day.

  3. Availability: Popular styles and sizes can get booked quickly. Renting early ensures you have a wide selection of gowns to choose from and can reserve your dream dress in advance.

Our alteration services are designed to give you that tailored fit, ensuring you feel confident and beautiful on your special day. Don’t make the mistake of assuming you won't need alterations and wait until the last minute—book your appointment and secure your rental gown well in advance to enjoy a stress-free and memorable wedding experience!
