Booking an Appointment
We’re delighted you’re considering Fitted Stitches for your alterations. To keep the process smooth and ensure every gown receives the time and craftsmanship it deserves, all appointment requests must begin with our Alterations Inquiry Form, located below.
This is now the only way to request a fitting — we no longer schedule appointments over the phone.
By having all inquiries in one place, we can respond more accurately, stay organized, and build a customized fitting plan based on your gown and event date.
Once your form is submitted, you’ll receive our investment guide, your proposal, and the next steps to officially reserve your fitting.
Alteration Timelines
To provide the highest level of care and a beautifully finished fit, we follow these general timelines:
- Bridal Gowns: Typically 8–10 weeks from the first fitting to the final try-on.
- Formalwear: Generally 3–4 weeks, depending on the alteration needs.
- Custom Bridal Gowns: 12-14 weeks minimum for alterations, depending on design complexity and material availability.
All gowns are timed to be completed — including a final try-on — within two weeks of your wedding or event.
Rush options may be available depending on season and availability for an additional fee.
If you’re unsure about when to begin the alterations process, you’re always welcome to email or call us first for personalized timing recommendations.
Appointment Availability
We receive many inquiries each week, and responses are sent between fittings and sewing hours.
Please allow up to 3 business days for a reply. We want to ensure every client receives thoughtful, attentive communication.
Appointments are scheduled first come, first served based on seamstress availability.
If your wedding is 7+ months away, feel free to reach out via email for guidance on ideal timing before submitting the inquiry form.
If you would like a consultation to discuss custom alterations, design changes, or an estimate before booking, simply complete the inquiry form and write “Consultation Request” in the alterations section. There is a $50 Consultation charge for the appointment that will be applied to your alterations cost should you decide to book with us.
