The Process
What to Bring
Setting an Appointment
Setting an Appointment
It is best to have the dress, shoes, and undergarments (shapewear, underskirts, etc.) picked out before your first fitting. This will speed up the process and let's us see exactly what adjustments need to be made, and should be brought to every fitting.

Setting an Appointment
We recommend getting started on your dress at least 8 weeks before your wedding. Shorter timeframes can be accommodated based on availability. Call anytime we are open to set up an appointment - 208.853.1184.
**Due to a high volume of bookings, we would recommend setting up an appointment and starting your dress 10 - 12 weeks out from your wedding date.
Fittings
Setting an Appointment
Stress Free!
Most dresses take 2 - 3 fittings before they are ready for pickup; design changes or complicated alterations may require more fittings. There are typically at least 10 to 20 days in between fittings.

Last Fitting
Stress Free!
Last Fitting
The final fitting is typically scheduled in the last month before your wedding and / or desired pickup day. This is just a final try on to make sure everything fits perfectly before we close up your dress, and finish up any extra details, lace, or beading.
Pickup
Stress Free!
Last Fitting
We schedule pickup days based on each brides preferences, although we do recommend the dress is picked up at least a week before the wedding. If we are steaming the dress, then pickup is typically scheduled the week of the wedding, to ensure any wrinkles don't have time to set in.

Services we specialize in:
Embellishments - lace, beading, appliques, etc. We are able to remove and reattach any of these to work on seams that need to be adjusted underneath; the original design is kept so that any alterations are not noticeable.
Design changes - we are able to build up necklines, add sleeves or corsets, and make many other design changes that you might have in mind.
Bustles - big or small, we bustle them all! There are 3 - 5 common types of bustles, and we will show you which ones work best with your dress at your first fitting.
Pressing / Steaming - we can steam not only your dress, but anyone in your bridal party that has a dress that needs it. Ask for current rates when you are in for a fitting.
