We recommend making arrangements for a final steaming/pressing on the big day, as your dress will become wrinkled once it’s placed in a garment bag for transportation. Many hotels and venues have steamers available for your use, so it is a good idea to check with them first before purchasing your own. If you want us to steam and prepare your Dress for a Big Day an extra charge will be applied (Range is $150-250).
To receive a free quote for your alterations, please email photos (front and back) and/or a link to your dress, along with your wedding date and a list of anticipated alterations (such as shorten straps, take in sides, take in waist, hem, etc.) to ido@andsomethingblue.com
Up to 2-3 appointments are included, as this is typically sufficient for our seamstress to achieve the final result. If the Bride requires additional appointments or further alterations beyond this, an additional charge will apply. Fee for an additional appointment is $150.
You can drop the Dress at our store and get cleaned and preserved back to your home for a fee of $400 (including shipment).
