WHAT DO BRIDAL ALTERATIONS ACTUALLY COST?

Every dress, every bride and every alteration is different. The prices below are a guide to the typical overall investment with Alexander Sharpe Bridal.

CLASSIC BRIDAL ALTERATIONS
Guide Price | £450–£650

For dresses requiring classic alterations such as shortening the length, adjusting straps, bust shaping and padding, taking in for the perfect fit, adding a bustle and other finishing alterations.

DETAILED ALTERATIONS & TRANSFORMATIONS
Guide Price | £650–£1,000+

For gowns requiring more extensive alterations, significant reshaping or several changes.

This may include sculpting the bodice, reshaping through the waist and hips, corset-back conversions, neckline changes, skirt alterations and other bespoke transformations.

BESPOKE SLEEVES & DETAILS
Guide Price | £150–£1,000+

From delicate straps and Bardot sleeves to individually designed full-length illusion lace sleeves, every bespoke addition is created specifically for you and your dress.

Full-length illusion sleeves are one of our most specialist alterations. They can involve creating a bespoke pattern, achieving the perfect fit and movement, carefully positioning illusion tulle and individually hand-placing and appliquéing lace so the finished sleeves look as though they were always part of the original dress.

This intricate work can take many hours to complete, particularly with heavily detailed lace and beading, and is priced according to the complexity, materials and craftsmanship involved.

Bespoke design. Specialist construction. Finished as though it was always part of your dress.

A LITTLE NOTE ABOUT OUR PRICES

These are typical overall spend guides, not packages.

Every alteration is individually priced according to the work your dress requires.

If your dress only needs the length shortening, you'll only be charged for that. If it requires extensive reshaping or bespoke design work, we'll explain the options and costs at your first alterations fitting.
