Custom Made Bridal Gown

Process from Start to Finish

Creating a custom made bridal gown is a process that involves many steps, from the initial consultation to the final fitting. The process of creating a custom wedding dress typically starts with an initial consultation with a designer, during which you'll discuss your vision, style and budget.

Next, the designer will create a sketch of your dress, and then a muslin prototype. This process allows you to see the dress in person before the final product is made, and make any necessary changes. After the muslin fitting, your designer will make the final dress, and you'll have a final fitting to make sure everything is perfect.

Throughout the process, it's important to have open communication with your designer and to be flexible in case any changes need to be made. It's also important to make sure to allow enough time for the dress to be made and to factor in any necessary alterations or fittings.

Additionally, it's important to keep in mind that creating a custom wedding dress can take several months, so it's important to start the process well in advance of your wedding day.

When working with a designer be sure to bring any inspiration or pictures of dresses you like, as well as any heirloom or sentimental elements you would like to incorporate into the dress. This will help the designer understand your vision and create a dress that is truly unique and special to you.

Finally, it's important to keep in mind that creating a custom wedding dress can be a significant investment, so it's important to budget accordingly. With the right designer and proper planning, you can create a dress that is both beautiful and affordable.

Overall, creating a custom wedding dress is a process that requires patience, open communication, flexibility, and a willingness to invest time and money. With the right approach, you can create a dress that is truly one-of-a-kind, that fits your personality and makes you feel beautiful on your special day.
