How early should I arrange

a wedding dress fitting?

Well planned is half the battle

Are you engaged and want to start looking for your dream wedding dress soon? Then you're probably wondering: When is the right time for my fitting appointment? In this article, you'll find out why it pays to plan early - and when it's best to book your appointment.

The ideal time for your fitting appointment

For a relaxed wedding dress purchase, we recommend that you arrange your fitting appointment around 10 to 12 months before your wedding date.

Why so early?

  • Many dresses have delivery times of 4 to 6 months
  • Alterations and customizations take an additional 1 to 2 months
  • Early appointments ensure you have the full selection of the current collections
  • Popular consultation slots (e.g. Saturdays) are often booked up early

Tip: If you are getting married between June and October, you should plan even earlier - these months are peak season in the bridal fashion world.

And if you have shorter notice?

Don't worry - last-minute appointments are also possible! At Leaf and Lace we offer subject to availability:

  • Express appointments for spontaneous planning
  • Immediately available dresses from our current collection
  • Support in choosing a suitable off-the-rack dress

Just give us a call or use our contact options - we'll find a solution together.
