Bra Emergency

Hey everyone

I'm getting married in a little over a week and I had gotten my bra at Mary's corsetier they told me I could come back once I had my final dress fitting and they would alter any changes to the bra then. Well I got my last dress fitting and we went back to Mary's and its closed to mid-August after my wedding??! So now I have a bra that sticks out like a inch or two and my mom has been calling places and nobody will alter that bra like Mary's would have. The place I got my dress said they won't do it either but they could put some Velcro in it and hope that my bra won't show hopefully but that sounds pretty risky. I don't want to be running around in my wedding dress with my bra sticking really bad out all day! Any help please! Know any places to get bras altered?

TIA!

Re: Bra Emergency

Buy a new bra that does not need altering. I've never actually heard of altering a bra.

Re: Bra Emergency

I second Blum's in Patchogue-- may not be able to alter it, but they have a huge selection if you want a new one...so very helpful- I was in and out in 30 mins. today.
