How long does it usually take for all fittings to be completed? I'm trying to plan it so I can take my dress home with me over Thansgiving and not have to worry about it.

Re: fittings timeline
I think the fittings usually start one to three months before the wedding. The place that is doing my fittings says they only need a month but I booked my first fitting at the end of September for my November 8 wedding. I think I only have to go for two fittings.

My salon told me to have my last fitting no earlier than 1 week before the wedding. She said many brides will have a major weight flux during those final stressful days.
The other fittings can be as late as you want but i would space them a month apart.

Thats what I was told also. Brides tend to lose a few pounds right before the wedding. That is the reason they want the last fitting close to the wedding.

Re: fittings timeline
Even though my wedding isn't until end of December, I'm gonna have my fittings completed by Nov, so I can take the dress home with me then and have one less thing to haul home at x-mas. I think that should be ok....the chances of me dropping some pounds is highly unlikely expecially it being x-mas week and drinking all that eggnog! Thanks for the input!

Re: fittings timeline
I am getting married Oct 18th and today is my first fitting. They told me the same thing. I am not worried, the seamstess is at the store. I already dropped a size since I got measured and tried it on.
