for already married brides who lost a lot of weight after ordering the dress...

I have been holding off ordering my dress because I have been dieting...How much can they really alter a dress down in size?? I really don't want to order a size smaller!!

How was your experience?

TIA

I am in the same boat. I actually ordered my dress too small! I think they can alter a dress 2 sizes....about 40 pounds for me....

my mil was altering my dress the night before the wedding b/c i had lost even more weight. i think it is usually a given that brides lose weight before the wedding. i only lost about 10 pounds from the time i ordered the dress to the alterations to the wedding (4months) and it was still a big difference in how the dress fit.

WHEN I ORDERED MY DRESS (AND I ORDERDED IT 1 SIZE SMALLER) THEY TOLD ME ITS 1 DRESS SIZE FOR EVERY 20 LBS. THAT GIVES YOU AND INCH LESS MATERIAL ON EITHER SIDE.
