Can lace wedding dresses be altered or hemmed?

Yes! Lace wedding dresses, like every other type of fabric, can be altered and hemmed. Most lace motifs are attached to another fabric like tulle or crepe and can easily be detached and restitched by a professional seamstress. If you’re a petite bride and worried about your lace hemline, ask if you dress can be custom made to a short length.

Yes! All wedding dresses can be bustled. There are many different types of bustles to choose from and a trained seamstress can help you determine the best kind for your train.
