🤍 MEET SAM

Our Fittings & Alterations Supervisor

In her own words:
“I am obsessed with making sure every detail on your dress is perfect for the day.”

⬅️ Swipe for some invaluable advice (and the cutest mini-Sam pic!)

With her background in production, Sam loves working with brides who feel confident exploring creative alterations and customisations to create a look that’s truly unique and individual to them.

But the most special moment for Sam, whatever the extent of the alterations, is that final fitting. Seeing a bride try on her dress, transformed just for her, and have that “this is my perfect dress, I am getting married in” moment is what makes it all so rewarding.

Being part of that journey and helping every bride feel amazing in her dress is what it’s all about.

If you’re a TWS bride who’s already said “I do”, we’d love for you to leave Sam a Google review and share a little love for the magic she helped create. 🤍

01 — Mina | Crepe
02 — Caro | Silk rose
03 — Winona | Tulle A-line
