Ever wondered how detachable sleeves are made?
This lace bardot sample is being created so brides can see and feel the style before committing- because proportion, lace placement and shoulder fit matter more than most people realise.

2026 brides- don’t forget to book alterations once your dress is ordered. (And if you haven't bought it yet, now is the time!!)

What to Expect at Your First Bridal Fitting:

When you come to your fitting at The Teatime Sewing Co., you’ll step into a calm, cosy space just for you.

Your first fitting is simple and relaxed. Here’s what we’ll do:

💕 We’ll begin by getting your dress on properly so we can see how it naturally sits.
💕 Check the overall fit and chat about what you’d like to feel more comfortable or confident in.
💕 Pin any areas that need adjusting.
💕 Talk through the plan so you know exactly what happens next.
💕 Go through a clear quote for the work- and unless you choose extra changes later, that price won’t change.

My aim is to make the whole process easy, reassuring, and enjoyable from the moment you arrive.
