Frequently Asked Questions
How can I schedule an appointment?It’s easy! Visit our “Scheduling” tab, and choose the date and time that works best for you. Looking for a quote or just have a question about the process? Write us an email at info@luvercreations.com and we’ll get back to you straightaway!
What should I bring to my appointment?For your first appointment, we request that you bring your gown and any other accessories (like veils, boleros, belts) that you need to have altered. For all appointments, please bring the shoes and any undergarments you plan to wear. If you plan to wear shapewear, a bra, or religious undergarments on your special day, please make sure to bring the item with you to all of your fittings!
What do your different services cost?At Luver Creations, we provide three main services: bridal and evening alterations; vintage alterations and redesign; and custom design creation. Bridal and evening alterations typically range between $350 and $1350, while vintage alterations and redesign usually cost between $850 and $1500. The cost of creating a custom piece varies significantly depending on the design, but we can create a custom wedding gown for $2500-$5500.
Each of these ranges is just an estimate! We have had the opportunity to provide bridal alterations for as little as $150 for very basic tailoring, and fit beautiful vintage pieces for as little as $240. We’re happy to provide quotes based on photos of your gown before you come to the studio! Just write to us at info@luvercreations.com and be sure to include photos!
How far in advance should I have my items altered?We recommend bringing your items in for alterations two to four months before your special day. We are able to accommodate rush alterations in as little as two weeks, but charge additional fees to accommodate the urgency of your alterations. If you’re not sure when to begin scheduling alterations fittings, we’re happy to help! Simply reach out to us over email and we’ll provide some guidance.
