Hiiii 👋

As I've been a little quiet on here while I've been on maternity leave I thought now I am starting to prepare for wedding season 2025 it was a perfect time to say hi and share a little bit about me to my new and existing followers.

I am Laura, I'm a wife, Mama to two boys (3 if you include the fur baby) and owner of Laura's Alterations. I have a degree in Contour fashion, and I have worked in many jobs in the fashion industry, from lingerie to socks to rugby kits! But alongside this I been doing bridal and occasionwear alterations for nearly 14 years now 😲. And I made this my full time job 3 years ago after having my first son, and I absolutely love it. Even in the middle of weddings season 💓

Based in Apperley Bridge, I offer all kinds of clothing alterations and repairs, but I specialise in bridal and occasionwear. I still have availability for 2025 brides, bridesmaids, and other occasionwear as well as my 2026 diary now being open for bookings!

To book you can contact me via DM or on 07523766326

☆ Jemma ☆

Stunning photos of a stunning bride from last May. Jemma dress was a perfect fit, all she needed was her hen shortening and a bustle adding.

Unless your dress is made to the majority of brides will need their wedding dress altering to give the perfect fit. Even if it is simply just a hem shortening.
I have availability for 2025 and 2026 brides, to book contact me via DM or on 07523766326

Alterations: shorten lace hem and bustle.

◇ Wedding tie ◇

Something a little bit different from my usual wedding dresses. This lovely bride Chelsea contacted me last year as she was looking for someone to make her wedding ties. As she had not been able to find any ties that matched the colour of her bridesmaid dresses, she decided to buy some extra dresses and I used these to make her groom and his groomsmen their ties.

As her bridesmaid dresses were made from a chiffon fabric, we opted for a pretied cravat style as this worked best with these fabrics. If you're looking for some bespoke ties, I also make standard and bow ties too. For further details or to book you can contact me via DM or on 07523766326

Can we just take a moment for this bow 😍.

In 2025, we saw so many beautiful bow details. This bride wanted some extra detail adding to hers, with the addition of these stunning pearl beads.

As well as hand sewing the beading detail, I also made the long tails of the bow detachable. Making it easier for her to dance and giving her a different look for the evening.

☆ Charlotte ☆

This wonderful bride first came to me back in 2023 when I altered a dress for a blessing ceremony she had.
Then I was so pleased to hear from her again last year when she wanted to book in for her wedding dress alterations as well as her bridesmaids and her mother's alterations.

As well as some minor tweaks to the fit of Charlotte's dress, I also added some bespoke embellishment to her dress. Including adding some stunning pearl beads to the beautiful bow on the back of her dress.

I have availability for 2025 brides with wedding dates between May and December. To book please contact via DM or on 07523766326

Alterations: shorten straps, let out hips, shorten hem, bead straps and bustle
Bow: bespoke pearl beading and make bow "tails" detachable
