To Sleeve or not to Sleeve…

It’s important to remember that shopping for your wedding dress is unlike any other shopping experience. We’re trained to shop for fit but when it comes to your wedding dress that is simply not the case. Instead, look for the details you love! A good seamstress will nip and tuck until your sleeve is the perfect fit. So go ahead, get the dress you’ve always envisioned without the worry that you’ll be fussing and pulling all night long.
