Bridal Policy Update
๐ฃ Bridal Fitting Appointment Policy Update ๐ฃ
Due to a significant increase in demand for bridal alterations, and the growing number of missed appointments without notice, we are introducing a £25 booking fee for all bridal fitting appointments.
This fee will be deducted from your final alteration cost should you choose to go ahead with our services.
As a small independent business, our time and resources are limited. Each missed appointment without cancellation means someone else—often a bride urgently needing help—is unable to be seen. These no-shows directly impact other clients and our ability to run an efficient service.
๐ Please note:
- The booking fee must be paid at the time of booking to secure your appointment.
- Appointments can be rescheduled with at least 48 hours’ notice.
- Failure to attend without notice will result in the booking fee being non-refundable.
We deeply value every client who chooses us and are committed to providing the highest standard of service. These changes are being made to ensure fairness and availability for all.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Kind regards,
