The Process

INITIAL CONSULTATION

You will have a personal hour-long consultation with Juliette initially to discover more about your special day and talk through style, fabric and colour choices. A $250 fee applies to this consultation, which is redeemable against your dress should you decide to proceed. From this consultation Juliette will create a hand drawn sketch of your dress to be signed off by you and from which the toile will be made. At this point you should feel confident to decide if Juliette Hogan Bridal is the perfect choice for your wedding dress.

FIRST FITTING

We will have made a toile (calico) version of your dress in your standard size and we will fit the dress to you. Allow 45 minutes.

SECOND FITTING

At this point, we will have made your beautiful dress in your chosen fabric. The dress will be unhemmed, and shoes will need to be brought along at this point. Allow 30 minutes..

FINAL FITTING

All alterations and hemming will have been completed. You will have a final try on with shoes to ensure everything is perfect. Allow 30 minutes.

ADDITIONAL FITTINGS

Extra fittings outside the above will incur an additional charge.
