Established in Melbourne in 2010, Elle and Stuart specialized in wedding dress alterations, working with countless brides and bridal stores over the years.
In 2024, we relocated to Port Douglas, Queensland, where the rainforest meets the reef—a dream destination for brides. We are thrilled to offer our wedding dress alteration services to brides in this region, alongside our exclusive Wedding Day Concierge service.
While in Melbourne, many brides requested my assistance on their wedding day to ensure they were dressed, pressed, and feeling confident. I’m excited to now offer this service for Port Douglas, Cairns, and Palm Cove weddings.

FAQ
Yes, in many cases lace wedding dresses can be shortened. It can be more difficult to lengthen a dress but there are options.
Its a good idea to have 4 to 6 weeks lead time when altering a wedding dress . In saying that though we sometimes see dresses that arrive in store late for many different reasons and we are more than happy to help with last minute alterations.
We always beleve a bra or other under garments can achieve a superior fit and there are many options these days which should satify your needs like adhesive cups and tapes.
It is difficult to cost an alteration without seeing it on someone, in saying that most brides spend between $200 to $400 on alterations.
Depending on the style of the dress some are more straight forward to alter and are then more cost effective. If you are concerned about losing or gaining weight steer clear of dresses with zips and maybe choose a corset style as they are much more accomodating.
