Alterations and customisations are individually priced dependant on your wedding gown and requirements. We are transparent about pricing and your Opus consultant will fully discuss with you the costs involved of any work required before commencement.
Gowns requiring customisation may require you to begin fitting appointments earlier than 12 weeks and attend extra appointments so please allow time in your wedding preparations for this.
