Covid-19 in 2021
Green and Blue Studio is back in business as of June 22, 2020.
If your initial fitting was pre-covid: Your gowns are ready for the next step at this time (fitting or pick up, whichever applicable). If you do not have one, please schedule an appointment online or contact us by phone or email as soon as possible.
In accordance with the CDC recommendation, we do not require our fully vaccinated clients to wear a mask in our suite.
When do I need to bring my gown for alterations?
Green and Blue Studio (GBS) needs at least two (2) months for a regular alteration. If your gown has to be finished in less than two months, a 30% rush fee might be applied. For a rush alteration in less than two weeks, GBS will add a 50% rush fee.
What do I need to bring with me to a fitting appointment?
It is important to bring the actual shoes, that you will be wearing with your gown, to all your appointments. If you are certain of the heel height and have other shoes that are the same, it is fine to use them for the fitting instead.
If you have selected your undergarments already, bring them as well. If not, we can advise you on the best option for you. We have a selection of shape wear and undergarments for sale in our studio.
Can I bring someone with me to my appointment?
Due to the limited size of our studio, we recommend bringing one extra person only. The alteration process is also often complicated, requiring concentration, and we want to be able to give full attention to you and your gown.
How does the alteration process work?
The initial consultation/fitting is generally at least two months before the wedding and takes on average 30-40 minutes. At this appointment, all the necessary adjustments are decided and pinned. At this point the deposit (first half) is due. The second fitting/pick-up is about 2-3 weeks before the wedding. If the gown fits at this appointment, you will take it with you, and the remainder of the balance is due. Sometimes, small adjustments may be still needed during this appointment. Depending on the extent of the alteration, we will correct them while you wait, or within a couple of days.
