Designer-led. Bride trusted. Boutique recommended.
Alexander Sharpe Bridal was founded by Charlotte Alexander-Sharpe with one simple belief: your wedding dress should feel every bit as incredible on you as you imagined it would.
With over 25 years in the Fashion Industry, a degree in Fashion Design and a Master’s in Fashion Atelier, Charlotte brings her designer’s eye to every dress.
It’s never simply about making a dress smaller or shorter. It’s about understanding your shape, your dress and how you want to feel in it.
Working alongside her small specialist team, Charlotte oversees each alteration journey, from precision fitting and sculpting to bespoke sleeves, redesign and complete transformations.

From the first consultation to the last fitting, the experience was seamless and stress-free. The attention to detail was exceptional, and the team was supportive and friendly. On my wedding day, I felt confident and comfortable, and my dress fit perfectly.
I can’t thank them enough for the incredible job on my dress. I was nervous about the alterations, but they put me at ease immediately. They were patient, gave expert advice, and the result was a gown that fit like a dream. I felt beautiful walking down the aisle.
I had my wedding dress altered here and couldn’t be happier. From the first fitting, they made me feel comfortable and reassured. The process was smooth, professional, and they listened to exactly what I wanted. By the end, my dress fit perfectly — I felt amazing on the day.
The service was fantastic. My dress needed several changes, and they took the time to understand my vision. Every detail was handled with care, and I felt fully involved. After the final fitting, my gown was exactly what I had hoped for — truly unique and perfect.
You’ve tried on countless dresses and finally found the one.
But sample dresses are never made for your exact shape. In the boutique, they’re clipped and pinned into place, carefully shaped to give you that perfect vision of how the dress could look.
Fast forward six to nine months – your dress arrives, you try it on… and it doesn’t feel the same.
The bust may feel loose, the hips may sit differently, the skirt may fall in a way you weren’t expecting. That “magic” you saw in the sample can feel like it’s disappeared.
This is completely normal.
Every body is unique, and measurements alone can’t capture the subtle differences in shape, posture and proportion. Standard sizing is only ever a starting point – not the finished result.
This is where we come in.
At Alexander Sharpe Bridal, your dress is not simply altered – it is carefully refined through a designer-led approach to fit. Every adjustment is considered, every line reshaped, every detail balanced to enhance your silhouette.
We recreate that original vision – and often elevate it beyond what you first imagined.
Because the magic was never in the sample.
It’s in how your dress is fitted to you.

We will guide your bridal party through every detail too, so you leave our studio feeling confident, prepared and wedding-day ready.

You’ve tried on countless dresses and finally found the one. Sample dresses, by nature, are never made for your exact shape, they can be too small or too big. To give you that perfect look in the boutique, the bridal consultant often clips or pins the back, shaping it to your figure so you can see how stunning you’ll look on your wedding day.
Fast forward six to nine months: your brand-new dress arrives at the shop, and you try it on… and it doesn’t quite feel the same. The bust might feel loose, the hips may stick out, or the skirt may hang differently. That “magic” you saw in the sample? It can feel lost—but don’t worry, this is completely normal.
Every body is unique, and measurements alone can’t account for all the curves and nuances that make you you. When boutiques take your measurements, they’re using standard sizing as a guide, which means your dress may not fit perfectly right away.
This is exactly where we step in. At Alexander Sharpe Bridal, every fitting and adjustment is designed to perfect the fit, sculpt your shape, and bring back that wow-factor you first fell in love with sometimes even better than you imagined. We celebrate every curve, every angle, and every detail, making sure your dress feels effortless, flawless, and completely you.

We’ll review everything, advise you on the work required and recommend the right fitting timeframe. Once approved, you’ll receive your private booking link to choose from the suitable appointments available..
Usually around eight weeks before your wedding, this is a focused fitting where we assess your dress, discuss exactly what you want and precisely pin every alteration.
Bring your dress, bridal shoes and wedding-day underwear, and attend alone or with one guest. This is a technical fitting rather than a bridal try-on—the dress rehearsal comes later.
Weight maintenance is essential from this point. Your dress is then left safely with us.
This is where we work our magic. Your dress is expertly altered in our studio, with every adjustment carefully completed to sculpt your shape while respecting the original design.
Your completed dress is refitted and every alteration carefully checked. Bring your veil, jewellery and up to two key people - we will show them how to dress you and manage every detail while you practise walking, sitting, holding your bouquet and using your bustle.
Your dress will normally be ready to take home. If a small refinement is needed, we’ll arrange an extra fitting.
