When to do alterations?

I looked back a few pages and didn't see anything about this so I thought I'd ask.

When I got my dress the consultant said I should come in around the middle of April for first alteration fitting for my August wedding. That seems a little soonish. I know the seamstress will need time to do the actual altering, but so much can change in 3 and a half months.

 Also, I've changed my mind about going through the bridal shop to have them done and plan to go through a private seamstress. Would that make a difference on timing?

  • I don't get my dress until the end of May and my wedding is August 7.  My seamstress told me that was more than enough time for her to do my alterations.
