Byblos hosts a lot of weddings — we fit for most of them
Between the old port venues and the villages around Jbeil, wedding season keeps this bench busy. A wedding fitting gets treated differently from a regular alteration: more time per appointment, a clear schedule working backward from the date, and the most experienced hand in the shop on the final stitches.
- Wedding gown alterations — hem, bodice, straps, bustle
- Groom’s suit alterations — taken in, tapered and hemmed to fit
- Evening gown and cocktail dress fitting for the wedding party
- Coordinated scheduling so the household tracks one timeline
- Final pressing and a same-day check before the event if needed
- Honest guidance on what an heirloom or borrowed gown can handle — see restoration

Call or WhatsApp us directly rather than relying on the general timeline — we’ll tell you honestly what’s realistic in the time available.
