I had my first fitting last month and I am getting married in 6 months. They wanted me to come now because I needed alot of work done and they wanted to be able to take their time with it.

That seems early to me - my wedding is the week before you and when I ordered my dress they said fittings wouldn't start until June.

That seems a little early, I'm only going for my first fitting this Saturday and my wedding is next month. Maybe it needs alot of work?

That is the reason why I went early was because it needed alot of work. Then I am going for my second fitting in July.

Re: Is it normal to have a fitting 5 months before wedding?

that seems really early to me. a lot can happen weight-wise in 5 months.

does your dress need a lot of work?

They may be only heming it now and doing the rest later, It also could be they just want to see how it fits on you and make sure everything is right.
