FAQ
When you come in for your appointment you’ll be paired with one of our highly trained consultants who will assist you throughout the entire wedding process. You and your entourage will be taken to a private dressing room where your stylist will get more information on your wedding and gown preferences. The appointment will begin with you and your stylist browsing our selection and picking gowns. As your stylist gets a feel for what you’re liking they’ll pull more gowns for you if needed. At the end of the appointment brides typically try their favorites back on (with accessories if you’d like) and narrow it down to the one! At that point, your stylist will walk you through measurements and paperwork. After that, it’s time to pop some complimentary champagne and take a picture with the “Yes!” sign!
To give yourself plenty of time for the gown to come in and alterations, we recommend shopping a year in advance. Please allot 6-9 months for gown production and 2-3 months for alterations. If your wedding is happening sooner than that, there are many other options such as rushing an order or purchasing a sample…your stylist will know exactly what will work for you. If you are getting married within 6 months we recommend calling for more detailed information.
We do allow walk-ins dependent on stylist availability. Because of limited space, we highly recommend making an appointment so we can assure a stylist and dressing room is available.

On average we recommend planning to begin alterations 3 months before the wedding. Ultimately this depends on your seamstress, their schedule, and the amount of work involved.

All we ask is that you wear underwear on your bottom half! None of our gowns require a bra, however please feel free to bring one with you for modesty, if you prefer.
