DO I NEED AN APPOINTMENT TO SHOP?
Short answer – Yes! We work with only one bride at a time, giving her our full attention during her appointment time slot which means we can only operate by appointment. But don’t fret!… we can often accommodate next day or even same-day appointments. You can BOOK YOUR APPOINTMENT HERE.
WHAT IS THE PRICE RANGE OF YOUR GOWNS?
Prices range from $1,500 – $4,200. The majority of gowns fall between $1,800- $2,500. We aim to carry the finest quality bridal gowns without a huge price-tag. We look for the richest materials, softest laces and best overall fit when curating our gowns. We guarantee you will see the value in these beauties! We also have an incredible selection of sample sale gowns for under $1000!
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I START SHOPPING FOR MY GOWN?
We recommend shopping for your bridal gown 8 – 12 months in advance. In most cases your gown will be made to order, and can have a lead time of anywhere between 3 and 8 months. In order to avoid rush fees and overall stress – give yourself plenty of time. In general – shop when you’re ready to buy… there is no point in falling in love with a gown that will be discontinued before you’re ready to commit!
Is time something you don’t have?! Don’t worry… a couple of our designers keep stock, and we are often able to sell you one of our gowns off the rack if necessary.
WHAT SIZE OF WEDDING DRESSES DO YOU CARRY IN STORE?
Because we are a very small store, until we (inevitably) expand, we can only carry samples sizes that are considered to be “average” according to the designer’s sales history. Most of our gowns range is size between 10 and 14, which in street size is approximately 6-12, but we also have a great selection of samples in size 18-26! All of our gowns can be ordered up to size 18, and the majority of them can be ordered up to size 28. Note: Most gowns can be tried on by most brides of all shapes and sizes. We have ways of helping you envision the final product!
HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN I BRING TO MY APPOINTMENT?
At the moment we are encouraging brides to limit their guests to 5 as we have comfortable seating for 5 guests. However, we want to accommodate, so let us know if you have more than 5 guests and we can make it happen although some may have to stand. We reeeeeally encourage you to bring only those people that you know will be supportive and whose opinions you absolutely need in order to make your decision.
HOW LONG WILL MY APPOINTMENT LAST?
We schedule appointments to be 2 hours long. This is plenty of time for you to take your time and enjoy your bridal gown shopping experience! If you go over this time, we are happy to schedule you a second appointment to finalize your decision! Second appointments will be scheduled for 1 hour which allows enough time to re-try your top choices and be measured.
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
Just your most supportive guests and a smile! We recommend trying gowns with no bra (as long as you are comfortable with that). Oh and wear nude coloured panties if possible!
