Your Appointment & FAQs

Why do I need an appointment?

It is our goal to provide you with the attention and care that you deserve when shopping for your "dream wedding gown." We recommend a bridal appointment to guarantee that a dedicated bridal consultant is available to assist you, 

If you wish to browse through our beautiful wedding gowns before making an appointment, we invite you to stop by and take a look. We will happily assist you in securing a convenient appointment time.

 

How long do bridal appointments last?
Our bridal appointments typically last 1 to 2 hours. If you need more time to find your "dream wedding gown," we will happily extend your appointment providing we do not have another scheduled bridal appointment.  We will also be happy to schedule a second appointment if you desire additional time to make a decision or try on more gowns. 

 

I have a child I'd like to bring with me to my appointment. Are children allowed?

It is our wish to provide every bride a memorable and cherished experience without distractions while selecting her dream wedding gown. We strongly encourage child care arrangements to be made for children under the age of 5.  If you would like your child to be part of your wedding gown selection process, please call us so that we can attempt to provide special accommodations. 

 

I have an appointment scheduled. How should I prepare for my appointment?

No special prepartions are required for the appointment. We do, however, recommend that you bring a nude strapless or corset bra and wear appropriate undergarments.

What happens if I have to cancel a bridal, bridesmaid, or tuxedo appointment?

We understand that situations may arise and an appointment may need to be cancelled. We ask that you thoughtfully contact us asap to let us know that you are unable to make the appointment. We require a deposit to secure another appointment if you no show an appointment.

Order times vary depening on the designer and the style of the gown. The majority of our designers  take approximately 4 - 6 months for bridal orders to arrive. Rush orders are an option but may incur an additional fee.

 

I've heard that bridal and special occasion gowns run small, is that true?
