FAQ

We know bridal dress shopping can be a stressful process. So we want to make it easy to find your dream dress with some answers to those frequently asked questions. These are strictly recommendations based on our professional experience. We love to get feedback on how we can better service your needs. Please feel free to contact us through our chat option. 

First Time Brides

We typically recommend starting to shop 8 to 9 months before the big day. Bridal gowns can take up to 6 months to order and 2 months to alter. So look for some inspiration, and plan ahead to make for stress-free dress shopping.

You found the dress,

now you need alterations

Our alterations are done in-house by our team of seamstresses. You will need to have the shoes you plan on wearing for your big day beforehand. The seamstress will see you about 2 to 3 times to perfect the fit of your dress. The last step is to pick up the dress and get married!

Bridesmaids and 

Mother other Bride

Bridesmaids and Mother's gowns can take 3 to 4 months to order and 1 month to alter. With large bridal parties out of state, we can coordinate with them to be sure your bridal party looks their very best for the big day. We carry Mori Lee bridesmaids and Jade by Jasmine Bridal for Mother's. Please be advised, that we do not have every style in-house but can order just about any style from the two designers listed.

The parties over, 

what do you do with

the dress?

We offer dress cleaning and preservation after the big day. The process takes about 6 months and your gown is like new. Be sure to ask your consultant how you can save those precious memories.
