Bridal FAQs

Appointments

Yes. We are an appointment-only boutique, so we can give every bride a personalized, one-on-one experience with an expert stylist.

Our bridal appointments typically last 90 minutes, giving you plenty of time to explore styles and find your dream gown.

Absolutely! We recommend bringing your closest loved ones whose opinions matter most. A smaller group often creates a more relaxed and enjoyable experience.

We adore little ones! However, because our boutique is a calm, intimate environment filled with delicate gowns, we recommend arranging childcare whenever possible so you can fully enjoy your appointment.

Shopping Experience

We proudly carry a curated collection of couture designers, including Galia Lahav, Monique Lhuillier, Ines Di Santo, Nicole + Felicia, Arava Polak, Beccar, Antonio Gual, Angel Rivera, and Sen Studio.

Our collection ranges from approximately $2,500 to $20,000+, with most of our gowns falling between $4,000 and $8,000.

Most of our sample gowns range from bridal sizes 8–12, with additional options available in both smaller and larger sizes.

Yes! Bridal sizing differs from everyday clothing, and our experienced stylists are experts at clipping and fitting samples so you can envision how your gown will look when ordered in your size.

Ordering

Most special-order gowns take approximately 6–10 months to arrive, depending on the designer. We recommend shopping 10–12 months before your wedding whenever possible.

Don’t worry! We offer rush options, in-stock gowns, and off-the-rack samples for brides with shorter timelines. Let us know your wedding date, and we’ll guide you toward the best options.

Many of our designers offer customization options such as changing necklines, sleeves, trains, fabrics, or adding special details. Availability depends on the designer and timeline.

Alterations

Yes! We work with highly experienced bridal seamstresses who specialize in couture wedding gowns.

Alterations are separate from the cost of your dress, as every bride’s alterations are unique.

Trunk Shows

A trunk show is a limited-time event where we receive a designer’s newest collection—often before it’s available anywhere else. It’s a wonderful opportunity to try on gowns that aren’t normally in the boutique.

Some trunk shows include special pricing or exclusive promotions. Details vary by designer and event.

Payments

Yes. A deposit is required when your gown is ordered, with the remaining balance due before your dress arrives.

We offer financing options to help make your dream dress more attainable. Ask your stylist for details during your appointment.

Miscellaneous

Yes! We encourage photos so you can look back on your favorites after your appointment.

Nude undergarments and a strapless bra (if you prefer one) are helpful, but not required. Most importantly, come ready to have fun!

Ideally, begin shopping 10–12 months before your wedding. This allows plenty of time for ordering and alterations without feeling rushed.

We’ll celebrate with you, take photos, finalize your measurements, place your order, and keep you updated every step of the way until your gown arrives.
