Frequently asked questions...

How long is my appointment?

How many people can attend the appointment?

2 lovely hours. We don’t like to feel rushed helping our brides find the dress of their dreams and absolutely don’t like to rush our brides.

Five including the bride is a comfortable number in our quaint boutique. Please only bring people over the age of 12 and your positive supporters.

What time should I arrive at my appointment?

What is the price range of your gowns?

We ask that you arrive on time for your appointment- please don't come more than 15 minutes before your appointment time! We usually have appointments before and immediately following your appointment so if you arrive early or late, we may not have any one to help you. If you do arrive a few minutes early, simply wait in our car or visit our Hallmark like little town shops until your appointment time.

1500 to $5000, Sometimes we have discontinued styles for less. But this is a rare occasion.

How should I prepare for my appointment?

Should I bring my wedding shoes?

Answer the questionnaire and communicate with us as we reach out. Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions. Please do not come with heavy perfumes or other scents. Of course, deodorant is an exception. Please no lotions, oils, fresh fake tanners or makeup on your body. This helps maintain the integrity and condition of the gowns. Undies are a must! Bring a strapless bra or pasties if you have them.

No, we prefer you not wear heels during the appointment. This keeps our dresses safe. We have also found that most brides wait until they purchase their dress to get their shoes anyway! The gown often dictates the shoe!!

What is bridal sizing?

Do you carry plus size?

Your bridal size will more than likely be two sizes larger than your current regular/street size. If you wear a size 10 in regular clothing, for example, you will be a bridal size 14.

Yes, we do. We try to accommodate as many beautiful brides as possible. Since our samples will not be an exact fit for most body types and/or sizes, we use clips, pins and fabrics to help you envision your perfect size.

Will I need alterations?

When should I order my gown?

If nothing else, you will likely want a bustle. For this reason alone, we like to say all gowns need at least a small amount of alterations. We will discuss more about our size ordering process during your appointment. With that said, we do not do in-house alterations but we do have a list of amazing seamstresses and fashion designers for you to choose from.

Gowns take a minimum of 20 weeks (5 months) to arrive in general. Some do take a little longer and some a little less. We can, at times, offer rush orders but there are additional fees for that so we do try to avoid it. We also suggest at least 2 months for potential alterations simply because you never know how many clients the seamstress may have before you. With all things considered we suggest a minimum of 7 months to one year ahead of your wedding date. However, if you find yourself in a crunch, we are happy to see what we can work out for you.

Do you rent wedding dresses?

Can I buy a dress of the rack?

No, we are sorry but we do not at this time.

Sometimes this is possible. It is all relative to the gown and the wedding date. We try to help our brides in anyway we can and sometimes that does mean a gown off the rack.

Can you ship my gown?

What Happens after Purchase?

Yes, we can. You will have to sign a waiver and pay the shipping cost, however, Shipping can range anywhere from $40 and up depending on the weight of your personal gown. It is not our preferred method, however.

The dress goes into production; sewing and hand beading etc. Once production is completed the gown is inspected, boxed and shipping to the boutique. At that point, we also inspect the gown and contact you to set up a pickup appointment. You will come to your appointment, try on the dress and take her home! These appointments are about 15 minutes long.

Do you have parking

Can we bring food & beverage?

Yes, we sure do!

No, we ask that you not bring outside food or drink. We do offer upgraded appointments. You can find more information about those when you schedule your appointment by clicking here !
