 Congratulations on Getting Engaged!!
Here are a few tips and suggestions to help you in choosing the perfect wedding gown!!
Our appointment times generally are 45 minutes up to an hour. Due to Limited Space, Please do not bring more than three friends/relatives to your appointment. We want our Brides to be as comfortable as possible!!!!!!
 1. When you have carefully made your decision on a dress, your sales person will take your measurements and consult the designers sizing chart to determine your size. Don't be surprised if your size is larger than expected. The sizing convention used in bridal gowns is quite different from retail clothing sizes. To be certain, ask your sales person to see the sizing chart to verify your size. It's always easier to "take in" a larger dress than to "let it out" on a tight dress
2. It's a great idea to try on several veils with your dress. This will help you envision what veil and accessories will look great with your new dress. Remember that accessories should always be purchased after you have decided on a dress
3. Make an appointment two weeks in advance with the bridal boutique that you would like to visit. Some bridal boutiques may take walk-ins, but most bridal boutiques will request that you make an appointment before coming in.
4. Be prepared to discuss your price budget with your sales person. This will allow her to bring you dresses that are in your price range.
5. Because dresses can be heavy and even delicate/fragile, the sales person will likely dress and undress you.
6. Do not bring a camera to take pictures of yourself in different dresses. Even if your intentions are honest, bridal boutiques need to guard against customers who are trying on dresses with the intention of having the dress copied by a dress maker.
7. Trunk shows are the best place to find a discount on a dress. Most bridal shops do not bargain with their customers, not do they expect you to bargain with them. The price that you see is what you should expect to pay. With that being said, discounts can be had at trunk shows for a specific designer.
