Over the next few months, the bride-to-be will be overwhelmed with wedding tasks.  To aide you through the chaos, we are providing you with a breakdown of how the gown ordering process unfolds.

New Order

Upon choosing the gown of your dreams, you will be asked to provide your name (wedding party name if not a bride) and phone number.  We also ask that you provide a back up number to ensure we are able to reach you.  You will also be asked to provide your "wear date" so we can make sure that your gown is in on time.

Sizing

To ensure that your dress arrives in the correct size we will measure your bust, waist, and hips.  As each designer provides their own sizing chart, and no two sizes are ever the same, it is important to consult the designer specific chart when deciding on the gown size.  It is important to remember that not everybody's body has the same shape so some minor alterations may still be required when your dress arrives to make sure it fits your body perfectly.

Pick up & Alterations

Once your gown has been picked up, it's time for alterations.  Please make sure that you have any and all undergarments and your shoes in your possession when you make your appointment.  Here are the seamstress that we use for our gowns.
