The simple answer is…NOW!
When you start planning your wedding, there are a million different things to think about! And of course, one of the most important (at least in our opinion) is finding the most perfect dress! So many brides ask us, “When should I start shopping for my dress?” Our vote it, the sooner the better!
We work with some of the best designers in the industry. We want to make sure that when you find your perfect wedding dress with us, that dress is filled with nothing but love from the very first cut of fabric! Most of our gowns are made to order, just for you, which means it can take anywhere from 4-6 months for your dress to be created. Each stitch is carefully checked, each bead and lace applique attached by hand, by some of the greatest crews in the entire wedding industry. Then, your dress is carefully packaged, and shipped to our store! From there, we prep it for your first look, and get it all ready for your first alterations appointment! Basic alterations done at our shop take anywhere from 8-10 weeks, and custom alterations can take up to 16 weeks!
For those of you keeping track, that’s 4-6 month for creation, and up to another 4 months to make your dress completely perfect for you on your wedding day. That means that in order to ensure you have ample time for your dress to come in, your dress should be ordered about a year before you say “I do”.
Don’t have a year before you tie the knot? DON’T WORRY! We can still help you find your perfect wedding gown!
We Believe that no timeline is too short! We have over 500 dresses in our collection, and several of those can be taken directly from our in stock collection. We also have developed such incredible relationships with our designers, that there is often an option to rush order a dress, or grab a dress that they currently have already in production! Our stylists will do everything they can to help you find your absolute dream dress.
