Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a complete catalogue?
No complete catalogues. You can view most of all our styles on the website a complete catalogue would bee too hard to create as there are so many different designers that we keep.
Are the gowns authentic designer bridal gowns?
Yes. All of our bridal gowns are 100% authentic designer bridal gowns as described.
How long does it take? Bridal stores normally require a minimum of 6 to 9 months notice, whether they are buying in or manufacturing the dress themselves. Don't forget to allow time for fittings. Ideally brides should start looking 8 to 12 months before the date of the wedding, particularly if the wedding is during the peak European (June to August) summer months.
What happens if I want to lose weight? Brides are notorious for wanting to lose weight for their weddings. This is understandable and we can make some allowance for this in the fittings, provided the weight loss is not after the dress has already been altered to fit. As most brides will appreciate it is very difficult for bridal stores to hit a moving target. During the peak wedding summer months (June to August) we work to a very tight schedule, due to the number of dresses that have to be finished.
What style of dress will suit me?
Looking through bridal magazines will help, but the quickest way is to go and try dresses on. It is also helpful if the bride is able to get some professional advice on what styles suit her figure, her budget and her venue.
Bridal etiquette: Getting the best from your appointment.
Before proceeding it is worth noting that most reputable bridal boutiques are busy and usually see brides on an appointment only basis. Most bridal boutiques always have a waiting list for appointments and when brides do not bother to turn up or cancel, this effectively deprives other brides of that appointment slot. Saturdays and Thursday evening appointments are generally in high demand, so it pays to book well in advance.
