Q: How do I know what size to order?
A: In each dress you will see a diagram of how to measure yourself properly. Bridal sizing is generally two sizes smaller than your regular dress size and that is why taking proper measurements is very important.Â
To take your measurements you will need your bust size, natural waist size, and hips. You measure your bust at the fullest part of the breast straight across the back. Waist is taken usually about 1-2 inches above the belly button. Hips are measured around the fullest part of the buttocks and hip. These three measurements will tell you which size to order. Again you are welcome to set up a FREE video chat appointment with one of our bridal consultants to help you make sure you are doing your measurements properly to order the right size dress for you.Â
Q: Can I exchange my dress?
A: We would love to be able to offer an exchange program, however when you order a dress it is made specifically for you and as such can not be exchanged for another dress.Â
Q: Can I return my dress for a refund?
A: Yes! We are happy to receive dresses back to us that you were not happy with. We know that buying a dress online will show you the design of the dress but occasionally when you put it on you just don't feel a connection with the dress. That is totally fine. Contact us right away to let us know you wish to return the dress and you will be sent our return address and instructions.Â
You will be responsible for the cost to return the dress to us, so please keep that in mind when making your decision. Please note dresses returned must be in exact condition as received. No marks, smells, rips, animal hair, deodorant, etc. on the dress or the dress will be sent back to you and a return will not be processed. Please note shipping and handling fees are not refundable.
Q: How long will it take for my dress or accessories to come in?
A: Our dresses take on average 4-5 months to arrive, though we always recommend you start shopping for your dress 8-10 months before your wedding to allow time for alterations. This shipping time is an average estimate and may vary based on time of year and other factors that may make the shipping time longer. Accessories are made by hand and made to order, they take 4-6 weeks to arrive to our boutique to undergo quality assurance and then shipped to you within 48 hours.Â
Q: Will I still need to tailor my dress?
A: Yes! Your dress will be ordered to fit the largest part of your measurement, which means it will need to be taken in at other areas of your body and hemmed as needed. This is very normal and the same way all wedding dresses are made (unless it's a custom to you gown). Any tailor in your area who specializes in wedding gowns will know how best to tailor your dress so it fits perfectly for your wedding day!
