On the day of your appointment, choose
your companions carefully - it's best to bring just one
or two people whose opinions you really trust. If you
bring more people, you'll find that all their different
views will be confusing.
You should ideally order your gown six to nine months
before your wedding. Once you know what you're going to
wear, it's easier to build the rest
of your wedding plans around it.
We need an absolute minimum of four to five months notice
for most gowns, but the earlier you order a made-to-measure
dress, the more flexibility you have. If you're planning
to lose weight before the wedding, it's still a good idea
to order early, as you'll have more choice in deciding
when to have your measurements taken.
We like to make sure that we have your gown in the
store at least two months before your wedding, so we
have time to ensure that it fits you perfectly and make
any last-minute adjustments.
Don't worry if your wedding is less than four to five
months away - just come and see us as soon as possible.
We are still able to organise some gowns at short notice,
but your choice may be more limited.
When you come to try on dresses, it's worth giving your
underwear a bit of thought - if you have a strapless
bra or bustier, wear it on the day of your appointment
or bring it along, and control-top tights can give a
smoother line under fitted dresses. We provide shoes
for you to try on with the gowns.
Try not to have too many fixed ideas about what you
want, and be prepared to change your mind! Many brides
end up with something completely different from their
original ideas.
Our consultants are very experienced and will be able
to suggest gowns that will make the most of your figure.
