​
I'm on a weight loss journey when should I order my dress?
The best way to go about it is to let your stylist know, have her measure you and discuss your goals. Depending on the dress you have selected your stylist can advise the best option for you to go with. Remember dresses can always be taken in but only let our 1" or less. Don't wait to love your body to order the dress. Choose the one that makes you feel beautiful right now and tailor it to fit the beautiful confident version of you walking down the aisle. We also recommend that you let your chosen seamstress know about your journey so that they can adjust the timeline for fittings.

Yes, we have a few seamstresses we refer out too. Ask your Stylist for details.
​​
​​​​​​When should I book alterations?
You want to pick your seamstress just after buying your dress. Alterations are typically booked for 2 months before your wedding. Leaving your alterations to when your dress arrives is not encouraged as often you will have a hard time finding someone to help you.

Yes, we do. Our sizing in store goes up to 26 however we can order in up to size 32.
​
How many people should I bring to my appointment?
Less is more. Bring your most supportive, honest and drama free people. To many opinions can cloud your vision
and be stressful. This day is about you, and you want to choose the dress that makes you light up - not what checks someone else's boxes.

Most accessories take 3 months to arrive. So, book your accessory appointment ahead of time. However, we do try to carry a bunch of stock but can't guarantee we will have everything you want in stock.
