When is it time to find your dream wedding dress?

Planning a wedding is such an exciting journey, and one of the most memorable steps is finding your dream wedding dress! But there can be a lot of confusion about when to begin this magical journey. Timing is everything, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way. 


The thing is, wedding gowns (for the most part) are custom creations that take time to perfect. On average, it takes 6-9 months for a gown to arrive once it’s ordered. Add an additional 2-3 months for alterations, and you’re looking at a timeline of up to a year from your first bridal appointment to your final fitting. 

 

 

 

This means that ideally, you’ll want to start shopping at least 12 months before your wedding day. This gives you ample time to explore all of your options, make your decision, and leave room for adjustments without feeling rushed. 

 

The process of designing, producing, and shipping a wedding dress is a labor of love. Each gown is crafted with meticulous detail, often by hand, to ensure it’s as special as your big day. Plus, alterations ensure your dress fits perfectly - whether it’s a minor hemline adjustment or a complete customization to match your vision.

 

 

 

The great thing about finding your dream wedding dress with us is that we do everything in-house, meaning you can get your alterations done through us without worrying about finding a seamstress elsewhere to make any adjustments needed. We can completely customize your gown from start to finish!
