How do I know which appointment is right for me?
Fantastic question! Read our appointment descriptions to decide which experience feels right for you, for whatever part of the planning process you find yourself in!
~
May we bring champagne?
To avoid spills and maintain the integrity of the product, we do not allow outside food or beverages of any kind in our store.
Champagne and snacks are provided to VIP appointments ONLY.
However, we are happy to provide bottled water upon request!

Are kids allowed in the store?
We love little ones, but it is our company policy that we do not allow children below the age of 10 in our stores. 
We have several heavy mirrors, racks, and other heavy decor items placed throughout our shop; we want to avoid any pinched fingers! Because we are a small space with few walls in between our suites, noise travels throughout our shop and can be heard in other appointments. We want to ensure we are providing you, your group, and all of our in-store customers with the very best experience. We want to avoid all possible distractions and give you our 100% focus to help you find the perfect gown and celebrate this experience with you and your guests.
We appreciate your understanding!

The number of gowns per designer will vary. Feel free to contact us if you are looking for a specific gown!

What condition are the gowns in?
Some gowns may look brand new while some gowns will show signs of wear and tear, but can easily be repaired in the alterations process and/or cleaned. We will provide a list of reccomended seamstresses and work closely with a fantastic cleaning company for your gown!

How often do you get new gowns?
We will be receiving gowns from our boutiques at least every other month. We do our best to make sure we always have at least 250 gowns in stock to choose from.
