Frequently Asked Wedding Questions

1. When should I order my dress?

Give yourself as much time as possible when ordering your dress; we both can and have worked to extremely tight timescales, but this can impact on your peace of mind in the run-up to your big day.

2. I want to diet before the wedding - what should I do about ordering my dress?

We understand you want to look your best for your big day; in this case we would suggest ordering your gown in a comfortable size, usually the size you are on the day of ordering. Should you then loose more inches than expected the dress can be taken in, but should you not do as well as you would have liked, the dress will still be a fantastic fit.

3. I have bridesmaids of different ages, what is available for them?

A selection of our styles are available in adult, teen and child variations; or if you prefer, our Flower girl dresses can be colour co-ordinated with the adult styles. We recommend that your bridesmaids accompany you when you come dress hunting, this helps you to visualize more easily the finished effect.

4. I want to have the colour of my bridesmaids dresses included throughout the wedding, is that possible?
