We do our best to accommodate as many brides as possible! We offer sample sizes in 10-30! The majority of our samples are 12-24.

When its time to order we take bust, waist and hip measurements, then show you the designers size guide so you can pick the size that works best for you!

Bridal gowns often take 8-10 months to arrive once ordered, therefore we recommend shopping 10-12 months prior to your wedding date, sooner if you are planning to do bridal portraits before the wedding day.

Your stylist may take just the bride to help her pull if that is the best way for you to find the one!
