HOW DO I PLACE MY ORDER?
Prices will be given at initial appointment. If you wish to go ahead we take 50% non-refundable deposit to secure your order. The remaining 50% is then due before collection of your gown (wedding month). An invoice will be sent to you by email for your deposit amount with payment details on there for BACS transfer. Card payments are accepted in the studio.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS ?
We take measurements from all our brides at initial appointment and your dress is made to order based on these measurements and we allow room for small ease. If you are pregnant or wanting to postpone initial measurements until a later date please let your bridal stylist know this at the time.
For made to measure brides your first fitting will be approx 4 months before your wedding. Your dress will be made to a first fit stage which means fastenings and hems / finishings may not be done, we ask for all brides to ensure they bring their shoes and underwear they plan to wear on the day to this fitting and all other fittings. If further alterations are needed a second fitting will be scheduled between now and your wedding date. Final fittings and collections are then scheduled for 1/2 weeks before your wedding date. For final fit and collections we do this on the same day and we ask brides to get in to the studio to us early morning where the team will make for final fastenings, our in-house seamstresses will then work to complete your dress ready for you to take home later the same day.
For Bespoke Brides your fittings will start approx 4/5 months before your wedding, sometimes sooner depending on complexity of design. Bespoke designs require additional fittings and we ask that you ensure you have heels and underwear with you for all fittings. Your final fitting and collection will be approx 2 weeks before your wedding date.
