Due to the way my stock changes I do not show individual dresses. I get new gowns almost weekly.
Coming Soon: I will have some of our own
models in the dresses I have in stock
Just styles similar to those carried.
You've dreamt about walking down that aisle since
you were a little girl, and now the big day is approaching. Whether
you're choosing a dress off the rack or having one made just for
you, follow these tips and make your dream come true.
 Steps:
1. Start your search six to nine
months ahead. Special orders can take four to six months, plus time
for alterations.
2. Keep your file of photographs of dresses you
like from bridal magazines, advertisements and boutique promotions
handy when you shop.
3. Choose a style appropriate for the ceremony.
For a formal evening wedding, a floor-length dress in ivory, white,
cream or champagne, often worn with gloves and a train, is an elegant
choice. Semiformal dresses can be also be pastels, a floorbrushing
(ballerina) length, with a short veil and no train. At a less-formal
or second wedding, the bride may choose a long or short dress, or
even a two-piece suit. A short veil may be very stylish paired with
a classic pillbox hat.
4. Flatter your figure with a dress that suits
you. Take a trusted, honest sister or friend who has your best interests
at heart for feedback. Try one of each basic shape--princess, ball
gown, sheath and empire waist--to see which flatters you most. Check
that you can walk, turn, sit and bend comfortably, as well as lift
your arms and hug loved ones without splitting a seam. Comfort and
confidence are vital on this day of days.
5. Try on a few designer gowns first so you recognize
the quality, then choose a dress based on your budget.
6. Set a budget. Off-the-rack dresses can be found
for £250 and up. Sometimes less.
 Overall Warnings:
Falling in love with a particular dress or style does not mean that it
will flatter your figure. Ask for honest advice from someone who knows
what they're talking about.
