What is the price range of your dresses?Â
We offer a large and diverse collection of designer dresses that won't break the budget. Our off-the-rack selection features dresses under $3,000 and that is a steal for some for our higher-end designers! All of our dresses are available to ship right away. This is the perfect option for those with a shorter timeframe or looking for a deal. Email us to book a virtual appointment an a stylist will help you find the perfect dress within your designated budget.
If I purchase an off-the-rack wedding dress and don't order a custom dress won't alterations be a lot more?
No, we can help you find a dress that fits and will not need extensive alterations. Even custom made-to-measure gowns require alterations for a perfect fit since the dress is made on a form and not on your actual body.
​
We offer a wide variety of shapes and sizes and we are happy to talk you through the measurement and alterations processes so you know what to expect.
What are sample wedding dresses?
Sample wedding dresses are gowns that have been tried on in a bridal boutique but never worn down the aisle. We make sure our gowns are in excellent condition and come from top designers. Buying a sample gown lets you get a designer wedding dress at a discount without waiting months for a custom order.
​
Why should I buy a sample wedding gown?
Sample gowns offer the perfect mix of quality, affordability, and instant availability! You can enjoy 40–70% off retail prices, and receive your dress right away—no production wait times.
​
Are your designer wedding dresses authentic?
Yes. All our gowns are sourced directly from trusted bridal boutiques and top bridal designers. Every gown is inspected for authenticity and quality before it’s listed for sale.
​
Do you sell off-the-rack wedding dresses?
Absolutely! All our gowns are off-the-rack and ready to ship immediately. Once you place your order, we carefully package your dress and ship it within 3 business days.
​
What sizes do you carry?
Our inventory changes often, and sizes vary because each gown is one-of-a-kind. We stock a range of popular bridal sizes and recommend reviewing the designer size guide listed with each dress before purchasing. One of our dedicated stylists is happy to walk you through the measurements if you want to schedule a virtual appointment. If you see your size in a style you love, act quickly—it may not be available again.
​
How much can I save on a designer wedding dress?
Brides typically save hundreds to thousands of dollars by buying sample gowns. Many of our dresses are marked down 40–70% from their original retail price.
​
Can I return a sample wedding dress?
We want you to shop with confidence. We offer a 5-day return period if the dress is returned in the same condition you received it. See our full return policy for details.
​
Do you offer payment plans for wedding dresses?
Yes! We know weddings can be expensive, so we offer flexible payment options through Afteroay and Affirm to make your dream dress even more affordable.
​
How should I store my dress until the wedding?
Store your gown in a breathable garment bag, in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic covers, which can trap moisture. A light steam before your big day will make it look flawless.
