I am often asked "when should I order my gown?" or "how long does it take for a wedding gown to come in?"
Here are a few guidelines:
Most wedding gowns will arrive at the store 3-4 months after ordering the gown. You should leave 2 months for ordering accessories and having fittings. Therefore, we suggest ordering a custom gown no later than 5-6 months before your wedding.
If you are ordering a gown with custom changes, or from a couture line (such as our Lila Couture gowns), you should plan on at least six months for the gown to arrive. Using the above timetable, you should order your gown 8-12 months before your wedding.
Sometimes gowns will arrive early, but most are "right on time"! Of course, most gown designers have a "rush program", but this will cost you a significant fee, such as $100-$200.
We also have a nice selection of sample gowns which are available for sale right "off-the-rack" at all times!
September's Bride...a fresh approach to formal.
