In order to ensure you’re not rushed with your decision-making, we recommend that you begin dress shopping 8-12 months before the big day.

This is the ideal, not the absolute. While some designers work well with tight timelines, it's best for you to order early! This also provides enough time to perform alterations on your gown.

Our hand-crafted gowns typically take 4-8 months to arrive. Rush orders are available but not every designer offers them, keep in mind that fees will apply. We recommend starting alterations 2-3 months before your wedding date. Again, this is ideal, not the absolute.

Our made-to-order gowns range from $2,500 - $12,000 with the majority of our gowns being in the $3,000 - $6,500 range. Please look at our Designers page to gain more information. We strive to be transparent and want to honor your budget, so if you don't see the price range you're looking for, please don't hesitate to call or email us.

We carry a wide range of sample sizes, from size 8 to 20, with a majority between 8-14. We believe every bride deserves a beautiful and comfortable try-on experience, and our team is skilled at clipping and adjusting gowns to help you envision the perfect fit. If you have questions about specific styles or sizing, we’re always happy to chat before your appointment!

At Bloom, every bride who walks through our door is important and deserves our undivided attention. This is why we ask each bride to have her own private appointment, which typically take 60-90 minutes. 

We want to spend enough time getting to know you, understanding your style, and helping you create your vision for the most important day of your life. Our small team will go above and beyond to ensure an experience that will be remembered forever. 

We ask that you limit your guests to no more than 4. We believe that your fitting should be as intimate as possible. We want the focus to stay on you and what style and feeling YOU want to exude on your wedding day.

We’ve found that sometimes too many opinions end up overwhelming the bride’s decision, and we don’t wish stressful shopping upon any of our brides. A great way to incorporate additional friends and family is to invite them to your pick-up appointment when your gown arrives!

We ask that you cancel your appointment 48 hours in advance in avoid paying a cancellation fee of $50.

Made-to-order gowns, Sample Sale gowns, jewelry and accessories are all final sale.
