3 Things You Need to Consider While Wedding Dress Shopping

Between finding a wedding venue, florist, makeup artist, hairstylist, photographer, caterer and everything in between, we know you have a lot on your plate while you are planning your wedding. It is important to understand timelines for each vendor; when to reach out to book them, when to do the trials, when payments are due and how they will fit into your wedding day schedule.

Finding the perfect wedding dress for your special day is no different. So here is everything you need to know about shopping for your wedding dress at Revelle Bridal!

TIMELINE

All of our wedding gowns at Revelle Bridal are made to order, which means that we have one sample of each gown at the boutique for you to try on. Once you have found THE one, we take your measurements and order the right size for you. Once the designer receives the order, their team will get to work to make your wedding gown especially for you. Depending on the designer, most gowns take about 6-10 months to arrive at the shop from the time the order is placed. If you need the gown before the estimated date of arrival, we can put a rush order on the gown for an extra fee.

If you need a wedding gown much sooner, you can purchase an off-the-rack gown at Shop Revelle. You have the opportunity to purchase online or to come into the shop to try on our sample gowns!

BUDGET

At Revelle Bridal, our wedding gowns range from $2200 to $5000. Once you have found your dress at Revelle, we ask for 50% of the payment when you order the gown and the other 50% is due once the dress is ready to be shipped from the designer.

If you are looking for a wedding gown at a lower price point you can purchase a sample gown from Shop Revelle for a discounted price!
