Each bridal appointment begins with a dedicated 90 minutes. However, there is no strict time limit. If it takes longer to find your perfect dress, we gladly continue our session, ensuring that you are afforded ample time to explore gowns, ask questions, and truly enjoy your experience.

Absolutely. You are more than welcome to attend your appointment on your own. Many brides enjoy the experience of shopping solo, and we will be there to support, guide, and celebrate with you as you find your dress.

We suggest bringing those individuals who are most important to you and would only help in your decision-making process. For a more stress-free session, we find that two to four trusted friends or family is ideal!

If you’d like to bring nude undergarments, a strapless or stick-on bra, great. Otherwise, it is unnecessary to bring anything beyond your lovely self. We will be assisting you in and out of each bridal dress during try-on.

Yes. The boutique carries a range of sample sizes, and many gowns can be clipped to give a beautiful sense of fit. The goal is to help you envision how each gown will look and feel once ordered in your size. Brides of all shapes and sizes are warmly welcomed.

We recommend starting your dress shopping at least 12 months before your wedding date. While every designer is different, the average production and shipping time for a gown is between six to eight months. This will allow you approximately 8-12 weeks for any necessary alterations before your special day. Of course, if you are in a pinch, rush orders can usually be placed on most gowns with additional fees.

Our wedding gowns range from approximately $2,500 to $10,000, with the majority priced between $3,500 to $6,000. Rest assured that we will be mindful of the budget you provide when we schedule your appointment.

While most gowns—including customized designs—require some level of adjustments, alterations are not offered in-house, and our dresses are priced without alteration fees. While you may have your own seamstress of choice, we are happy to provide recommendations for trusted seamstresses in the area. If you live far away, we will help you find viable options that are closer to home.

Yes. After your wedding, your gown may be brought back to the boutique, and we arrange for it to be sent to a trusted preservation company for museum-quality professional cleaning and preservation.

Yes. We offer a thoughtfully curated selection of bridal veils and jewelry to complement our gowns. The collection includes elevated statement pieces created by renowned designers, as well as more understated options, allowing each bride to complete her look in a way that feels personal and intentional.

Since every gown is custom made by a designer, once an order is placed, we will be unable to stop production or issue a refund, credit, or exchange for your gown. We can certainly provide recommendations for various resale or consignment options.

A trunk show is an opportunity for us to host an expanded selection of gowns or accessories from a featured designer for a limited time, typically over one to two weekends. It’s a wonderful opportunity to try on styles not normally available in the boutique. Special incentives may be offered by the designer and apply only during the event dates. Please visit the Events page for upcoming trunk shows and reach out promptly if you’re interested in scheduling a private appointment.

Longwood Gardens, Winterthur, the Delaware Museum of Art, the Brandywine River Museum, the Brandywine Battlefield, and the infamous Buckley’s Tavern are all within a five-mile radius.
