The Process
How it works
We recommend every bride try on a few dresses at their local boutique to get an idea of silhouette, color and style. This will make it easy to discuss your custom vision during your 1 on 1 consultation.
Before we can start your unique and custom journey, you will need to schedule a 45 minute virtual consultation. The fee for this service is $200 and goes towards the final cost of your dress. During this consultation, we will discuss designing your dream gown and bringing your vision to life!
Based on the consultation, you will receive a design kit in the mail consisting of 3-5 full sketches, color/ fabric swatches and a tape measure for custom sizing to choose from.
Once your design is confirmed, we will send you a quote within 3-5 business days. After, we will process your payment and your journey will begin! You will receive a final photo of your dress to ensure your vision is met. It will take approximately 3-4 months to complete your dress (depending on complexity of the design).
Once you receive your dress, we offer a service for local DMV brides to showcase in front of their family and friends. If you are not local, we suggest hosting a party to showcase. We are happy to address any alterations you may need during this time.
