  1. Appointment Time

Our bridal appointments last about 90 minutes. If you’d like more time, give us a call—we’re usually able to arrange longer weekday sessions.

 

  1. Personal Bridal Stylist

When you arrive, you’ll check in at the front desk and meet your personal bridal stylist. Your stylist is a fashion expert who will help you create a cohesive and stylish wedding look. They’ll take the time to understand your style, wedding details, and vision—not just for your gown but also for accessories that complete your bridal ensemble.

 

  1. Spacious Fitting Rooms

Your stylist will guide you to a private, spacious fitting room with seating for at least four guests. We love welcoming larger groups too—just let us know in advance so we can make sure everyone is comfortably accommodated.

 

  1. Bring Who Matters

Bring your “I Do Crew” to your first appointment! Most of our brides find their dress on their very first visit. Bring the most important people you want to be present the moment when you find your wedding dress. If someone special can’t join you in person, you can easily include them with a video call. Many of our brides let loved ones know their appointment time and ask them to be available on FaceTime, Skype, or Facebook chat. That way, your friends and family can share the joy of seeing you try on wedding dresses for the first time.

 

  1. Bring Inspiration Photos

Before your appointment, browse our Wedding Dress Designers pages to explore collections and price ranges. Save 4–6 favorites—or bring your Pinterest board—so your stylist can get an idea of your personal style and narrow down our search. Our store has over a thousand gowns to choose from. This preparation makes your appointment more efficient, reduces stress from having too many options, and helps us pick your perfect dress.

 

  1. Finding Your Dress

When you arrive, your stylist will ask about your wedding dress style and use your inspiration photos to pull gowns that match. We usually start with five gowns to get a sense of your preferences, then pull additional options based on your feedback until you find the one that makes you feel truly extraordinary. Remember, the point of the day is to find THE DRESS, not to spend all day driving all over town, trying on too many dresses, overwhelming yourself with too many options, and wearing out your party. They are there for that moment when you say, “Yes to the dress!” It’s okay if you say yes at your first appointment. Use the rest of the day to celebrate and spend quality time with your friends and family.

 

  1. Your Comfort Comes First

Your stylist will be in the fitting room with you, assisting as you try on gowns. Please wear comfortable undergarments that match your modesty level—underwear is required. Shapewear can also help you feel confident. Since most gowns have built-in cups, a bra isn’t always necessary, but if you prefer one, we suggest a nude, strapless option. We also keep samples of BOOMBA shapewear in our fitting rooms to help create the tailored look of when the gown is fitted to you.

 

  1. Saying “Yes” on Day One

Don’t be surprised if you find your dress during your first appointment—many of our brides do! Our stylists listen closely to your needs to help you discover the gown that feels right for you. We’ve been voted Best Wedding Dresses in North Texas for our selection and service, so be prepared to say yes when you find the one that makes your heart sing.

If you’d like a pre-appointment consultation in person (rather than by phone), we can schedule this on a weekday. Don’t pressure yourself with thoughts like “I must buy today” or “I must sleep on it.” Both create unnecessary stress. Instead, come with an open mind and let us guide you to the perfect dress. Remember—we’re stylists, not salespeople. We’re here to support you, not push a product.

 

  1. Stress-Free Shopping

Wedding dress shopping should be fun and memorable, not stressful. Our goal is to take the pressure off so you can relax and enjoy the experience. Come prepared to laugh, have fun, and let us do the work. If you have questions or concerns at any point, just let us know—we’re here for you.
