Fun Facts before your Luxe Bridal Appointment
We want you to know what to expect before you come shopping with us! If you have any questions or concerns, they will likely be answered on this page. If you still have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us! We can't wait to meet you!
How should I prepare for my bridal appointment?
Gather Inspiration: Start by collecting pictures of gowns that catch your eye. Your stylist will reach out to you the day before your appointment to understand the look you’re aiming for. Whether you have multiple styles in mind or just one, we'll select a few dresses in different silhouettes and fabrics for you to try on. This will help you quickly determine your preferred style, and from there, we can narrow down the options to find your perfect dress.
Set a Budget: Decide on a comfortable price range for your gown. If someone else is gifting you the dress, make sure you know their budget as well. This way, we can avoid any awkward conversations about price during your appointment and focus on finding the perfect gown. At The Bridal Corner, dresses range from $1,000 to $2,000, with most falling between $1,400 and $1,800.
Choose Your Entourage Wisely: Bring along the people who matter most and have your best interests at heart. While we don’t set a strict limit on how many guests you can bring, our seating accommodates about five people. Any additional guests may need to stand. Be mindful of the size of your party to ensure it doesn’t disrupt other brides. We also request that children under six stay home on Saturdays.
Should I wear anything special?
Undergarments: Bridal gowns typically have excellent inner construction and may not require a bra. However, if you prefer, feel free to bring a neutral strapless bra. Some brides opt for shapewear, though it's not necessary. The goal is to wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and confident.
Makeup: If you usually wear makeup and feel more confident with it, go ahead and wear it. If you prefer a more natural look, that's perfectly fine too. We want you to feel beautiful when you find your dress.
Do brides really say "yes" at the
first appointment?
Absolutely! Many brides find their perfect dress during their first appointment. We have a wide range of styles to suit any taste, and our skilled stylists are dedicated to helping you find the perfect gown. Come in with an open mind and trust our expertise—you might be surprised at how easy the process can be!
How Will I Know It's "The One"?: It might sound cliché, but you’ll know it’s the one when you put it on and feel instant love. There won’t be anything you dislike about it, and you’ll be able to envision yourself walking down the aisle and taking photos at your venue in that dress. Not all brides cry, but you’ll have a strong feeling of not wanting to take it off. If you feel the happiest and most confident when you look in the mirror surrounded by your loved ones, it’s time to say “yes.” While it’s okay to want to “sleep on it,” remember that if you’re truly excited, it’s the perfect time to say yes!
What Should I Expect When Purchasing My Dress?
Payment Options: Brides can choose to pay in full or make a 75% deposit. The remaining balance is due within 60 days of the dress arriving at our store, or within 90 days if purchased directly from our collection. We accept cash, checks, and major credit cards.
Tipping: Some brides choose to leave a tip for their stylist. While this is completely optional and never expected, tips are greatly appreciated by our lovely stylists.
