At Bravo Bridals, we understand that capturing the moments and trying on wedding gowns is a special and memorable experience. We are delighted to inform you that picture taking is not only permitted but also encouraged in our salon! Feel free to bring your camera or smartphone to document your journey as you try on different gowns. Taking pictures can be incredibly helpful in remembering the details of each dress and comparing them later. It also allows you to share the experience with your loved ones and gather their opinions. We want to ensure that your bridal gown shopping experience at Bravo Bridals is enjoyable, memorable, and tailored to your needs. We look forward to helping you find your dream wedding dress and capturing those beautiful moments along the way!
5) How far in advance do I need to buy my gown?
At Bravo Bridals, we recommend that brides purchase their bridal gown approximately 6 to 9 months before their wedding date. This timeframe allows for a comfortable and stress-free shopping experience, ensuring that you have enough time for fittings, alterations, and any necessary customizations. Ordering your gown with sufficient lead time allows for the production and delivery process, as well as any potential delays or adjustments that may arise. It also ensures that you have a wide range of options to choose from, including different styles, sizes, and customization options. However, we understand that every bride's timeline is unique, and there may be situations where a gown is needed in a shorter timeframe. In such cases, we offer rush order options for select collections. Our consultants will work closely with you to determine if a rush order is possible and guide you through the process. Additionally, if you are looking for an immediate same-day purchase option, most of our sample gowns available for sale with an additional discount! These gowns are "off-the-rack" and can be purchased on the spot, allowing you to take your dream gown home immediately! Whether you choose to order your gown in advance or opt for a sample gown, our team will provide the necessary assistance and guidance to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience. We look forward to assisting you at Bravo Bridals and helping you find your dream wedding dress!
