Q: Are appointments required?

Appointments are required to ensure we can give you our full attention in a comfortable, relaxed space. Appointments will be for an hour and a half, where you can try on wedding dresses with an expert stylist who can assist with the styles which best suit you and your wedding. You can make an appointment online or give us a call – we will do all we can to give you the time and date you want.

Q: Is there a charge for appointments?

No. Appointments are completely free! A credit card is required to book though, as we have a Cancellation/No-Show Policy. A $25 charge will be applied to your credit card if your appointment is cancelled within 24 hours of your time or do not show up (no-show).

Q: How many people should come to the appointment with me?

Due to the intimate nature of our space, we can comfortably accommodate up to five guests. It is hard to hear your own voice when focused on pleasing too many opinions, so if you can limit your visitors to only the key people, your shopping experience will be so much better!

Q: What should I bring with me?

Nude, strapless, and laser-cut- Your three best friends! Nude undergarments, strapless bras, and laser cut panties will ensure you see the gowns in all their glory. Shapewear is also recommended for some of our more fitted gowns. Also, bring a pair of shoes that you think will be a similar height to what you will wear on your wedding day. This will help tie the whole look together!

Q:  WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

Bridal Parlour is across the river in a short, easy 15-minute drive from downtown St. Louis.  

Q: When should I purchase my gown?

Wedding dresses can take between 5-6 months to arrive and an average of 6-8 weeks for alterations. We do not suggest shopping for your gown earlier than 16 months prior to your wedding as new styles may be released or visions of your wedding might change. Therefore, you want to order your wedding gown between 10-12 months before your wedding. If you have less time, we do have designers who offer a rush delivery for a fee. A deposit of 50% is required upon ordering with the remainder due when the gown arrives.

Q: What size are your sample gowns?

The majority of our wedding dresses range between size 8-14. We do have a handful of gowns in 4/6 and 16-22. We have a number of tips and tricks to show you how the gown will fit in your selected size.

Q: What is the price range of the gowns?

Our bridal gowns range from $1800-$7000 with the bulk of gowns ranging between $2500-$3500.

Q: Do you offer alterations?

We aid in selecting the size of your gown with you which is closest to your measurements according to that particular designer’s sizing chart. Since these are not custom measurements, almost all gowns will need some form of adjustment. We do not offer in-house alterations but can recommend some excellent seamstresses. We are not affiliated with any of these tailors.

Q: Do you offer refunds or exchanges on purchases?

All purchases are final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged. We will aim to ensure you are satisfied and love everything before you leave the boutique because we want happy brides!
