event in your life.

We’ve purposefully curated our gown selection to be a little non-traditional, so please check out our Instagram account (@thedresstheory) and website to ensure our collection reflects your style. We know wedding planning gets busy so we want to make sure our aesthetic is what you’ve imagined for your wedding dress.

We’re sure you’ll love our designers as much as we do! We’ve hand picked styles from each of our designers, so we don’t carry every gown in their collection. If there is a specific gown you are wanting to try on, email us to find out if we carry that dress in store. Have no fear, if we don’t have that style, we can always try to loan it in for you with advance notice.

01.

You should limit your entourage, trust us on this one.

Enlist one or two of your closest pals or family members to help you start your search. Your stylist will also be there for you too! A smaller group will help you find the gown of your dreams and avoid pressure by others' opinions. We ask that you limit your entourage to no more than five guests due to limited space in our salon. We understand some things are easier said than done though. If you end up with a bigger group, please give us a heads up so we can accommodate all your favorite people.

If you are planning your wedding budget before you dress shop, here are a few things to keep in mind. To start, your wedding gown budget doesn't necessarily include just the dress. Accessories and alterations are also something to think about. Alterations are not included in the price of our gowns.

03.

We recommend wearing a nude bra and underwear to your appointment. Our samples are one size only. But don’t worry, once you find your dress, we will be here to take your measurements and guide you through sizing. If you have any other special accessories like a veil, cover up or sentimental jewelry, don’t hesitate to bring those along. We want to help you visualize your complete wedding day look!
