FAQ'S
Girl, we know you've got some.
ARE APPOINTMENTS REQUIRED? IS THERE A GUEST LIMIT?
In order to provide the best experience possible, we highly encourage booking an appointment online! We love appointments because we are able to provide a one-on-one, personalized shopping experience, however, Saturday appointments are required.
As we are a smaller boutique, we can accommodate 6 guests at your appointment. If you would like to bring additional guests, we ask that you give us a call or message us so we can prepare your space for you.
WHEN DO I ARRIVE?
Please arrive on time for your appointment. In most cases, we have appointments immediately prior to and immediately following your appointment so should you arrive early or late, we may not be able to immediately assist you or give you the full time allotted for your appointment.
WHAT IS THE PRICE RANGE OF YOUR DRESSES? DO YOU HAVE EVERY DRESS ON THE DESIGNER'S WEBSITES?
The prices of our dresses begin around $1,100 and go up to $5,000. The majority are going to be between $1,500-$2,600. Unfortunately, we do not carry every dress listed on each designer's website. We wish we had the space and funds to do so! If you would like to inquire about a specific style from a designer's website, we would be happy to let you know if it is in store or if it is available in a loaner program!
WHEN DO I NEED TO ORDER MY DRESS?
Bridal gowns take 5-8 months to order, minimum. If you want to take advantage of our in-house seamstress, We would recommend you shop early as she only takes 20 brides per month and she is 90% booked for 2024. 2025 Brides get in while she has availability.
HOW DO I PAY FOR MY DRESS?
We accept all forms of payment (cash, check, credit card). If you prefer to break up the cost, a 60% deposit is required to order your wedding gown and the remainder is due when your dress arrives. Dresses sold “off the rack” must be paid in full at the time of purchase. All special orders are charged sales tax and a flat rate shipping fee from the designer to our boutique. Orders must come to our store first to be inspected.
WHAT UNDERGARMENTS DO I NEED?
Your consultant will be popping in and out of the dressing room to help you into each gown… so wear something you are comfortable in. Light-colored undergarments, strapless bra, and spanx (if desired) are suggested.
DO YOU OFFER ALTERATIONS
IN-HOUSE?
YES, to an extent! We do offer in-house alterations on items purchased at Signature Bridal on a FIRST COME FIRST SERVE basis. We can only take 20 brides per month for alteration services as our seamstress is only one person! Alterations take 12 weeks minimum. We cannot guarantee service if it is less than the given time frame or if we have hit our cap on brides per month. If we are at capacity, we can add you to a waitlist! We do provide a list of other seamstresses in the area.
WHAT OTHER SERVICES DO YOU OFFER?
We also offer accessories such as veils, headpieces, and jewelry. We can assist with gown cleaning and preservation services through Wedding Gown Preservation Company located in Endicott, NY. Please give us a call for additional information on the process.
CAN WE BRING IN FOOD & DRINKS? CAN WE BRING OUR OWN CHAMPAGNE?
Unfortunately, we do NOT allow outside food and drink to be brought into the boutique in order to preserve our gowns. We apologize for the inconvenience but appreciate your understanding!
