Seeing is believing, so our crew regularly post shots to our Instagram feed. Check it out to get a feel of what it’s like to visit The Brides’ Project. You can also visit our Shopify site to view our complete inventory of dresses, and some of our collection of veils and other accessories.
Shopify CatalogueAppointments are required for gown fittings, veil consults and to browse accessories.
Book NowOur gowns are a mix of used and brand new (salon sample) gowns from all the popular designers like Pronovias, Maggie Sottero, Venus, Sophia Tolli, Mori Lee, Paloma Blanca, Ivy & Aster, Robert Bullock and so forth. Our shop is really chill… but we have pros on hand with expert knowledge in design, alterations, fit and styling.
There’s no pressure to buy, but please remember that our gowns aren’t samples. You’re trying on someone else’s wedding gown. We want to keep them in great shape to find a home and raise money to fight cancer.
Note:
Our online inventory is constantly growing… we literally get new additions daily. Trendy items come and go within a matter of hours or days, and most dresses are 3 years old or less. If you’re looking for something specific, you can keep tabs on our IG feed for announcements about new arrivals, and also keep your eye on the “New Arrivals” collection in our Shopify store.
We have 4 very important house rules
- Please do not wear makeup when coming to try on gowns.
- Wear tights/leggings/pantyhose and a bra. This makes it easy to get in and out of dresses.
- You will have the opportunity to try on 5-6 dresses that you have selected yourself. Staff will also have suggestions based on your choices.
- If you can’t picture wearing it on your wedding day… please don’t try it on for fun 🙂
Sizing
We finally gave up trying to explain the difference in wedding dress sizing vs regular clothes – which of course is complicated by the fact that altered dresses may no longer be their stated size. So, here’s the scoop. We are using waist measurements only. Get out a measuring tape and measure up! For women who know themselves to be ‘busty’ or ‘hippy’, add a couple of inches to your waist size when you shop to allow some forgiveness in your more generously proportioned areas!!
You’ll also find a conversion chart (cm/inches) on our shopify site.
Cleaning
Our inventory is a mix of used and salon samples/new dresses. Used dresses are cleaned before being put on the racks. Since dresses are being tried on, they may get some minor shop dirt and benefit from being ‘refreshed’ prior to your big day. We can provide a referral to our recommended cleaner if required.
Alterations
Wedding dresses almost invariably need to be altered to fit properly… this isn’t like buying a pair of stretchy pants at the GAP! We provide referrals to several garment goddesses we have met over the years who can not only do your essential fittings, but do some pretty miraculous transformations too! Check out our referrals here.
Budget friendly
Gowns are sold AS IS, no exceptions. Our prices range from $100 to $2000, with the average gown priced at about $550-600. Please feel comfortable discussing your budget with us to help us tailor your shopping experience for you.
Sales are final
All sales are FINAL on gowns sold on site unless other arrangements are made and put in writing by the owner.
