Do I need RUSH ?

Wedding dresses and bridesmaid dresses from better designers typically are made to order and take time for delivery. This is quite different in todays "off the rack" world of department stores, outlet shops and discount bridal warehouses. So planning ahead is a must if you want a designer wedding dress and not some factory dress that you have seen on a hundred brides.

We ask for the event date at the time of order to check the availability of your dress. We will actually hold you order and contact you by email or phone if the time frame looks as if you will need RUSH. We will also contact you by phone or email if the timeframe of your event is earlier than the delivery of your dress. At the time that we contact you, you will be notified of a RUSH fee if needed and any other changes that need to be made to correct the order. You have at this time the ability to continue with the order or cancel if you are unhappy with choices. Please see our Return Policy for more information on cancellations.

Wedding dresses typically take 16 to 18 weeks for delivery once the order is placed with us. The RUSH delivery timeframe can shorten this time to only 12 to 14 weeks, depending upon the manufacturer. RUSH fees are typically $150. Some of our wedding gowns are in stock with the manufacturer and can be delivered to you in as little as 2 weeks without the RUSH fee. Sample wedding dresses can be had in under a week and there is no RUSH fee.

Bridesmaid dresses typically take 12 to 14 weeks for delivery once the order is placed with us. The RUSH delivery timeframe can shorten this time to only 6 -10 weeks, depending upon the manufacturer. RUSH fees can range from $30 to $40 per dress by the manufacturer. There are no bridesmaid dresses in stock with the manufacturer or us. We have discontinued sample bridesmaid dresses that can be had in under a week with no RUSH fee.
