How many people can I bring with me to my appointment?
We ask that you bring no more than 8 guests. If you plan to bring more guests, please let us know in advance so we can accommodate your larger party.
What kind of undergarments should I wear?
Typically a strapless bra and nude panties are great pieces to wear. Most brides trying gowns don't wear their bras during the appointment, but this is up to you.
Is there parking?
We do not have a parking lot, however there is metered hourly street parking and the Casino Nova Scotia parking lot is just down the street.
How long before my wedding day should I book in advance?
We recommend you book an appointment a minimum of 9 months before your wedding day.

Our dresses are made to order, it can take up to 7 months for your dress to be made and arrive in the shop. We can rush gowns in but there will be fees associated with this.

We strongly recommend booking an appointment as we may be in another consultation and not be able to help you in the way we would like and that you deserve.
How long is an appointment?
We book each first time consultation for 75 minutes, so you don't feel rushed and so we can find your perfect dress.
