Discover your Wedding Dress at our London Bridal Boutique

It is recommended to begin searching for a wedding dress 10-12 months before your wedding, but this may vary depending on the type of dress you desire. If you are interested in a made-to-measure designer wedding dress, the production and alteration process can take between 7 to 9 months. However, this timeline may differ from one bridal boutique to another and from designer to designer. In some cases, a rush order for a made-to-order dress can be completed in as little as 12 weeks/3 months, although this service incurs an additional fee of approximately 10% or 15% of the dress cost.

Yes, it is still possible to find a wedding dress if you are getting married in a few weeks. You may want to consider purchasing a sample dress which can be altered quickly to fit your body and take home on the same day of purchase. If you require alterations, we offer a rush service that can be completed in 3 to 4 weeks to ensure that your dress is ready for your wedding day.

A bridal appointment typically involves trying on a variety of wedding dresses to find the perfect one for your special day. Here are some things to expect from a typical bridal appointment:

Meeting with a bridal stylist: You will be greeted by a bridal consultant who will discuss your preferences that have been discussed over Whatsapp, budget, and wedding details with you to get a sense of your style. Light nibbles and filtered water will be available for you and your guests. We run a closed door policy so you will have your own private floor and fitting room to yourself.

Trying on dresses: Based on discussion you had with us on Whatsapp, the stylist will bring out the selection of dresses for you to try on. Our stylist will also recommend other dresses during the appointment as you find out your preferences and see what looks and feels best on you.

Taking measurements: At the end of the bridal appointment, stylist will take your measurements so we can recommend what size would fit your body shape.

Questions: Throughout the appointment, the stylist may ask you questions about your preferences, feedback on the dresses you've tried on, and your overall vision for your wedding day.

Overall, a bridal appointment at Evelie is a fun and relaxed experience where you can try on beautiful dresses and veils to find the perfect look for your wedding day

To make the most of your bridal appointment, we recommend that you bring the following items with you:
- A hair tie to tie up your hair so you can easily try on different dresses and hairstyles.
- Nude seamless underwear, such as briefs, to prevent any visible marks under the dress. Please avoid wearing black or tight briefs. If you are unable to wear a nude or white bra, we have cup inserts available that are sprayed with anti-bacterial spray before and after each use.
- You do not need to bring shoes as we have a selection of shoes available in our boutique for you to try on.
- To ensure the hygiene of our shoes, we provide recycled disposable pop socks for you to use during your appointment.

By bringing these items, you can have a more comfortable and seamless bridal appointment experience.

Your bridal appointment is scheduled to last for one hour, during which time you will have the opportunity to try on a minimum of five wedding dresses. Depending on the amount of time you spend in each dress, it may be possible to try on a maximum of 7-8 dresses during your appointment.

Please note that we are unable to let you into our boutique before your appointment start time, as we do not have a waiting area. We kindly ask that you arrive on time to ensure that you have the full hour for your appointment. We look forward to helping you find your dream wedding dress!

You are welcome to bring up to four guests with you to your bridal appointment on the first floor and two guests on the ground floor. However, we kindly ask that you refrain from bringing toddlers or pets, as our boutique environment is not suitable for them.

Absolutely! We understand that some brides prefer to go wedding shopping alone, as it can be helpful to get an idea of what shape and silhouette suits their body type best without any outside opinions or distractions. Going alone can also allow you to focus on the wedding dress styles that you truly love and that make you feel the most beautiful on your special day. Whether you choose to bring someone with you or not, our expert bridal consultants are here to help you find the perfect dress that makes you feel confident and beautiful.

Our main collection features wedding dress samples that are available in size 12 or 14, which can typically fit brides ranging from UK 6 to UK 14. In addition, we have a separate Curve collection that is specifically designed to fit brides ranging from UK 16 to UK 22, ensuring that we have options available for a variety of body types and sizes. Our goal is to help every bride feel confident and beautiful on their wedding day, and we believe that offering a diverse range of sizes and styles is essential to achieving that goal

Our collection of new wedding dresses typically ranges in price from £1000 to approximately £2,500, depending on the specific design and details of each dress. For brides looking for a great deal, we also offer a selection of sample sale wedding dresses, which are available starting from £500. These dresses are still beautiful and high-quality, but are typically from previous collections and have been used as samples for brides to try on in our boutique. We believe that every bride deserves to feel beautiful on their wedding day, regardless of their budget, and we are committed to offering a range of options to suit a variety of needs and preferences.

Each wedding dress designer has their own unique sizing chart, so the body measurements for a size 10 dress from one designer may differ from the body measurements of a size 10 dress from another designer. It's important for brides to keep this in mind when shopping for a wedding dress and to focus on finding a dress that fits well and flatters their body, rather than getting too caught up in the size label. Our experienced bridal consultants can help guide brides through the sizing process and find the perfect dress for their individual body shape and preferences.

If you would like to try on up to two wedding dresses that you tried on at your initial bridal appointment, we can schedule another appointment for you. However, please note that there will be a fee for this second appointment. If you ultimately decide to purchase a dress from us, we will refund the second appointment fee. Our goal is to ensure that you feel comfortable and confident with your final decision and we're happy to work with you to make that happen.

Certainly! We offer an in-house bridal alteration service with a standard turnaround of 8 to 10 weeks for wedding dress alterations. If you require a faster service, we also offer a 4 week Rush service upon request. Additionally, we can arrange for one of our seamstress partners to come to your home to alter your wedding dress or gown.

Yes, wedding dresses can be altered to be taken in. It's common to adjust a wedding dress down by 1 or 2 sizes, but it's important to consult with a professional seamstress or boutique to determine the feasibility of larger alterations. For some styles, taking in a dress too much can impact the overall fit and look of the dress. It's also possible to take a photo of yourself in the dress and use visible pins or clips to simulate the fit you desire, and then consult with a seamstress to determine the best course of action.

It is possible to let out a wedding dress, but it depends on the specific dress and the amount of fabric that is available in the seams. Some dresses may have enough seam allowance to be let out, while others may not. It is best to ask us whether a specific dress can be let out and by how much. Additionally, some dresses may be designed with a seam that allows for alterations to be made, but this is not always the case.

A bustle is a practical and stylish solution for a wedding dress with a train. It involves tying up the train so that the bride can move around with ease after the wedding ceremony and photos. A bustle can be customized to match the style and design of the wedding dress, and when done correctly, it can add to the overall elegance and beauty of the dress.

A wedding dress box that is cabin size approved is the best option for transporting your wedding dress as a carry-on item on a plane. By folding the dress carefully and placing it in the box, you can keep it safe and secure under your seat or in the overhead bin. This can be a better option than checking your dress as luggage, as it reduces the risk of damage or loss during travel.

We do not offer exchanged, returns or refunds and any deposits made on new wedding dress orders are non-refundable.
