Life throwing a wrench in your wedding plans? Let’s talk!
Church Street Bridal staff has helped countless women with short timelines find their dream dress. (Check out our gallery and praise for CSB. ) Here are our tips and tricks to get your dress, even when the clock is tickin’!
Plan to buy a sample gown. Buying “off the rack” isn’t limited to brides with short timelines, but it’s a great option for 2 main reasons.
You will save money! Full-service salons can order a dress from a designer, but you may pay hefty rush fees. In addition, sample gowns are less expensive across the board. For example, all the gowns at Church Street Bridal are priced between $200- $600.
When you buy a sample gown at Church Street Bridal, you get to walk out of the shop with your dress in hand. You have it and can immediately check that off your list, rather than waiting on your dress to be delivered to the salon, be shipped to you, etc.
Secure an appointment with a bridal alteration specialist, even before you buy your gown. This means that you have someone that can alter the gown that you fall in love with! This will also give you confidence as you shop. When you find something, you know it can be altered to fit you on your day!
Before you go shopping, let our bridal consultants know your timeline and budget. We can tailor our recommendations and advice for your specific situation.

Ladies, never forget the tale of the ‘3:30 PM bride’!
A few years ago, a sweet and soft-spoken bride walked in. So soft-spoken that the bridal consultants thought they misheard her when she said that she was getting married THAT day. Instead of planning an elaborate wedding, they had decided to say ‘I do’ at 5:00 PM. After we shook off the shock, we all got to work!
30 minutes later she said “yes” to a beautiful ivory gown.
After years of receiving photos from happy and gorgeous brides, we know you have got this!
