How Does Buying a Wedding Dress Work?

Step-by-step instructions describe exactly what to expect when you come to pick out your wedding dress at Pippi Bridal Fashion.

Are You Getting Married? Then you are probably already looking at wedding dresses too! You look on Instagram, TikTok and create Pinterest boards. But still you wonder how buying a wedding dress in a real bridal store goes. You hear all kinds of things, but how does buying a wedding dress really work?

Getting Acquainted In Three Quarters

At Pippi Bridal Fashion, you can choose an introductory appointment or a “regular” fitting appointment. The introductory appointment lasts 45 minutes and is designed to get acquainted first and only then to decide if Pippi Bridal Fashion is right for you. Do you feel good about the store’s atmosphere? Do you like the collection of dresses and suits? Do you already see dresses you would really like to try on? If everything pleases you, then make a “real” fitting appointment.

After Selecting Your Wedding Dress

If you are successful, your dress will be ordered. It usually takes 3-5 months for your dress or suit to arrive in stores. You will be notified immediately and we will make an appointment with the cutter. At one such fitting appointment, feel free to bring some guests, but again: max. 3!

Did you fail because you just couldn’t choose between 2 dresses, for example, or because you tried on too many different dresses and just don’t remember? No worries! We will then schedule an extra fitting appointment, so you can come back for another fitting at your leisure. It often succeeds then!

If you have (bridal) children and would like to dress your children beautifully during the wedding as well, please consult what the seamstress can do for you. We can order extra fabric from your dress and use it to make matching children’s dresses or, for example, vests.

You come to the store 3-5 times, to try on with the cutter. You can then get used to your dress, you can try on accessories and we can be sure everything is absolutely perfect.

If desired, we will also start testing with various types of shapewear, adhesive bras and possibly boob tape, so that later at your wedding you will feel confident all day and not have to worry about anything.

Do we have less time, or do you live far away? Then we will schedule several appointments in one day, so that at the end of the day you can take home your dress, perfectly tailored to your needs!
