Frequently Asked Questions – Ashley’s Bridal

What does Ashley’s Bridal specialize in?

Ashley’s Bridal specializes in helping brides find designer wedding gowns that fit their style, body, and wedding vision. Our boutique offers a curated selection of bridal gowns, veils, accessories, and expert guidance in a warm, one-on-one setting. From the first appointment to the final fitting, our focus is making the dress-shopping experience personal, comfortable, and memorable.

Do I need an appointment to shop at Ashley’s Bridal?

Yes, appointments are recommended so every bride receives dedicated time with a professional bridal stylist. Appointments allow us to prepare for your visit, understand your preferences, and ensure fitting rooms and consultants are available. Walk-ins may be accommodated when possible, but scheduled appointments always receive priority.

How far in advance should I shop for my wedding dress?

We recommend shopping 9–12 months before your wedding date. Most wedding gowns take several months to arrive after ordering, and additional time is needed for alterations. If your wedding is sooner, Ashley’s Bridal can help explore rush orders, sample gowns, or off-the-rack options depending on availability.

What designers and styles does Ashley’s Bridal carry?

Ashley’s Bridal carries a carefully selected range of designer wedding dresses that include classic, modern, romantic, and bohemian styles. Our collection includes a variety of silhouettes such as A-line, ball gown, mermaid, sheath, and fit-and-flare. Each gown is chosen for quality, fit, and timeless design so brides can find something truly special.

What sizes are available at Ashley’s Bridal?

Our boutique offers gowns in a wide range of sample sizes, and most dresses can be ordered in extended sizing. Bridal sizing differs from everyday clothing, so our consultants will take professional measurements and guide you to the correct size for the best fit.

How much do wedding dresses at Ashley’s Bridal typically cost?

Wedding dress prices at Ashley’s Bridal vary based on designer, fabric, and detailing. We offer gowns at different price points to accommodate a range of budgets, and our consultants are happy to help you stay within your comfort zone while still finding a dress you love.

Does Ashley’s Bridal offer alterations?

Ashley’s Bridal works with experienced bridal seamstresses who understand the structure and detail of wedding gowns. Alterations are typically scheduled closer to your wedding date and may include hemming, bodice adjustments, or bustle additions. Alteration costs are separate and depend on the work needed.

What should I bring to my bridal appointment?

We recommend bringing undergarments similar to what you plan to wear on your wedding day, along with shoes of similar heel height if you have them. You’re welcome to bring a small group of trusted guests to share the experience, but we encourage keeping the group intimate so the focus stays on you.

Can I purchase accessories at Ashley’s Bridal?

Yes. Ashley’s Bridal offers a selection of veils, headpieces, and bridal accessories designed to complement your gown. Our stylists help you choose accessories that enhance your dress without overwhelming it, ensuring a polished and cohesive bridal look.

What happens after I say “yes” to the dress?

Once you select your gown, we’ll place the order with the designer, confirm your measurements, and review estimated delivery timelines. When your dress arrives, we’ll contact you to schedule fittings and walk you through the next steps leading up to your wedding day.

Does Ashley’s Bridal help with last-minute or short-engagement weddings?

Yes. If your wedding is coming up quickly, Ashley’s Bridal can explore sample gowns, off-the-rack dresses, or rush-order options when available. While selection may be more limited, our team will do everything possible to help you find a beautiful solution on a shorter timeline.

Why choose Ashley’s Bridal over a big-box bridal store?

Ashley’s Bridal offers a personal, boutique-level experience that larger stores can’t match. Brides receive individual attention, honest styling advice, and a relaxed atmosphere focused entirely on finding the right dress—not rushing through appointments. Our goal is for every bride to feel confident, supported, and genuinely excited about her choice.
