Will My Wedding Dress Be On-Time?

There has been several concerns brought to our attention about the wide-spread Coronavirus effecting the wedding dress industry, we want you to know not to worry!  At Fantasy Bridal, we have had all of our designers reach out to us and let us know that everything is still in order.

According to Justin Alexander in a recent press release, “…brides-to-be will receive their wedding dresses without delay. All of their Chinese factories have reopened and are expected to be fully staffed by the end of March”.

Venus Bridal, one of our many designers that we carry in-store, also made a statement about what they are doing in the midst of the outbreak. “Our team will prioritize “Work in Progress” and expedite time-sensitive orders for March and April wear dates. We are temporarily suspending new rush and quick delivery orders and remain optimistic with our standard, non-rush deliveries and will provide updates to this as the situation develops”.

Both Justin Alexander and Maggie Sottero have made statements that the virus cannot survive on their products.  “According the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the answer is: “Almost certainly NO. Because of poor survivability of the virus on surfaces, there is likely very low risk of it spreading via products or packages that are shipped over a period of days or weeks”.

At Fantasy Bridal, we validate your concerns and being around for over 30 years we have faced numerous challenges such as the recent Chinese Tariffs and the LA Port Strikes of 2014.  There has never been an occurrence that a bride has not been able to receive their wedding dress on-time for their special day.  With our long-time experience, we automatically pad each wedding dress designers dates anywhere from two to four weeks to account for any possible delays that might incur.

Even if you still have concerns about ordering your wedding dress, Fantasy Bridal offers over 1,000 gowns that can be purchased in-store. We also do a free press and detail to ensure your wedding dress is ready for your special wedding day!

Why Should I Get My Dress Altered?

You’ve said yes to your dream dress, now what’s next? Likely you’ll need to have your dress altered before you walk down the aisle. Many brides wonder why they should get their dress altered, the best answer is that you want the dress to fit you as perfect as possible for your special day! Many our brides will make the comment that their wedding dress is the most expensive piece of clothing they’ll wear in their lifetime, so they want it to fit them perfectly.

What if you ordered your dress? Do you still need it altered? The answer is YES! When a dress is ordered for you, it isn’t ordered to your specific measurements, it is ordered in the size that is closest to your measurements. Because of this, it likely won’t match up perfectly. Not only will the size likely need some adjustments, but the length will as well. A standard wedding dress is made for a bride who is 5’9″ (or sometimes taller)! By planning ahead, you often can eliminate the need to alter the length by ordering a shorter length from the designer, but this option is only available to those whose time frame can accommodate full ship times (typically 3-5 months).

What if you feel like your dress already fits perfectly? We still recommend meeting with one of our fitting specialists to make sure they don’t see something you missed. Because they are professionally trained in this field, they may notice something about the way your dress fits that you didn’t notice. Or they may tell you it does fit perfectly! It’s best to get a second opinion either way.

How long does it take to have my dress altered? We will do our best to work with your time frame, but you do want to allow at least 2-3 months for us to have it altered in house for you. Because of the amount of brides we help, our turnaround time is a bit longer than other seamstresses. We are happy to recommend you to outside seamstresses with a faster time frame if you need it.

What is the cost to alter a wedding dress? Because each bride will need something different, it is impossible to know the exact cost you will need to pay to alter your dress. Typical alterations can cost anywhere from $150-$500. Once you have selected your dress at Fantasy Bridal, you can meet with one of our fitting specialists for an exact cost of alterations.

To Veil or Not to Veil

It seems like veils are more in question now than ever. Do you wear a veil on your wedding day, or do you opt for a headpiece? Can you do both? Or should you do neither? If you do decide on a veil, what length and color should it be? There are so many things to think about when selecting your finishing touches for your wedding day look. Although it may seem overwhelming, our consultants will be able to help you select the perfect accessories for your special day!

Veils come in many different shapes, colors, lengths and styles. But lucky for you, there isn’t only one perfect veil for each wedding dress. The veil you should wear on your wedding day is the one you like the most! That’s it. But here are a few veil facts that might help you find just what you are looking for.

SHAPE. Veils can come in many different shapes. Some are oval, some circle, and some are even more of a square shape. Each will frame your face differently, so you might find you prefer one shape to the others.

COLOR. Veils come in a variety of colorways. You will want to find a veil that matches the color of your dress. If your dress has two tones then you have multiple options. Common veil colors are white, ivory, champagne, blush, and butterscotch, but there are even more options if none of those quite fit what you are looking for. Your consultant will have a trained eye to help you find the perfect color of veil to match your dress.

LENGTH. Veils can come in about any length you can imagine, but the most typical veil lengths are elbow, fingertip, waltz, floor and cathedral. Each offer their own unique look to complement your wedding dress. A knowledgeable consultant will be able to walk you through selecting the perfect veil length to complete your wedding day look.

STYLE. The style of your veil is what you and likely others will notice more than anything else. Most veils will fall into three different style categories: lace, beads or plain. These are very broad categories and there are so many veils that have lace and beads or something else altogether. But this will give you a nice place to get started when deciding exactly how you want your veil to look.
