    How Far in Advance Should I Begin Dress Shopping?

    We highly recommend starting your dress shopping journey 9-12 months before your wedding date. Ideally, you should make your purchase 8-10 months in advance to ensure ample time for fittings and alterations. While this is the ideal timeframe, we remain flexible to accommodate your needs.

    Do I Need an Appointment?

    Yes, our private fittings are conducted by appointment only. We encourage appointments for brides earnestly seeking their perfect made-to-order gown. To schedule, please utilize our online scheduler on our website. For appointments beyond the available time slots or any other inquiries, email us at lanoirebridal@gmail.com.

    How Long Will My Appointment Be?

    Our private fittings are scheduled for 90 minutes, allowing a buffer for flexibility. Rest assured, if your consultation extends beyond this time, we will gladly schedule additional sessions to ensure your needs are met. For non-local visitors, please inform us in advance to arrange extended fitting times.

    What is the Price Range of Your Gowns?

    Our made-to-order gowns range from $1,900 to $10,000, with the majority priced between $2,500 and $4,500.

    What Size Gowns Are Available for Trying On?

    Our dress samples typically range from size 10-24. Custom gowns can be ordered up to size 14-24, depending on the designer. If your sizing falls outside this range, please contact us beforehand to explore available options.

    Can I Request a Specific Gown Not in Store?

    While we can't permanently stock entire collections, we can inquire about specific gown samples. Reach out via email at lanoirebridal@gmail.com to discuss your preferences.

    What Does Made-to-Order Mean?

    When ordering a made-to-order gown, it means your dress isn't pre-made and production begins upon order placement. These gowns are crafted based on standard dress sizes or S/M/L/XL sizing. To ensure the perfect fit, professional alterations are required.

    How Many People Can I Bring?

    For an intimate experience, we suggest limiting your guests to six. While we appreciate the joy of celebrations, we prioritize your comfort and focus during the fitting.

    Is the Boutique Dog-Friendly?

    We adore pets but, regrettably, our boutique cannot accommodate them due to the nature of our products. We appreciate your understanding.

    What Should I Bring to My Appointment?

    Apart from your radiant self, bring any undergarments and shoes you plan to wear on your wedding day if applicable. Nude undergarments are preferred.

    What's the Start-to-Finish Process of Purchasing a Dress from LaNoire Bridal?

    Your initial appointment includes a one-hour dress-up session and measurements. Once your gown arrives, you'll have a follow-up appointment for final inspections. You'll then collaborate with a seamstress for any necessary alterations. Expect around 5 fittings from start to finish.

    How Long Does a Made-to-Order Gown Take?

    Made-to-order gowns typically have a 6-10 month lead time. Rush orders are available with additional fees; contact us if you're within 6 months of your wedding date.

    Do You Offer Alterations?

    While we don't provide in-house alterations, we can recommend local seamstresses. Costs vary based on the extent of alterations needed.

    What Is a Trunk Show?

    A trunk show offers a limited-time opportunity to view additional styles from a specific designer outside our regular collection. Appointments are necessary, so book early.

    Is There a Cancellation Policy?

    Kindly notify us 48 hours in advance if you need to cancel or reschedule. Fittings canceled under 24 hours from the appointment will not be refunded.
