Question 2

What is the price range of your gowns, and how does your made-to-measure service affect the price?

At Marigold Bridal, our wedding gown prices range from $1,800 to over $10,000, and this pricing includes our comprehensive made-to-measure service. This means each gown is custom tailored to your exact measurements, ensuring a precise fit from the start.

Question 3

Which sizes do you carry?

Accepted Answer

Made-to-Measure Gowns
We have samples of gowns averaging between sizes 6-12, with some smaller and some larger. The samples will fit most brides for purposes of trying on and seeing the design. We will be taking 20+ measurements to create you the exact size, proportion, and design that best matches you and your venue.

Off-rack Gowns
Sizes vary depending on what comes in. We have anywhere from a size 0 to 22. Please contact us in advance of booking to make sure we have a size you can work with.

Question 4

What should I bring to my appointment?

Accepted Answer

When coming in for your bridal dress appointment at Marigold Bridal, it is important to bring any undergarments that you plan to wear with your dress. This includes items such as spanks, a strapless bra, and the shoes you intend to wear (for height reference only). These elements are crucial for ensuring an accurate fit and visualizing how the dress will actually look on your big day. For the best experience, we recommend wearing undergarments in a skin tone color so that you can properly see how the dress sits on you.

Question 5

How many people can I bring to my appointment?

Accepted Answer

We ask that you bring up to 2-3 people with you. We find that the narrower your group is, the more focused they are on the success of finding your dream dress. If a loved one can't make it to the appointment, we can do video calls to make sure they're "there" when you need them most!

Question 6

How long does it take for my gown to arrive after placing an order?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the style of the gown and any design changes, it typically takes 4-6 months for your gown to arrive at Marigold Bridal. Once it arrives and passes our quality check, we will promptly contact you to arrange for pick-up. We are committed to ensuring that each gown meets the highest standards before it reaches you, and we appreciate your patience during this important process. Rush orders are possible on most styles. Please reach out directly via email or text if you're concerned about time, and we can assist you right away.

Question 7

Will my gown need alterations once it arrives?

Accepted Answer

At Marigold Bridal, our luxury gown selections are made-to-measure to your exact body measurements and proportions (e.g., petite, tall), ensuring a perfect fit without the need for alterations. However, if your size changes between the time of purchase and your wedding, minor alterations may be required to maintain that perfect fit.

Question 8

Do you offer alteration services for your bridal gowns?

Accepted Answer

At Marigold Bridal, the majority of our gowns are made-to-measure, which allows for a customized fit tailored precisely to your specifications from the very beginning. Given this bespoke approach, we do not offer an in-house alterations service at this time.

However, for those who purchase our off-rack gowns or need further adjustments, we are happy to recommend some top-notch alterations specialists who can handle your needs with exceptional care and expertise. We understand that perfecting the fit of a wedding gown is crucial, and our recommended specialists are known for their precision and dedication to ensuring every bride feels exquisite on her special day.
