Before We Meet 🤍
We believe your bridal experience should feel just as intentional as your gown. Here are a few things to know before reserving your time with McEllis Brides.
-
For bridal alterations, we recommend beginning approximately 12 weeks before your wedding day. Have less time? Don’t panic—we may still be able to accommodate you. Rush fees may apply.
Shopping for your gown? We recommend beginning 9–12 months before your wedding.
Dreaming of something completely custom? Our custom gown experience is best started 12–15 months before your wedding day.
-
Your appointment is more than a spot on our calendar—it’s dedicated time reserved just for you.
Your appointment fee allows our team to prepare for your visit and provide the personalized, attention your gown deserves. Because that time is reserved especially for you, appointment fees are non-refundable.
-
You shouldn’t have to know exactly what alterations your gown needs—that’s our job. 🤍
Our packages are thoughtfully designed around what we see work best for our brides, making it easy to choose the level of service that fits your gown and your needs.
At your fitting, we’ll evaluate your gown, share our expert recommendation, and guide you to the package that makes the most sense for you.
No guessing. No building your alterations piece by piece. Just expert guidance and a clear plan for your gown.
-
While we don’t carry in-store options for bridesmaids or mothers just yet, we’d still love to help you achieve the perfect fit.
We offer expert alterations and customizations for gowns purchased elsewhere.
