1. SIZING - HOW DO I GET ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS?

If you’re online shopping for your wedding dress, taking accurate measurements is your #1 priority. We have a whole page of information and videos to guide you through this, but we know this is a key step, so our bridal stylist, Irene, is more than happy to confirm these with you during your appointment.

Two Things To Note:

- Do not forget to account for the height of the heel during the measuring process. You don’t need to wear them while measuring, but you must be make note of their height. You do not want to end up with a dress too short!

- Wedding dress sizes run one size larger than normal street sizing. For example, if you are a US size 4 in regular clothing, you will need to try on the size 6 wedding dress.

Knowing that information, when you do order your dress to try on at home, you will conveniently receive a measuring tape which you can keep! Once you choose your dress and take your measurements, Afarose will custom make your dress with no extra fees. Click here to get started!

2. DELIVERY - HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?

In general, it will takes 4-5 weeks from your purchase date to receive your final dress in hand. To get a more accurate timeline, you may check the product page of your chosen dress! There will be an estimated delivery time for you to get a more accurate number. If you do need it sooner, you can choose to purchase expedited shipping.

3. STYLE SUGGESTIONS - WHAT STYLE WORKS FOR ME?

Wether you know exactly what you want and just need some confirmation, or you have never tried on a wedding dress before, Irene is ready to give you great suggestions and point you in the right direction. Her goal is to make you feel 1000% confident in your dress choice, because when you look good, you FEEL good! And let’s face it, most weddings usually have a couple things that don’t exactly go as planned. If we can ensure one thing is perfect, we want to give you that peace of mind! Before your appointment, you will fill out a brief questionnaire so Irene can have an idea of what you’re looking for and prepare your options. Click here to browse our bridal styles!
