When Should I Start Shopping For My Dream Dress? | Bridal FAQs
It’s never too early to find your dream dress. Many of our gowns take 8–10 months to be made, however this can fall either side of this, and we recommend allowing 2–3 months for any necessary alterations once your gown arrives.
Booking early ensures you have access to our exclusive designer collections and plenty of time to secure your ideal style. We also provide a luxurious experience with Prosecco on arrival, so your appointment is as enjoyable as it is memorable.
If your wedding is less than 12 months away, don’t stress! We can add a rush order fee to get your dream gown sooner, or you can choose one of our sample dresses, many of which are available to take home on the day. This way, even with a tighter timeline, you can still walk away with the dress you love.
You can easily book your appointment online or contact our team for personalised guidance.

Who Should I Bring With Me To My Appointment? | Bridal FAQs
When it comes to your appointment, it’s important to bring the people who truly support you. We suggest 2–3 trusted friends or family members whose presence makes you feel confident, calm, and excited, not stressed or overwhelmed.
Remember, you’re not there for your friends’ opinions; they are there to support you and cheer you on as you find your dream dress. Your Verona Bridal stylists will guide you every step of the way, ensuring your experience is stress-free, fun, and memorable.
If you’d rather come alone, that’s completely fine too. Our team will be your perfect hype girls, offering expert advice, encouragement, and a friendly, supportive atmosphere, like having your best friends by your side while you try on gowns.
At Verona Bridal, we make sure every bride feels celebrated, confident, and supported, no matter who you bring (or don’t bring!) to your appointment.

How Much Should I Expect To Spend On A Dress? | Bridal FAQs
Our gowns vary in price depending on the designer and style, with many of our dresses falling in the £2,500 to £4,500 range, and some of our most intricate couture designs costing over £10,000.
Gowns can be paid in full at the time of ordering, or you may choose to pay a 50% deposit, with the remainder due within 14 days of notification that your gown has arrived in-store.

What Should I Know About Wedding Dress Sizing? Will You Have My Size Available? | Bridal FAQs
Bridal sizing is not the same as regular clothing sizes, so it is normal if your gown size is different from your high street size. Each designer uses their own individual size guide, so we always take your measurements during your appointment to order your gown in the closest size for that specific designer.
Most of our sample gowns are roughly equivalent to UK sizes 8 – 12, with a few options either side of this range. It is rare for any bride to fit perfectly into a sample gown, so our stylists will help clip you into each dress to give you a better idea of how it will look in your correct size.
If your size is not available, do not worry. Your consultant will help you envision how the dress will look and fit, even if it is not an exact match. Some silhouettes, such as ballgowns and A-line dresses, are easier to try on even if the size is not perfect.
Talk to your consultant and we will do everything we can to make sure you feel comfortable, confident, and excited during your appointment.
