We carry regular dress sizes 00-16. All of our gowns are listed as regular dress sizes because we understand that not everyone understands/knows what bridal sizing is. While we can guarantee a good deal, we can’t guarantee all sizes. We carry one size of each gown, and they are purchased as-is, off the rack.

None of our gowns have been previously owned, altered or worn outside of our showroom. We are excited to be partnering with designers that have sent us brand-new gowns at outlet cost. In addition, we have a selection of sample sale gowns that have been gently loved from our sister store next door, Samila Bridal and Formal. We are the only bridal shop in the greater Seattle area that offers both and our complete catalogue on our website. Our entire inventory of dresses, prices and sizes can be previewed before coming in. 

We currently offer a layaway plan. For the layaway plan, we require a 50% deposit, and the remaining balance is due in 90 days. The wedding gown will be kept in our showroom until the remaining balance is paid. We accept all credit cards and cash. Checks are not accepted.
