Design Direction

Made To Your Proportions

We take your measurements of shoulder to floor including wedding day shoes, bust, waist and hips. This ensures your dress will accommodate your unique shape whilst saving you extensive alterations costs.

3 Months Production Time

Your chosen wedding dress will now enter production, as we collaborate with and directly lead our team of elite international artisans, overseeing your design at every stage. After an exceptional three-month production period, your beautifully crafted, perfectly fitting wedding dress will arrive at our bridal house. 

The Final Reveal

It's time for your final reveal. You will come to us for your private fitting and when we unzip the wedding dress bag you will see your beautiful dress for the first time and step into it to feel it against your skin.  

The Expert Fitting

Once you’re standing in your dress, we’ll talk about how you feel and ensure you’re completely happy. We’ll then assess the fit and professionally advise if any adjustments are needed. Around 99% of our brides require no alterations, thanks to our made-to-proportion approach, while a small number may need minor adjustments if measurements have changed. 

Professional Seamstress

While we don’t do in-house alterations, we place complete trust in Chrissie Dawson based in Lancing, West Sussex. As an independent, Haute Couture trained seamstress, she is simply the best—fast, affordable, and highly skilled. Telephone 07554884231

Proportion & Fit Guidance

Made To Proportions And Size Changes

At Carolyn Anne’s Bridal, every gown is made to your exact proportions, not standard sizing. Dresses usually arrive four months before your wedding and fit beautifully, with minor adjustments to straps or sleeves normal for a perfect, secure fit. Any alterations needed due to size changes or personal preference are the bride’s responsibility and may incur additional costs. We can recommend our trusted seamstress for final finishing touches. 

Lead times, Payments and Refunds

Normal Lead Times

Construction begins approximately 7 months before your wedding, with your dress arriving in the boutique around 4 months prior to your date. This timeframe allows a 16-week window for any necessary alterations and ensures your wedding dress is completed with care, precision and calm, never rushed. if you do  not have  10 months before your wedding , please talk to us and we will still help you the best we can.

Payment

Your wedding dress must be secured 10 months prior to your wedding date to guarantee your production slot and fabric allocation. Full payment is required at the time of ordering. Upon request, we offer a split option of 50% at 10 months and 50% at 7 months when your wedding dress enters production.

Refund Policy

All wedding dresses are made to order, customised or bespoke. For this reason, all purchases are final.
