FAQs

Do I need to book an appointment?

We really love to spend quality time with our brides, so we always ask bride to make an appointment,. Please note Saturday and Wednesday evening appointments book up several weeks in advance, so if you have a specific date that works with your bridal party, get booked in as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. 

How many people can I bring with me?

We can cater for your bridal party as long as we are made aware of how many guests you will be bringing with you. We do always advise to make sure you bring the right people with you, those that will give you sound advice and help guide you to your dream dress.

Do I need to bring anything with me to my appointment?

No need to bring anything with you except your self and an open mind.  When you come to SCB we ask you and your bridal party to remove your shoes to embrace a relaxed vibe whilst getting comfy on our sofas. 

How long will my appointment be?
On your first appointment we allow 1.5 hours to 2 hours to really start your dress journey.
Will I be the only bride in the showroom?
No, we can have more than one bride in at any time. If you would like an exclusive appointment please speak to us about the options we can offer.
What sizes do you have available?

Our main sample stock is all available from size 6 to size 34 (depending on the designer). Our sample gowns range from 12 – 28. Please bare in mind that in bridal most brides tend to come up in a larger size than their normal day to day clothing.

How soon should I start my dress shopping before my wedding?

Dresses take up to 6 months to arrive from ordering. Your seamstress will also require 2 months with you before your big day. So no time is too early to start your journey. We suggest 9 – 18 months as a good timescale. 

I get married in 3 months time and still haven't found my dress, can you help?
We have a selection of dresses in our off the rail section that could be options for you. We can also look at rush orders for you from certain designers.
I want to order my dress, but I'm currently losing weight, what do I do?

We would love to spend time with you, choosing your perfect dress. Once we have found your dream dress, we can work with you on choosing the correct size for you and even do a remeasure before finalising the order with the designers.

I really want to visit your showroom, do you have wheelchair access?
Yes our showroom is accessible for wheelchairs, we have disabled parking too.
