Your Guide to a Seamless Bridal Appointment
Finding the perfect wedding dress is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and at Anna Campbell, we are here to guide you every step of the way. Whether you're newly engaged or ready to say yes to the dress, here’s everything you need to know about preparing for your bridal appointment, what to expect, and how to plan ahead for alterations.
Before Your Appointment: How to Prepare
To make the most of your bridal appointment, a little preparation goes a long way! Here’s how you can get ready:
Inspiration is key – Browse our collection online or on Instagram and save styles that speak to you. Consider details like silhouettes, embellishments, and fabric preferences.
Book in advance – We recommend scheduling your appointment early, especially if you have a specific timeline in mind.
Choose your entourage wisely – Bring up to three loved ones who understand your vision and will offer supportive feedback.
Wear the right undergarments – A nude strapless bra and seamless underwear help give a better idea of how a dress will fit.
Be open to trying new styles – Sometimes, the gown you least expect will be the one you fall in love with!
What to Expect During Your Bridal Appointment
Your bridal appointment at Anna Campbell is an intimate and personalised experience. Here’s what you can look forward to:
A warm welcome – We’ll greet you with bubbles and guide you through our collection.
Private styling session – You’ll have 1.5 hours with one of our expert stylists to try on gowns, explore customisations, and discover the details that make your dream dress uniquely yours.
Photos are encouraged – Capture special moments during your appointment to look back on and share with loved ones.
Expert guidance – Our stylists will help you navigate fabrics, silhouettes, and embellishments to ensure your dress fits your vision.
When to Be Ready to Purchase Your Gown
We recommend saying “yes” to the dress 9-12 months before your wedding. Our gowns are made to order, and this timeline ensures enough time for production, shipping, and alterations. If your wedding is sooner, reach out to us about the options.
After You Purchase: What’s Next?
Once you’ve chosen your gown, we’ll guide you through the next steps, including:
Production & Delivery – Your gown will be made to order and delivered within the agreed timeframe.
Alterations – To achieve a flawless fit, we offer an in-house alteration service, ensuring your dress fits you perfectly for your big day.
Final Fittings – We’ll schedule your alteration appointments to allow time for adjustments and finishing touches.
