Frequently Asked Question's
Q: How many guests can I bring to my bridal appointment?
A: We know this is a big deal and everyone wants a front-row seat, but to keep the Something Blue Experience stress-free and comfortable, we allow up to 4 guests for our standard appointment. You can upgrade your appointment to one of our premium bridal appointments for more guests, and other exclusive perks!
​
Q: Do I need an appointment or can I just walk in?
A: Weekend visits are by appointment only. Walk-ins are welcome during the week.
​
Q: What’s the price range for your gowns?
A: Our gowns typically range from $1,400 to $4,000, with the sweet spot being around $1,500–$1,800. We’re all about helping you find your dream dress at the price that feels right for you.
​
Q: Do you offer alterations?
A: Yes! We have an in-house seamstress, Eleanor, who works magic. Alterations are separate from the gown price, and most brides invest around $500–$800 depending on the customizations and fit adjustments needed.
​
Q: Do you only do wedding dresses?
A: Nope! We’re here for all of life’s milestones. In addition to bridal gowns, we carry mothers’ dresses, tux and suit rentals, accessories. We also offer custom décor rentals & services. Basically, we’re your one-stop shop for looking good and throwing a gorgeous party.
​
Q: What makes the “Something Blue Experience” different?
A: Simple...we don’t do cookie-cutter. From your first appointment to your final fitting, you’ll have a team that listens, styles, and helps you feel confident. Plus, our décor rentals, tux services, and wellness add-ons mean you can check more boxes off your to-do list without running all over town.
​
Q: Do you have tuxes or suits for out-of-town groomsmen?
A: Absolutely! We work with Jim’s Formal Wear and Milroy's, which means guys can get measured locally and have their tux shipped straight to them, or picked up here the week of the wedding. Stress-free, just the way it should be.
​
Q: Can I rent décor without booking planning services?
A: Yes! Our décor rentals are available on their own, or you can bundle them with setup/tear down or coordination services. From arches and linens to candles and centerpieces, we’ve got all the pretty things to bring your Pinterest board to life.
​
Q: How far in advance should I shop for my dress?
A: Even though we are an off the rack shop, we still recommend starting 10–14 months before your wedding to give yourself time to alter your gown. However, since we sell off the rack, if you are on a tighter timeline you can still find your dream gown here, and take it home with you day of.
​
Q: Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! We know weddings and events are a big investment, and we’re happy to help make payments easier.
For wedding gowns, a 50% deposit is required at the time of purchase. The remaining balance can be split into manageable payments due 60 days after your deposit.
For rentals and event services, a 50% deposit is required to hold your date, and the final payment is due 30 days before your event.
We also offer Affirm for select event services for added flexibility.
