2. What should I bring to my appointment?
We welcome you to bring along any shoes and/or underwear you’d like to try during your appointment, however, this isn’t mandatory. Your bridal appointment is also a great opportunity to bring along any accessories you’re thinking of wearing with your dress.
3. Who should I bring to my appointment?
We suggest you limit the guest list to no more than 4 guests whose style opinion you value.
3. How far in advance should I book my consultation appointment?
We recommend starting your bridal journey 12 months prior to your wedding day.
This timeline would allow ample time for your dress search in addition to our standard leadtime of 6-8 months dependent on the service you’ve chosen.
4. What is the process for creating a bespoke bridal gown?
The Bespoke Bridal service begins with an initial consultation to discuss your dream dress. During this appointment with our Bespoke specialist, you will try our collection samples and compare fabric options.
From your initial consultation, a unique sketch presentation will be created by our design team. Once the design is approved, you will receive a custom quote for your dress.
Upon completion of your dress, you’ll begin the fitting process to perfect the fit in the lead up to your wedding day!
5. What is the price range for a bespoke gown?
The Demi Bespoke service incorporates an original Emilia Wickstead design combined with modifications and starts from £12,000.
The Bespoke service is an original dress designed and developed specific to your personal aesthetic, starting from £25,000.
