Lead time shown on the listing
Your gown is brought to life specifically for your order once you purchase — never pulled from a warehouse rail. It's how we can offer the full size and colour range for every mother of the bride and groom, and why the fit, the fabric and the designer's finishing details arrive exactly as they should — made to sit beautifully and carry you in comfort right through a long, emotional day.
Timeline
The line above ("Ships Within X Weeks") is this gown's production and dispatch window, and it begins the day your payment clears. Allow another 1–3 business days on top for Australia Post to bring it to your door. Have a date you're working towards? Tell us and we'll make sure it's comfortable.
Returns & exchanges
Because each gown is made especially for you, made-to-order pieces are final sale — so we can't usually offer a return or exchange for change of mind. That said, if something isn't quite right when it arrives, please reach out to us anyway — we'll always take a look and do whatever we can to help. To get it perfect the first time, we warmly recommend checking the designer size chart, ordering a swatch, or trying the style at home first with our Try Before You Buy service. Unsure of your size, or shopping without a second opinion? Our stylists would love to talk it through with you — so it's right the first time.
Need it sooner?
Rush production may be possible on selected designs for a small fee — it depends on the designer's current workflow and your event date. Message the team before ordering with your event date and preferred colour, and we'll confirm what's achievable.
