Every question you’ve probably been quietly Googling.
Before you book, browse or do anything else, everything you need to know about appointments, gowns, designers, pricing and what to expect when you walk through our door.
-
We are located in Trinity Park, Cairns at Shop 5, 64–66 O’Brien Road, Trinity Park. There is parking at the rear of the shopping village for customers.
-
We are by appointment only, which means every bride receives a private, dedicated experience. Our appointments are generally available on selected weekdays generally being Thursday & Friday from 4/4:30pm and then every Saturday, and every other Sunday. Availability is always shown on our booking platform as it can vary depending on staff availability. We’re not open on public holidays.
-
We recommend booking your bridal appointment around 9 to 12 months before your wedding where possible. This gives you enough time for ordering, shipping, and alterations without feeling rushed.
If your wedding is sooner, still reach out or book an appointment. We often have off-the-rack options available and can guide you on what is possible within your timeframe. -
We recommend bringing up to 4 guests but our boutique can accommodate 6 guests in total (might be a little squishy). This keeps the appointment relaxed and focused, while still allowing you to share the moment with the people who matter most.
If you would like to bring more guests, please contact us before booking so we can let you know what is possible. -
We recommend wearing nude or seamless underwear if possible. A strapless bra is optional, but many gowns have built-in structure, so it is not always needed. You don’t need to bring heels as we have a podium with enough height to see the fall of the dress despite it’s length.
-
We carry MWL Bridal, Martina Liana, All Who Wander, and Oxford Street. Our gowns generally range from approximately $2,800 to $6,000, with most gowns sitting between $3,500 and $4,500.
-
Yes, we do have selected off-the-rack gowns available. These are perfect for brides with shorter timeframes, brides wanting to take their gown home sooner, or brides looking for a special gown at a reduced price.
Availability changes regularly, so we recommend booking an appointment or contacting us if you are specifically looking for ready-to-wear options. -
Our first bridal appointment booking fee is $75. This secures your private 90-minute appointment with your bridal stylist and includes your consultation, expert styling, bubbles and chocolates, and exclusive use of the boutique during your appointment.
-
That is completely okay. Every bride’s journey is different, and you will never be pressured to make a decision before you feel ready.
Your appointment is designed to give you clarity about what you love, what suits you and which gown feels most like you. Many brides do find their dress at their first appointment, while others benefit from returning to revisit a favourite with fresh eyes.
Should you need more time, we can arrange a return appointment to help you feel completely confident in your decision. -
We do not complete alterations in-house, but we can recommend trusted local seamstresses who are experienced in bridal alterations. Once your gown arrives, we will talk you through the next steps and what to expect.
-
Most made-to-order gowns take around 5 to 8 months to arrive, depending on the designer and style. We also recommend allowing 1 month for a collection appointment and around 6 to 8 weeks for alterations. Some designers may offer rush options depending on your timeframe, so we can talk through this with you during your appointment.
-
After you order your gown, we place your order with the designer and keep you updated. Once your gown arrives, we will contact you to book your collection appointment. At that appointment, you will try on your actual gown, and we will talk you through alterations, storage, and next steps before your wedding day.
-
Absolutely. We regularly work with brides from across Far North Queensland and beyond. If you are travelling from out of town, we will do everything we can to make your appointment worthwhile, personal, and well-prepared.
We recommend filling out your pre-appointment details thoroughly and letting us know your timeframe, budget, and any gowns you are hoping to try so we can prepare as much as possible before you arrive. -
Yes. Bridal samples are not usually made to your exact measurements. We use clips and styling techniques to help show you how the gown would look when ordered closer to your size and altered to your body.
-
Yes, you are welcome to take photos. They can be helpful when comparing favourites during and after the appointment.
-
Yes, we offer bubbles during bridal appointments for guests over 18. ID may be required. No BYO please. We hold a Liquor Licence and are required to adhere to QLD Liquor Licencing Laws.
-
We recommend keeping appointments adults-only where possible so the bride can feel relaxed and focused during the experience.
-
Once you have made your selection, a deposit of 50% is required to order your wedding gown, and the final balance is required when your dress arrives in the Boutique. Any accessories that you purchase require full payment for these at the time of ordering. We offer the option to pay a 33% deposit, and then a monthly direct debit over 6 months (or the time it takes for the gown to arrive). There is a 1.1% transaction fee +40c per each transaction. We also offer Afterpay (also known as Clearpay), if using Afterpay, you will need to pay the full amount of your gown and any accessories plus a 6% Afterpay fee, you’ll need to advise us if you’re using Afterpay as the processing method is slightly different.
-
We have gowns sized from an Australian size 10 – 20. Please note bridal sizes differ from everyday sizing. We only have one sample of each dress and understand that it can be challenging to visualise your ideal size, colour and accessories. Please don’t worry! This is what we are here for, we will find a creative solution to help you visualise how your gown will look.
Our designers offer the option to order a range of sizes to suit you.
If you are concerned about our sample sizes or have any questions, please contact us before your appointment and we will happily guide you through any questions you may have.
