Start thinking of choosing your dress about 8 months to a year before the wedding if you can. Any sooner and you could find that you miss out on the new collections. As so many other aspects of your wedding can evolve from your choice of dress (accessories, bridesmaids, flowers, grooms outfit, maybe even the cake and decoration of your reception venue) it's a good idea to make it one of the first items that you choose.

Yes, we work on an appointment only basis so we can give you at least an hour of uninterrupted time with a knowledgeable bridal consultant.

When making your appointment on the telephone, tell the consultant as much as you can about what you want and the style of wedding you are planning. If you don't know, don't worry! Take along any pictures you find appealing but keep an open mind. Until you try on dresses it's very hard to know what will be right.

It's lovely to have some positive views and reassurance from a trusted friend or relative at your first appointment. However having too many opinions about what you should wear can be confusing and unhelpful. Remember the choice of dress is YOURS, so try not to bring along a crowd of supporters who may just confuse you. Also keeping your choice of dress a secret all helps with the surprise element on the day.

If you are planning to lose weight for your wedding, don't leave it too long before you go looking for your dress, otherwise it may not be possible to get some dresses in time. Here at Morgan Davies we have lots of tricks we can use to make the samples look good on you, whatever your dress size. Please don't be self-conscious, we are here to help you whatever your body shape.

Wearing pale or nude coloured smooth underwear will always help with the look and fit of our brdal gowns. We have some bridal underwear which can help with the fit of more traditional styles and make you feel fantastic. Ask your bridal consultant for guidance with underwear, they have a wealth of knowledge that you can take advantage of.

Delivery times can vary according to the designer and the time of year, however most dresses will take anything from 12 - 24 weeks. Some designers offer a 'Rush Service' where a dress can come in quicker if you are pressed for time. There is usually a charge for this.

Here at Morgan Davies we offer a full alteration service using professional experienced seamstresses and fitters. There is a charge for this service and this will be discussed with you when you order your dress.
