This sleek Stella York sheath bridal gown was imagined and handcrafted to provide an exceptional fit. It’s made from breezy Tulle and corded Lace, and features a slimming Diamante beaded Tulle waist belt. The back of this bridal gown zips up under fabric-covered buttons. Inspired by the world’s hottest red carpet trends, this Stella York wedding dress is handcrafted with stunning details that stand the test of time. Moderately priced under $1000.
Do you solemnly swear to buy this dress? Before you whip out your wallet and get the gown of your dreams, you’ll have to sign a wedding dress contract (yes, it’s actually a thing -- and a really important one too).
So what is a wedding dress contract? Well, it’s a document you have to sign with the salon before buying a dress. Since they’re making this dress especially for you, it clearly outlines the details of your purchase. It will include the dress style, the color, the size, the delivery date and any alterations to the original design you’re requesting.
The first thing you’ll want to do is to read the fine print, just like you would any other legal document. We’ve seen wedding dress contracts that state the designer can make alterations to your dress without your consent, so make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into before you sign over your rights and hand over your money.
Also, double-check all the information on the salon/dressmaker's contract. If it contains incorrect information and you sign it, the fault is yours. You could end up getting the wrong wedding dress (or the wrong size or color) and there will be nothing you can do about it.
Depending on your dress and changes you might make to it, there may be extra charges added to your final amount. This is the time to get all these extras listed with the costs.
When you sign the contract, you’ll also need to leave a deposit for the dress. This can vary: Kleinfeld Bridal in New York City, for example, requires a 60 percent deposit to put in the order, and the remaining balance is due when the gown arrives from the designer.
Your contract should include all of the following information (don’t forget to double-check for both spelling and accuracy of details):

We have all heard of over-bearing relatives or friends attending a bridal
shopping appointment and causing chaos with their own opinions. Sometimes it is
a close relative, a close friend, and yes, sometimes a mother.....Well, now we
see it via reality TV on last night's episode of RHOBH.
Paris Hilton’s mother could not keep her thoughts to herself as she went
wedding dress shopping with her niece Brooke.
While Brooke’s mother Kim Richards and aunt Kyle Richards got teary-eyed over the
pretty blonde during their shopping trip, Kathy was less accommodating.
‘It’s very pretty, but I don’t see it as the wedding dress,’ she said when she saw
Brooke in her first dress.‘It looks more like black tie.’
Brooke, her mother and aunt looked stunned by the remarks and explained that
the wedding was supposed to be beach-themed.
Kathy acknowledged that her niece was unlikely to want anything formal with lace or a high neck,
but would not let her thoughts on the dress go unheard.
Speaking her mind: ‘It’s very pretty, but I don’t see it as the wedding dress,’
Kathy said when she saw Brooke in her first dress. ‘It looks more like black tie’
Critical eye: Paris Hilton’s mother, stood front and center
as she eschewed her opinions on Brooke’s wedding gowns
‘It’s very pretty but I don’t like it for you,’ she insisted.
‘There’s something that looks like a cocktail waitress.’
If I could send one reminder out there.....
This is the brides day, let her wear what she wants.
Brides, limit the amount of friends and family you want
to take with you. Once you purchase your gown we recommend a
'reveal bridal appointment'. Then you can invite your close friends
and family in to see your gown before your big day.
