Where are we located?

Great Question! Our forever home is still 16 E Chambers St and is currently undergoing a renovation so that our space is even bigger and better! While we are renovating though, you can find us at 104 S Main St, Cleburne TX, 76033. You can find a map here that makes it easier for you to find our current space.

Bridal Appointments

Bridal Appointments are preferred. Saturdays are often the busiest day of the week for bridal shops. If this is the only day you can shop, please make your appointment well in advance. We will respect the time set for your appointment and be prepared to start right on time. Appointments can run as long as 90 minutes, but most Brides are able to say yes to their perfect dress in less than an hour. Book Your Appointment Here.

When do I need to make my appointment to try on wedding gowns?

Call to schedule an appointment a minimum of one to two weeks in advance. You will have a Bridal Consultant dedicated specifically to you and a reserved Bridal Suite. Keep in mind that it often takes 6 - 9 months to create many wedding gowns. You should begin shopping for your gown 9 - 12 months in advance of the wedding to allow enough time for alterations once the gown arrives.

I’m getting married in less than 4 months – is it too late to get the perfect wedding gown?

No, it’s not too late, but every second counts! Your options still include buying one of the gowns we have in the store and working with your Consultant to determine which designers can meet your time frame for a special order gown. Don’t worry! We are experts at helping you find your dress!

How long is my appointment?

Bridal gown appointments are 90 minutes long. The store is normally closed on Sunday except for special events and VIB appointments. Appointments can be scheduled on some Sundays. So, if you are only available on a Sunday, call and let us see how we may be able to help. Appointments start and end at the time scheduled. Be sure to arrive on time to get the most benefit. Please call us as soon as possible if you need to change a time or reschedule. Book Your Bridal Appointment Here.

Who should I bring?

Bring people you trust. Don't invite a crowd of people with you. Two people—your mom and a close friend—are plenty. Three or more will make decision-making stressful and difficult, especially if they're offering conflicting opinions. Bring the closest friend or family member whose opinion you value and who knows you well and with whom you want to share the experience of buying your gown. Bringing more than 3 others can take the focus off of you. Due to our space we ask that you limit guest to three or fewer. If you need more than three people involved we ask that you call and book your appointment so that we can schedule your group accordingly.

Should I get a sitter for the kids?

Yes. We love children; however, when shopping for your gown you need to be able to focus and concentrate without distractions. A bridal boutique has many fragile and easily damaged items. It is not a fun place for kids, and they will get bored quickly. A bridal salon is also not a safe place for children due to loose pins and other hazards.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Bring pictures of dresses you’ve seen on our website, in magazines, or on the internet. Bring an open mind: don’t be surprised if you find “the dress” on your first visit to Brides and Beyond (most Brides do!). If you have any special accessories that you plan to wear on your big day – bring those too! (Grandmother’s Pearls?)

Keep an open mind

Take some time to look through our preferred styles. Pin the dress styles you like and let us follow you. This also helps us be prepared when you arrive. You can print your favorite styles and bring them with you too. Knowing when, where and the time of day your wedding will take place will help your Bridal Consultant suggest ideal options for your day. Begin shopping for your gown early. It is best to allow plenty of time to order your gown and have time for alterations.

What size gowns are available for me to try on?

We service Brides and all shapes and sizes. Our gowns have a wide range from size 4 to size 32w. Most samples are sized from 8 to 16 but we service all Brides and all shapes and sizes.

Can I complete my entire look in one appointment?

Yes! Many brides find their dress on their first visit to Brides and Beyond, and find all their accessories (veils, headpieces, shoes, jewelry) on their first visit.

Will I be able to see gowns at Brides and Beyond that are different from what I've seen everywhere else?

Yes! We have our own private line with a wide selection of exclusives designs that cater to any taste.

How far in advance do I need to buy my gown?

Special-ordering wedding gowns often takes 6 - 9 months. We strongly recommend start the process of ordering your gown at least 9 months prior to your wedding date. This allows plenty of time for alterations.

What is the best way to handle alterations?

We offer in house alterations, we have over 25 years of experience and pay close attention to every detail. Wedding gowns often have more structural items than regular apparel. Having someone with bridal experience is important. Book Your Alterations Appointment Here.

How do I pay for my gown?

We accept Discover, MasterCard, and Visa, as well as cash and checks. If you are ordering a special-order gown, a 60% deposit is paid at the time you order your gown. When the gown arrives it is carefully inspected. Once it passes our quality control, we’ll contact you to schedule a first try on. At that point the remaining balance is paid. Many brides make payments along the way. If you’ve requested that we ship your gown out of state, your balance must be paid for in full before it can be shipped. We do not accept checks for the final payment.

Will you ship my gown out of state for me?

Yes! We can ship a dress anywhere you need it. Shipping fees apply.

What is a rush order?

If your wedding date is sooner than the time needed by the designer to have a special order gown made, we consult with the designer about placing a rush order for an additional fee. In this instance, your gown will arrive based on the dates provided by the designer. Details will be outlined in your agreement.
