How long does it take for a wedding gown once it is ordered?


Q: How long does it take for a wedding gown once it is ordered?

A: We wish there was one, easy answer, but the length of time from when you order a dress to when it arrives depends on a few factors.

Factors to consider when ordering a wedding dress with Bridals By Jodi include:
Delivery times vary by designer. If you are on a tight time line or are concerned about timing, please check with our wedding consultants on which designers will be able to meet your schedule.

Some dresses may not be in stock with our vendor which will require additional time for a dress to be delivered. We can check inventories nationally to see if your dress is available before you place an order.

On average, most wedding gowns take 4 to 6 months to arrive in our shop once they are ordered. For brides with an immediate need, we can work to find a wedding gown in your size that is currently in stock. If you need a wedding gown ASAP, we can work with our vendor to locate a dress in your size at a location in the United States and often are able to have it delivered within a week. There are additional "rush fees" for these services.


Are there additional fees for a rush job if I need a dress sooner?


Q: Are there additional fees for a rush job if I need a dress sooner?

A: A "rush fee" allows your dress to "cut" the line at the factory. The factory actually stops production and puts your gown at the head of the line. Bridals By Jodi does not make any profit off "rush fees".

Which wedding dress designers can I find at Bridals by Jodi?


Q: Which wedding dress designers can I find at Bridals by Jodi?

A: Bridals by Jodi is pleased to offer gown designers Allure, Maggie Sottero, Morilee, and Eddy K. We do not carry bridesmaid, mother of the bride, flower girl, or prom dresses at this time.
