Frequently Asked Q's
Planning
We advise that you wear nude or lightly coloured underwear and a strapless bra if you have one, but don’t worry too much. All our of dresses have bust support already in the construction, but if you feel more confident keeping your bra on that is of course totally fine. The most important thing is that you are comfortable. It can be useful to bring a pair of shoes of a similar height to what you will be wearing on your wedding day, just to give you the same posture. We also keep a range of bridal shoes for you to try on with your dress, so do not worry if you do not have any! If you are planning to wear your hair up on the day, it’s helpful to have it up for your appointment.
We politely request that make up is kept minimal if possible and that fake tan is not worn, both transfer onto our sample dresses and are hard to remove.
Whilst if you feel ready it is never too early, we suggest at least 12 months before your wedding. This allows enough time for you to have fun trying on dresses, for your chosen dress to be delivered(this can take up to 6 months)to the boutique and for it to be altered. Don’t worry if you are short on time, we can arrange rush orders for an extra cost. We also have an excellent selection of “off the peg” ex sample sale dresses available to take away the same day.
You can book online on the Book Your Appointments page, with real time availability and instant confirmation.

We work very closely with Tanya, she is a very experienced independent bridal seamstress. We look to commence fitting appointments approximately 3 months before your wedding day, but we can be totally flexible if you’ve less time or are losing weight, we work with you to findthe right timescale.We are total perfectionists.
Fittings go on until your dress is fitting you absolutely perfectly. Bespoke changes to dresses are also a speciality as well as personalised veils. The cost of your alternations is always on top of your dress price. We will give you a rough estimate ahead of ordering your dress and Tanya will confirm upon meeting you in Blush at your first fitting appointment. Payment is made direct to Tanya for her work.
We require a 50% deposit to place your order, then the remaining 50% is required when your dress arrives in Blush and you come in for your exciting first try on. We accept payments via card or cash but not cheques unfortunately.
