Bridal Gown Shopping--Book Your Appointment

Hoping to maximize your time and experience at a bridal shop? While many shops do not require you make an appointment, it is wise to do so. If you leave it to chance, you may arrive at the shop while store clerks are busy with other customers and your experience may end up being unsatisfactory, even though the shop may have everything you’re looking for.

Booking an appointment beforehand will assure the salespeople will be dedicated to helping you! Most shops will set aside at least one hour, sometimes two, to focus on meeting your specific needs. To use your time most efficiently, try to have an idea of what you’re looking for before you come to your appointment. You may even want to mention these details to the salesperson who books your appointment, so they can already have some dresses set aside for you to try on before you even enter through the front doors.

Some questions the clerks may ask you are:
1-What kind of dresses do you prefer: ball gown, mermaid, etc.?
2-Are you interested in couture bridal gowns, current trends, or older styles?
3-Is there anything you are specifically looking for in a wedding dress?
4-What is your ideal price range?
5-Are there other needs we can take care of for you while you’re here?

If the salesperson doesn’t ask for all of this information, don’t hesitate to offer it to them. The more they know, the better they will be able to assist you and the better your buying experience will be.

Kathleen’s Bridal Shop welcomes walk-ins, happy to do what they can to help whoever walks through their doors; however, they also accept appointments, so if you can plan ahead, call for an appointment first to assure there will be a salesperson waiting specifically for you. That way, your buying experience will be optimal. And don’t stress out if you run out of time--a friendly assistant will schedule a time for you to return to finish filling your important shopping needs if you don’t get it all done in one day.
