Hello and a warm welcome to La Fleur Bridal. We are delighted you are looking to visit us in the near future and would like to share with you what to expect from your visit.
Visits are by appointment whether you are looking for your wedding, your prom or your First Holy Communion and we ask you get in touch by phone or ‘contact us’ form to arrange this.
We also ask that should you no longer require the arranged appointment you let us know as soon as possible by telephoning us during our opening hours so we can release the date/time and potentially arrange for another client to visit in your place. Our work starts as soon as you make contact to book in for your appointment, not when you walk through our doors. By just not turning up we have lost time in prepping for your visit.

Appointments
Firstly we operate an appointment system and now more than ever it is important that we continue this in light of the recent Covid-19 events. We will be making appointments for any visit including collection of your gown. So if you haven’t already organised an appointment, click the link below to get in touch to make one.
Once you have contacted us either by our web link or telephone we will organise an appointment day and time suitable for yourself and guest(s). We will have a mini telephone consultation about your wedding to get a good idea of the styles of gowns you are looking for to prepare for your visit.
Booking in advance
We take appointments up to 4 weeks in advance, please use our contact us form or telephone us directly on 01616537003
Before your visit we will be in touch to confirm you are able to attend your appointment. If you or anyone in your household is unwell please re-arrange for another time.
Prior to your arrival all staff and public areas will be cleaned ready for your visit and we ask that you turn up at your allocated time not earlier to allow us time between appointments to do this.
During your appointment you and your guests will have sole use of our bridal studio. This ensures social interaction outside your party is at a minimum level making your experience here with us a private and personal affair. A member of our team will be allocated as your personal Bridal Stylist and will conduct your appointment, guiding you through the collection of gowns we have instore along with suggestions you may like to try from your consultation.
Our Bridal Studio is on the first floor accessed by stairs. This impacts the number of guests able to attend with the bride for health and safety reasons. Should you or any of your party be unable to use stairs please contact us in advance we can organise for your visit to be on the ground floor.
Once you have found your dream gown we will complete an order form with you. We will take measurements on the day so we can select the size of gown we need to order for you. Our collections don’t offer a made to measure service and so you may need a seamstress to do minor alterations to your gown (see below).
At this point a minimum 50% deposit is required and can be paid by Cash, Bank Tranfser, Debit or Credit card. (We don’t accept American Express or Diners Card). We can organise payment plans and these are all to be set up via bank accounts making regular payments to us. More information on this will be discussed at your appointment should you so wish.
It can take up to 9 months for your ordered gown to arrive. Once it does arrive we will press it and get in touch with you. At this point your final balance is due and you can decide whether to take your gown home or use our storage package priced at £35 and leave it with us until you need it for fittings.
We have the contact details of Seamstresses for those who don’t have a contact already. It is up to yourselves to contact them to look into what they offer in terms of service & pricing and decide for yourselves who you would like to use.
