Due to the seasonality and delicate nature of our merchandise we do not accept returns, allow exchanges or issue refunds of any kind for online sales. When purchasing merchandise from our website you will be asked to read, understand and agree to the return policy as follows: We do not accept returns, allow exchanges or issue refunds of any kind. If you are at all concerned about the size or fit of a gown please reach out to us at 309-341-0842 or email info@sabrinasbridal.com and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have before you place your order.

Appointments are recommended but not required. Scheduling an appointment allows us to prepare for arrival and make sure that we have a dressing room and stylist available to help you find your dream dress.

Our in-store samples range from 4-26, and can be ordered in sizes ranging from 0-32. Please be aware that each bridal designer has their own size chart, with many designers having sizing that runs smaller then standard ready to wear clothing. Don’t worry, we will be there to help you get the best fit based off of each designer’s size chart.

First, think about your budget.  Be honest with us about how much you want to spend.  Being real with your budget helps us and you.  Our goal is to help you find your dream dress within your budget… if you aren’t honest with yourself or with us about what your budget it you risk being heartbroken by falling in love with something that exceeds your budget.

 

Second, have an idea of what type of gown you are looking for but be open minded.  What looks good on a model or on Pinterest may not turn out to be the perfect look for you.  Consider all styles and don’t just judge a dress by the hanger… sometimes you might be surprised and the dress you didn’t think you liked on the hanger could end up being your dream dress. Trust us, this has happened many times!   

 

Lastly, and most importantly plan to have fun!  This is one of the happiest times in your life.  Bring a couple people you love and plan to make memories of a lifetime.

The standard length on long dresses is 58-61 inches.

We strive to process and ship all orders as soon as possible, processing times will vary based on each individual order placed due to the delicate nature of our products.
