WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU INTO OUR BOUTIQUE AND CANNOT WAIT TO MAKE YOUR WEDDING DRESS DREAM A REALITY. 

TO ENSURE THAT YOUR EXPERIENCE IS PERFECT FROM START TO FINISH, HERE ARE A FEW WORDS OF ADVICE FOR MAKING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR TIME AT CLARICE’S BRIDAL.

DO I NEED AN APPOINTMENT?

Yes. To keep each bride the center of attention, our shop is by appointment only. Appointments are usually an hour and a half. We are happy to accommodate your timing preferences, but please call first to schedule. You may also book online by clicking the BOOK APPOINTMENT tab above.  For your bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and/or flower girl appointments please give us a call to schedule.

WHAT TO EXPECT

From the moment you step through our door, you'll have our undivided attention. We will get to know you, your style, and your preference for all the small details. 

OUR GOWNS

We carry over 15 bridal designers and are confident we can find the perfect one for you. While we can accommodate any budget with our buy it now selection of wedding gowns, our average price range is $1,200-$4,000.   

WHEN TO START DRESS SHOPPING

 After booking your venue, the wedding gown is usually the next big step in bringing your wedding vision to life. for brides. We recommend shopping at least 12 months before your wedding. It can take up to 6 months to 9 months for dresses to arrive in store after ordering. Add another 2-3 months for alterations to achieve the perfect fit. While some designers can meet in-a-pinch deadlines, giving yourself enough time will save you from rush fees and stress. 

WHAT TO BRING

The quick list: a nude strapless bra and nude undies. These items will play a key role in helping you envision yourself on your wedding day.

WHO TO BRING

We recommend you choose one to four special loved ones who know your personality and your personal style best, and who will listen to your opinion without overstating theirs. To keep your vision in focus, we recommend the guest list to be no more than eight.

CAN I BRING BEVERAGES AND FOOD TO MY APPOINTMENT?

You are welcome to bring water, white wine, or clear sparkling beverages to your appointment, but other beverages and food are strongly encouraged to be left outside the salon.

HOW WE SIZE

Once you have found the dress, our trained bridal consultants will take your measurements. The measurements taken include bust, waist, and hips.  *Measurements are not taken until order is ready to be placed to assure truest fit* Most of our designers make their dresses in standard sizing with a standard size chart. We order the size that is closest to your measurements. To give your dress the final perfect fit, alternations are most likely needed. A different size may be requested, however with doing this you must sign off acknowledging this was your choice, and not based on your measurements.. The cost of alterations is not included. 

FITTINGS

While we do not provide in-house alterations, we have various preferred local seamstresses who we recommend to our brides. Clarice’s is not affiliated with any specific seamstress. The final decision is yours. In choosing to separate our bridal boutique from an in-house seamstress, this will ultimately help lower alterations costs for our brides.

RETURN POLICY

All gowns are custom ordered. Once an order is placed the designers do not except returns. Therefore, all sales are final on purchases, payments, and special orders.
