Lillette's Brides

How far in advance did you go to get your wedding dress? My Future SIL (Brother's Fiance) is getting married this November and still has not gotten her dress! I looked on their site and it said they recommend 9-12 months before the wedding, and of course they are closed Monday and Wednesday so I can't call and ask Chat Icon so I will call tomorrow

Depends on the designer. Lillette's is wonderful! I highly highly recommend them. If you give them the time constraints they'll be able to tell you which designer would be best to order from.

Re: Lillette's Brides

You're asking when to order? ALL salons will tell you to order 9-12 months in advance. Is it necessary? Not usually, but it's safer not to chance it. If I were her, I'd order ASAP. I ordered my dress about 9 months to the day (not from Lillette's) and they urged me to put a rush order on it. I would not though and my dress arrived in 3 months. Chances are she'll be fine, but I've seen brides order dresses 2 years in advance and still have it delayed coming in.

i got my dress there and ordered it 6 months in advance and had no problems
i highly recommend them, they are fantastic! tell her to make an appt with Gerri, she is so sweet and really knows what works for every body type. she also is not pushy at all.

I ordered mine almost exactly a year before my wedding. I was told it would take 9 months, but it actually came in within 6.

Its not the store that matters its the designer. Each one is different.

I did not use that bridal salon. But my designer had my dress in 4mons.

Re: Lillette's Brides

Thank you all Chat Icon

Called this morning and they basically told me the same thing. That there are designers who take longer than others but is not a problem at all. But she needs to make an appointment asap. Let's just hope future SIL listens to me!

Re: Lillette's Brides

I got my BM dresses there. For a May wedding, we went and ordered them in September. So... 8 months. They were delivered in March and that's when we started the fittings.

Re: Lillette's Brides

I think I ordered about 9 months in advance. Something about some designers are closed the whole month of August? I seem to remember that.
