Every bride has questions. We are here to help you make the right choice.
What does purchasing a sample gown mean?
Our sample gowns have had their moment in various boutiques, ready to be tried on by brides like you, but they’ve never been worn down the aisle! In fact, some of our dresses are brand new, straight from the designer. Every gown is discounted based on its condition, giving you the luxury of a designer dress at a fraction of the cost.
By purchasing a sample gown, you skip the long ordering process and get to take home your dream dress the very same day! You’ll pay in full, allowing you to head straight into alterations and get one step closer to your big day. No wait, just love at first try-on!
Do I need to make an appointment?
Yes, we are an appointment-only boutique! Booking an appointment guarantees you’ll have dedicated time with one of our expert stylists and the chance to try on all your favorite styles.

What is your price range?
How long are the appointments?
Our appointments are designed to give you the perfect amount of time to explore our collection and find the one. Each appointment lasts 90 minutes, allowing your stylist to get to know your vision, suggest the best options, and ensure you feel confident in your choice. It’s the perfect balance of time to relax, try on gowns, and focus on finding the dress that feels just right!
What sizes do you carry? What if I’m not a sample size?
Most of our inventory features bridal sizes 10 and 12, which typically correspond to sizes 4, 6, or 8 in ready-to-wear. However, we also carry a curated selection of gowns in sizes 18 to 24. As we like to say, come as you are, and let us handle the rest! Rest assured; we’ll never sell you a gown that can’t be tailored to fit beautifully. Your stylist will guide you through how the dress will be altered to suit your shape and answer any questions during your appointment.
Will my experience at Aisle Chic be different than other bridal salons?
Yes, your experience at Aisle Chic will be a bit different—and we think in the best way possible! As a sample boutique, we offer high-end bridal gowns at incredible prices, available for you to take home right away. No waiting months for orders! Our stylists will guide you through a carefully curated selection of dresses, ensuring you find the one that fits your vision, your style, and your budget. Plus, you’ll still get the personalized, intimate experience you’d expect from a regular boutique—just with the added bonus of walking out with your dream dress in hand!
How often do you get new inventory?
We receive new gowns about twice a month, with most of our inventory coming straight from our sister store, Bella Bianca Bridal Couture! If you don’t find the one during your appointment, don’t worry—we’ll connect with Bella Bianca to see what fresh beauties we can bring in just for you. But when you do fall in love with a gown, it’s important to say “yes” because our off-the-rack pieces can go quickly. Once it’s gone, it’s gone! We want to make sure you don’t miss out on your perfect dress!
A Few Key Details to Keep In Mind
1
We LOVE first-time appointment brides + we know how nerve wracking it can be to try on dresses for the first time. Just remember – we are #TEAMBRIDE! We’ll help you get all the jitters out before trying on gowns, so you can have the most magical experience ever.
2
We find it best for our brides to wear the undergarments they envision themselves wearing the day of the wedding to their appointment; I.e. spanx, seamless panties, etc.
3
Though we loving celebrating with a glass of bubbly, we cannot have any champagne in the boutique. We know accidents can happen + because we sell our gowns off-the-rack, we want to ensure that the gowns stay in their original condition.
4
We have a team of stylists that are passionate + over the moon to help you find the dress of your dreams! Just remember – with an off-the-rack store, our gowns move very fast, so the dress you love, but walk away from, might by not here by the time you come back.
