Your ideal time to order is between 12-14 months from your wedding date. Made-to-order gowns take between 8-10 months to arrive in store. We suggest leaving up to 4 months to allow for alterations prior to your wedding date. This is especially true right now as we are in our busiest season! This is the ideal, not the absolute. Keep in mind, most designers will require a rush fee with less than 5 months prior to the event date. If you have any concerns about your timeline, be sure to chat with your stylist, as they will be able to provide you with the best, up-to-date information!

While most of our floor samples are between a bridal size 8-12, we do carry samples up to size 20. We have some clips, slips and tricks that give you the most accurate representation to your best suited size. In addition, our designers are extremely versatile and happy to work with us to ensure your gown is ordered closest to your ideal fit. It is important to us that our designers can offer versatility in sizing for all bodies. Most of our designers can range from a size 0-32.

B&R is considered a “Stockist” not a “Retailer”. We are a by-appointment only boutique, with a showroom of sample inventory. This means, all items purchased are considered “Made to Order” at individual customer request. Therefore, all purchases are non-refundable and non-exchangeable after a purchase has been made.

Any appointments (including follow up bookings) that are cancelled within less than 24 hours, including forfeited appointments or no shows, will be charged an additional fee to the appointment booking of $100.00 + GST.

There's always lots of parking in our area! There is street parking along 10th Ave or the neighbouring streets, as well as a paid lot across the street from us! Once you arrive, take the elevator up to the second floor. Check out our Contact Page for a detailed Google map.

Even with made-to-order gowns, you will require alterations to your gown once it arrives. Although we do measure you, we order based on standard size charts provided by the designer and our bodies can fluctuate, change or just require some extra tailoring to get that perfect fit for your day! Even in the case that your gown is ordered “made-to-measure”, without your body being with the designer while they cut the dress, there will still be tweaking necessary! While we don't do in house alterations at B&R, we work very closely with extremely talented and reputable specialists in the city.
