Questions To Ask
- What lead time do you require for made-to-measure, RTW, or rental gowns, and what are the cutoff dates before my wedding?
- What is the total price range, what exactly is included in the base price, and which add-ons or rush fees could increase costs?
- What alterations are included, who performs them, and how will you handle weight changes close to the date?
- Can you meet my church or cultural requirements—for example modest coverage or Filipiniana elements—and provide sketches for approval?
- What are your policies for design changes, cancellations or postponements, refunds, and are these terms clearly stated in a signed contract with timelines and warranties?
