Can you make the dress I have in mind?
Share your dream dress, inspiration and favourite details. Our South African bridal designers work with you on design, materials and fit to bring your vision to life. Tell us which elements you want to include so we can discuss your design together.
How much does a wedding dress cost?
The return option is R6 500: your dress is designed for you, worn for your wedding and returned afterwards. The keep option is up to R15 000, depending on materials. Your final quote is discussed with you around your design and material choices.
What happens to my dress after the wedding?
With A dress for your day, you return your custom-designed dress after the wedding. With A dress for always, you keep it. Ask us to confirm the practical return arrangements before choosing the return option.
How many consultations are there?
There are exactly three: Coffee & dress dreams, your coffee meet-and-greet; The Champagne Fitting, where adjustments and alterations can be made if necessary; and The aisle-ready moment, the final handoff.
Can adjustments be made at the fitting?
Yes. Adjustments and alterations can be made if necessary during your second consultation, The Champagne Fitting. Discuss any fit concerns with us at that stage.
What should I send with my enquiry?
Your name, contact details, wedding date if known, preferred dress option and a description of your dream dress. Add reference photographs and say which silhouette, neckline, sleeves or details you love.
When should I begin, and how do I arrange a consultation?
Contact the atelier with your wedding date and inspiration so we can discuss timing and consultation arrangements directly. Please confirm availability, lead time, payment terms and any return requirements with us before making plans.
Does the enquiry form send my details?
Yes. Your dress application and any inspiration photo are saved privately for the atelier, Venice is notified by email, and a warm confirmation with the next steps is sent straight to your inbox. Contact us on WhatsApp if you would like to discuss your dress sooner. Submitting does not reserve an appointment.
