Helpful information.

  • Yes please! Bloom is by-appointment only to ensure that each bride gets a private suite, a dedicated stylist and ample time to try on all the beautiful gowns you have your eye on.

  • Whoever you’d like to join you - we just ask that you keep it to three guests. If you can’t quite choose only three then please flick us an email to discuss other appointment options.

  • We suggest starting to have appointments about 12 months out and making decisions 8-10 months out from your wedding date.

    We know it sounds like you’ll be making decisions way too far out but here’s why - all of our gowns are made-to-order and can take anywhere from 6-8 months to produce. Once your gown has arrived, our recommendation is to have up to 2 months for alterations to ensure that perfect fit!

    On a shorter timeline? Don’t stress! Rush orders are always an option so reach out to us directly so we can chat through your options!

  • Whatever makes you feel comfortable! Nude underwear is ideal and you’re welcome to bring your own heels or borrow a pair from us. Please try to keep makeup to a minimum and definitely book that spray tan appointment after you see us!

  • Our in-studio samples range from AU 8-14, but our stylists can adjust them during your appointment to work for sizes AU 4-16.

  • Firstly, congratulations and welcome to the Bloom fam!

    We do need a 50% deposit up front to get your gown into production, with the balance due 90 days later.

    Payment plans are available on a case-by-case basis.

APPOINTMENTS AT BLOOM

  • We’ve got a few! You can view them all on our Designer page for details on styles, pricing, and lead times.

  • A trunk show is an exclusive viewing of a collection that we don’t carry as part of our permanent collection.

    These collections are usually in our studio for a very limited time but are a fantastic way to discover designers that have limited exposure in Australia.

    Trunk show appointments run for 90 minutes, and you can also try on gowns from our permanent collection during that time.

  • A pop-up is when Bloom hits the road to bring a designer’s collection to your state.

    Due to limited availability, pop-up appointments are only 45 minutes.

  • Of course!

  • Our gowns range from around $7000 - $23,000 with the majority of our gowns sitting between $9000 - $12,000.

    For more designer-specific pricing, check out our Designer page or reach out via email if you’d like pricing for a gown.

  • All of our designers work on a made-to-order basis - this means that we take your measurements and determine your closest size based on that designers’ size chart.

    We’re super transparent with sizing and will always include you in any sizing decisions since you know your body best!

    If necessary, split sizing and made-to-measure options are also available for certain designers.

  • Almost always! Since gowns are ordered in your closest size, small adjustments (like hemming) are usually needed for the perfect fit.

  • Sometimes! Your stylist will let you know what’s possible during your appointment, but always ask if you have a vision - we love helping make your dress uniquely yours.

  • Due to our gowns being made-to-order, we can’t offer refunds or exchanges.

  • For specific information about YPRES sizing, returns and exchanges, please visit our YPRES page.

THE CURATED BLOOM COLLECTION

  • Ode is our consignment service featuring previously-owned or retired samples. Some gowns may be brand-new but the majority have either been tried on or worn before. All are available to be taken home same day!

  • You can - just book an Ode appointment! Please list all the Ode gowns you’re interested in trying and we’ll be sure to let you know if they sell prior to your appointment.

    If you’re interested in trying on gowns from our permanent collections as well as some Ode pieces, please book an initial appointment instead.

  • We can put you in touch with our partner tailor to discuss any alterations necessary if you love a gown that isn’t your size. As a general rule, gowns can be taken in or out at least a size easily.

  • If you purchased your gown from Bloom, we’d love to help resell it for you. At the moment, we only consign gowns from Bloom brides.

  • Amazing - she’s all yours! All Ode gowns must be paid for in full and all sales are final.
