Your First Appointment Starts With a Budget Range and a Short List

If you hike the Bonneville Shoreline Trail, you know a good plan makes the day go better. Your first dress appointment works the same way. Two simple things help you get the most from your visit.

Bring these with you:

• Your budget range. Write down the most you want to spend.
• Three saved styles. Screenshots or pins work great.

Your three styles show us what catches your eye. They also help you spot a neckline or silhouette you keep picking.

Planning a morning hike first? Book a later slot so you have time to go home and change. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may shorten your appointment.

Modest and Temple-Ready Gowns for Bear Canyon Brides

If you're planning a temple sealing, your dress needs to meet a few clear guidelines. We carry Mon Cheri Modest, a line of modest gowns with sleeves.

The Church's General Handbook, section 27.3.2.6, sets the standard for a bride's dress in the temple. It should be white and modest in design and fabric, with no elaborate decoration. Your dress also needs:

• Long or three-quarter sleeves
• Coverage of the temple garment
• Lining under any sheer fabric
• No train, unless you can pin it up or remove it for the ceremony

Tell your stylist you need a temple-ready gown, or text us at 801-572-2519 before your visit. Your stylist can point you to styles with sleeves and fuller coverage. You can also see our temple-ready gowns. If you're unsure about a dress, you can call the temple and ask.

Alpine and Three Falls Brides Find the Drive Worth It

If you live in Alpine, near Three Falls or Fort Canyon Road, you're on the Utah County side. Our Draper shop sits on the other side of the mountain. One well-planned visit can still cover a lot of ground.

Your 90-minute appointment gives you time to try on many styles in a single trip. You can compare designer gowns side by side before you decide. That means fewer drives back and forth.

Bring your wedding date to your appointment. Your stylist can show you gowns that fit your timeline. Made-to-order gowns take longer to arrive. If your date is closer, ask about our Quick Ship gowns.

We lay out the drive from Alpine in the next section. You can also see the other communities we serve on our locations page.
