💐Graceful Gowns Bridal Lounge💐
Hello and welcome to our page,
We are a "New" family run business, based in the Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire Moorlands area. Specialising in affordable ex-sample wedding gowns.
Regularly updating our stock of beautiful gowns, we can help you find the dress of your dreams, for a FRACTION of the retail cost! We strive to keep our prices as low as possible, but will never compromise on quality!
Be sure to like and follow our page to stay tuned in with what we have to offer! We pride ourselves in sourcing up-to-date and current design's, working very closely with our suppliers. If you have a favourite design in mind, then do not hesitate to message us with the details? We will do our utmost in sourcing your chosen gown.
We specialise in purchasing ex-sample gowns, from well known and established bridal stores, and bridal suppliers. All of which are expert's in their fields. With this in mind, it is important to consider the gowns may have slight flaws. For example, the possibility of a few missing sequins, small marks to the hem or train (these cannot be seen when worn), and very subtle pulls to the fabric.
All flaws (if any) will be documented at the time of advertising. Be rest assured however, that ALL of our beautiful gowns remain in excellent condition. You will not be disappointed!
We understand that getting married is such a special occasion! Therefore, We aim to offer a professional service, providing each and everyone of our bride's with the very best experience possible.
As we are a home based business, we are able to keep our overhead cost's to a minimum. This allows us to offer our gowns at a FRACTION of the retail cost expected, when purchasing from high street boutiques.
Although predominantly an online business, we are able to offer a 1-2-1 service for our local brides, wishing to sit down, and discuss their gown of choice, or simply to book a fitting appointment.
Each gown will be measured prior to advertising. We will document the UK sizing by which the gown measurement's suggest. It is a well known fact, that wedding gowns do not match high street clothing sizing, hence the importance of measuring accurately by hand. Therefore, Please do not be alarmed if you notice a different sized tag, inside of your chosen gown!
It is imperative to be fully aware of the gowns description, and measurement's prior to making your purchase. We will always endeavour to answer any question's or queries, aiming to respond within a 24 hr period.
NO question is too small!
Please Note:
Once purchased, ALL gowns are non returnable
Measuring Tips -
🪡Bust - Please note this is not as simple as your 'bra size'
Please measure your bust circumference by putting the measure tape around your back and over the fullest part of your bust. It is also important to measure whilst wearing a none padded bra.
🪡Waist -
Measure to the narrowest part of your waist. Exhale before you take this measurement, by placing the measuring tape around your back and meet at the front.
🪡Hips -
The fullest part of your hips, measure your circumference by placing the tape around your back and meet to the front of your hips.
🪡Length -
Length is measured from the underarm to the hem. Please note, this could be knee height or floor height, depending on the gown of choice? Place the tape measure where the dress would sit under your armpit and measure to the knee or floor.
💰Payment and Delivery -
All deliveries will be by courier. Your gown will be insured, and you will be provided with the tracking information. It is essential to observe for any damage on receipt of the parcel. If any damage is noted, you must inform the courier immediately.
Prior to despatch, your gown will be placed into a protective garment bag, and despatched in waterproof postal bags. This will provide that little extra protection from potential damage.
On receipt of your parcel, carefully unpack, and hang your gown onto a wooden coat hanger, away from direct sunlight. This will allow for any creases whilst in transit, to diminish.
Payment is by bank transfer or through
PayPal goods & services. You must check your PayPal account has the correct delivery address details BEFORE you make payment.
If you wish to collect your gown, payment is only by cash, bank transfer or PayPal friends and family, given the difference in PayPal protection cover for collected items.
All dresses can be reserved with a £50 NON REFUNDABLE deposit. The remainder of the balance must be paid in full within 28 days. Your gown will be despatched once full payment has been received.
Payment plans can be arranged, up to a maximum of 6 months, for those wishing to spread the cost. Please message us to discuss option's available?
We look forward to being a part of what will be the most memorable day of your life 💕
