Common bridal salon terms include the following:
1. All sales are final.
Most bridal salons provide all sales are final. No refunds or exchanges.
2. Alterations.
Rarely are alterations included in the “Total Price” noted on an agreement, and alterations on a bridal gown can be hefty - $850.00 is not unusual!

50% of the price of the gown, without alterations tends to be the typical deposit, although gowns purchased off the floor are often required to be paid in full. “Balance must be paid in full within 30 days of gown arriving in store or before alterations are started.”. Final Payment rarely can be made by check. Most shops provide that sales are final so that means even if you cancel your wedding, you are responsible for final payment.
4. Dye Lots and Floor samples.

5. Delivery Dates.
Gowns are usually ordered many months in advance make sure you understand when it will be delivered, how you will notice and how quickly you need to pick it up after being notified.

Be careful of extra costs that are not included in your “Total price” which may include charges you might not consider such as delivery from the designer to the store:
“There is an additional fee of $100 per wedding gown for shipping, handling, and insurance from the designer to The Shop.”
7. Non-Delivery by the Designer.
What happens if the gown’s designer doesn’t deliver the dress to the shop? Most shops will include that they are not responsible, but will include some mechanism for replacement:
