Do you sell bridesmaid dresses and/or formal wear? Yes, we have a wide range of evening gowns that are perfect for bridesmaid dresses, mother-of-the-bride/groom dresses, and any formal event (e.g., prom dresses).
Can a client purchase a sample dress from the store ("off the rack")? Yes, if a client's wedding date does not allot enough time for an order to be placed, a sample dress may be purchased from our store.
Can a client order a dress from your store if they tried on the sample gown elsewhere? Yes, absolutely.
How long does it take to order in a gown? On average, a bridal gown can take six to eight months to arrive at our store. Bridesmaid dresses and formal wear usually arrive anywhere within four to six months of purchase. Rush orders can be placed depending on a client's wedding/event timeline or a client may purchase a dress directly from our store.
What happens once I place my order for a dress? The waiting game begins! On average, a wedding dress will take 6-8 months to arrive and evening gowns will take 4-6 months. Once your dress has arrived at our store, we will call you to book your first fitting appointment. During this fitting, we'll pin your dress for necessary alterations. We ask that brides bring their wedding shoes with them to the first fitting to account for length adjustments. Following the first fitting, a second fitting appointment will often be scheduled closer to your wedding date to determine if any further changes are required. After that, your dress will be wrapped up and ready to go!
Did you move locations, again? Yes! Bridal Fashion Fraire was previously located 8108 Yonge Street in Thornhill until May 27, 2023. We are now located at 6068A Yonge Street. We are a quick drive or bus ride from Yonge & Finch.
How do I get to your store by transit? From Finch Station (the top station on Line 1 YUS), take the 53A, 53B, 60A, or 97F to Patricia Ave (we are across the street). Click here for a handy Google Maps link with directions.
