When will my dress arrive?

Dresses at Blueberry take between 3 and 7 months depending on the designer. Most of these can be rushed for a fee. There is also a chance that the designer has your dress, in your size, in their hanging stock and we can get those in about two weeks. Don't forget about our Off The Rack options of which you can take home today.



What about alterations?

Most every bride will need some alterations. You will want the most important dress of your life to fit your shape perfectly. They will take in, let out, adjust strap lengths, do a hem, do a bustle and whatever tweeking needs to be done in order for the dress to fit you like a glove. We have trusted alterations specialists that we will recommend to you. Alterations are not included in the purchase of the dress.



What is your payment and refund policy?

To order the dress, we require half of the total. The other half is due when the dress comes in. If you take an Off The Rack dress, full payment is required. All sales are final with no exceptions. Please inspect your items before leaving the store.



Why was my card charged $50.00?

In order to cut down on 'no show' and cancelled appoinments, Blueberry has implimented a cancellation policy. If you cancel within 24 hours of your scheduled appointment - or - do not show for your appointment, you will be charged with the card you entered upon scheduling the appointment. Similar to last-minute-cancelling your doctor's appointment, we could have had another bride in your spot. Thank you for understanding. We charge $50 for the Say YES Bridal Appointment (Bride + 4). This fun 1 hour appointment is right for you if you are ready to find your dream dress. This appointment extends up to another hour afterwards for measurements, celebration toasts, photobooth pictures, paperwork and payment. This fee covers wear and tear on the dresses, cleaning fees, sewing fees, and covers your consultant's time. Of course, the $50 fee is applied to your dress sale when you say YES!



I can't make it to my appointment, what now?

You will receive an automated email after scheduling and also the day before your appointment as a reminder. If you need to cancel, you can reply to the email. If you cancel within 24 hours, your card will be charged $50.00.



Are you by appointment only?

Yes! We do private appointments that focus only on you! Walk-ins are available only when the Open sign is on.



What sizes do you carry at Blueberry?

We realize not everyone is the same size and shape. We want every bride to be able to try on a handful of dresses and feel beautiful. Bridal sizing is different from street wear and every designer has their own sizing chart. Generally though, bridal sizing is a couple of sizes smaller than street wear. We carry bridal size 6 to 28, but can order up to size 32 for most of our designers.



I love a good discount, does Blueberry offer any?

Yes! If you say yes to the dress on your first visit, you get $150 towards an accessory like a veil or jewelry or a headpiece or robes. This is for ordered wedding gowns, not Off The Rack, which are already discounted gowns. Also, ask about a discount on a wedding preservation kit.



What types of items does Blueberry carry?

We carry bridal gowns and a variety of veils, jewelry and headpieces. Items for your bridesmaids such as silk robes or sticky boobs. And don't forget about a steamer for your dress. We carry those as well. At this time, we do not carry bridesmaids dresses, flower girl dresses, tuxes, MOB dresses or consignment dresses.



Do you offer wedding gown preservation?

Yes! We use a 100 year old company that will clean and preserve your dress and ship it right back to you. Ask about discounts when you say yes to the dress.
