Consignment
The Full Story
Making the decision to part with your wedding dress may not be an easy one to make! You need to decide whether to leave your gown boxed up in the hopes that you can pass it along one day or you pass on the love now and let your dress be enjoyed while it is still stylish and current. One tip for those looking to consign their dresses, the newer and more sought-after styles will fetch better prices, so don’t hold out too long to consign if you want a good return.
**Please note, I do NOT outright purchase dresses - I am 100% consignment only**
What does it mean to put your dress on consignment?
You maintain ownership of your wedding dress while I showcase your gown for you.
We determine a fair price together based on a number of factors - as a very general rule, you can expect about a 30% return on your initial, pre-tax/alteration investment.
I will showcase your wedding dress for a minimum of 6 months up to one year.
When your wedding gown is sold, you will receive 55% of the selling price.
**Please note - there is a $50.00 administration fee charged to consign your dress which is paid when your dress is dropped off**
