Shop for your Gown First!

If you need a pair of shoes you can fully expect to shop in a store and buy what you want, when you want, in the size and color you want.  If you are hungry you can go to any restaurant or fast food place and get lunch now.  But when you are shopping for your wedding gown, the most important and memorable item of clothing you will ever wear, you must plan ahead a little more.

The other day we sold a dress to a bride to be.  We had the dress in ivory but she wanted it in white.  No problem, we can order it.  When we called our supplier we were told that the gown would not ship to us until the second week of February 2012.  Yes, that is right, nearly 16 weeks from now.  Why that's crazy you might say.  Well, maybe it is but that is how it works.  Some of our collections are available in 6 to 10 weeks on a special order but occasionally, a popular style or one with extra special and intricate detail will require more time.

After all, this is a very important dress.  Doesn't it make sense that you would plan ahead?

At The Gallery by Lynette we have been serving bridal families for more than 30 years and have every service you would need to outfit your bridal party perfectly.  It begins with the dress and no matter when or where you are getting married the most important thing to consider is that you want to look and feel your most beautiful on your wedding day.  Because you don't wear a wedding dress often you might need some professional help finding the right one.  At The Gallery by Lynette our consultants are experienced in the basic silhouettes and which ones look best on your body type.  Once you know your best silhouette they can help you select the right details and fabrics from the hundreds of gowns we have in stock.  We don't have to use high pressure selling.  That is for when a store can't give you exactly what you want.  We know what is available and our design department can change details and make your gown fit you like a glove.  We are very different from other bridal shops.


Shop for your gown as soon as you know you are getting married even if you don't have a ring or a date.  The longer you allow before your wedding, the more choices you will have and the better the outcome especially if something has to be tweaked.  Don't worry if you plan to lose weight.  We can allow for that and you couldn't lose so much weight that we can't alter your gown perfectly.


Don't listen to some of the so called " bridal store experts" who tell you it's too early to shop.  Don't listen to them when they tell you what you should like as you desperately try to get them to listen to what you want.  It's your dream and your day.  Come to The Gallery by Lynette and lose the stress.

When you purchase your gown at The Gallery by Lynette you may be eligible for our new Diamond Savings card that will save you more than $900  in free stuff and discounts on the things you will need anyway such as half priced bridal jewelry and $50 off your veil.  Give us a call today 801-773-7435   Click here for  hours.  More info at www.lynettes.com
