Frequently Asked Questions
We highly recommend making an appointment to ensure that both a consultant and a dressing room are available for you. However, we understand that schedules can sometimes be unpredictable, so even a call the day before or the day of your visit can help us accommodate you. Please note that visiting on weekends without an appointment is generally not advised.
Please note that prom dress shopping does not require an appointment.
We understand that schedules can change, and we kindly ask that you notify us as soon as possible if you're unable to make your appointment. This helps us free up time, as we often have a waiting list for peak times. By informing us in advance, we can also assist in rescheduling your visit to a more convenient time. Please arrive on time for your appointment, as we may have other appointments scheduled after yours, and we want to be able to accommodate you!
Our Bridal collection ranges in size from 6-30 and in price from $900-$3,000+.
For Bridal Gowns, we require a deposit at the time of selection, and the balance is due within ten (10) days of the gown's shipment to the salon. If you procured the dress of your dreams from stock at the salon, you may opt to pay in full and leave with the gorgeous gown, or convenient layaway terms will be discussed with your consultant.
Our Mother of the Wedding attire lies between $300 and $1500+, and our in-store selection varies from size 8 to 30, with a concentration of 12 to 20. Our wide collection boasts designs from the world's leading designers, including Junie Leigh, Montage, Cameron Blake, Adriana Papell, and MGNY (Madeline Gardner New York).
$175- $400 is the price spectrum for bridesmaids and maids of honor. Our in-store collection encompasses sizes 6-24, with a majority focus on sizes 12-18. For bridesmaid dress selections, we request a 50% deposit at the time of order.
Suit/ Tux Rentals and Purchases
A traditional tuxedo/suit rental starts at $179, and a deposit is due at the time of selection. Additional wedding party members will be requested to pay a $50 deposit when forwarding their measurements; payment in full is due at the time of final fitting, days prior to the event.
Please keep in mind as we are an NH-based business, all our garments are tax-free.
Deposits and final payments may be paid by credit card or cash; checks are accepted at the time of ordering.
As wedding gowns are often individually created to the closest off-the-rack size, the time frame for creation is often 6-9 months. Some specific sizes, however, may already be in stock at the respective warehouse and can arrive much earlier.
The standard time frame for accessories, mothers dresses and bridesmaids is a little over 16 weeks. Many designers offer an option to place a rush on your selected garment for an additional fee. 125 Bridal will work with you to determine if a rush feature should be selected.
125 Bridal enjoys a closed concept format. After an initial meeting with your consultant at the
beginning of the appointment, your consultant will select from our impressive collection of the
world's leading designers. In certain circumstances should this not be the desired format,
special arrangements can be made for a personalised tour of our curated collection usually held
on weekdays.
Please note: Our website contains a feature to assist in determining what actual dresses are in stock or available for order. Please be advised that this can prove to be of assistance, but is not foolproof as it is not updated on a daily basis. Therefore, we could actually have many more gorgeous gowns in store that are not reflected on the website.
- Initial appointments typically last about an hour and a half (90 minutes).
- Our space accommodates approximately 4-5 guests for your appointment. Experience tells us
that often more than that can start to confuse a bride, and we want to zone in on her personal
priorities for the perfect gown. - No outside food or drink is permitted for the appointment. Our neighborhood does include a wide variety of restaurants to host an “after-gown” selection celebration. Water is allowed in the store.
Merchandise ordered directly through our website can be returned within 24 hours of receipt.
- Items purchased either off-the-rack or ordered are presented on an “all sales final” basis.
Some of our award-winning designers request that photographs of their newest collections not be taken. If you'd like a picture while trying on dresses, please inquire with your consultant if you’d like to take a picture of a gown to make sure it’s okay with the designer. We have made arrangements to allow photography of all gowns purchased so you can share images with photographers, makeup artists, etc.
As a premier source of wedding gowns, we strive to provide the most updated selection of gowns. A trunk show is an opportunity for brides to try on the latest offering from a designer not yet available across the United States. Trunk shows often range for about 10 days, so appointments are strongly encouraged. Many designers often offer discounts on their gowns during the scheduled trunk show.

We also offer complimentary garment pickup at these locations after your special day! It is advised that the initial appointment is with our expert staff and the couple getting married. Once all of the options are reviewed a file is created with the couples selections. Once achieved the members of your wedding part can get measured. We strongly recommend that these tasks are done at separate appointments, so that the first meeting can be focused on selecting the attire of your dream day.
