As long as a bridal gown is in stock at the manufacturers warehouse, we can have your dress delievered in about 1-2 weeks. Most of our designers keep a great selection of gowns in stock and ready to ship immediately. If by chance your dream dress is not in stock, estimated delivery time is around 3-6 months, depeding on the designer and style.
