Looking the part

Whilst the wedding dress factory outlet is not a bridal boutique, we do try our very best to give you as much customer service as possible.

In order to help you visualise the complete look for the big day, we do have a small selection of shoes, tiaras, veils and corsages for you to try on should you feel the need to fully ‘dress up’! We do not sell these items at the moment but we hope to stock some of these essential bridal accessories in the near future.

Trying a wedding dress on is one thing, but being able to see the entire outfit can make a difference to the overall impact of how you will look on the big day. Using our accessories you will quickly be able to get a good impression of how beautiful you will look and give you some ideas of how you wish to complement your wedding dress.

We are not as salubrious as a bridal boutique and this is reflected in the price of the dresses but we will do our utmost to make your visit to the factory outlet a very special one.

Wedding Dress Sizes & Alterations

Some useful information you will need to know about choosing the size of your dress and making arrangements for alterations;

Firstly, it is important to understand that at The Wedding Dress Factory Outlet, we work very differently to boutiques. Basically, what we have in stock is what we have, unlike bridal boutiques who will order a specific size that is nearest to you with delivery usually in around 16 weeks. The advantage of the way we work is that you know that wedding dress you try on is the dress you will have, although the downside is that we don’t hold all wedding dresses in all sizes. That’s where a good seamstress comes in…

Even if the dress you find with us does not fit perfectly straight away, there is still hope. A good seamstress will have no problem with sizing a dress up or down to fit you. Depending upon the fabric type and the seam allowance in the dress, it is possible to increase a bridal dress by 1 or 2 sizes, so if you are a size 14 and find a size 10 or 12 dress that you love, it could still be possible to have the dress altered to fit.

We can recommend a great seamstress who we have worked with for many years. She is not employed by us and therefore you would need to make your own arrangements to book in with her at a time to suit you both. Alternatively, you can choose to appoint your own seamstress, which may be easier if you are travelling some distance to purchase your wedding dress from us.

Some other useful tips:

The underwear you choose to have on the day can affect the fit of the dress, so make sure you wear the correct underwear when you have your final fitting.

Don’t have the length of the dress altered until you have chosen your shoes.

A large proportion of our wedding dresses have trains, but if you prefer not to have a train, remember that most competent seamstresses would be able to remove it.

Don’t have your final fitting too early on as your weight could fluctuate with the stress of organising the wedding!! Please make sure you have a time booked in with a seamstress early on as the good ones will get booked up quickly, particularly in the spring and summer months.

Please see our website http://weddingdress-factoryoutlet.co.uk and we look forward to helping you find your perfect dress.

Wedding Dress Styles

The Wedding Dress Factory Outlet has over 1,500 hundred designer wedding dresses and eveningwear in stock.

We have most styles of wedding dress to choose from including, large tulle dresses with beautifully embroided bodices for grand occasions to simple & elegant designs for a more subtle bride and everything in-between!

Our wedding dresses are available in a wide variety of fabrics including silk tafetta, silk dupion, tulle, poly taffeta, luxurious satin, chiffon and organza. The type of fabric you choose will give the wedding dress a different look as will the colour. There are some fabulous colours available, particularly in the silk fabrics and this again will give the wedding dress a whole different look and feel.

Wedding dress styles, fabrics and colours are very individual choice but with the amount of selection we have available, it is very easy to try as many dresses on as you wish and work out the most suitable style for you.

Please visit us if you are looking to buy a designer wedding dress and more importantly if you want to save a significant amount of money as well.

The Wedding Dress Factory Outlet building is located in Burbage, near Hinckley in Leicestershire.

Ordinarily, most brides will only travel a relatively short distance to their local bridal boutique. However, due to the significant savings we are offering and the amount of stock we have, we have brides and bridesmaids travelling in from the obvious local places such as Hinckley, Nuneaton, Coventry, Rugby, Market Harborough and Lutterworth but also as far as Birmingham, Derby, Corby, Northampton, Oxford, Nottingham, Milton Keynes, Tamworth, Warwick, Leicester and even London.

It is always a good idea to drop us an email first to see if we have the size and style of wedding dress that you are looking for, but in most instances, a little extra travel has proved to be of considerable benefit to brides.

Please email us on info@weddingdress-factoryoutlet.co.uk if you have any further questions.

Winter Weddings

While it seems that summer is just getting started, for those brides planning winter weddings now is a good time to start thinking about your dress. Here are a few helpful pointers;

Winter is a great time of year to consider wearing a coloured bridal gown as rich colours work beautifully against the dim early evening light. Think about deep reds, subtle golds and, for the brave, rich chocolate.

Consider the type of venue you are getting married in. Churches can be very cold in the winter months and you don’t want to be shivering as you walk down the aisle! You may want to consider a gorgeous long coat to match your gown, or simply a bolero jacket or wrap. Fake fur wraps look gorgeous on photos. If your ceremony and reception are being held in the same venue, you don’t necessarily need to go to the expenditure of a jacket or wrap to keep warm as you are likely to be inside for the majority of the day.

Consider the kind of fabric that your dress will be made from. Some silks may be marked by raindrops so if you are planning on having a silk wedding dress when the risk of rain is high, make sure that your dress is fully protected from the weather – some brides even go to the trouble of covering themselves in bin liners to protect their dress from the car to the ceremony if the weather is really bad!

Choosing your ideal dress can be difficult enough without having to consider some of these practicalities but you can be assured that all of the staff at The Wedding Dress Factory Outlet will be able to give you knowledgeable and honest advice to assist you with choosing your wedding gown.

We look forward to seeing you at The Wedding Dress Factory Outlet.
