Ordering a custom wedding dress should feel exciting, not complicated. At Her Shop, you can choose a bridal style you love, provide your measurements and customization preferences, and have your gown made with your individual details in mind.
Follow the steps below to understand how our custom wedding dress process works.
1. Choose Your Wedding Dress
Start by exploring our wedding dress collection and selecting the style that best reflects your bridal vision.
Whether you love a romantic A-line gown, a dramatic ball gown, a fitted mermaid silhouette, a modest long-sleeve dress, or a modern bridal style, choose the design that comes closest to the look you want.
2. Choose Your Color and Custom Details
Many Her Shop wedding dresses can be customized beyond standard sizing. Depending on the design, available options may include color, neckline, sleeves, train length, back style, and other bridal details.
If you would like to request a modification, include clear details when placing your order. You may also contact us before ordering if you would like us to confirm whether a particular change can be made.
Because every gown is different, customization options may vary by design.
3. Take Accurate Measurements
Accurate measurements are one of the most important parts of ordering a made-to-measure wedding dress.
We strongly recommend having your measurements taken by a professional while wearing the undergarments you plan to wear with your dress whenever possible.
Take each measurement carefully and avoid choosing measurements based only on your usual clothing size. Bridal sizing and proportions can vary.
4. Place Your Custom Order
When you are ready to order, select the appropriate size or custom-size option available on the product page.
Enter your measurements, preferred color, and customization requests in the order notes when possible.
If you prefer, you may also send your measurements and customization details to info@hershop.com after placing your order. Please include your order number so we can match the information to your purchase.
5. We Review Your Custom Details
Your custom measurements and requested details are reviewed before production begins.
If additional information or clarification is needed, our team may contact you to confirm the details.
For more complex customization requests, we recommend contacting us before placing your order so we can review the design with you.
6. Your Wedding Dress Is Made for You
Once your order details are confirmed, your gown moves into production. Because custom wedding dresses are made according to individual measurements and design requirements, production takes longer than purchasing a ready-made garment.
Production time can vary depending on the gown and the complexity of the customization. We strongly recommend ordering well in advance of your wedding date and contacting us before ordering if you are working with a specific deadline.
Why Choose a Made-to-Measure Wedding Dress?
A made-to-measure wedding dress offers a more personalized alternative to relying only on standard bridal sizing.
Your gown can be created using your individual measurements, and selected designs may also allow you to personalize details such as sleeves, neckline, color, train, or other bridal features.
Made-to-measure sizing can help create a more personalized fit, but minor alterations may still be needed after your dress arrives. Every body and fit preference is different, and bridal alterations are a normal part of achieving the final wedding-day fit.
Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Wedding Dresses
Can every Her Shop wedding dress be customized?
Many of our wedding dresses offer custom sizing or customization options, but the available changes depend on the individual design. Please review the product details or contact us if you have a specific request.
Can I change the sleeves, neckline, color, or train?
These changes may be possible on selected gowns. Because construction varies from one dress to another, please contact us with the product link and your requested changes so we can review them before you order.
Should I have my measurements taken professionally?
Yes, whenever possible. Accurate measurements are extremely important for a custom-made gown, and having another person or a professional take them can help reduce measuring errors.
Can I send my measurements after placing my order?
Yes. You can email your measurements to info@hershop.com after placing your order. Please include your order number.
Will a made-to-measure dress require alterations?
It is still possible. Made-to-measure gowns are created using the measurements you provide, but small alterations may sometimes be necessary to achieve your preferred final fit, especially if your measurements change before the wedding.
