Say yes in Ottawa.
The designers you already love, priced in Canadian dollars, at a size-inclusive boutique about an hour from the New York border.
Every price is in Canadian dollars.
Our gowns are priced for the Canadian market. Paying with a US card, you're charged in CAD and your bank converts it, so the same gown can cost noticeably less in US dollars.
US-dollar figures are estimates at today's exchange rate. Your card issuer sets the final rate and may add a foreign transaction fee, so check with them before you come.
Names you know. Ottawa's largest selection.

A day trip from upstate New York.
We're in Kanata, in Ottawa's west end, with free parking on site. Evening appointments on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays make it easy to drive up after work.
Approximate driving times.
Three things to know before you come.
Book ahead
We're appointment only, so a stylist and a private suite are ready when you arrive. Weekdays are quieter if you're bringing a bigger group.
Pay in Canadian dollars
US credit and debit cards work just like at home. Ask your bank about foreign transaction fees, or use a card without them.
Plan on two trips
The first is to find your dress and say yes, and then we order it for you. The second is to pick it up once it arrives at our boutique.
Every body, every bride.
Our stylists help you work through silhouettes, fabrics and designers to find a dress that feels completely like you. Shopping for your wedding dress should be as memorable as the dress itself.

Good to know.
When should I start shopping?
Most brides start about a year before the wedding. Gowns typically take four to six months to arrive, and you'll want time for alterations, so we recommend choosing your dress at least eight months before your date.
Are the prices really in Canadian dollars?
Yes. Every price you see in the boutique is in CAD, and that's what your card is charged. Your bank converts it to US dollars at its own rate.
What should I bring to my appointment?
Light or nude-coloured undergarments; a strapless bra if you prefer one. Our pedestal simulates heels, so you don't need special shoes. Bring the people whose opinion matters most so you can say yes on the day.
What happens after I order?
Your gown is made to order and arrives at our Kanata boutique, usually in four to six months. We'll let you know when it's in so you can come back and pick it up. We don't ship gowns. For alterations, we recommend a seamstress close to home, so every fitting is an easy trip.
What if I need to cancel?
Please let us know at least 24 hours ahead. Missed appointments, or ones cancelled with less notice, are charged a $50 fee.
Do you have Mother of the Bride dresses too?
We do, from about CA$600 to CA$1,200. Samples run from size 6 to 22 and can be ordered in sizes 0–32, and they take about 4 to 8 weeks to arrive. Book a Mother of the Bride appointment.
