Yes, we host an ongoing bridal sample sale within our boutique! For brides with close wedding dates or those looking for a luxury look for less, we feature a dedicated selection of sample designer gowns available to take home the same day at heavily discounted price points.

It is completely normal for your wedding dress size to be different than your standard retail clothing size. Bridal sizing typically runs smaller than everyday streetwear, meaning most brides will order a gown that is 1 to 2 sizes larger than their usual dress size. Our expert stylists will take precise measurements of your bust, waist, and hips to match you with the perfect size on the designer's specific size chart.

We want every bride to feel confident and beautiful during their appointment. Becker's Bridal Boutique stocks an inclusive range of in-store sample gowns, focusing heavily on sizes 8 through 16 for try-ons.

To ensure your gown fits like a glove, professional tailoring is essential. While we specialize in the expert styling and ordering of your gown, we will connect you with our trusted network of highly experienced Toronto bridal seamstresses. Our recommended tailors specialize in delicate bridal fabrics, structure adjustments, custom bustles, and hem styling.

This is a very common question! Wedding dresses are intentionally constructed with generous seam allowances, meaning a professional bridal tailor can easily take a dress in by up to two sizes if you lose weight. If you gain weight or are expecting, dresses can also be let out slightly or converted into a beautiful corset-backed gown to provide extra breathing room.

We recommend fitting your dress tailoring into your timeline early. Your first alteration fitting should ideally take place 6 to 10 weeks prior to your wedding date, with a final fitting scheduled 1 to 2 weeks before the big day. Make sure to bring your exact wedding shoes and chosen bridal undergarments to every fitting to guarantee the hemline and bodice fit perfectly.
