Mine was a deposit and you pay the rest once the dress arrives.

Mine was similar. I had to pay a 50% deposit and pay the rest when it was picked up

The shop I'm buying my dress from has said 50% deposit then pay rest once it's picked up but also offered to make a payment plan if required, I would speak to the people in the shop to see what they would offer or if they would do a payment plan for you xxx

I’m paying in 4 instalments, 25% at a time, however they won’t order until I’ve paid 50% just ask as each shop is different but you’ll probably find that most will do their best to help you out x

I’m from plymouth and every bridal shop I went into allowed monthly payment plan. Some wanted a certain amount for a deposit and a few was happy to take anything for a deposit. I put down £50 deposit on my dress that cost just under £900 also my veil that cost £200. They just won’t order the dress until 50% of the dress was paid up and that had to be paid up to 6 months before the wedding so they can order the dress in then dress had to be fully paid before you collected your dress x

The shop I bought from had a 50% deposit and then I can pay the rest as and when I want/can as long as it's paid by the time I collect. X

I bought mine from wed2be so had to pay it up front. But my parents lovingly bought my dream dress so I didn’t have to worry about finding the money up front. Most shops are different though I believe. I think it depends whether you buy off the rack or from a boutique. Hope this helps you. Have a lovely wedding fay xxxx
