More ways to find a designer gown within your budget
Clearance is not one single type of dress. The current selection may include different kinds of designer bridal inventory, with availability changing as gowns are sold.
New & In-Stock Gowns
Selected designer dresses already in store may be reduced to make room for incoming collections.
Sample Wedding Dresses
Boutique sample gowns may have been tried on and are priced according to the dress, condition and current promotion.
Off-the-Rack Dresses
Purchase from current store inventory instead of waiting for a new gown to be ordered from the designer.
Need a Wedding Dress Fast?
If your wedding is approaching and there may not be enough time for a traditional special order, start with gowns already available in store. Best for Bride carries a large selection of in-stock, sample, clearance and off-the-rack wedding dresses that can be purchased from current inventory. Availability varies by store, size and style.
Begin with current inventory

Share your date first
Tell your consultant your wedding date before the appointment so the selection can focus on gowns that may work with your timeline.
Ask what is available now
Current store inventory provides options without waiting for a new gown to be produced. Alteration requirements and timing must be confirmed separately.

What if my wedding is only 6-8 weeks away?

Selected sample wedding dresses may be reduced, but the price depends on the gown, condition and current promotion. The exact price and availability are confirmed in store.
Can an off-the-rack wedding dress still be altered?
