FAQs
Do you need an appointment? Yes, this is a must! We are open by appointment only. This way we can ensure that you and your guests have the studio all to yourselves. The easiest way to book an appointment is by clicking on “book an appointment”. If your desired appointment time is not available please contact us at hello@sundayevebridal.com.au and we’ll see if we can accommodate your request or place you on our waitlist.
When should you start dress shopping? We recommend 9 months prior to your wedding date. This might seem excessive but when you take into consideration the way your dress is made #slowfashion, that it is made to order, in our designers’ very own studios as well as shipping, alterations and possible delays. This time gets eaten up real quick!
Need your dress sooner? We may be able to organise a rush order. It’s not ideal but for a fee some designers may be able to push your order up the queue.
Who can I bring? We want you to share your experience with your nearest and dearest but ask that you limit your guests to 2 or 3.
How does an appointment at Sunday Eve Bridal work? A booking fee of $50 (Saturday appointment) or $30 (weekday appointment) for your first fitting is payable which allows you and your guests to have the entire studio to yourselves. An initial fitting lasts 80 mins which gives you plenty of time to try on multiple styles, re-try your favourites and most importantly, finish that glass of champagne!
What should I bring to my appointment? Positive vibes and an open mind. Oh, and maybe worth putting on a pair of seamless nude undies and strapless bra. We also ask that you keep makeup to a minimum.
Do you offer returns or exchanges? Due to our pieces being made-to-order, we do not offer refunds or exchanges after 2 days of placing the order. To place an order, we will need a 50% deposit and the balance will be collected 60 days after your purchase. If you decide to cancel your order after 2 days we will be unable to offer a refund on your deposit.
Do you offer customisation or alterations? Yes! Many of our designers have lots of options to choose from to make your dress uniquely you and our stylists will walk you through all your choices during your appointment. We do not do alterations in house but can happily recommend some amazing local dressmakers to assist you. Please note any alterations are an additional cost to you.
What are the price range of our dresses and separates? Our dresses range from $3000-$8000 with the majority of our dresses between $4000 & $5000. Accessories run from $120-$500 and veils are from $250 upwards depending on the length and style.
What sizes are available to try? Our samples are AU10-12, but can be adjusted to fit sizes AU6-16. Each of our designers have their own sizing scale and can accommodate most sizes, as well as accommodating split sizing.
What is a Trunk Show? A trunk show is when we have designers gowns in store that are not part of our permanent collection. They’re usually only in store for a few days so make sure you book in early! Trunk shows are a great way to check out some amazing designers with limited exposure in Australia. A trunk show appointment goes the same way any other appointment would, you just get access to exclusive dresses.
Where are you located and is there parking available? Sunday Eve Bridal is located at 1/160 Flinders Street Paddington, NSW. 1 hour parking is available behind the studio on Selwyn Street and surrounding back streets. There are also limited 2 hour parking spots along Moore Park Road.
