Frequently Asked Questions

Amanda Ritchey Bridal Loft offers a traditional bridal shopping experience of 1.5 hours with a 4 guest maximum. This is our most common appointment and a wonderful choice for those who don't wish to bring a lot of guests. It is the perfect choice and a lovely intimate experience with those who are closest to you! Our VIP experience allows you a larger space to indulge in luxury with your loved ones. Essentially, we are reserving half of our showroom for your party. This means you will not have another bride next to you which allows for a more exclusive appointment. The VIP experience also includes special perks to make your visit extra special. This appointment allows 6 to 8 guests to join you for this very special experience.

At AR Bridal Loft, we understand that your bridal shopping experience is a memorable occasion best shared with loved ones. While our VIP experience offers amenities such as , refreshments, and extra space and a larger guest count, we do have options for brides who prefer not to opt for this package. Traditional appointments typically accommodate the bride plus 3 to 4 guests. However, if you'd like to bring more guests without selecting the VIP package, please contact us in advance, and we will do our best to accommodate your group, ensuring you have a delightful and supportive time while selecting your dream gown. We can usually accomodate larger groups during the week. Additionally, we offer weekday evening appointments for those who work during normal business hours. Just let us know how we can best assist you and we will work hard to make it happen for you.

At AR Bridal Loft, we are dedicated to providing a comprehensive and unforgettable bridal shopping experience. Our boutique offers an extensive range of bridal gowns, from classic and vintage to modern and chic, catering to various styles and preferences. We also provide personalized consultations where our experienced stylists work closely with you to select the perfect dress that complements your vision. Additionally, we offer alteration services through our independent contractors to ensure that your gown fits flawlessly. Beyond gowns, we carry a curated selection of bridal accessories, including veils, tiaras, and jewelry, to complete your look. Our commitment is to make your bridal journey seamless and joyful, ensuring you feel special and confident on your big day.

At AR Bridal Loft, our goal is to make your bridal appointment as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. We recommend wearing nude or light-colored undergarments to avoid any visible lines or colors under the dresses. A strapless bra or adhesive cups can be very helpful, especially when trying on gowns with various necklines. We also suggest bringing along any accessories you plan to wear on your wedding day, as they can give you a better idea of your final look. It is not necessary to bring your shoes as it makes it difficult to get in and out of the gowns without damaging them. If you're unsure about what to bring, just contact our team before your appointment, and we'll be happy to offer more specific advice based on the dresses you're interested in.
