At Ivory & Main, we understand that finding the perfect wedding dress is a milestone in your bridal journey. While custom orders and made-to-measure gowns are a dream for many, purchasing a wedding dress off-the-rack during our sample sale presents many benefits that can make your bridal shopping experience even more delightful. Here are some compelling reasons to consider saying "yes" to an off-the-rack wedding dress:


1. Immediate Gratification


When you purchase a wedding dress off-the-rack, you get to take it home the same day. No waiting for months for your dress to arrive! This is perfect for brides with tight timelines or those who simply can’t wait to see their dream dress hanging in their closet.


2. Significant Savings


Sample sales offer incredible discounts on high-quality designer dresses. You can save a substantial amount on your wedding dress, allowing you to allocate more of your budget to other aspects of your wedding or perhaps splurge on a honeymoon. (or buy yourself a second dress for your reception 😉). You can get a dress that is normally $2500-4000 for below $1500!


3. Eco-Friendly Choice


Buying off-the-rack is an environmentally friendly option. It reduces the demand for new fabric production and minimizes waste, making your wedding dress choice a more sustainable one!


4. Perfect for Last-Minute Brides


Whether your engagement was a whirlwind romance or you’ve decided to move your wedding date up, off-the-rack dresses are perfect for brides who need their dress in a shorter time frame. Avoid the stress of waiting and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with having your dress in hand.


5. Try Before You Buy


One of the biggest advantages of off-the-rack shopping is the ability to see, touch, and try on the exact dress you will be wearing on your wedding day. This ensures that you know exactly how it fits and looks on you, with no surprises.


6. Unique Finds


Sample sales often feature unique styles and discontinued designs that you won’t find anywhere else. This means you could discover a one-of-a-kind gown that perfectly matches your vision, ensuring a truly unique bridal look.


7. Incredible Variety


Our sample sale includes a wide range of styles, sizes (22-32), and designers (Maggie Sottero, Essence of Australia, Watters, and more)! This variety allows you to explore different looks and find the dress that truly makes you feel like a bride. Plus, at Ivory & Main, we specialize in plus-size bridal wear, ensuring that our collection is inclusive and celebrates every body type.


8. Professional Alteration & Custom Design Services


Even though you’re buying off-the-rack, our professional alteration and custom design services ensure that your dress fits you like a glove and matches your vision perfectly. Our experienced seamstresses can tailor the dress to your exact measurements, ensuring you look and feel your best on your big day.
