FAQ
How much is a booking fee?
FREE! We do not charge a booking fee at Silhouette Bridal Studio.
Do I need an appointment to try on dresses?
Appointments are highly recommended because we have one dressing room. Of course, if we have the availability, we will take a walk-in bride, but if we're already assisting another bride, we will ask to schedule you for another time. When in doubt, give us a call or shoot us a text at our store number ahead of time!
What should I bring to my appointment?
All you really need is yourself. We ask that you please wear underwear during your consultation, but bras, shapewear, etc are not always necessary. Bring them if you'd like! Other helpful things to bring are: inspiration photos, your wedding shoes if you have them, and a few friends/family members who'll support you!
How many people can I bring?
We can seat up to 6 comfortably, but give us a call if you're wanting to bring more than that. We always advise brides to select a just handful of their closest friends and/or family members so as to not overwhelm the bride with varying opinions being thrown her way. Trust us on this one!
What sizes do you offer?
We have dresses in stock ranging from sizes 00-30.
How much can I expect to spend on a wedding dress?
We carry dresses ranging from $75-$3,000, depending on the designer and style. The bulk of our dresses are between $900-$1300. We do offer layaways if it is more convenient for the bride! When budgeting for your dress, keep in mind most dresses will need some type of alteration (whether it be a bustle, hem, or shortening straps).
Do you offer alterations?
No, we do not have a seamstress on staff. However, we have a list of vetted seamstresses local to Great Falls we can refer you out to!
Do you carry prom dresses, tuxedo rentals, mother-of-the-bride dresses, etc.?
Nope! We've chosen to specialize in just all things bridal. However, we have partnered with a third party (Generation Tux) that provides tuxedo rental items that ship directly to you, with free shipping, free fabric swatches, and free at-home try-ons. No in-person fittings needed! They offer sizes in Big & Tall, and even children! Plus, with 5 paid tux rentals in your party, the groom gets his FREE! Please note, we do receive a commission for every tuxedo rental through Generation Tux. Just another way to support our small business! If you need help designing your groom's look, we have a binder of fabric swatches for you to peruse, and staff at our store who can help set you up! Please see the "Generation Tux" tab here on our website for more information. Other bridal party members (bridesmaids, mothers, flower girls, etc) should check out local businesses in downtown Great Falls, they'd be happy to help you!
