The Wedding Collective operates on a By Appointment basis only. By booking a consultation, we can focus on providing a personal and exceptional bridal experience. At this time, walk-ins are not permitted but feel free to give us a call if you are interested in a same-day consultation.

You can book your private bridal consultation here on our website on the Book A Fitting page.

Our consultations are R480 for an hour and a half fitting. You may try on as many dresses as you like during this time, we recommend trying on no more than 8 dresses as too many options can become overwhelming.

Our 2nd consultations are free on weekdays and R250 on Saturdays to secure the appointment, the cost will be deducted from your wedding dress order.

Yes please, our online booking system will show all the available time slots for the date that you choose to book.

After your time slot selection you will be taken to on online secure payment gateway.

Once payment has been made, your booking is confirmed and you will receive an invoice via email.

We can accommodate the bride plus a maximum of 3 guests at her wedding dress fitting.

When it comes to choosing a dress, more is not always merrier! Invite guests who understand your style, give supportive feedback, and will help you look your best. Hearing too many opinions can be overwhelming for even the most confident of brides, so keep the guest list short and sweet.

We will discuss your wedding style, vibe and wedding dress ideas before you start trying on wedding dresses.

Your budget and dress requirements will also be discussed. Recommendations will be made regarding fit, silhouette, fabric type and dress colour during your fitting.

Once you find your dream wedding dress at The Wedding Collective you will receive a quote and place your order with a 60% deposit payment. Once received an appointment is scheduled to take your measurements to order your wedding dress in the correct size.

Our exclusive designer wedding dress collections start at R20,000 and goes up to R45,000 to buy with the average prices R22,000 – R35,000.

We are excited to announce that we now offer a Rental Option on selected wedding dresses! Don’t wait too long before your wedding date to book your Rental wedding dress with us as the dress may be booked out by another bride for that specific wedding date.

Once you have said YES to the dress a 60% non-refundable deposit is required upon placement of your wedding dress order.

The balance of your dress is payable once it is on its way to SA for imported wedding dresses or ready for collection for Wishbone & Ivory dresses.

We have a standard lead time of 6 months. We suggest starting your wedding dress shopping at least 8 months before your wedding date in order to give yourself enough time to choose and order your perfect wedding dress.

Depending on your timeline you can still order a wedding dress but with an added Rush Fee of R2,500 or you can buy or rent a sample wedding dress off the rack.

We have helped brides in less than a week with a wedding dress, but leaving it so late is not recommended!
