The Long Awaited Wedding Dress

Many brides try on sample wedding dresses and then order a new dress in their proper size. On average, it takes 3 - 4 months for a new wedding dress to be made by a bridal gown designer. Some designers keep an inventory of dresses and make them available immediately, but most wedding dresses have a wait to be made.

That's why you will hear people advising brides to start looking for their wedding dress 8 - 12 months before her wedding. This gives a cushion for time to look and alterations.
