COVID-19 RULES AND REGULATIONS

We’ve got you, girl. 

 

Planning a wedding during COVID-19 is tough and we are here to help you find your dress. It’s a crazy time and we have to put the following restrictions in place to protect our staff, you and your family/friends. We will be opening for appointments on June 2nd with limited hours. We will not be taking ANY bridesmaids appointments at this time. If a bridesmaid dress appointment is urgent (wedding this fall/winter), please contact us. 

 

DELICA BRIDAL COVID-19 RULES & REGULATIONS

 

Open by appointment only. No walk-ins! Our door will remain locked. When you arrive for your appointment, please call the store and we will let you in. There will only be allowed one “group” allowed in the store at a time. 

  • As of Feb 1, 2021 due to AHS regulations, we have been advised that brides can only bring TWO guests with them. This also applies to bridesmaids appointments.
  • Don’t be alarmed: we will be greeting you with a smile behind the mask that we are wearing. We also ask that you (and your guest) wear a mask. If you do not have one, we will supply you with one. We get it: it is weird, uncomfortable and far from the norm. For now, this is what we have to do in order to protect everyone.
  • We will be asking everyone to wash their hands when they arrive and when they leave.
  • No touching all of the dresses and accessories please!  If you would like to try on a dress, please let your consultant know and your consultant will pull the dress for you. If there are certain dresses that you know that you would like to try on before your appointment, please let us know so we can pre-pull these dresses for you. 
  • Maximum try-on of 6 gowns.
  • Appointments will be scheduled for 1 hour instead of 1.5 hours. This allows us time to clean the room and store in between appointments and disinfect the wedding gowns. 
  • At this time, there will be no celebratory champagne toast or drinks offered. As always, no outside beverages or food. 
  • The most obvious: if you have been travelling, are sick or have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19, please do not come in.

We thank you for all being so understanding. We always brag that we have the BEST brides. Things may feel a bit different when you come in, but we are going to do our best to still make sure that you get the experience that you deserve (all while maintaining social distancing!)

Business Not as Usual

As you already know, we have decided to temporarily close our doors due to the COVID-19 outbreak. We will return as soon as we believe it is safe for our employees, our brides and their families. We know its a challenging time right now and we get it, we are just as sad missing all of our brides! Business is not as usual, but we are still here to answer any questions you have, process orders, arrange drop offs, schedule alterations, or even just a be an ear to listen! Although our store is closed, we are trying to get creative with how we can stay connected with all of you. Please read below for some FAQ & updates on how we are operating during the pandemic.

 

Dress Timelines

If you have already ordered your dress or bridesmaid dress, it is still on track to be delivered on time, without any major delays. Our designers production teams have been working around the clock to ensure that your orders will arrive on time. If anything changes with dress timelines, we will let you know, as we want to be as transparent as we can be through this process.

For those of you who are looking to order your dress, designers have quoted us 6-7 months for production + 2 months for alterations. Some of our designers are able to accommodate rushes at this time, so if your wedding is sooner, please reach out to us to discuss your options.

Sample Dresses

For those who are getting married this fall and are ballin’ on a budget, we would recommend checking out our sample sale! Follow our sample sale Instagram account @delicabridalsamplesale to browse through our collection of sample dresses. We are selling these sample gowns off the rack all for $499. Please email us (info@delicabridal.com) or message us on Instagram if you’re interested in more details.

Say Yes

For those who have been in store before and are ready to commit to buying your dress (or bridesmaid dresses), we are still taking orders remotely. If we already have your measurements on file, great!

We are available to drop off you bridal gown to your home and then schedule a virtual try on to answer any questions you might have about the fit/alterations. During your virtual try on, you can expect to have a one-on-one video call with one of our owners, We will be there virtually to see how the dress fits and discuss what alterations are needed. For those brides who live out of town, don’t fret! We will ship your dress to you and we will get in touch to schedule a virtual try-on. At this time our recommended seamstress is still taking appointments.

Delica Bridal Sample Sale 2019

You know that dress that you’ve been eyeing but haven’t been able to commit because of the price? Well now is your chance! On Sunday, February 3rd we will be hosting our most anticipated event of the year: our sample sale! You can shop selected designer gowns for a fraction of the price! Save thousands of dollars and find the dress of your dreams at a price that you can justify. Gowns will be up to 70% OFF and are sold as is. Here are the deats:

What: Delica Bridal Annual Sample Sale
Where: Delica Bridal
When: Sunday, February 3rd. Doors open at 12pm. It is first come, first served (no appointments). So be prepared to come early and wait in line for the dress that you have your heart set on.

 

How it works: 

When you are in line, you will be given a number. Your number will determine when it is your turn to try on dresses. There will only be THREE brides allowed to try on dresses at one time. You are allocated 30 minutes to try on dresses and can only pull THREE dresses at a time. If you do not find anything within your time allotment, you are welcome to take a new number and give the sale another try.

In order to determine if a sample sale is for you, here are some things to consider:

Are you able to make decisions quickly or do you need lots of opinions and/or mom’s approval before making your final choice? Sample sales are a fast paced and busy environment. If you find your dress you will be paying for it in full and taking it with you that day. We also recommend limiting your guests to no more than 2 when shopping during a sample sale.

Are you a street size 6-10 and average height? Keep in mind bridal sizing is different than your street size and you will likely have to size up in bridal. Most of our dresses available in our sample sale are bridal size 10 or 12.

Is there a particular dress that you absolutely have to try on or have? It’s worth doing some research ahead of time so you can go in with some styles or silhouettes in mind! And if there’s something you have your eye on, come early! At our other sample sales we have had a line up of excited brides waiting to try on.

INSIDER TIP: if you haven’t already, follow our sample sale account on Instagram (@delicabridalsamplesale). We will be posting sneak peeks of dresses leading up to the sale! In the mean time, here is a first look at a few of the dresses included in the sale!

 

See you there babes! xoxo

Introducing Laudae’s 2018 Collection

Vancouver’s conscious bridal label, LAUDAE is excited to announce the release of its third bridal collection : Quaintrelle.

This eight piece collection was named after and designed to represent a woman who lives a passionate, curated, and conscious life. In other words, Quaintrelle is the modern + inspired bride.  This collection is made for the woman who wants to feel invincible on her wedding day. While dresses like the Bloem are the brand’s response to brides wanting a combination of past favourites, other gowns feature a new (and much anticipated) fabric: the ribbed crêpe. As seen on the Bryant, Adderley, and Kloof gowns, this forgiving fabric provides a smooth shape and subtle flare to an otherwise easy knockout. Romantic elements are infused throughout the collection with the addition of new delicate laces and intimate touches like hand cut trims. Quaintrelle is LAUDAE’s most innovative and dynamic collection to date.

The best part is, some of these gowns will be arriving at Delica very soon and we couldn’t be more excited for you to check them out! We’ll also be hosting a Laudae Trunk Show, October 19th-21st, where the whole collection will be available to try-on. This is an event you won’t want to miss!

February 2018 Local Love Recap
