Wedding Dress Sample Sale Shopping Tips
Samples are basically new dresses that stores have brought in for brides to try on. Most of the time they have never even left the store. When you find a sample you love that fits, you could leave the store with it! No waiting for shipping, no additional tariff charges, just a lovely discounted wedding gown ready for your seamstress to hem and bustle.
Purchasing a sample usually have stipulations that will vary from store to store. Policies, such as making monthly payments or payment collection options, the opportunity for a full refund, full returns or credits, etc. will be on your contract.
Before signing, make sure to look at the dress over top to bottom, and underneath. Most all of Darianna® Bridal & Tuxedo’s sample gowns are in like-new condition; if some need a little love, they are priced way below the original price.
Most important: book early! These sale appointments fill up quickly so book early for the best selection.
Ready To Celebrate Our Bridal Sale In Style?
We have hundreds of gowns included in the sale. Let’s start with some of our favorite wedding dresses – a few ball gowns and some with intricate detail.
Ready Your Crinoline: Ball Gowns
If you’re looking for elegance, romance, and of course, drama, look no further than our sample ball gowns!
In this set of three, we’ve decided to feature three different unique looks, but these are only some of the designs our in-store ball gown rack boasts. If you’re looking for a whimsical, romantic feel in a dress, then our satin and tulle-based gowns are the ones for you!
This particular sample, our wonderful Serene Estella (C), is adorned with floral applique for a soft touch of nature.
Looking for a bit more sparkle? Look no further than Morilee Maritza (L), with jewel, pearl, and sequin detailing.
And for those looking for a sleek and classic look, we’ve got stunners such as Stella York 7711 (R) with a Mikado satin that seems to glow when worn.
From whimsical tulle, to classic pearls, to romantic lace, to glowing sparkles, our sample ball gowns have incredible variety in their unique and stunning designs.
Feast Your Eyes: Bridal Sale Gowns With Details
Here we feature a few of our show-stopping detailed gowns! No matter the silhouette, sometimes some stunning detail is what a dress needs to set itself apart from all the rest.
For some fitted and floral, beauties like Kitty Chen Ada (L) might be exactly what you want, with her flowers and vines stretching across the iconic silhouette.
For those who love lace, dresses such as Sophia Tolli Harley (C) might catch your eye. There’s more that meets the eye with her, with ornate applique set atop a layer of delicate lace. Layered designs such as these add a lot of dimension to a dress!
Finally, if fitted isn’t your style, an a-line dress like Madi Lane Sofia (R) could be the perfect fit for you! With a tulle skirt and soft sweetheart neckline, her beaded detailing enhances the floral and leaf-inspired motif, adding a hint of wonder to the whimsical design.
From ornate applique, to sparkling jewels, to shining pearls, to breathtaking beading, our sample detailed dresses are perfect for those looking to tell a story through their attire on their wedding day.
