1. Gather Inspiration
Every custom dress begins with a vision. For some brides, this vision is clear. They’ve imagined every detail. Other brides may feel like they only know what they don’t like – all the dresses they’ve already tried.

2. Share Your Vision
Once you’ve gathered your inspiration, share it with us. When you contact Perla Bridal, we’ll provide you with your own Custom Dress Specialist. Like a stylist, they will work to build a clear understanding of your style and how to incorporate your body feature preferences and any practicalities into your dress design.
3. Review Your Custom Designs
With the help of your Custom Dress Specialist, our design team will create three custom dress sketches based on the inspiration you shared. Each sketch will bring your ideas to life in different way. You choose the design you like best.
4. Finalize Details
Once you’ve chosen a design, we find the finest fabric choices for your dress style. Then we send you our Magic Box filled with swatches of these fabrics, so you can see and feel what they’re like. You choose the exact fabrics and colors you want, and we begin handcrafting your dress.
5. Expect Your Dream Dress
Our team will spend about 16 weeks handcrafting every detail of your custom gown. Once your dress is ready, you can receive it at our boutiques or have it shipped directly to you. It should fit perfectly to your measurements. If you need any slight adjustments, we’ll guide you through the alteration process.
