Frequently Asked Questions

We highly recommend making an appointment to ensure that both a consultant and a dressing room are available for you. However, we understand that schedules can sometimes be unpredictable, so even a call the day before or the day of your visit can help us accommodate you. Please note that visiting on weekends without an appointment is generally not advised

 

Please note that prom dress shopping does not require an appointment.

We understand that schedules can change, and we kindly ask that you notify us as soon as possible if you're unable to make your appointment. This helps us free up time, as we often have a waiting list for peak times. By informing us in advance, we can also assist in rescheduling your visit to a more convenient time. Please arrive on time for your appointment, as we may have other appointments scheduled after yours and we want to be able to accommodate you!

Suit/ Tux Rentals and Purchases


A classic tuxedo rental starts at $179, and a deposit is taken at the time the couple books their rental at their Suit & Tux Styling Appointment. Any additional members of the party renting through 125 Bridal & Tux can expect to pay a deposit at the time of submitting their measurements, and payment in full is required at the time of a final fit the week of the wedding.

 

Please keep in mind as we are an NH-based business, all our garments are tax-free.

We accept all major credit cards and cash. Checks can be accepted at the initial stage of ordering.

Wedding dresses take at least 6-9 months to arrive, as your gown isn't actually created until your order is submitted! This slow approach to fashion means the utmost care is put into your garment.
Accessories, bridesmaid and mothers dresses can take at least 4-5 months. If your wedding is happening sooner than that, there are many other options, such as rushing an order or purchasing a sample. Your consultant can help you figure out what option is best for you!

We are what is considered a "Closed-Concept" salon, which means that we don't keep our inventory out to browse. At your appointment, your Stylist will curate a collection of dresses for you based on your preferences and pull dresses for you from our private closet. This shopping style has so many benefits and makes for a very relaxing and efficient appointment. We understand that brides want to see all their options, so we have our designer's inventory on our website for you to browse through prior to coming in. In unique situations, arrangements can be made for the consultant to be accompanied by the bride for a final browsing on select weekdays.

 

Please note: We don't have every dress on our website in stock to try on, so if you see something you like, please call us to check availability.

  1. Your bridal appointment is scheduled for 90 minutes.
  2. You are allowed to bring up to 5 special guests with you to your appointment.
  3. To protect our merchandise, no outside food or drink is allowed.

Whether you are purchasing an item directly from our collection or special ordering an item, such as a black wedding gown, through one of our valued designers, there are no returns or exchanges after 24 hours of your deposit.

Bringing alcohol into the store is not allowed due to legal liabilities. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation with this policy. To protect our valuable (and delicate!) merchandise, we ask that you refrain from bringing outside beverages, though you are welcome to bring water.

Some of our award-winning designers request that photographs of their newest collections not be taken. If you'd like a picture while trying on dresses, please inquire with your consultant if you’d like to take a picture of a gown to make sure it’s okay with the designer. We have made arrangements to allow photography of all gowns purchased so you can share images with photographers, makeup artists, etc.

As a premier source of wedding gowns near me we strive to provide the most updated selection of gowns. A Trunk Show is how we make that possible as this is an in-store event that showcases a collection of dresses or accessories that we don't have in our inventory. These pieces are typically not yet in stores, and are only sent to us for a limited period of time for a truly meant-to-be dress moment! Outside of seeing the newest styles before they're available nationwide and even more styles within your budget at your fingertips, there are often perks and/or promotions that coincide if you happen to say "Yes!", too.

Bring it back to us. We can send it out to be cleaned and preserved so you can keep it forever!
