We want your experience at Expressions in Silk Bridal & Prom to be fun and exciting as you shop for your wedding gown, mothers, prom or bridesmaid dress or the gentlemen for tuxedos  Our team values and appreciates each of you.

BridesMaid group appointments

Bridesmaid group appointments will follow the same steps as noted above, with the bridal suite reserved for the bride and her bridesmaids. 
1)  Once you have placed your personal items in the bridal suite, you may begin looking through the gowns and selecting styles to try-on. 
2) After you have made your selection for each bridesmaid, we will help in sizing and then collect the initial deposit.  Orders are placed as a group for dye lot purposes.
3)  Standard shipping with Eva, LaDivine is 10-15 days.
4) Special orders are placed directly with the selected designer on your behalf.  Once an order is placed, we CAN NOT cancel the order for ​any reason. We are bound by the designer to receive the order.
After order has been placed, what happens next?
1)  
Upon receipt, bridesmaid dresses are checked-in and tagged, the bride and each bridesmaid are notified by text or phone.
2) Schedule your try-on and alterations appointment, pay your balance.

tuxedos Rentals 

1)  $50 deposit to be paid at time of measuring
2)  Balance is due upon pick-up
3) Tuxedos 
arrive the week of your event, once your order has been received and checked-in, we contact the bride and/or groom, then each person directly by text and/or phone to notify of its arrival.
4) We require every tuxedo to be tried on and if any item needs to be adjusted we make every effort to do so based on when the user comes in for try-on/pick-up.

5) Tuxedos are to be returned on Sunday by 3:30 p.m. following the event unless other arrangements have been made in advance.
6) You are responsible for the replacement cost of any item not returned (tie, vest, shoes)  when returning your tuxedo and must be paid in full before you leave.

Is there a late fee if not returned on Sunday? 
Yes, we have to drop them off at UPS on Monday to be sent to the warehouse by Tuesday to be cleaned and prepared for the next users, therefore a $50 per day late fee beginning on Tuesday when we re-open is charged per tuxedo user.

Our policy is "all sales are final".  No exchange, refund, cancellation or store credit should be expected after the purchase has been made whether off-the-rack or special order.  We are not responsible for acts of God, pandemics or should a customer gain/lose weight or become pregnant after an order has been placed on their behalf.  Reduced priced items are sold "as is".
