Why TWO of Every Wedding Dress
Imagine walking into a bridal boutique, heart full of dreams, only to hear:
"Sorry, we don't carry your size"
Yeah… no thanks.
That outdated, size-limited model is exactly what we’ve thrown out the window. Instead, we’ve built our Bridal & Nearlywed experience on something revolutionary (though it really shouldn’t be): gowns available to try on in both straight and plus sizes, every single one.
What does Inclusive Sizing mean to us?
Let’s break it down.
“Inclusive sizing” means every gown in our store is available to try on in at least two sample sizes: one straight size and one plus size.
So whether you’re a size 6 or a size 26, you’re not left guessing what the dress might look like.
You’re not tugging at fabric that won’t zip or drowning in layers that aren’t tailored to you. You’re actually seeing yourself in the dress. You're seeing the neckline, feeling the structure, seeing how the dress moves with you, and most important HOW IT FEELS.
This isn’t just about inventory. It’s about impact.
Here’s why it matters:
Instead of being asked to "just envision it," plus-size brides in our boutique get to try on the actual dress, in their size. No more guesswork, no more holding up a gown and trying to imagine how it might look. You get to see it, feel it, and fall in love with it for real.
This approach also removes so much of the anxiety that often comes with bridal appointments. Shopping for your wedding dress should be filled with joy and anticipation , not worry about whether anything will fit or if you’ll walk away disappointed. With inclusive sizing, the focus shifts back to the excitement and magic of the moment.
And perhaps most importantly, it ensures equal access to style. While many boutiques offer limited selections for plus-size brides, we make sure every gown is available — with zero compromise on design, detail, or drama. You’re not stuck choosing from a small “plus-size” rack. You have access to everything.
Why This Is So Rare in the Bridal Industry
Here’s the truth:
Stocking multiple sizes of every dress is a bigger investment. It’s easier (and cheaper) for boutiques to carry only one sample size and call it a day.
But we’re not here to cut corners. We’re here to change the game.
“Feeling seen and confident should be part of the experience, not an afterthought.”
Too many bridal stores treat plus-size brides as exceptions. We treat them like the norm, because they are. In fact, the average Ontario Women's dress size is now a 16-18. It’s long past time for the bridal world to catch up.
Let’s talk about the emotional side of this.
For plus-size brides, wedding dress shopping can be loaded with fear: “Will anything fit me?”, “Will they judge my body?”, “Will I have to settle for something just because it’s all that’s available?”
Now picture walking into a boutique where the answer to all of that is nope.
Instead, you’re welcomed, hyped up, celebrated and you get to try on anything you want, in your size, with customizations that reflect your personal style.
That's what we’ve created.
We don’t carry “a few” plus-size gowns. We carry every gown — in straight and plus sizes.
From sleek satin to full-on fairytale tulle, your dream dress is here. And yes, it comes in your size.
