Our dresses are in a range to let you know that the sample is a good fit for you to try on if you're in the size range shown. The sizing for wedding dresses can also be different than what you're used to for your everyday clothes so we show a range to help guide you towards a better selection.

Wedding dresses are rarely a perfect fit, and our samples are a way for you to see the look and feel of the dress. Trying on dresses one size up or down is normal when bridal shopping — we provide clips to help you get the right fit. All of our dresses in a range are the middle size of the range — for example, a size 4-8 will be a size 6.

After your bridal samples have been returned and received by us in good condition, we will send you a discount code (up to $45) via email that you can use towards the purchase of your dream dress!

While some sample gowns are brand new, most sample gowns have been tried on by other brides as brides go through their journey to find their YES dress. We have high standards for our samples, so every gown is inspected and cleaned upon return. We try our best to catch and do any repairs necessary before returning them to inventory. Samples are meant to be worn and tried, so your sample may come with slight wear or tear; this is why we offer 20% off any sample gown purchase!

Wedding dresses are rarely a perfect fit, and our samples are a way for you to see the look and feel of the dress. Trying on dresses one size up or down is normal when bridal shopping. That's why we provide clips in your sample box to help you get the right fit. Since these samples have been tried on by brides like you, they may be stretched out over time. Therefore when choosing your final dress size, rather than going by the size you tried on, it's highly recommended that you follow the size chart measurements. If you have any questions, our stylists are here to help!

Most of our samples will be available to be shipped to you within 1 week. However, some styles in high demand might have a waitlist, which can extend the delivery time. If your desired style is not available immediately, your stylist can work with you to find alternative options to achieve a similar look.

Drop off the samples at your local FedEx within 7 days of delivery. If you want to extend your time with the dresses, contact our customer service team.

We include a prepaid FedEx return label inside the box with your dresses. We cannot be responsible for any packages returned to us using a label or carrier other than the one we provided, meaning that if the package becomes lost, you could be charged for not returning the dress.

If you misplace your return label, please reach out to us athello@averyaustin.comand we’d more more than happy to help!

Please also note that Try-At-Home samples must be returned in the original condition they were received, with all tags affixed. Samples are only meant for try on purposes so if they come back damaged, you may be charged a fee to fix the damage or replace the dress entirely if the damage cannot be fixed (ex. stains, tears, strong odors, etc.) If the damage is severe, the cost will include the full retail price of the dress.

If we haven’t heard from you and your package isn’t on the way back, you will be responsible for the full retail value of the merchandise in your possession. But please, let’s not let it get to that! If you need extra time with your samples, please contact your stylist or email us athello@averyaustin.com.
