Finding a wedding dress you love doesn’t always mean you can actually buy it.
Maybe you tried on the perfect gown at a bridal boutique, but it was far beyond your budget. Perhaps you found a beautiful style online, only to discover that it doesn’t come in your size or preferred color. Or maybe the dress would take months to arrive, leaving no time for alterations before your wedding.
The good news? You don’t necessarily have to give up on the style you love.
At InWeddingDress, you can have a custom wedding dress made from a photo, even if the style isn’t available on our website. Simply send us clear pictures of the dress along with your sizing information, and our team will review the design and let you know if we can make it for you.
Why Have a Wedding Dress Made from a Photo?
Sometimes a dress is perfect in inspiration, but not quite right in reality.
The original gown may only be available in limited sizes. The boutique may not offer the color you want. Alterations can be complicated or expensive, and designer prices may simply be outside the budget you planned for your wedding.
Having a custom-made wedding dress gives you more flexibility.
You can choose a standard size or provide your measurements for custom sizing. You can also request a different color instead of being limited to traditional white or ivory.
Want a soft blush wedding dress? Prefer romantic pink or elegant champagne? These colors can all be customized. If you have other changes in mind, include them when you contact us so our team can review your requests together with the dress photos.
How to Order a Custom Wedding Dress from a Photo
The process starts with the right reference pictures.
Send us a clear front photo and back photo of the wedding dress you want. If possible, include additional close-up pictures showing important details such as the neckline, sleeves, lace, beading, waist, back, or train.
The images don’t have to come from a product page. They can be photos you took in a bridal store, pictures you saved for inspiration, or other clear images that show the design.
Next, tell us your size. You can order in a standard size or provide your measurements for a custom-size wedding dress.
Once you have everything ready, email your dress photos, sizing information, and any special requests to support@inweddingdress.com.
Our team will review the design and normally reply within 24 hours with a quote and instructions on how to place your custom order.
How Long Does a Custom Wedding Dress Take?
Not every bride begins shopping a year before her wedding. If your wedding date is approaching, knowing exactly how long your dress will take can make planning much easier.
InWeddingDress offers three production options:
- Standard: 15–18 days
- Rush: 13 days
- Super Rush: 9 days
Shipping normally takes an additional 5–7 business days, so remember to include both production and shipping time when planning when to order.
If you have a particularly tight deadline, let our team know your wedding or event date when requesting your quote.
What About Customs Duties and Import Taxes?
Ordering a custom wedding dress internationally can raise another question: will there be unexpected customs charges when the package arrives?
For most countries, applicable import taxes and duties are covered by InWeddingDress, making the final cost more predictable and giving you one less thing to worry about while planning your wedding.
Your Inspiration, Made for You
The dress you fall in love with doesn’t have to be the dress hanging on the rack.
Maybe you want the same romantic silhouette in blush instead of ivory. Maybe you need a custom size, a more manageable price, or simply a dress that can be ready in time for your wedding.
With InWeddingDress, a picture can be the starting point.
Send clear front and back photos of the wedding dress you love, along with your size or measurements and any customization requests, to support@inweddingdress.com. We’ll review your request and provide a quote and ordering instructions within 24 hours.
