What are your Hours?
Do I need an appointment?
We want to give you the one-on-one attention you deserve to help you find your perfect wedding gown, so we do recommend appointments. We accept walk-ins, on a first come first served basis, however appointments take priority so we may not be able to see you if you walk in. Please call 813-586-4809 to inquire about availability for walk-ins.
Covid-19 Pandemic Update: We are unfortunately unable to accept walk-ins during the Covid-19 Pandemic and are only open by appointment at this time
What should I wear to my appointment?
For hygiene, we recommend that you wear underwear and/or shape-wear. Note that your bridal consultant will be getting up close and personal to help you in and out of the gowns, so we are unable to assist customers who go commando. We also encourage you to keep your make-up light for the sake of our gowns. Bring your Wedding shoes if you have them or something similar. Also, If you have a veil from your mom, sister, or aunt – or special jewelry that must be a part of your big day – bring that along too!
Covid-19 Pandemic Update: At this time all customers who enter the boutique must have a mask/face covering. Hand Sanitizer is available for your use during your appointment.We do ask that if you are feeling sick or showing any symptoms of upper respiratory illness, or have been in contact with someone known to be infected with COVID-19, please call us and we will happily reschedule your appointment to a mutually convenient time
Who should I bring with me?
Bridal Appointments are limited to bride plus 4 guests. We encourage you to bring the people closest to you who know your style! If you have a larger party, please book a VIP Appointment. Video conferencing is also available during your appointment. Just Ask!
What additional Precautions are you taking for Covid-19?
Be assured that we are taking extra precautions in our store. Our entire store, including the reception area and dressing rooms, will be sanitized several times a day, including all surfaces, doorknobs, bathrooms, counters, telephones, computers, etc. We do ask for your patience as we sanitize suites between appointments. As we cannot control potential virus spread, you assume all liability for your visit. We want to be as accommodating as possible, but we also want to do our part to keep our community healthy! This is a rapidly changing environment, but we are doing our very best to keep up with information from the CDC and our local government. As a small business in the community, we appreciate your understanding and patience. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at 813.586.4809

What is the process to buy a gown at Royal Bridal?
When you find your dress, we take your measurements and order your gown according to the size closest to those measurements. In 4-6 months – depending on the designer – your gown will arrive and you can come back for a follow-up appointment to pick up your dress as well as try on veils and accessories. We offer a flexible installment plan and a military discount to active duty military, veterans and their immediate family members (Just bring your military ID).
How far in advance do I need to buy my gown?
Most of our designers take 4-6 months to create your made-to-order gown. Factor in time for alterations, and we’re looking at 8-12 months before your big day. Don’t have that much time? That’s okay – we have a wonderful selection of off-the-rack sample and consignment gowns you can take home the same day.
Will I need alterations?
Yep! While your gown is made to order, it is based on a standard size chart. Most gowns will need at least minimal alterations to make it fit you perfectly.
What is a trunk show/Designer Showcase?
Trunk shows/Designer Showcases are an opportunity for brides to see the newest styles in a designer’s wedding dress collection. Trunk shows/Designer Showcases are only in the store for one or two weekends, and they book up quickly – so if you see one coming you don’t want to miss, snag your appointment!
Do you sell bridesmaids or mother of the bride dresses?
Nope! We focus solely on brides, so we can bring the best of the best bridal designs to you without distraction.
Do you offer refunds or exchanges on purchases?
All gowns, veils, sashes, and headpieces are final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged. Therefore, we take the time to ensure you are satisfied with your gown and accessories before you leave the boutique with them – we want happy brides! You have the option to consign your dress and accessories with us to re-coup some funds
