Mothers FAQ

If you’re a mother of the bride or groom for an upcoming wedding, we know how special this time is for you! Whether you’re stepping into our salon for the first time or preparing for your big appointment, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about shopping for mother of the bride dresses at Madeleine’s Daughter! 


Do I Need an Appointment?
Yes! We are by-appointment only to ensure every mom receives a personalized and stress-free shopping experience. Our gowns aren’t out to browse; instead, you’ll work one-on-one with a Stylist who will curate a selection of gowns tailored to your preferences. Booking your appointment guarantees your reserved suite and dedicated Stylist, making your visit truly exceptional.


When Should I Schedule My Appointment?
We recommend scheduling your Mother of the Wedding appointment 5-8 months ahead of the wedding date. This allows you access to the full range of styles and colors while avoiding the stress of rushed alterations. Even if you anticipate body changes, shopping in this timeframe ensures enough time for ordering and fittings.


If you’re on a tighter timeline, don’t worry - we’ll explore options for gowns with quicker delivery times.

 


What Is the Price Range of Your Mothers’ Collection?
Our Mother of the Wedding gowns range from $500 to $1,775, offering something for every style and budget. Plus, if the bride purchased her gown at Madeleine’s Daughter, all mothers and matriarch figures in the party receive 10% off their gown order!


What Sizes Are Available in Your Collection?
We proudly carry sample gowns in sizes 6-24, with the ability to order sizes up to 30 in many styles. While sample dresses may not fit perfectly, your Stylist will expertly clip and adjust them to help you envision your ideal fit.


Do You Offer Alterations?
While we don’t offer alterations in-house, we maintain a trusted list of talented seamstresses across New England. Your Stylist will happily recommend one suited to your needs.


These are just a few of the questions we’ve answered to make your shopping journey smoother. Ready to dive deeper? Check out our full Mothers FAQ page for more tips and details.
