WHEN DID NEW LEAF BRIDAL OPEN?
New Leaf Bridal was founded by Khanh Van Gelder who had always dreamed of opening her own bridal shop! In 2018, Khanh did just that, she left the medical field after almost two decades and turned a new leaf! Khanh knew that she wanted to open a bridal shop that had a mom and pop feel combined with the most exclusive selection of gowns that made every bride feel one of a kind! We are the first and only bridal shop in Victoria Gardens and with over 200 brides and counting, our mission at NLB is to give each bride a unique curated bridal experience they won't forget!
DO I NEED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT?
At our shop we pride ourselves on only having one dressing room dedicated to our brides; for this reason we only take one appointment at a time! We are appointment only so spots tend to fill up quickly; we recommend booking in advance for a particular date, so feel free to give us a call at 909-803-8019 to find out what times are available!
IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD BRING TO MY APPOINTMENT?
These 2 things can be super helpful to bring to your appointment, but are not required:
1) Shape wear (to get a more accurate fit)
2) Heels (to get a more accurate hem/train length)
*However this is required:
Face Coverings That Meet The Standards Of Health Authorities Are Required To Be Worn Above The Mouth And Nose In Store Throughout The Appointment Duration, No Exceptions & Client Screening Form Must Be Completed Prior To Appointment.
WHAT SIZES DO YOU CARRY? WHAT IS THE PRICE RANGE?
Our samples run from a size 6-26 in store, and can be ordered up to a size 32. Once you find your dream gown, one is ordered for you based on your measurements on our designer's size chart. On average our gowns are $1600, some priced lower and some higher depending on the amount of details.
HOW MANY PEOPLE SHOULD I BRING?
For Standard 1 Hour Appointments: 2 guests only. For New VIP 2 Hour Appointments: Up to 5 guests only (No children under 5). *Face Coverings That Meet The Standards Of Health Authorities Are Required To Be Worn Above The Mouth And Nose In Store Throughout The Appointment Duration, No Exceptions & Client Screening Form Must Be Completed Prior To Appointment.
WHEN SHOULD I ORDER MY GOWN?
All of our Designers' gowns are made-to-order and standard production is 6-8 months, so we recommend our brides to start looking for their wedding gown about a year out from their wedding date to ensure enough time for the gown to arrive and alterations. *Due to Covid-19, we are recommending brides to order their gowns as soon as possible because there could be delays depending on current events.
WILL MY GOWN BE A PERFECT FIT ONCE IT ARRIVES?
We measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare them to our designer's standard size chart, so that you get the most accurate fit possible. We recommend going with your widest measurement so that the rest of the gown can be fitted to your body with alterations.
DO YOU DO ALTERATIONS?
We do not offer any in house alterations within our shop, however we recommend a local independent seamstress in Rancho Cucamonga (whom has 25+ years of specialized experience in bridal gowns) that has assisted a majority of our brides. Most gowns require standard alterations (hem, bustle, making the gown more fitted to your body) which can cost around $600 depending on what you need done.
WHAT IF MY WEDDING IS 6 MONTHS (OR LESS) AWAY?
Quick engagement or elopement? No worries, at our shop discontinued gowns can be bought off the rack and some gowns can be ordered under 6 months with rush fees if possible.
DO YOU SHIP WEDDING GOWNS?
Unfortunately we are not able to ship your wedding gown once it arrives. We require you to pick up your gown in person so we can assure that the gown is of the highest quality when you take it home.
