Wonderful experience, and got my 2026 dream dress!

Had a vision for a dress and got something better than I could have imagined! Loved the dress so much! Could not have asked for a better process. So quick to arrive and was exactly how I imagined it to look!

Hi! I'm looking to design my wedding dresses for my wedding - 1 for ceremony and 1 for the reception. The first image is for the ceremony and the second for the reception party. I already did a bit of research on what I like and tried to include as much info as possible in the images, please let me know if you have any questions.

Also, please let me know if I should be creating a separate order for each dress, I can change it if necessary.

Note that for the ceremony dress in #1, I would also like a long cathedral-length tulle veil.

Please let me know the price for:
1. each dress on its own

2. both dresses total amount

Hello

Thank you for choosing LUNSS for your high-end customization. This is Shirley at your service. It's my pleasure to assist you in customizing your dream wedding dress and reception dress.

Wedding dress

1. For the sweetheart neck bodice, do you want it to be sheer, or would you like to add a lining to reduce transparency, or for it to be completely opaque?

2. With straps?

mceclip0

3. The back is an invisible zipper, right?

4. Regarding the skirt, adding a glitter mesh overlay with the same lace decoration is no problem. Adding lace to the train is also possible.

mceclip1

5. All the fabrics are off-white. What color would you like for the built-in bra: white or nude?

6. We don't have the exact lace from the original design, so we'd like to recommend some suitable alternatives. Please take a look and let us know if you like any of them.

For the reception dress

Hi Shirley, thank you so much for your response. Here are my answers.

CEREMONY DRESS

1, I think having it sheer would be fine, but I want the floral lace to cover it enough where it gives the illusion that It is not sheer and blends with the bra. Additionally, I would like there to be a built-in nude bra that covers the chest area, but I don’t want it to be very obvious/visible because of the sheerness. Kind of like the photo, the bra is not too prominent.

2, Can I have removable straps? But not like the photo, something like this:

mceclip0

3, Yes, preferably.

4 Sounds good.

5, As long as the bra blends in behind the designs and boning, I’m ok with any colour. I'm okay with an off-white dress but please not blush or nude.

6. Thank you for sending options, they look beautiful. I also looked up on your website and found these two that I liked. What do you think?
https://oneyard.shop/laser-cut-sequinned-leaf-floral-lace-1843.html

- https://oneyard.shop/exquisite-sequins-leaf-vine-lace-fabric-778.html

Are these two available and if so, which one do you think looks better? I can’t choose!

7. Is it possible to do a simple veil as well to match the colour of the dress? Just a single layer tulle that reaches a few inches longer than the wedding dress train. How much is a veil?

RECEPTION DRESS

1. Yes I would like the scarf. Is there a way to make sure the scarf doesn’t fall over the shoulder when I wear it? If not it’s ok.

2. I would like to keep the train the similar length as the photo. I like this fabric best:

https://oneyard.shop/double-faced-thick-bridal-satin-fabric-617.html

SIZE

I would like custom size. Here are my measurements according to the instructions you provided.

Height(barefoot) 164cm (5ft 4in)
Bust(fullest portion) 33.3in
Under Bust 20in
Mid-Shoulder to Bust Point 9in
Waist(smallest portion of your waist) 27in
Hips(fullest portion of your butt) 38in
Hollow to Floor(barefoot) 52in
Shoe Height 2.8in

Thank you SO MUCH Shirley! The price sounds good to me. Let me know the final price and how we can proceed. Can I ask how long is production and shipping time to Canada is usually?

Hello

Thank you for your prompt reply.

Please double-check the measurement of Under Bust 20in, thank you!

mceclip0

If you could provide us with the measurements from the hollow to the deep neckline:__

and from hollow to the waist:__ that will be better. If they are not available, our dressmaker will customize it for you based on your other measurements.

CEREMONY DRESS

1, "I think having it sheer would be fine, but I want the floral lace to cover it enough where it gives the illusion that It is not sheer and blends with the bra. Additionally, I would like there to be a built-in nude bra that covers the chest area, but I don’t want it to be very obvious/visible because of the sheerness. Kind of like the photo, the bra is not too prominent."

We will do our best to match the fabric to achieve the look in the picture.

2, Can I have removable straps?

Make detachable straps, sure, no problem! Do you have more pictures of this strap?

3, Invisible zipper back, okay, would like to add some decorative buttons?

mceclip0

4, Okay.

5, The pictures show a nude built-in bra. We've made similar bodices before. What do you think?

mceclip0

mceclip1

(This dress has a glitter mesh overlay, for your reference.)

6, https://oneyard.shop/exquisite-sequins-leaf-vine-lace-fabric-778.html

This floral lace is perfect for your dress. I'm concerned that the lace flowers on the first style are a bit too big.

7, The price of the simple tulle bridal veil is 60 USD. It will be longer than the dress train.

V645EV001_1T_120_11

RECEPTION DRESS

1. Add a scarf, noted!

2. Same train like the picture, okay.

https://oneyard.shop/double-faced-thick-bridal-satin-fabric-617.html

This fabric for the reception dress, noted! Would you like the scarf also in this fabric?

PRICE & ORDER

Thanks for the information. The prices sound good. I will place the order asap.

Thanks,

Tiffany

Sorry I forgot to ask earlier -- is it possible to add a bustled option on the ceremony dress? Apologies if this is too late. And if it is possible, how much extra would it be?

avatar - Shirley

Hello

Thank you for your order.

1. Thanks for providing the measurements. We will make your custom order based on the sizes you've provided.

2. No worries. We've added shoulders to the dress, and the quote will remain the same. Just to confirm, would you like us to add lace appliqué to the shoulder straps? Are the straps attached or detachable?

mceclip0

3. Okay, zipper back buttons.

4. Do you have a clearer picture of the bottom skirt? Is it like these pictures? How about the train length? Add a bustle, no problem, no extra fee.

il_794xN.5368382401_de6j

5. This dress has a layer of nude mesh and 2-3 layers of off-white mesh + nude built-in bra. Would you like to make your dress bodice like this combination?

mceclip1

6. https://oneyard.shop/exquisite-sequins-leaf-vine-lace-fabric-778.html

Okay, we will use this lace applique.

But we also have a similar lace to the pictures I sent in number 4. Do you like this lace?

7. Okay, we will make a simple tulle bridal veil to match your dress. And, we will make the scarf for your reception dress with the same fabric.

Once we receive your confirmation, we will place the order with our factory.

Please note that production will take approximately 1.5 months. When is your wedding?

Best regards

Shirley

2. Please make them detachable. I’m inclined to say yes to the design, but what do you think? Would it be better without it? I don’t have a strong preference.

3. I like it when the design looks even all the way to the bottom. It doesn’t need to be super busy or fancy or anything, but I prefer if it is not empty in some spaces but an even pattern all the way. Does this make sense? Here are some dresses with this kind of pattern I’m talking about.

mceclip1

mceclip2

mceclip3

mceclip4

4. Actually I think I prefer if it were sheer like this photo where you can kind of see the skin but it doesn’t look too revealing overall. I know you said that the photo you sent of the short dress “has a layer of nude mesh and 2-3 layers of off-white mesh + nude built-in bra”. I personally don’t really care what kind of fabric combinations are used, but I just want it to be more sheer like this photo.

mceclip0

6. I like that this lace has a design where the flower petals are more sheer (if that makes sense?) I prefer a more relaxed/spread out look of the flowers in this lace that I chose. But thank you for sending the other option.

7. One more thing that's important to me is the waistline where the sheer bodice meets the more opaque skirts. I really like this one dress where the basque waist is not even at the back, but rather dips in the front, sides and back. I think it's really flattering. Let me know if you have questions!

mceclip5

mceclip6

mceclip7

Please let me know if you need any more photos.

The wedding will be end of March 2026, so there is time. Thanks so much! Can't wait!

Best,

Tiffany

avatar - Shirley

Hello

Thank you for your prompt reply.

2, Yes, we agree the sleeves are unnecessary. If you're not very fond of them, we can drop the sleeve design.

3, Okay, I think the lace on the skirt you want is relatively dense, with smaller gaps, but the pattern is not very tight. We can make it for you.

5,

mceclip0

Got it. Based on this picture, we will proceed with making the bodice for you.

7, This waist design. No problem!

6, If you prefer sheer like leaves, do you like any of the ones from the options below? Yes, your wedding is still some time away, so we can take our time to discuss the details. I believe the main issue right now is the lace pattern.

avatar - linxie

Hi Shirley

2. Okay Agreed--no need for sleeves!

3. Thank you. Again as long as the pattern is equal all the way down on the skirt, it should be fine.

5 + 7. Thanks!

6. I really like lace 1 and lace 3 but am having trouble imagining what it will look like. Do you have examples of dresses where they use lace 1 and lace 3?

If it's not too much trouble, do you also have examples of a dress with this lace that I picked above ? https://oneyard.shop/exquisite-sequins-leaf-vine-lace-fabric-778.html

Thank you so much for working with me on this. I really appreciate it.\

Hello

I apologize, but we don't have reference photos for these specific lace designs in a complete wedding dress. Each gown we create is a unique, custom piece for our clients. We will cut the lace based on your inspiration photos to craft a one-of-a-kind gown just for you.

Below are some photos of other lace gowns we've made. They are for your reference to see the quality of our work, but please understand they do not feature the exact lace you've chosen.

avatar - linxie

okay, that's ok thank you.

I think I like lace 1. What do you think?

mceclip0

I know you said that the florals may be too large. In that case, maybe lace 3 would be my second choice.

mceclip1

avatar - Shirley

https://oneyard.shop/laser-cut-sequinned-leaf-floral-lace-1843.html

We recommend lace 1. The overall effect should be better than the other options and most closely match your inspiration picture. 😊

avatar - linxie

Ok let's go with lace 1 then! Thanks so much

avatar - Shirley

Okay, lace 1 !!😊

avatar - linxie

Great. Please let me know of any updates or anything else from me

avatar - Shirley

We will arrange for the factory to begin production as soon as possible. Please wait patiently. We will send you updated photos as we have them. Thank you.🌹

avatar - linxie

Hi Shirley! Hope you are well. I'm very excited about the dress being in production.

Just a question I thought of for the reception dress. Will it have a built-in bra/boning as well? I just want to confirm.

Thank you!

avatar - Shirley

Yes, please be assured that all of our formal dresses come standard with invisible boning and built-in bra cups/padding.

Hello

We hope you are doing well. Your dress is currently in production, and our tailor has noticed an issue while cutting the fabric based on the measurements you provided.

The 'Hollow to Neckline' measurement seems a little short. If we proceed with this size, the resulting neckline depth will not be very pronounced, and the final effect will not match the look in the picture as well as it should. We strongly recommend increasing this depth slightly.

Additionally, the 'Hollow to Waist' measurement also seems to be too short. Proportionally, it is only slightly lower than the 'Hollow to waist' measurement, meaning the desired 'V drop waist' effect will not be noticeable.

mceclip0

We kindly ask you to re-verify this measurement.

Alternatively, should we allow our dressmaker to use their professional judgment to adjust the measurements for the best possible aesthetic effect?

We look forward to your reply.

Best regards

Shirley

avatar - linxie

Hi Shirley thanks for your message. I checked again and hollow to deep neckline can be 6in.

however hollow to waist I measured 15 inch still. I don't truly understand , what this mean "Hollow to Waist' measurement also seems to be too short. Proportionally, it is only slightly lower than the 'Hollow to waist' measurement, meaning the desired 'V drop waist' effect will not be noticeable."

However, I trust the dressmaker. As long as generally it will fit on my body and won't fall down, I'm totally ok with them using their professional judgment :-)

also, not sure if it's too late. If it is, then no problem we don't need to do this. But I was wondering if we can last minute add these straps?

IMG_7705

avatar - Shirley

Hello

Thank you for your confirmation!

mceclip0

mceclip1

From the hollow to the neckline is 6'', from the hollow to the waist is 15''. Please confirm if it is from the hollow to your natural waist or to the V point. Thank you!

Add straps like the original inspiration picture, no problem!!

avatar - linxie

15inch is to the natural waist

avatar - Shirley

Okay!

avatar - linxie

15 inch is to my belly button. I guess for the V point will be longer, 17" or so. Again, I trust the production team!

avatar - Shirley

Okay, thank you for your trust:)

avatar - linxie

Hi Shirley! Hope you are well :) I saw the photos of the reception dress and I love it so much!

I'm just checking in on the status of the other dress, do you have an estimate on when it will be finished?

thanks!

avatar - Shirley

Thank you for your appreciation.❀️

Your second wedding dress is currently being manufactured, and we anticipate its completion this week. Thank you for your continued patience.

avatar - linxie

Thank you! I can't wait to see it soon :)

avatar - Shirley

😊

Hi

I'm glad to tell you that your wedding dress and veil are all complete. They are so stunning!

I have uploaded the photos for your preview and approval. Kindly check them out. Once we receive your final payment, we will arrange the shipment of your order ASAP.😊

Please note that since the mannequin's dimensions are not an exact match to yours, we were unable to zip up the back fully during the photo shoot. Rest assured, the zipper is perfectly fine.

Best regards

Shirley

Hi Shirley this is so so beautiful! Thanks so much for all your help I can't wait to see it in person 🀍 This is better than I could have imagined!

What is the estimated shipping timeline to Canada?

avatar - Shirley

one more question, I remember you said you could do a bustle the train but I'm not sure how πŸ˜…

avatar - Shirley

Hello dear
