Buy Me Now: Off-the-Rack Wedding Gowns
Found a gown you love in our bridal shop?
Our most popular option is to place a special order through our factory. When you special order a wedding dress from Wedding Gallery, your gown is produced to our exacting standards and built to your specific measurements — not a standard size chart — so it arrives fitting closer to your body from day one. This thoughtful approach allows for a more refined fit and a truly personalized bridal experience from the very beginning.
Special orders typically take 4 to 6 months, depending on the style and time of year. We recommend booking your bridal appointment at least 8 months before your wedding date to allow plenty of time for production and your final fitting, ensuring everything feels seamless and stress-free as your day approaches.
If there’s a small modification you’d like — such as a different neckline or sleeve style — let your consultant know.
Because we own the factory, we can sometimes accommodate minor adjustments that wouldn’t be possible with an imported gown, giving you a level of flexibility and craftsmanship that sets Wedding Gallery apart.

Finding a beautiful plus size wedding dress shouldn’t mean settling for limited options or shopping from a separate “plus” rack in the back of a store. At Wedding Gallery, our gowns are available in sizes 0 through 30, and because we manufacture our own dresses, we can produce any gown in our collection in your exact measurements.
That means you’re not choosing from a handful of styles that happen to come in larger sizes. You’re shopping the full collection — every design, every fabric, every detail — and your dress will be built to fit your body.
Our salon carries a range of sample sizes to try on in-store, and our experienced consultants are skilled at helping you envision how a gown will look in your size. We believe every bride deserves to feel confident and beautiful, and we’ve built our entire process around making that happen — not just for brides who wear a sample size, but for every woman who walks through our doors.
We serve plus size brides from across the St. Louis metro area, including St. Charles, O’Fallon, St. Peters, Wentzville, Chesterfield, and beyond. If you’ve had frustrating experiences at other bridal shops that didn’t carry your size or made you feel like an afterthought, we invite you to experience the difference at Wedding Gallery.
