    I paid the to for mine bc I bought it off the rack and took it home that day. I think paying half is very common, and then some places do like 25%/75% or 60/40

    Do you know if they have payment plans or it’s just an out right buy. I know you can get amazing deals my sisters friend went and bought her dress on the rack it was 579 when she went to buy it it was only 129

    I bought mine off the rack at a local bridal shop, so I paid in full but they still offered a payment plan . A friend of mine bought hers at David’s Bridal and they had her apply for their credit card and it was 6 months interest free.

    I'm pretty sure they have payment plans, I just decided to just pay mine in full. My dress was delivered to the store about a week after I tried it on.

    I had to do 50% upfront and then I had until the dress came in to pay off the rest or just pay the other 50% when I picked it up. I made payments when I could and was able to pay it off before it came in

    I believe most bridal stores require some sort of deposit. I bought my dress from a bridal store which required 40% down but I just paid in full so all I have left are the alterations

    I did their credit card. My dress and alterations were about 600 and their credit card is 6 months free interest. So I didnt have to put any money down luckily

    I paid for mine in full they did not except payment plans or have any available . If you want it you have to pay for it in full..but I’m in Florida I’m not sure where you at ,they could have different requirements at different David’s bridal‘s

    I got my dress from David’s Bridal, I had to pay the full amount, which was ok because I budgeted $1000 and it was only $700. They did offer financing interest free too if needed.

    I actually just got my dress over the weekend from David's Bridal. They have me on a layaway plan where I make payments on the dress but also gave me the option to buy the dress in full.

    I bought mine from David's and did the interest free financing; pay it off in 6 months and then you don't have to worry about all of the money up front. If you don't make the 6 months...then you'll have to pay the deferred interest amount.

    At David's Bridal I had to pay the full amount but I also took it off the rack that day. If you order one and pick it up later, it may be different.

    I had to make a 50% down payment on mine. It was a small, local boutique so they probably have a greater need to "protect" themselves than a large chain though.

    At David’s bridal you pay for the entire dress the day you order it. But they do have a credit card/payment plan where it’s no interest if you pay it off in a certain amount of time
