HOW TO SHOP PLAYDATE
We offer in-store shopping and try-ons by appointment. Please see the "private shopping" section of our site to book your private shopping playdate. You can always contact us to try to accommodate a time outside of those available in the booking app.
More information about the private shopping experience is also found on the private shopping page of this site.
We are located on Santa Cruz's "West Edge." There are plenty of breweries, wineries, restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and more in our neighborhood to make a full day of your shopping/try-on experience! Santa Cruz is also, of course, known for its natural beauty. We have plenty of tips for planning your Santa Cruz adventure--just ask!
"VINTAGE" ITEMS
We source "new vintage" items from as recently as about the early 2000s-2010s, and "true vintage" items from as far back as the early 1900s.
As our products are all vintage and most are second-hand or gently used, buyers can anticipate very minor flaws, such as a missing bead or tiny mark on the interior fabric. In item descriptions, we do our best to detail any flaws that are noticeable when the product is worn. We also do our best to source only near-flawless pieces, and we often make repairs to pieces before listing them for sale.
We take care to hand-wash or dry-clean any products that need cleaning before listing. However, it is always advisable to consult a dry-cleaner and make sure your dress is in as near-perfect condition as possible before wearing it on your big day!
We work with and recommend Almar Cleaners in Santa Cruz, CA for dry cleaning and repairs to our garments. Please let them know that we sent you!
GOWN RENTAL
We offer a selection of our pieces for rental in order to further our mission of fighting waste in the wedding industry.
Availability of dresses for rental varies. Please just ask!
Typically, dresses rent for approximately half the listed purchased price, plus a cleaning fee. Upon rental, an agreement is signed outlining that damage to rental items will incur an automatic charge for the full-price of the item, as listed for sale. The cleaning fee is refundable if the dress is ultimately purchased.
SHIPPING & RETURNS
Shipping is a flat-rate of $20 within the USA for orders in the amount of $150+ (this includes most bridal/formal items), and $10 for orders amounting $0-149 (most children's items or accessories).
Please contact us before placing an order if you require international shipping.
We do our best to re-use shipping and packing materials for sustainability.
You may also contact us in advance of purchase if you would like to pick up your item in-person at our Santa Cruz, CA shop. We offer a 10% discount on any purchase picked up in-person by bike or EV!
Unfortunately, because of the fragility of our vintage items, we are not able to accept returns.
ALL PURCHASES ARE AS-IS & FINAL.
