Each year we tweak our Sample Sale and each year we learn a little bit more about what you all want to see from it! Mark your calendars: Monday, December 9th – Friday, December 13th (we will not be hosting sample sale appointments on Saturday) will be our new Sample Sale!
The feedback we got from our last sample sale was that you all wanted a more hands-on approach from us so we listened and we’re going to deliver that! Our new Sample Sale format will happen twice a year – once in December and once in April!
The main difference between this Sample Sale and our past sales is we are doing our normal bridal appointments with our brides! You’ll be able to make a sample sale appointment Monday through Friday and get the full on One Fine Day experience! The only thing that’s different is you’ll be shopping our Sample Sale selection! This will really help our brides who aren’t sure what style is best for them and because our consultants are so amazing with our inventory, they will help lead you to the dress that best suits you!
If you request your appointment through our Contact Us page on our website, just state that you’re interested in a Sample Sale Appointment! You can also call us at (260) 483-8000 or email info@onefinedaybridalandgown.com.
What is a sample sale?
- Our sample sale allows you to purchase a wedding dress off the rack, in as-is condition at a deeply discounted price!
Who is a sample sale great for?
- Sample sales are great for brides with a quick wedding date (less than 6 months) or who want to spend less than $1,000 on their dress!
What will be the price ranges of the dresses?
- We will have some styles starting at $350! The vast majority will be under $1,000 but we will have a handful of Martina Liana gowns in the sale which will all be under $1,500.
What sizes will be in the sale?
- Our bridal gowns will range in size from bridal 10-26!
What designers will be included?
- All of ours! The $350 dresses will be from lines we no longer carry in the boutique but we will have lots of dresses from Stella York and Essense of Australia and a handful from Martina Liana
What about bridesmaid dresses?
- $45! You can purchase a bridesmaid dress for upcoming weddings, military balls, black tie events, fundraiser events, bridal showers, etc for only $45 per dress! We will have sizes 6-26 in a huge variety of colors.
What’s the catch?
- Payment is due in full at the time of your purchase and these dresses were samples on our sales floor. Although they’ll all been cleaned and repaired by our alterations team, they have been tried on so you should expect normal wear and tear.
- We do not store these dresses for free. We will have a storage package available for purchase however!

The last exciting bit of news is that we are offering alterations on our sample dresses if you have your fittings completed between December of 2019 and March of 2020! We made the decision last year to not alter any sample dresses purchased but are opening up our alterations department to our sample sale brides if you have your alterations started and completed in the Winter! Our normal alteration rates do apply and we say budget $600 for alterations.
