Frequently asked questions

Planning your wedding and wondering what a fitting at LOVALANCHE is like? Here are the answers to the questions brides-to-be most often ask before visiting us in Lyon.

Yes. At LOVALANCHE, fittings are private and by appointment only. This allows us to welcome you in an intimate, fully personalised setting, with our attention entirely devoted to you. You can take your time, enjoy the boutique and our advice without feeling rushed, and fully savour this special moment in your wedding preparations in Lyon.

Simply fill in the form on our “Book an appointment” page. You share your contact details, your wedding date, your usual size, the days that suit you, your inspirations and your budget. Our team will get back to you within 24 hours to arrange the ideal moment together. You can also call us on 06 47 00 02 67. So that we can welcome you in the best conditions, please confirm your attendance at least 48 hours before your appointment.

The easiest way is to tell us your wedding date in the appointment form. An approximate date is fine, as long as it includes at least the month and the year. This helps us prepare your fitting and advise you according to your own timeline. Feel free to get in touch as soon as you start thinking about your dress.

In the appointment form, you can indicate your budget for the dress alone, excluding veil and accessories: up to €2,500, €2,500 to €3,500, €3,500 to €4,500, €4,500 to €6,000, or €6,000 and above. If you prefer, you can also choose to explore several options. We then prepare a selection suited to your budget.

The appointment form lets you tell us your usual size, from UK 6 / EU 34 to UK 20 / EU 48. This helps us prepare your fitting in advance and show you styles that suit your figure. If you are unsure between two sizes, just mention it in your message and we will talk it through together at the boutique in Lyon.

Our Lyon boutique showcases international designers: Rara Avis, Ricca Sposa, Katy Corso, Katya Katya London, Innocentia and YolanCris, a house born in Barcelona. All the dresses shown belong to our New Collection 2027, couture wedding dresses in a range of silhouettes. Some designs even feature detachable elements, such as sleeves, a train, a top or a scarf, or a choice of nude or ivory lining.

Our website lets you discover our dresses and spot your favourites before you visit. The dresses are discovered and tried on at the boutique in Lyon, by appointment. Note the styles you love and mention them in the appointment form: we can then have them ready for your fitting and suggest other designs in the same spirit.

Your fitting unfolds in four steps. Welcome: you share your vision of the big day with us. Discover: we show you silhouettes, fabrics and details selected to match your style. Try on: you slip into your favourite silhouettes to see what feels right. Say yes: you find the dress that truly reflects who you are, the one in which you feel completely yourself.

An appointment lasts 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30 on average, and we are happy to take a few extra minutes if needed. Ideally, we suggest coming with two to four loved ones: a small circle keeps the atmosphere intimate and helps you decide calmly. Larger groups are of course welcome too.

White After Dark evenings are evening fittings held on Mondays and Thursdays from 7pm to 9pm. They are designed for brides-to-be who prefer to come after their working day, while still enjoying a private fitting. To join one, simply select the White After Dark option in the appointment form, and our team will get back to you to confirm.

Of course, and we warmly encourage it. The appointment form lets you tell us what appeals to you: sleeves, neckline, open back, corset, train, silhouette or colour. You can also attach your inspiration images, Pinterest screenshots or photos. They help us understand your style and prepare a selection of dresses that really suits you.

Yes. Alongside our couture wedding dresses, our selection includes corsets, veils, hair accessories and jewellery, scarves, chokers and gloves. Thanks to our direct relationships with the designers, we can also order other accessories to suit your wishes, depending on their availability. Our Boudoir Collection 2027 brings together silk lingerie, kimonos, robes and capes for the bride’s morning.
