La Maison Bridals X Chic Bridals
The Experience
La Maison Designer Experience gives the bride an opportunity to work one on one with the designer herself to create a unique design.
Featuring Chic Bridals X Designer Noor Alkhalili
Like the process we take designing our own chic bridal collection, we can do the same to design yours! Whether it’s a small addition to an existing design or something from scratch you will work 1 on 1 with our lead designer Noor to ensure your vision comes true.
The Designer Experience Process
Step 1
Experience our current Chic Bridals Collection
To begin the designer experience, brides are invited to an appointment at our Boutique. Working alongside our team of Stylists, you will have the opportunity to experience our current collections, allowing you to best decipher the most flattering shapes, styles, laces, embellishments and design features for you. At the conclusion of this appointment your stylist will refer you to the Designer Experience, and Designer will be in-touch to arrange your customised consultation.
Step 2
Meet the designer
Initial Designer Experience consultation | $200
Length of Appointment 1:45 hours | Ideal Time Frame from Wedding - 9 Months
Virtual Zoom Appointment.
Your first consultation with Alkhalili involves a one-on-one Virtually over a Zoom Call.She’ll be excited to hear what you have in mind and answer any questions. Together you will work through your design ideas and experiment with shapes, silhouettes, fabrics, and embellishments. She’ll walk you through our custom design process, timeline, pricing and show you examples of our work in detail.
Please note the consultation fee is to be paid prior to your appointment. If you don’t go ahead with the custom dress, the $200 can be credited towards any Chic bridals dress or accessory purchased within 1-2 months of your initial appointment, alternatively it will be deducted from your designer experience dress.
Step 3
Design Sketch and Mood Board

Noor will then take time to brainstorm your ideas and create a mood board with the initial sketches for your dress. She will then reach out to schedule another zoom consultation to walk you through the design ideas and get feedback from you. During this step, the designer will provide lace & fabric choices that best suit your dress vision and help you visualize it. This is when you will see a personalized sketch so you can fully visualize your beautiful gown.
Step 4
Design Approval & Production
Contract signed | Production of the dress - 4 to 6 Months.
Once all is approved, the construction of the dress will begin! Alkhalili will be checking on the production of the dress throughout the whole process.
Step 5
Meet Your Dream Dress
Once the dress is finished and ready, we will schedule your first technical fitting, where you’ll light up the room wearing your custom wedding dress for the first time!
Step 6
Alterations Process
(Optional at additional charge)
You can from there start your alterations as needed - extra package to be purchased. Watch your wedding gown dreams become a reality over the course of several dedicated fittings. This is to do the final touch up on the dress so that it fits perfectly on you, be it adjusting the straps, cups, etc.
