Great question! Different boutiques may approach their sales in their own unique ways, so here at Diamonds & Pearls, we define it as: a Sample Sale is when a boutique offers their gently-used dress samples for purchase at great discount prices in as-is condition. This can be a terrific opportunity for brides with shorter planning timelines or smaller budgets to grab a beautiful gown at a bargain price!

Dresses that have been added to the sample sale are typically discontinued designs, which means that we are no longer able to order them for future brides. In order to make room for new designs, we offer our previous samples at clearance pricing.

Our sample sale dresses are gently-used, store-owned floor samples, and are priced according to their age and possible repair needs. Cleaning and repairs are included in our in-house alterations.

Prices vary from $199 to $999. Scroll below to see our available dresses and learn more about their size, color, and final sale price. (Note: information is currently optimized for desktop or browser viewing. Mobile-friendly interface is coming soon!)

Certain styles may still be in the vault, or have not yet been added to the website. Please contact us for more information or schedule an appointment to explore our available collection.

Shopping online and unsure what your bridal size would be? Typically, your bridal size is 1-2 sizes larger than your normal dress size.
