Belvoglio Bridals
BEL VOGLIO Bridal, designed for sophisticated, resourceful, and forward-thinking bride. BEL VOGLIO is founded on the belief that you can have anything you want by looking beautiful on your wedding day without breaking the bank – something we’ve always believed, too!
We have made a point to cut out designer markups and retail costs to pass along the savings to brides. Our high-quality made-to-measure wedding gowns fall under $1,500 – $ 6000, landing these into our affordable wedding dresses category.
We are not just inclusive with pricing, but inclusive with design, sizing, and style.
We use real Swarovski crystals, intricate hand embellishments, luxurious fabrics, and timeless details to create pieces that transcend time.
The ethereal element is ever present in each style with a twist of deep appreciation of all the delicate moments of the ceremony. All Bel voglio gowns are made-to-measure. This means the dress will be fit to you, rather than you fitting into the dress.
“ For our Bel voglio Bridals collections, we believe in the details — beading, floral appliqués, dramatic backs, and perfect draping. Every gown features details to set it apart and make the bride shine. Brides deserve to be at their most beautiful, and our aim is not only to design and produce the perfect gown but to provide daily inspiration for our brides-to-be.

Order Process
The company begins to process and produce your choice of outfit once our customer decides on the dress style, color, size, and any other necessary dress information.
When the company have agreed with the production team, which includes stylist, designer and the tailors on the specifics of your dress, the complete order is then confirmed and submitted for production.
Since all dresses are made on order, a 60% non-refundable deposit is required before we can begin production. Also please note that when ordering our custom bridal gowns, your order is not complete until a Bel Voglio receipt confirms your order.
Fabric Variations And Custom Orders
Please note that due to variations in dye-lots, fabric colors may vary and may not be the exact color you chose from the color card or sample you provide. If your custom order fabrics based on a previous design seen or discussed is reviewed with Bel Voglio.
Please note that there may be slight variations to the reproduction of this fabric from their various vendors.
Sizing
The company will work with all concerned brides to decide on the best sizes for them by comparing their measurements with our sizing chart. If any of the agreed measurements are taken elsewhere by the client and altered without the company’s supervision, the client is held responsible for those measurements and their accuracy. We recommend choosing larger sizes if you fall in between sizes; as dresses can only be taken in, not let out. If our client chooses to order a size that is not recommended by the company’s standard measurement, the client must sign off on that size.
Bel Voglio as a company is not responsible for any dress that does not fit after a client has signed off on the size. If a new dress is needed due to incorrect sizing, the client will be charged full price for the re-order.
