      How it works


      Shopping at GMD is easy and in 4 easy steps you can wear the dresses you dream of.

      ORDER When you see a dress you love, select your size, number of nights and event date. Click 'ADD TO BAG' Then you can then continue shopping or go to the shopping bag in the top right hand corner to complete your order.

      RETURN Pop your dress back in the box, attach the pre paid label and drop it into your local Post office. Easy!


    • Placing an Order

      Placing an Order

      Does GMD have a shop to visit?
      No, we are purely an online rental boutique and we don't have a physical location where you can come and try on dresses. All products are delivered to you.

      When do I place my order?
      There is no specific time in which you have to place your order before your event. If could be 3 months before, or 3 days. Of course, the sooner you order the higher the chance that your favourite dresses will be available for your event date, but don't worry if you do it last miniute, we send all dresses using a Next Day delivery service.

      How long can I borrow a dress for?
      On the website you select the option to borrow each dress for either 2 nights or 7 nights. But if you want to hang onto it for longer because you need time to accessorize, or perhaps you are going on holiday, that is no problem! Just email us at enquiries@girlmeetsdress.com and we can either renew it for you, or give you a quote for a longer rental period.


    • Trying dresses on

      Trying dresses on

      Can I try on the dresses?
      Yes. There are 2 options:
      Option 1: (Standard for all orders) When the dresses are delivered for your event you will try them on.
      Option 2: If your event is more than 30 days away from the date you order you can opt to use our ADVANCE TRY ON service. You will receive the dresses asap and choose one to have re-delivered for the event. This service is £30 per order (non refundable) and you can tick this option at the checkout.

      How many dresses can I try on?
      There is a limit of 3 dresses per order. With some of the large dresses with lots of material this could be limited to 1 or 2. We will deliver them to you and after you try them on you will tell us which one you have decided to wear for your event. You will then keep all of the dresses until after the event and return them in the same box. Once we receive them back we will refund you for the dresses which you did not wear.


    • Delivery

      Delivery

      When will my dresses be delivered?

      Where does GMD deliver to?
      We currently deliver to the United Kingdon, Ireland, Jersey, Guernsey, the Isle of Man and the Isle of Wight.

      Can my delivery address be different to my billing address?

Returns & Refunds


How do I return my dress?
Returning the dresses you've enjoyed is quick and easy. Follow the simple steps below to return a dress. If you are returning more than one item, they need to be sent back in the same box.

1. Simply pack the items in their original packaging and stick the Girl Meets Dress return address label provided inside the box and fill out the return form enclosed.

2. Drop your box at the local Post Office before 4.30pm. No additional fees or postage will be needed. Please ensure you keep your receipt safe as this is your proof of postage and has the tracking number. If an item doesn't arrive back with us and you cannot prove you sent it, we will charge you for the loss of the item.

3. All packages are on a 'Next Day' service so we will receive the box back the next working day before 1pm and will email you to confirm receipt / Take the next steps / Process the refund etc.


If you are the 1st person to borrow a certain dress you will notice that it has some retail tags attached. To return the dress for a refund all tags MUST be left attatched.

...But if you wear the dress - obviously please feel free to remove the tags to avoid an embarassing social situation!


What if I receive a dress but it doesn't fit?
Once the courier arrives at your door and you have signed for the package, please try on your Girl Meets Dress items.
If none of them are suitable and you require a full refund you MUST post the box back to us the same day before 4.30pm from your local Post Office. If for some reason you cannot do this please get in touch.
If you are receiving the dresses for an ADVANCE TRY ON, the same applies, and dresses should not be kept overnight. Fill out the form enclosed and tell us your decision on the dresses.


When will I receive my refund?
After we have received your dress / dresses back and refund request, we will process the refund and notify you via e-mail.
The refund will be in the same form of payment that you originally used.
Refunds will be dealt with within 7 business days of us receiving your return.
Please note card refunds may take up to 10 business days for your bank to complete, depending on their processing time. This can vary greatly between card issuers, and unfortunately we are unable to influence this.
Your refund outcome will depend on the Items being in the original condition they were sent to you minus of course any minor accidental damage of they were worn.


What if I miss my return date/time?
Please inform us at customersupport@girlmeetsdress.com as soon as this happens to avoid being charged late fees unnecessarily.
Should an item not be returned within the pre-determined date, we reserve the right to charge your card accordingly.
You will be charged late fees to the value of the stated rental fee of the dress depending how late you return it since you are preventing someone else from looking fabulous at her event. For example, if you keep a dress 2 nights longer and this dress is £49.00 for 2 nights, you will be charged £49.00.
You can, however, extend your rental time, if the dress is available. Simply get in touch to check.


Order Cancellation Policy
If you wish to cancel your order please let us know as soon as you can by contacting customer service on customersupport@girlmeetsdress.com and we will be happy to take care of it for you.

If you have not yet received and tried on your dresses, we will happily issue you a full refund up to 4 weeks before your event date minus a £20.00 cancellation fee.

Within the 4 weeks before your event, GMD credit will be issued for the value of the 1 individual dress with the highest value in your order. The remaining amount will be refunded back onto the card you used.

Once you have tried on and confirmed that you wish to wear a dress, including advance try ons, any following cancellations are not eligible for a refund or GMD credit.


If you are unclear on any of these terms or have any questions please get in touch by contacting customer service on customersupport@girlmeetsdress.com
