Your Shopping Experience

Find Your Perfect Mother-of-the-Bride or Mother-of-the-Groom Dress

Personalized Service

Once you book your appointment, we're here for you until your loved ones say, "I do."

Professional Curation

When you walk into our wedding dress store in Dunlap, Illinois, you will sit down with your stylist–and our shop owner–Rachel. She will review the relevant wedding details with you, and the two of you will discuss what you’re looking for in a dress. Then, the real fun begins. You will peruse the sample dresses and pick your favorites for an initial round of try-ons. Once you and your stylist have a sense of what looks spectacular--and feels comfortable--on your body, she'll pull other suggestions to expand upon your vision. 

Convenient Appointments

We work hard to ensure that your experience is as seamless as possible. That’s why we offer appointments six days a week and will book into the evening upon request. Just text Rachel at 309-258-4222, and she will make it happen!

Inclusive Sizing

At Down the Aisle, we believe that everyone deserves to feel beautiful–regardless of the shape of their body. Our owner Rachel takes this belief very seriously. She thoughtfully curates each season’s sample collection with the comfort and beauty of both straight- and plus-sized bodies in mind. Unlike other stores that encourage you to “imagine” how a small sample dress will fit when you buy it in your size, we carry up to a size 30 in store samples to take out the guesswork. You can be confident that you will look and feel amazing in one of our designer mother-of-the-wedding gowns.
