What are the payment options?
There are 3 Payment Options: Bundle Payment - You will pay a total fee of $1995 ($285 a course) as one lump sum. The entire bundle (7 courses) will be available for 6 months, beginning the first day that you start Course 1. Our goal is for all 7 courses to be completed in a minimum of 6 weeks and a max of 6 months.
Individual Courses - You will pay as you go. The fee for each course is $285. We ask that you take each course in the order in which it was assigned. This will only help you in the long run. If you go out of order, you will find it more difficult to complete each course. Going out of order is also frowned upon from Home Office.
Payment Plan - You will pay a total fee of $1995 over a 6 month period. This brakes down to $332.50 a month. By choosing this option, we allow you to complete your course in the first 6 weeks to 6 months, in hopes that you would be ready to host your first trunk show by month 6.
When was Build-A-Bride™ founded?
Established in 2008, Build-A-Bride™ continuously rewrites the rules of traditional bridal shopping by offering our exclusive and inclusive in-home appointments (launch 2018, pre-pandemic) and now our nation-wide trunk shows, pop-up locations, and Build-A-Bride™ Owner/Operator ran stores.
What is the starting commission?
The Build-A-Bride™ base commission is 5% from the sale of our Build-A-Bride™ dresses, separates, add ons, veils, or accessories for any lead that Home Office or a Build-A-Bride™ store Owner/Operator gives you as a Bridal Curator™. If you bring in the lead and close the sale either through an in-home appointment, trunk show, or pop-up location, you will receive 10% commission from the sale of our Build-A-Bride™ dresses, separates, add ons, veils, or accessories.
Do I have to complete all 7 courses to be considered for a position as a Bridal Curator™?
Yes and you must do them in the order in which they were developed. These courses are on a drip schedule. On average, it takes 8 weeks to complete our Masterclass.
If I do not want to become a Bridal Curator™ can I still take the Masterclass?
Of course. The Business Of Bridal Fashion was created for anyone wanting to learn more about the bridal, fashion, or wedding industry. Many of the principals taught in our course can be applied to other businesses practices.
If I do not want to become a Bridal Curator™ can I pick and choose my courses?
