CLAUSES

1.) If a dress you want to purchase is under contract for try-on, the purchase will take priority. Our client will be notified immediately and have the option to choose a different dress for try-on.

If the purchase is within one month of an existing rental date the lady purchasing will be notified. They lady may purchase the dress, but we feel the right thing to do is also honor the existing Rental Contract. We could not last minute do that to a lady. We feel this is the fairest way to handle this situation and thus far it has worked out nicely. ENCORE BALLROOM COUTURE LLC will pay for the cleaning and shipping costs of the dress to the new owner at the conclusion of the rental. Please submit the Purchase Contract online and submit. Once your payment has been processed and the dress has been returned from the rental and cleaned, we will email you the tracking number of the dress once shipped.

If the rental is over one month away, the purchase will take priority. The other client will be notified immediately and have the option to choose a different dress, or receive a full refund of your rental fee.
