How much time for dress appointments?

I officially made my first dress appointment last night!! Eeee!!

I made an appointment for the 4/7 at noon in Commack at Helen's. I also want to make an appointment for the same day at Bridal Suite of Bay Shore which is about 20 minutes away (probably less). My question for you ladies is.. how much time should I allot for the 1st appointment to take so I can schedule the next? Has anybody been to Helens and know exactly how they do it there?

TIA!

I found that they usually let you stay about an hour per appointment.

I would make your appointment an hour and a half after your first one.

U should make it 2 hours after ur first- in case ur first appointment is 1.5 hours it gives you time to commute to the next location and some extra min. in case there is traffic

Thanks so much ladies! I'll probably make the second appointment 2:30 so even if we have extra time in between we can just grab food or something. Thanks for all the advice!

I am going to my first appointment soon too!! I was also told each bride is given an hour and can expect to try on at least 8 dresses. Ff the attendant can spend closer to an hour and a half with you, she could if she has no booking right after you. This is what NY Bridal Boutique/Outlet in farmingdale said.

Most appointments are 1.5 hours BUT I have been to appointments where if there was no one coming in after me they let me stay and it turned into 3 hours(which was great). So leave some space and get food in between if anything :)
