Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from boutiques comparing CloudBridal and BridalLive.
Is CloudBridal a good alternative to BridalLive?
For many boutiques, yes. Both are built specifically for bridal shops and cover appointments, inventory, special orders, and point of sale. CloudBridal stands out on transparent published pricing, plans that include the essentials (client portal and rentals are part of the plan rather than paid add-ons), month-to-month billing, and the freedom to keep your existing payment processor. The best way to know is the 30-day free trial — no credit card required.
Can I move my data from BridalLive to CloudBridal?
Yes — our done-for-you migration service moves your customers, inventory, appointments, and sales history into CloudBridal for you. It’s a one-time $750, and we credit $250 back toward your subscription. Contact us and we’ll confirm the details for your shop before anything begins.
How much does CloudBridal cost compared to BridalLive?
CloudBridal publishes every price: $80/month (Basic), $120/month (Core), and $180/month (Ultimate), with no setup fees and no long-term contract. BridalLive does not publish base plan pricing — you’ll need to contact their sales team for a quote — and features like the client portal ($110/month) and tuxedo rentals ($99/month) are priced as separate add-ons.
Does CloudBridal have a client portal like BridalLive?
Yes. The CloudBridal client portal gives each bride her own page with her order, payment status, documents, and upcoming appointments — branded to your boutique. It’s included with the Ultimate plan rather than sold as a separate monthly add-on.
Do I have to switch payment processors?
No. CloudBridal integrates with Stripe for fully-integrated payments, but you can also keep the processor you already use in-store, or mix both — for example, Stripe for online booking fees and your existing terminal for in-store sales.
Can I try CloudBridal before deciding to switch?
Yes. Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial that you can set up yourself in minutes — no credit card and no sales call required. Many switching boutiques run the trial alongside their current system before committing.
