Appointment scheduling

Appointment Scheduling Built for Bridal Boutiques

Brides shop for appointments at 10pm, not during store hours. CloudBridal gives them a beautiful booking page that works around the clock — while you stay in control of rooms, stylists, and schedules.

Online booking

Let Brides Book While You Sleep

Most brides research shops in the evening — after your phone stops being answered. With CloudBridal, a booking link on your website or Instagram bio replaces the voicemail box. Brides pick an appointment type, see real availability, and lock in a time in under a minute.

Availability is computed from your actual capacity — fitting rooms, staff schedules, and per-day overrides — so a bride can never book a slot you can't actually serve.

  • Booking page brandable to your boutique, linkable from anywhere
  • Appointment types you define — bridal, bridesmaids, fittings, pickups
  • Real-time availability based on rooms, staff, and schedule overrides
  • Automatic email confirmations with reschedule and cancel links

No-show protection

Deposits and Card-on-File That Stop No-Shows

An empty fitting room on a Saturday costs far more than any deposit. CloudBridal lets you require a booking fee or a card on file per appointment type — so serious brides book, and no-shows think twice.

Payments run through the integrated Stripe connection and are recorded automatically on the customer's profile, so there's nothing to reconcile later.

  • Require a deposit, a card on file, or nothing — per appointment type
  • Booking fees collected securely through Stripe at the moment of booking
  • Payments recorded automatically against the customer profile

Arrive prepared

Know Your Bride Before She Walks In

The best appointments start before the bride arrives. Customer registration collects the details you actually want — wedding date, budget, style preferences, party size — with questions you fully control. Answers land on the customer profile automatically, so your stylist walks into the room already knowing the story.

  • Fully customizable registration questions
  • Responses populate the customer profile — no re-typing
  • Favorite items collected ahead of the visit, so you can pull gowns early
