Most marketplaces treat every category the same way — one commission rate, one generic listing template, regardless of what you actually make. That rarely fits bridal makers and bespoke dressmakerswell. Airehaus doesn’t charge commission at all, and the product catalogue is flexible enough to represent custom wedding dresses and bridal gowns properly rather than forcing it into a one-size-fits-all listing.
Why custom wedding dresses and bridal gowns needs more than a generic listing
Buyers choosing custom wedding dresses and bridal gowns aren’t comparing on price alone — a bride is buying a one-off, emotionally significant piece and wants to see the maker behind it, not a faceless listing. A storefront with your name, your story and your full catalogue does more to earn that trust than a listing buried among thousands of unrelated products on a mass marketplace.
Built around how you actually sell
- Variants that fit the craft. Set up bust, waist and hip measurements as made-to-measure variants, alongside fabric and colourway options — all on one product, not a separate listing for every option.
- Your own Stripe. Checkout is a direct charge on your own connected Stripe account. You keep 100% of the item price and the shipping.
- Shipping on your terms. For custom wedding dresses and bridal gowns, that usually means a garment box or dry-clean bag rather than a standard parcel, and buyers expect a clear timeline for a made-to-order gown. Airehaus holds no carrier keys and organises no parcels — the rate and courier are entirely your call.
- Your own storefront and dashboard. A shop page that carries your name, plus orders, fulfilment and tracking in one place.
Zero commission, one flat membership
Airehaus charges a single flat membership of around $29 a month and takes zero commission. Whether you sell one piece or twenty in a month, the platform’s cost to you stays exactly the same — unlike a percentage-based marketplace, where your best month is also its best month.

What you need to start
Two things: an active membership and a connected Stripe account. From there, build your storefront, set up your catalogue with the variants that make sense for custom wedding dresses and bridal gowns, set your shipping, and start taking orders.

The bottom line
Bridal makers and bespoke dressmakers don’t need a generic listing page that takes a cut of every sale. Airehaus gives you a complete, independent business — your own Stripe, storefront, catalogue and shipping — built to represent custom wedding dresses and bridal gowns properly, plugged into a marketplace that brings buyers to you.
