Buy Your Dream Dress On Budget

What do you do when you find your ultimate dream wedding gown and it is way over your budget? Start shopping for it's twin at half the price!

It's so difficult when you fall in love with a gown only to find out that it is not within your budget. We deal with this all the time. Brides bring in a photo of a dress they have to have but is too far out of their "dress budget". And we help them find something very similar, if not identical by another designer for less. I recently received the newest Bridal Guide magazine in the mail, and fell in love with the cover dress! I love it's simplicity and the one shoulder is so important in bridal right now. The cover dress is designed by Val Stefani and retails for about $2,000. If that's a bit above your dress budget we have an identical dress for less.




Pictured above is our sister dress to the Val Stefani. It retails for $895.00 in our store. We are so happy when we can help a Bride find her dream dress on the budget that she has already set for herself. So if you have something in mind already, but it's a bit too much. Just bring in a picture when you set up an appointment and your consultant can help you find something very similar for less!! And if your interested in this dress, ask for #17913 when you come in!

Bridal Gown Blowout-2 Days Away!

Mark your calenders and get ready! One of our craziest Bridal Gown sales is 2 days away! Our annual bridal gown blowout is Sunday Jan 31st at The Washington County Bridal Show. As I am getting the dresses ready I am amazed at some of these prices. Now is the perfect time to buy your dress, especially if you want a good deal!

Dresses are cash and carry, which means you do take them home that day. And we do have dressing rooms and mirrors for you to use. The sale is for bridal show ticket holders, but it is totally worth the price of a ticket.

So come join the craziness, we're already getting pumped for it!

Golden Globes Review


I love watching award shows because you can get a glimpse into the world of fashion and what we will see in ready wear and weddings the following season. This years Golden Globes was definitely paired down a bit as far as the glitz goes, but they definitely didn't lack in the glamour category! I loved the 30's and 40" influence on the dresses. And feel that we are going to see quite a few of the new trends in the Bridal Industry.



Two of the dresses that I would love to see replicated for Bridal are Kate Hudson's and Penelope Cruz's dresses. I would love to see sleeves come back in such a fashionable way and I love the design work and the crumb catcher bodice on Kate's dress.

We didn't see a lot of color on the red carpet but those that did wear color stood out and looked very refreshing! I loved Ginnifer Goodwin's dress color and design. This color is so hot right now for bridal party's! I would love to get a hold of this dress to wear it to my next wedding or event. And talk about being flattering on many body types, just about anyone can wear this style!

I think there was such a debate over Drew Barrymore's dress. Like I said on The Morning Blend, she took a risk, unlike a lot of celebrity's that night. I love that the dress speaks out and is a piece of art work. She glowed that night and everything down to her hair and makeup looked perfect!



One thing that I noticed about the celebrities and the red carpet is that all of them had glammed up hair. I love the look that hair stylist are going for now, they are channeling old Hollywood Glamour! And this definitely will be a trend in weddings to come!
