Melissa Rycroft's Wedding Dress

If you saw any pictures of Melissa and Tye's wedding you were probably swept up in all the romance. Especially with her beautiful dress. She chose the perfect bridal gown for her destination setting: soft, romantic, and easy to move in. And you can capture this same feeling because we have the exact dress that Melissa wore. We actually have already been getting calls for it.

I love how flattering it is, and wait until you try it on! It's so soft and light you could literally dance the night away without breaking a sweat! And check out those cute Bridesmaids dresses, we have those too!

15th Anniversary Party

Because we are celebrating our 15th year in business (starting in Dec and running the entire year of 2010) we decided to start the celebration off right with a party. We held the party right in our store on Sunday Dec 6th, and we all had a blast. It was so wonderful to be supported by our business associates, friends, and family. At certain parts during the party I just looked around and felt so thankful for all of the people in our lives that love and support us!


We had an amazing cheesecake from Simma's, which if you've never had Simma's cheesecake you are missing out. Because we wanted all of our guests to be entertained we had a company come in with a roulette wheel and poker tables to teach everybody how to play. ( And of course we gambled fake money not real!) Plus we had Elizabeth from Atelier Photography bring in her photo booth equipment so everyone could have a remembrance of the event. Which was hilarious because she had a box of props for the photos and everyone went a little nuts!

Thank you to all that came to celebrate with us, especially those who drove a distance to be here. We are so thankful to everybody in our lives, because without our staff, family, friends, and business partners we would not be here today celebrating our 15th year in this business. We truly love what we do and everybody in our lives makes it very possible to be the successful business we are today!

Amelishan Bridal In Las Vegas

We just got back from a seminar in Las Vegas put on by Mon Cheri Bridal, and we had a blast. We got to take a tour of Vegas as well as sit in on sales seminars, meet the editors from Brides Magazine and The Knot, and get a little taste of what's to come for the bridal industry as a whole. And we are pumped from all that we learned and heard!
We feel that it is so important to stay updated in the bridal industry and to make sure that we offer our customers the very best in customer service, fashions, and information for planning their weddings. So 4 of us took the hike to Las Vegas for a grooling 3 day seminar that covers everything imaginable to stay on top of things in the bridal and fashion industry!
What we took home was not only valuable for our business but will be even more valuable for our customers as we will always stay updated with information and trends.
And of course we mixed work with a little bit of play and had a chance to see what Las Vegas was all about.
