Services
Bridal Gowns
We offer a curated selection of lightweight bridal gowns, including A-line, column, and fit-and-flare styles. Our inventory focuses on modern designs that complement diverse body types while prioritizing comfort and ease of movement. Clients receive personalized guidance to find dresses that align with their vision and wedding theme.
Alterations
Our alteration services cater to both in-store and external purchases, with priority given to bridal clients. We handle minor adjustments like hems and zippers, though we no longer alter heavy ball gowns due to health constraints. Quotes are provided during consultations based on complexity.
Tuxedo Rentals
We provide tuxedo rentals through partnerships with Milroy's Tuxedos, offering coordinated styles that match bridesmaid dresses. Packages include shirts, vests, pants, jackets, and ties, with optional accessories like shoes and handkerchiefs available for additional fees.
Bridesmaid Dresses
Our bridesmaid dress collection features DaVinci Bridal's diverse color palette and fabric options. Clients can mix and match styles or select uniform designs to create cohesive bridal party looks. We recommend ordering 4-6 months in advance to ensure availability.
Wedding Gown Preservation
Through our partnership with the Wedding Gown Preservation Company, we offer professional cleaning and preservation services using internationally recognized methods. Clients receive preservation boxes to mail in their gowns, which are then cleaned, preserved, and returned for long-term storage.

Called to setup a last minute appointment. woman was actually super rude. " you NEED an appointment way ahead of time thats why its on our website" um ok that was unnecessary you a should have just said when your next one was available so I could take my biz elsewhere without the rudeness. Was willing to schedule an apt way out but the rude attitude let me know we are not doing business with you. Honestly after the call we had less than zero interest in going there. Shops like this are rebounding from covid. being a B**** over the phone isnt helping just fyi.

Arlene was wonderful! She provides great personal customer service with everything! She got all my dresses ready for me to just slip right on and she even called the dress company to see how long it would take for a dress to be here! Great store, lots of beautiful dresses and very reasonably priced! Highly recommend you go there!
