It's our Anniversary!!

Some days I feel like we just opened yesterday...but  this Friday we will celebrate our 6 year anniversary! It has been quite a journey filled with so many amazing people and memories, that I can hardly wait to see what the next 6 years will bring. When Jess & I decided to get in to this business, we talked alot about "our brides" and what type of experience we wanted to give them. We hadn't met any of them yet, but somehow we knew that this would be about so much more then "selling" a bride her wedding gown.What we didn't know was that we would not only meet beautiful brides with inspiring stories, but that we would make lasting friendships that go way beyond the walls of this shop! We could not have gotten this far without the support of our customers, and for that we are very Thankful!
I could not finish this entry with out including an huge Thank you to our family & friends, and we can't forget all of the girls that work here with us every day! (Lexi, Diane, Sharon & Cathy - We love and adore you all!)  The support and help from all of you has meant more to us then you can imagine! 
Some pictures from over the years....
Jess with Brandi, once a Bride to be....now a recruit for painting the shop! (also, a true friend who attended a New Kids on the Block concert with me when my husband was in Iraq! - That's love!)

Sarah & I at a Bridal Expo in 2009. She came in to the shop on a sales call, and somehow ended up as "our bride" and now our unofficial spokeswoman! (I think you are about 1 dress away from your pizza party!)

Designer Spotlight - Jasmine Bridal!

As the New Year starts to roll, the new Bridal gowns for 2012 are coming in, and we could not be more excited! We are going to showcase some of the amazing new designs by Jasmine Bridal.


This first gown is a sweet ballgown style with a gorgeous crystal belt at the waist. It is a soft Tulle fabric with a chapel train. Very soft and romantic!
This gown is more is made of organza and the tiers are very flattering! I personally love the bling at the waist, it definitely draws the eye in to the small of your waist.
This dress is made with Luminous Taffeta, making it very lightweight and a great option for summer weddings.
Another gorgeous dress in Taffeta. It is a fitted silhouette with a super fun skirt.   
 Jasmine Bridal has been making Brides beautiful since 1985. They are an outstanding company to work with, they are willing & able to make many custom changes to their gowns. Make an appointment today to stop in and check out more of their stunning dresses in person!
