We are a little late on this post, but we are so excited to share with you guys our feature in Brazos Valley Bride Magazine Spring 2019 Edition!

We really embraced the “Modern Cinderella” theme and all of the vendors involved did a wonderful job at portraying a fairy tale wedding! From sparkle ballgowns to sleek fit-and-flare to long sleeves and blush, we really ran with the theme by capturing princess-like features.

Even the dreamy table decor gave us all the feels of romance!

Of course, we must talk about this work of art created by Top That! Cake Designs!

It doesn’t get more Cinderella than this cake!

We are so honored to be the featured bridal shop in this edition and it is always a blast working with other talented local vendors! Swing by our shop to pick up your free copy!

The End!

Brides are always going to be busy planning their perfect day and sometimes an important aspect of their day slips past them: their dress! Whether you are wondering when to purchase a dress, how long they take to come in, or even if you just need alterations, we will go over all these topics to make sure that you are prepared for your big day.

The first step is knowing when to purchase your dress. After you’ve said “yes” to your dream dress, we take your measurements and then place an order with the designer for the size with the closest fit. The sizes offered are based on standard bust, waist, and hip measurements and may not match up exactly with your body. For example, you might be a size 8 in the bust, a 6 in the waist, and a 10 in the hips. In this case, we would order the largest size and then alter the rest by taking in the bust and the waist as needed.

Designers don’t normally keep a large volume of dresses in stock. This is why they typically require four to six months from the time the gown begins production to the time it ships. After your gown arrives, we typically require at least eight weeks to alter your dress to ensure you get the perfect fit.

With this in mind, we suggest the perfect time to purchase your wedding gown is at least nine months prior to the wedding date or bridal portraits, whichever is earlier. This helps to ensure that the dress will be here in time and that any customizations/altering can be completed in time without incurring a rush fee.

If you are a bride with questions regarding timeline, ask your stylist for suggestions during your appointment. In the end, it is your day and you should feel at ease and assured that you will walk down the aisle in the dress of your dreams.

Wow…what an incredible turnout we had at our ribbon cutting last week! It is humbling to see such a fantastic show of support for our new business and we are thrilled to be a part of such a thriving community! We have enjoyed a very busy first three months of being open and we look forward to continuing to help brides find the gown of their dreams.

A special thank you to the BCS Chamber of Commerce, D’vine Cuisine, Donut Darlin’, Thomas Ross Photography, Bo Miles, Kelly Haverland, Sophie Gray, and Sam Taylor for helping us put this event together. Each of you served critical part that made this event so special.

Here’s to many years of success doing what we love!

With the recent release of the Fall 2018 Brazos Valley Bridal Magazine, it is time for us to begin working on the next issue to be released in February! This past Tuesday, we were able to partner with some fantastic vendors to produce the photo shoot for the Spring issue! Check out some live action videos and images on our Instagram story highlight titled BVB 2019 Mag.

In case you couldn’t tell from the cake and lovely decor, the theme for this shoot was “Modern Day Cinderella.” We were so excited when we heard this was the theme because let’s face it, we have no shortage of princess fairy tale gowns! Enjoy the sneak peak below and stay tuned for the release of this next issue!
