We are thrilled and honored to be a part of the historical Georgetown community and encourage you to plan your bridal shopping experience around the many exciting businesses that surround The Square.

The Shop

At Coreena’s Bridal, it is all about the bride! Our shop was carefully redesigned from the ground up with the bride in mind. Everything from our spacious fitting rooms to our private appointment areas, suitable for large entourages, is to ensure your special day is everything you’ve dreamed of. The first yes was an incredible moment in your life, and we’re here for the #2ndYes, which we hope is equally special.

The Staff

Coreena Ferrata – Owner

Coreena was born in Naples, Italy, as her parents were serving overseas in the US Air Force. Soon after, her family relocated to Mckinney, Texas where she attended Prosper High School. Coreena moved to College Station in 2010 to attend Texas A&M where she met and fell in love with her husband Nick towards the end of her third year.

Just prior to graduating in 2014, Nick proposed to Coreena at the Aggie Ring Plaza the day after she earned her Aggie ring. They enjoyed a beautiful destination wedding in Cabo San Lucas in June of 2015. Coreena’s hunt for a one-of-a-kind beach wedding gown inspired her to completely redesign the dress she purchased. Since then, she began designing gowns for close family and friends who also desired a couture look.

In 2017, Coreena decided to put designing on hold to pursue a new dream—opening a full service bridal boutique. Coreena’s personal experience of shopping for her own wedding dress sparked her passion for helping brides, with the ultimate goal of providing a unique selection of designer gowns that offer a couture look for an affordable price. More importantly, offering that possibility in College Station.

After one year in business, Coreena’s Bridal expanded their building to accommodate more brides. Now, two years after launching her boutique, Coreena is excited to reach more brides across Texas with the second location of Coreena’s Bridal in Georgetown.

Cara - Store Manager

Cara joined Coreena’s Bridal as the Georgetown Store Manager in November of 2022. She was born and raised in a small town in Colorado, but now resides in Liberty Hill, TX. Cara is married to her Husband Mike, and they have a dog, Daisy Duke, who goes everywhere with them. You can find Cara on her time off outside at local restaurants, country concerts, or at home watching her reality TV shows.

Cara has worked in sales in the Austin area for over 10 years now for companies like The Knot and Wedding Wire. When her own bridal journey brought her to Coreena’s, she fell in love with all things bridal. She truly loves love and wants every single bride to get the feeling she experienced when they find their dress.

Cara doesn’t know a stranger. Each person who walks through our doors becomes instant family as they receive her warm welcome. She will go above and beyond for our brides to make sure that they have a truly unforgettable experience.  So stop in, and say hello! She can’t wait to help you find your dream gown!

Erin - Lead Stylist

Originally from Houston, Erin has lived several places around the country since she was eight years old. Her one constant during her moves was gymnastics.  She appreciated that it was a great way to meet friends and stay fit.

Prior to moving to Georgetown over the summer of 2020, Erin lived Los Angeles where she worked in the entertainment industry.  She thrived in a highly competitive environment where she learned how to work with a variety of people and address each person’s needs.

Erin began taking in Pilates in 2015 and it quickly became a passion of hers.  She currently teaches as a certified Pilates instructor. She is constantly on the move and loves to hike, workout and travel.  Erin eagerly joined the Coreena’s Bridal team for the store’s opening in the Fall of 2020, excited to work with brides and bring their bridal vision to life. She carries a joy that is contagious to all staff as well as our brides. Her many 5 star Google reviews are a true testament to the elevated experience she provides.

London - Stylist / Social Media Manager

London was born and raised in the Austin area. Throughout high school she was a part of the swim and water polo team where she was able to express her competitive side and learn the value of hard work and perseverance. During that time, she also began modeling and coupled with her first job as a dress stylist at a prom and pageant store, she found her love for styling and fashion. Her passion grew after being in the industry and watching how much confidence and joy a dress can bring someone!

London has always been infatuated with the bridal industry and her love only grew deeper after her own wedding in 2021. She joined the Coreena’s Bridal team in January of 2022 and quickly became part of the family. In August of 2022, London became the first employee to run the social media accounts for the Georgetown location. Her positive outlook and willingness to learn make her a cherished member of the Coreena’s Bridal family. London’s favorite part about being a stylist is helping brides find joy and confidence within themselves when they find “the one”.

Mariel - Stylist

Born and raised in Austin, Texas, Mariel has always enjoyed keeping it weird. Growing up, her favorite movies were Cinderella, The Addams Family, and Lord of the Rings- three very distinct worlds that directly shaped and influenced her love for theatre and costuming!

At the age of 11, she decided to begin studying acting and singing and has performed in numerous productions ever since (including Cinderella and the Addams Family!)

Mariel is known for thinking outside of the box with her brides by suggesting creative and unique styling techniques through the use of accessories and dress add-on pieces.

If there is anything Mariel has learned as an actor- it’s the power of a beautiful dress. Her goal as a bridal stylist is to help her brides feel as confident as Morticia Addams, as ethereal as Arwen, and as magical as Cinderella in their wedding dress.
Mariel looks forward to every appointment, and can’t wait to work a little magic with you at Coreena’s!

Rachael - Stylist

Rachael is a Texan native but has lived  in numerous places as a military brat. After earning her bachelor degree in accounting and finance, she joined the US Air Force but took leave shortly after to prepare for the birth of her daughter.

After working at a finance firm for some time, Rachael realized her work-life balance wasn’t working for her new role as a mother. At the same time, she was planning a wedding when fate brought her to Coreena’s Bridal to find her dream dress. As a result of her experience as a bride, she fell in love this store and the wedding industry.

Rachael took the leap and made the switch to working as a bridal stylist at Coreena’s which has awarded her the family time she craved while also discovering a new passion as a stylist.

Her positivity and eagerness to learn make her a strong addition to the team. As much as Rachael enjoys learning more about the industry, she loves establishing meaningful connections with each and every bride.

Her passion derives from her desire to help people by giving them a voice and simultaneously ensuring confidence.

Elle’s introduction to the fashion industry began as captain of her dance team in college where she was awarded the opportunity to style and design the team uniforms. As a stylist for Coreena’s Bridal, she enjoys making sure brides are comfortable throughout the shopping process as she knows this can be an overwhelming new experience for many. She finds that creating a genuine and pure experience for her brides is the most rewarding part of her job.
