Appointments

Although we work by appointment, we can usually fit a bride in even if she calls the same day. Don't be afraid to call to see if we have an opening especially in the Fall. We have a wonderful inventory and many gowns on order ready to ship--you don't have to wait 12 weeks for shipment. Call and make an appointment to try on about 10-15 styles in less than an hour. We assist you every step of the way.

Gown Shopping with Mom

Who do you want to take shopping? Take Mom first. Good friend or sister second. You get better input without too much input. Best to leave small children with a sitter they get too restless and you feel too hurried. Make this FUN!

If you are thinking maybe HE will pop the question over the holidays you might want to visit our outlet to get the best selection before all the other brides receive their rings over the Thanksgiving weekend. You probably won't have time to shop for a gown over that weekend with all the other pre-Christmas sales, so if you come in now you will be ahead of the curve.

This gown looks fabulous with the popular Russian net birdcage veil.

Shopping for wedding gown

You can become "snow blind" looking for gowns. Don't over tax your brain. It has always been amazing to me that a bride can spend so much mental energy choosing a gown and then go out and tromp through fields, warehouses, and rail yards taking their Bridals.

We want each bride to have a gown she looks radiant in and our goal is to help her find it. Be open and try on many styles--even those you don't think you will like. One thing we hear more than almost anything else is, "Thank you. I never would have tried this gown on and I love it." So, don't have too many preconceived notions about what you think you want. You will probably look better in most wedding gowns than you have ever looked before.

Bridal on a budget

Three years ago I started a new bridal boutique. This boutique sells overstock and previously gently worn bridal gowns. Fall is a good time to buy a bridal gown here because many have been marked down to $200 or less.

There are many styles and sizes to choose from--some mother's dresses too. We have both modest and contemporary. No appointment is necessary. Hours are Tuesday-Friday 10:00 - 6:00. Saturday 10:00 - 5:00. Closed Sunday and Monday. We can be found at 4014 South Highland Drive in Salt Lake City (across from Les Schwab Tires). Call 801 272-4711 for further information.

Remember, you can't shop for a gown on the phone. Also, it is a good idea to take Mom and/or ONE family member of friend. You can concentrate on your shopping if you leave small children at home (all unattended children will receive a double latte and kitten when they leave).
