Before You Visit
To help you envision your full bridal look, please bring the undergarments and shoes you plan to wear on your wedding day—or something similar. Light makeup is appreciated to help keep the dresses pristine. Feel free to bring inspiration photos, too! Most importantly, come as you are, get comfortable, and enjoy this special moment.
Reserved Just For You
Scheduling
Appointments are scheduled in advance so you have the stylist’s full, unhurried attention in an intimate, cozy setting. With seating for up to four guests, the boutique is the perfect place to slow down, savor the moment, and share this special experience with the people you love.
-
It is helpful to bring undergarments of similar styles that you will wear on your wedding day, like nude seamless underwear, a strapless bra, or shapewear. Bring anything that will help you feel the most comfortable while trying on dresses. It’s also great to bring heels of a height that you will wear for your wedding, so you can get the complete picture when dress shopping.
-
You will have the entire boutique to yourself and a personal bridal stylist who will guide you through your appointment. We’ll ask you a few questions about yourself and your wedding, try to get a basic idea of what you might be looking for, and then we’ll let you dive in! We like to let you browse through our gowns first and then your stylist may make suggestions to help you find your gown! Our stylist does not work on commission, so you can always be sure that our main goal is to match you with your perfect dress that’s within the budget that you are comfortable with.
-
To help keep our gowns as pristine as possible, we kindly ask that you wear little to no makeup to your appointment. Light, natural makeup is perfectly fine, but we recommend avoiding heavy foundation, self-tanner, or bold lip colors. This helps preserve the beauty of each dress for every bride who tries it on. Thank you for your understanding and care.
-
We recommend bringing a small party of three to four people of your nearest and dearest! Close family members and friends whose opinions you trust – too many people can create unwanted stress and be quite overwhelming for the bride.
-
We do not have alterations in-house, but we are connected with nearby seamstresses that we highly recommend. They frequently work with our brides, and we are confident in the services they provide. We can provide you their contact information when you come in for your appointment, or you can call us at 505-302-2030.
-
Once a dress leaves the boutique, we are no longer responsible for any issues or damages to that dress. As it has left our care, we cannot be held responsible for any damage or defects on the gown, especially once the alterations process has already begun.
During your pickup appointment, we carefully review the gown with you in detail. Together, we inspect the fabric, seams, beading, zippers, and overall condition to ensure everything meets expectations before it leaves the boutique. This thorough review allows us to address any concerns at that time, so you can leave feeling confident about your dress.
