Q: What tips do you have for brides who aren’t sure how to pick a dress?

A: “That may be the hardest question yet… We love so many!”
Q: What is your favorite bridal trend?
A: “We’re loving fun and funky wedding shoes… When a bride picks up her skirt, it’s a fun surprise!”
Q: If you could tell brides one thing, what would it be?
A: “Order your gown as soon as you can to allow time for it to arrive, and time for any alterations you may need!”
