Drum roll please… We are so excited that our seamstress, Yee Mei, will be at The Bridal Boutique starting March 1st! It has been truly wonderful to have her as The Bridal Boutique’s #1 (and only) recommended seamstress for the last year and a half that we have been open. We love her, our brides love her… she is an integral part of the team and NOW we have her full time!

Wednesday Night Workshop @ The Wedding Cafe February 5, 2008
It’s workshop time! Last Wednesday, January 30th, we featured 3 gowns from some of our FAVORITE designers: Alfred Angelo, Allure Couture, and Demetrios.
Alfred Angelo designs beautiful bridal gowns that are amazingly affordable. All styles are available in sizes 2-28W which we love because we know that one size does NOT fit all.
Allure Couture is a fabulous line that uses lots of beads, sequins and crystals… fun fact: Allure Bridals is the biggest buyer of Swarovski crystals worldwide. Another cool feature of Allure bridal gowns is that they feature a specially patented bodice which gives maximum support and structure.
Demetrios is a fashion icon in the bridal gown industry. Every season Demetrios adds 100 new designs to his bridal collection! From fine lace to exquisite fabric, each gown is created to make the bride feel and look her best on her wedding day.
Thanks to Tanna and The Wedding Cafe gang for putting together another awesome workshop
CONGRATS to Jen (Joyce’s sis) on her engagement to Travis…YAY! She attended her first TWC workshop and cheered us on!
AND thanks to Leah (Cecilia’s niece) for modeling one of our featured gowns - so pretty!!
