When Christine Gardner of Flaunt Make-Overs asked us a couple of months ago if we would be interested in carrying her new line of hair accessories at The Bridal Boutique, it was a no brainer! We know how talented she is and it’s no surprise that she has expanded her repertoire by creating modern, trendy and BEAUTIFUL hairpieces for the bride. Prices are reasonable starting at $35.

 

While we were lucky enough to have featured her designs since September, Christine is officially debuting her pieces at The Wedding Cafe, Alliway, Global Village and of course The Bridal Boutique on Thursday, November 20th.

 

Christine has also been featured on Lei Chic, Hawaii’s newest shopping and lifestyle publication. If you want to be in the know, sign up for your free daily email with insider tips on local fashion, shopping, events and more.

Joyce,

I can only imagine just how sad you must feel
For losing someone so special you love.

This grief-filled time must still feel surreal
And you’re searching for answers from above.

I hope, with all my heart, that your pain will decrease
That your spirit will be uplifted and gain strength again.

I pray that your faith will bring about inner peace
And that almighty God will send blessings from heaven.

‘Til then, my dear friend, if you need me to lighten your load
I am eagerly waiting to come to your aid.

Just call on me, and I’ll travel down that rough road,
Until the dark and difficult times begin to fade.

Love,
Cil

 

happy birthday joyce September 17, 2008

Yee Mei in the house! February 29, 2008

 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!
