Enzoani Bridal Gown Giovanna

88 days and counting. I arrived at the Wedding Shoppe determined to find the one. Just twenty days earlier on June 9th, my now fiancé Eric had dropped to one knee and popped the question. In love and ready, we decided a year of planning was not for us; we picked the date, September 24, 2010. As romantic as it seemed we quickly realized there was much to do and not much time to do it. At the top of the list was my wedding dress. I knew that I was well beyond the traditional timeline for ordering a dress and off-the-rack would be my only option. I called the Wedding Shoppe, made my appointment, and hoped for the best. Before I knew it I was with my mom and sister at the Wedding Shoppe. To my surprise, Eric had also been there that day. When I checked in, I was given a bridal bouquet of pink peonies and told Eric had dropped them off. Peonies are my favorite flower and he knew that I would have had them as our wedding flower if they weren’t out of season in the fall. If we couldn’t have them for our wedding he thought I should at least have them while I tried on dresses. The appointment was off to a great start. I had always had it in my head that I would buy a lace trumpet style gown, but once I started trying dresses on I felt like I had already seen that look and I quickly realized I wanted something different, something unique. As I was telling the consultant this, she goes, “That’s perfect, because I just pulled a dress that I think you’re going to love. It’s really different.” It was perfect. It was romantic, flowy, and had the most beautiful detail of petals on the skirt. It was the one. And the best part, I got to take it home with me. 88 days later I put on a dress that was more than I ever could have imagined and walked down the aisle to Eric – all in an off-the-rack dress.

Carolyn, you were my consultant on June 4th and I just have to thank you for the wonderful experience. You did a fantastic job picking dresses for me and helped me find the dress! My friends and future mother-in-law raved about you and their experience at The Wedding Shoppe. I'm so impressed and grateful that you worked with us. I did have the ideal dress shopping experience because of you and your store I could not be happier about that day. You were so kind and positive. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Dear Lois, Carol,Cindy and the fabulous Wedding Shoppe Crew, Thank you for enabling me to feel amazing as I married the man of my dreams and experienced the best day of my life. After 9 years of dating my husband, I needed a dress worthy of the wait and you pulled it off. Between the search to the fittings, to the accessories, your shop comes with my highest recommendation. Thank you for all that you did to help my dream wedding come true. You have a great staff.

Dear Staff at the Wedding Shoppe, Thank you so much for being so kind and patient with helping us select our entire wedding party's attire for our wedding day! I absolutely loved my Marisa bridal gown. It was exactly what I had always envisioned for my wedding & it made me feel so elegant and beautiful. I greatly appreciate how helpful and professional you were when i realized tat one of the straps on my dress was too loose on the morning of our wedidng. I can't tell you how much it meant to me that you immediately sent out tow of your seamstresses to our church to tighten it before we had to start taking our pictures. Thanks again for going above and beyond to provice such a great service at a time when it was really needed. We were truly impressed!
