Impression Bridesmaid Dress 1779

Never in my life, did I ever imagine that I would be so blessed to have such an incredible wedding. Long ago, like many other little girls, I would put a pillow case veil on my head, or walk my barbie down a pretend aisle and envision my perfect fairytale wedding. After meeting Scott, the handsome and affectionate love of my life, those hopes and dreams finally become a reality as we began to plan our wedding day. As amazing as it was, all of the dreaming could never come close to the incredible wedding we had on August 28, 2010. Everything was perfect. From the dress, to the flowers, the invitations and the location. It was without a doubt, the best day of my life. Looking back, the thing that made it so perfect, so incredible, wasn't the dress, or the flowers, or anything else related. Our wedding was perfect because of the people that shared it with us. Our family and friends, were the one thing that made it better than anything I could ever have dreamed of. I am so grateful to all the people who played a part in making our wedding so truly perfect. Dress: I went to The Wedding Shoppe just a few days after getting engaged to try on dresses for fun with absolutely no intention of choosing anything. I fell in love with the fifth dress I tried on and just like everyone says, I knew it was the one. Veil: Since my dress was on the more simple side, I wanted a veil that added some drama and sparkle. I found a cathedral length veil with rhinestone trim at the wedding shoppe. It also had a blusher, which I didn't love, so the wedding shoppe removed it and added a comb to make a second veil. My mom then added rhinestone trim to the edges and I wore it as a shorter version of the Cathedral length veil for the reception. Headpiece: I loved all the big floral headpieces I would see but couldn't seem to find one that matched my dress. The wedding shoppe took fabric from my hemmed dress and made a custom flower with a vintage rhinestone center. It was absolutely perfect Location: The Union Depot, St Paul Minnesota. We absolutely loved the Union Depot. It was classic and elegant, and the food was incredible. The wedding coordinator Georgia was amazing to work with and made everything so easy for us. Favors: My favorite beverage has always been Diet Coke and a few years ago, Scott, my husband got a job with Coca-Cola. For our place cards we attached names to old fashioned bottles of diet coke with a story about our love for Coke on the back! It was so fun. Flowers: I wanted lots of color, and Carra Otten, of Le Petit Fleur did an AMAZING job. She was so easy to work with and had incredible ideas and style. Photography: Erin Johnson Photography. We had so much fun working with Erin! She has such great ideas and moves at record pace. The photos she took are incredible and we are so happy we went with her! Videographer: Jeffrey Fuchs | Northern Lights Video. We weren't sure if we were going to hire a videographer, but I am so glad we did. Jeff was very easy to work with and very professional, we hardly even noticed he was there the day of our wedding. His work is amazing and he was able to capture so much emotion from the day of our wedding. We loved him!

Dear Wedding Shoppe Team, I recently enjoyed my wedding, and thanks to your store, I was able to make my wedding day look simply elegant. With the help of Ashley, I bought the first wedding dress that I ever tried on, I fell in love with the dress that was in the front window back in December of 2007, and knew from that moment it would be the dress I would wear on my wedding day. So if you could please show Ashley the attached picture, my husband and I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for making our wedding day truly captivating!

Last prom season I purchased a dress from the Wedding Shoppe, and I could not have been happier with my experience! When you walk into the store your are immediately greeted by their friendly staff, all of who are more than happy to assist you in finding a dress for your occasion. I was able to describe what I wanted to the saleswoman and within an hour she had helped me find the perfect dress! The dress I found however was not in my size or the color that I wished to have it in, but the Wedding Shoppe was more than happy to order it for me and had it shipped to the store in time for my prom! Once I had my dress I did not have to worry about searching every store in town to find shoes and accessories to match, because the Wedding Shoppe has them all right there in their store! I found a pair of shoes that I loved, but they only came in white, and my dress was orange. So the staff at the Wedding Shoppe dyed the shoes for a small cost to match my dress perfectly. I was also assisted in finding a pair of beautiful earrings and a bag to match my dress, which were both very reasonably priced! The Wedding Shoppe made my search for a prom dress extremely easy, and the staff really puts time into your search and makes you feel special. My time in the Shoppe was enjoyable, and I cant wait to go back this year to find another beautiful dress!

I visited the Wedding Shoppe in the spring of 2009 to start my prom dress shopping. I was greeted by a friendly employee who was more than happy to help me. Her name was Kimberly Contreras. She helped me make my selections of dresses I would try on. She then helped me get in and out of all the dresses and gave me helpful feedback. My final choice was a magenta mermaid dress that I fell in love with. About 2 weeks before prom, I went back to the Wedding Shoppe to get measured for my alterations. The woman that helped me, Elsa, also made me feel very comfortable and was great at what she did. I loved my dress and it fit perfectly! I couldn't have been any happier with the services that the Wedding Shoppe provided me with! I would definitely go back again! Katie Ahlstrom
