Involving Your Family and Friends


Volle’s had a great turn out for our Allure trunk show this weekend, and we were so lucky to have been able to see the most current bridal line from our new designer! Whether you are looking for a gown that is soft and romantic, modern, or vintage, Allure has a dress to impress any bride and her budget. We can’t wait to share this new line with all of our future brides!

In other bridal news, I’m quickly gaining great deal of knowledge and experience with every day that passes by. I have been fortunate enough to meet brides from all different walks of life, and with every kind of style and personality to match. One thing that unites all brides that walk through our door is their desire to feel beautiful and have the best experience possible when looking for their dream dress. A question that many brides might ask themselves before making an appointment is, “Who should I bring to my bridal appointment? Should I just take my family or do I want to involve my friends/bridesmaids?” While sharing this experience is very personal and emotional for most brides, and they want to have everyone that they can involved, a general rule to follow is that less is more. Bringing in a large group can easily overwhelm you as a bride because no matter how well you get along, there will always be opinions. Select the people that you want most to be part of the choosing of your dress , whether that be a relative or friend, and let others know that you can either show them pictures, bring them back to a first fitting, or even keep it as a surprise until your wedding day. There are plenty of ways to involve as many people you want after you have chosen your dress. Remember, you are the bride and if you and your small group love a gown, then it is the one for you.
