Our passion is styling brides in the perfect wedding gown complimenting her individual beauty and style. Our boutique's mission is to provide exceptional & personalized care with a beautiful selection of gowns to choose from.

We carry dresses for every bride: romantic, rustic, elegant, classic, simple, bohemian, and everything in between. We have each type of silhouette in our store, from ballgown, a-line, fit-and-flare, mermaid, trumpet, to sheath! Whether you're looking for a unique, boho lace pattern or a simple crepe dress, we have the selection for you.

While we are located in Central Virginia, brides travel from Raleigh, Charlotte, NoVa and the Washington D.C. area, Richmond, Charlottesville, Roanoke and further to visit our lovely shop - because we really do offer the experience that brides dream of!

A magical experience from start to finish

I was blown away by the attention and service I received at AGB. On entering, myself and my wedding party were made to feel welcome and at ease. Each member of staff were professional and extremely friendly. Toni blew me away with her knowledge and expertise. I went in with a set dress in mind, and I could see she knew the exact dress for me! It was one I would never have considered would look good on me, but the moment I put it on I knew!! That, to me, shows that she is passionate and knows exactly what she is doing! I loved my experience, and was made to feel like a princess. Thank you AGB for giving me a wonderful memory.

Loved it!

The lady that helped me was so sweet, kind, helpful, patient, and listened to what I wanted. I’ve been to other places in the past and they didn’t listen to what I wanted. Also they were very flexible with time!

Very Comfortable Experience

I worked with Alyssa, and she made me feel very comfortable as I was choosing and trying dresses on. She was kind and understanding, and I did not feel pressured at all. My family was able to join, and she got along well with them as well.

So helpful!

Peyton was an absolute delight! I walked in slightly nervous and very clueless as to what exactly I wanted, but she was able to talk me through the vibe I was going for and what I DIDNT want. She helped me find an absolutely gorgeous dress within my price range that I can still be comfortable all day in and feel my most confident. She is a perfect hype-woman without being pushy, and the whole experience felt luxurious and like I was valued. 10/10, definitely recommend for anxious brides to be.
