    My Second Bridal Appointment and my Last

    I had such a good experience here at Gilded Bridal. We walked in and were greeted and told to look around. We were early and we had no problems with this as someone else was finishing up their consultation. While looking at the dresses, at first we didn't feel like anything jumped out at us, but we were still excited. We were brought to our private room and immediately felt comfortable. It is such a nice touch after being at other studios that are all open. Our consultant came in and asked us various questions about what we liked and didn't like. She picked out a few dresses and a few surprises. She wanted us to try on things we usually would not pick, and I am so happy she did! Because of this, we found my dress. It was something that looked so different on the rack vs on and if it weren't for her expertise, we would never have but also fit what made me feel comfortable. The whole experience was good from start to finish. I am so happy to be a Gilded Bride with the help from Pamela. I am so excited to see the dress. I highly recommend booking an appointment.

    found: elven warrior queen

    I am non-traditional and went to the salon to try on shapes, maybe find a gown, if they had something exquisite that highlighted the elven queen I am. The stylist was amazing and immediately knew what I was looking for. We tried on several shapes and landed on one that was amazing. The gown I tried on was so..... close... and as the stylist added pieces I could see the strong, fun, elven queen in me shining through. it was an amazing experience. we could genuinely feel the stylists excitement as all of the pieces came together. I am over the moon excited and thrilled.

    Gilded Bridal's reply:

    Thank you Jen! We'll always be obsessed with an elven queen :) Can't wait until your dress comes in! xoxo, the Gilded Girls
