Just a few reasons to shop at your local bridal boutique:
🖤 You’re supporting brick & mortar. Online shopping seems great and all… until you live in a ghost town 😱
🖤 In many cases (our case) you’re supporting your downtown. Downtown cores add character and history to any town. But sadly, due to many factors (think big box stores, online sales, parking restrictions and safety concerns), businesses can’t survive downtown. Let’s not let this be the case! Support ALL downtown businesses when you can
🖤 You’re going to be disappointed by your online purchase. I can pretty much guarantee this! Reputable designers don’t sell online, as they know the value of the in-person experience. Those that do sell online are usually verrrry poor quality and counterfeit. For the odd designer that sells online - your local shop will almost always be priced lower!
🖤 You’re discouraging counterfeit goods. Online retailers use reputable designers images, sell you said dress, and send you something completely different (and awful). We have had countless brides get scammed by these people, and the only way to avoid it is not giving them your hard earned money!
🖤 You’re creating local jobs. Shopping in your own community means creating jobs in your own community. It’s that simple
🖤 Quality alterations. When you purchase at your local boutique, you will get access to the best alterations around! We (and they) give first priority to our brides and they book up fast!
🖤 You’re likely to get the same dress at the same price. It may seem like a great idea to go to a big city to shop for your gown… but the truth is, most of the designs you are hunting for are represented right in your own backyard!
We are so grateful to our brides who know the value of voting with their money… supporting small, brick & mortar businesses in their own community.
