Small businesses strive to be personal.
We create relationships with our clients and work very hard to serve our communities.
So when small businesses disappoint us it feels personal. And when they end that affects those closest to them.

It has been a very difficult 4 years and an extremely hard 6 months. We have done everything to remain viable post pandemic and now within this failing economy.

Last month, in an effort to protect our clients and ensure the return of their items, we discontinued our consignment program. This process is almost complete after meeting with almost 400 people since our inventory review began on April 23, 2024. Communication with our remaining active clients is ongoing and will be done privately on a case to case basis.

After exploring every path forward we have made the choice to close our doors. We have made every effort to limit the impact this may have on our clients.

The grief we all feel over this ending is immense. There are no words to convey what it means to lose everything after such a long, hard fight. Our hope is that people remember that for over 7 years we offered something unique and amazing. We connected thousands of people while maintaining our mission of inclusivity and sustainability. We want to thank everyone who supported us. We are deeply grateful for the relationships and experiences this provided us.

Please take care of the small business community we leave behind. Closures are happening at unprecedented rates and are imminent for many. This goes beyond a shop local hashtag. We implore you to explore your consumer habits and invest in your local economy whenever & wherever possible. Our dream may be over but someone else’s can still be saved.

With gratitude,
Amanda and Pearl & Birch Family

Here is one thing I love about owning a consignment store…

The wedding & formal industry can be so confusing. The pre-planning, timelines, budgeting, terminology, traditions and expectations can get complicated. I love simplifying the shopping.

Here are three ways we make the shopping experience easier for our clients:

Transparency. There is no piece of information we won’t part with. From alterations to timelines, market values, item condition or real numbers we want to serve empowered consumers. Why? Because they make confident choices. So you won’t find any cagey responses or confusing messaging here. We are happy to provide clear, concise answers to all your questions.

Personal service. Give us a chance to impress you and we will! Consignment is different than retail. And formal is different than everyday clothing. Far too often we approach clients only to be rebuffed with the “I’m just browsing” boundary. IF you let us we will gladly listen to your needs, make suggestions & pull any and all options based on your search criteria. We want to reward you taking the time to book with us by providing a supportive shopping experience.

Accessibility. Everything we sell is available for same day purchase! No ordering. No hoping the measurements and sizing are going to work. No timing your alterations with estimated delivery dates. Absolutely no stress about delays, errors or rush fees. The dress you fall in love with is the one you buy! Our off the rack options eliminate a lot of guess work.

I love being the most stress-free part of your planning. I also love taking a process that is intentionally designed to be a complicated money trap for consumers and turning it into a “best day ever” life event for you and your friends & fam that’s enjoyable and easy to understand! See you at the shoppe 😘

Thanks for being here! We have a lot of new faces & followers in the shop and on our socials. Let’s talk about who I am & what we do!

I’m a former fast fashion addict who loves vintage, is deeply nostalgic about dresses and spends all my time between my two great loves- this shop & my family.

I am also an addict who just quietly celebrated 14 years of sobriety, a mother of boys and a partner to my husband of 10 years. Like many women in their 40’s I have spent years cultivating my confidence and challenging myself to choose the paths that serve me the most in order to be the fully realized person I am outside of these labels.

This shop started as a way to sell my wedding dress. It has grown into so much more, offering services and selection that advocate for a circular fashion system when styling clients for all types of events. Pearl & Birch provides access to affordable, quality dresses through our consignment service. We focus on educating and empowering our clients to navigate the complex and often misunderstood world of weddings, alterations, secondhand and resale. We have built a business that actively assists hundreds of people a month in shopping and selling.

Along the way we have partnered with amazing local woman-owned vendors in featuring their products. You’ll find these unique pieces throughout the shop.

My vision to offer a space that is inclusive, environmentally impactful, inspiring and informative is achieved by:

✨ selling new & secondhand dresses and accessories on consignment
✨ serving as dress brokers specializing in items that require experience & expertise to sell
✨ creating personalized fittings that focus on the unique needs of the shopper
✨ offering a safe & welcoming shop for all people who desire to wear something special to their next event
✨ curating a collection of designer dresses that is financially accessible to all budgets
✨ investing in elevated experiences and spaces so clients receive the care & attention they deserve

Pearl & Birch is a place where we write love stories that are retold through garments and remembered for the moments we make with them. I am grateful to be a part of that each and every day.
XO,
A.

We are in the love story business 💕 Happy Valentines Day to all of our couples, past and present. I hope you continue to write new chapters, make special memories and mark these little moments as milestones in your life together. We are so lucky to be a small part of it.

It’s hard to stay hopeful in this season. There is so much grief and horror happening in the world right now. A seismic shift in our humanity. It’s terrifying and has left so many of us feeling helpless. And so I cling to the things that anchor me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am so grateful for these humans. Elisa and Tiara have been with p&b for a while now. They have been my port in the storm through so much growth. Ella, Kaitlyn, Imani & Sukhmani have brought fresh energy and a new persepctive to the shoppe. It has been a joy teaching them everything we have learned about this business and it’s incredibly humbling to have them in my corner. I could not do what I do without them.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I hope you are spending your time this season with the people that make you feel safe, celebrated and loved.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
**OPEN TOMORROW. We will be closed December 24th & 25th as well as January 1st. Our hours are tentative for December 26th and December 31st. We encourage people to book in so we know you want to come or we MAY adjust our hours or close entirely for those days.

10/02/2023

Very rarely do you see me place my face in front of my business. I know I’m not alone in my relationship with social media, my self image and the level of energy it takes to create real engagement on here. It’s no secret- the key to great socials is, well, being social. Posting images of yourself, real time content of your day and reels that educate & entertain. It’s not like I don’t know the HOW or the WHY. It’s simply because just like you, I’m running through my life instead of walking in it. And I can’t keep up.

As a biz owner, mom and human I struggle. I’m tired. Perpetually tired. I never feel “on” or “ready”. But I’m always activated. I wake up in a state of reactivity. Racing towards every obligation and goal like I’m on fire. And then, I crash. After 3 long months where I moved my business, worked severely understaffed all summer, trained 4 new team members and started the fall school season where my family routine completely changed (husband who is also a small biz owner entered his busiest time of year!) I finally have a day of rest.

I use that term cautiously. Rest. I have no appointments, no plans, no fires to put out. But my brain is still filing and organizing the things I have put off to take this time. I imagine them orbiting in front of me weightless, as though I’m using some sort of mind control to keep them levitating in front of me at all times. Visible. Present. Paused. And if I stop thinking about any one of them for even a second they will all drop. Everything will collapse.

This was suppose to be a “welcome to the new followers” post. Something like, “hey, we’re back after a little hiatus”. And maybe this is my most authentic welcome. Perhaps the best way I can introduce myself and my shoppe is to tell you that it’s always growing. We are always changing. We have a whole new team of people to serve you. That beyond the burnout is an amazing new space that offers an incredible resource for people getting married in MB. That in spite of all the changes our consignment program is thriving. Our inventory is exceptional. It’s all happening.

So, welcome here 👋 my name is Amanda & here’s an entire carousel of me without my messy bun 💕

It is gonna be a hot selling summer and we want fresh new inventory to dress our guests!

There is never a bad time to consign we just want to get more specific on the types of items our current and future clients are looking for at this time of year.

There is nothing more rewarding (and more risky) than then going all in on your business. After 6 years of floor plan revisions, leaking ceilings, hot summers with no central air and thousands of shoppers and sellers Pearl & Birch has opened a beautiful new space on Portage Avenue less than 2 minutes from Polo Park.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Renovations have taken up a huge amount of our focus and time and we are excited to be back out on our socials sharing the space we have designed. To say that this was an enormous under taking doesn’t even begin to cover the last 8 months. But I’ll be letting you in on the behind the scenes this week!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you new to the wedding world and just meeting us for the first time? You are probably wondering if you should believe the hype (spoiler alert: the reviews are totally true!) You may not even realize we have just opened a second space. Even if you are a life-long Birch Babe I am sure you have some burning questions and we want to answer them all.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What has changed about our service?
Where are we?
Why did we choose this location?
Is the St. Mary's location still open?
Are you currently accepting new consignments?
How do I shop with Pearl & Birch?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether you have helped build this community by supporting us through the years or you just found us 5 minutes ago I have no doubt my triumphant return to blogging will make you feel right at home with all things P&B. The reimagined Birch Blog is live and will be your resource for all the expertise and education we have to offer to our shoppers & sellers. We are here to show you a new way to wed in Manitoba.

Our final clearance event begins this Tuesday! Swipe through this post and watch our stories for Q&A about the all the amazing savings and options we have ready for next week!

Our small business could really use your support during this time. We want to connect as many dresses as possible to ease our move to the new location (happening at the end of the month!!) and also continue to connect items for our sellers during this busy time. We would also love to see as many of our regular shoppers and biggest supports in the final weeks of our journey as a wedding shoppe on St. Mary’s Road

Please like & share this post to anyone looking for wedding formal on a short timeline, within a great budget or who loves secondhand. We will have something for everyone! See you next week ✌️

Bright florals, intricate lace & low backs are always warm weather worthy 💐

Did you know that we carry sizes 0 through 6 and many of the gowns in that range have additional alterations, such as hems and cups, which not only allow petite people to see what a dress actually looks like on their body but may also save them hundreds in alterations?!

If you haven’t experienced trying on a dress that actually fits your proportions we highly recommend consignment. You’d be surprised how open you are to certain styles when they fit well.

New, unaltered dresses in retail are manufactured with a lot length and longer straps. The sample sizes they carry may also run 3-5 sizes too big forcing you to ignore the oversized cups, inches of rolled fabric & skirts that bunch and pool at your feet. Sometimes the weight of a gown alone will deter you from considering it when in actuality a dress altered to your shape and height wouldn’t feel so intimidating.

This Calla Blanche gown is a staff favourite that balances intricate lace with a stunning silhouette for just enough plunge in all the right places. See our calendar link for appointment details.

Why buy when you can rent?

So many of the small things we need to complete our event styling are pieces we enjoy for a few hours, weather required, time permitting, just for photos or as part of the ceremony.

All these little detail purchases can add up to big costs. Secondhand is the perfect way to save on these barely used additions. And renting not only costs way less but allows you to try on a variety of options before committing to something.

We rent vintage & faux fur capes, wraps & stoles all sourced secondhand and in a variety of colors and styles. The process is so easy➡️
