Alrighty, Rebel Brides! We've been getting the phone calls and emails so it's time to finally address the elephant in the room and announce that it looks like we'll be closed for the month of December βœ¨β„οΈ

We're working on some HUGE new projects to improve your bridal shopping (and consigning!) experience that we can't quite divulge just yet, and with Cait having the baby we'll need the time off to make that transition 🀍

Thanks in advance for your understanding, sorry to any brides that were hoping to shop with us this December! We have every intention of coming back in January bigger and better than ever 😘

Sound off in the comments if you had any other questions and we'll answer what we can! We still have a big November ahead of us!

Congratulations to stunning Hand-Me-Gowns bride, Christine!! I remember having so much fun during our appointment with Christine because she was eager to experiment with so many silhouettes, styles, and colors to find the dress that truly spoke to her, and when we found this gown it IMMEDIATELY brightened the whole room up. I'm so happy to see that it was even more beautiful on her on the day, these moments look stunning. Many happy wishes to the couple!!

Alrighty lovelies we're "calling it"! If you missed our Instagram story a couple days ago, at nearly 600 dresses, our consignments are now CLOSED. We've hit our absolute maximum capacity for gorgeous gowns and accessories! 🀍 (Great news for our brides)

If you're hoping to consign, keep an eye out on our social media for when we reopen consignment appointments to the public πŸ™‚

We close consignments from time-to-time to make sure we're storing bridal gowns safely with enough space for each style, we give existing styles some additional time to be featured on the racks, and to allow additional time for brides to shop since we can't do both appointments at the same time in our space.

Thank you for understanding!

I'm sorry did everyone else's heart just stop seeing the stunning Julie in her beautiful gown too? πŸ₯Ί When Julie came in last winter we discovered so quickly that her love story was perfect for an ultra romantic look with a touch of whimsy, and it looks like it was absolutely made for her on her big day. We are so thrilled for her (and will be swooning for weeks, honestly) congratulations to the happy couple!!

Congratulations to gorgeous recent Hand-Me-Gowns bride Emily, who we get to share right now because she's reconsigning her perfect gown πŸ₯Ή Nothing makes me happier than when a gown gets a chance to embrace a THIRD love story!

And that's not all, she's also consigning her ultra soft bridal shawl for just $50 (hello winter brides) and her adorable reception party dress (last picture) which would best fit a bride in a L/XL.

If you're looking at these photos swooning like I was, make your appointment to see them in person soon 🌸

Congratulations to our newest Hand-Me-Gowns bride, Kayli! When Kayli came in to see us a year ago she had no idea that we would ACTUALLY have a gown that matched her vision and celebration, and it took everyone off guard when she put it on for the first time and we realized it was truly perfect πŸ₯Ή It's moments like that that makes the dress journey so exciting and worthwhile, and if the rainbow is any indication, it looks like she had JUST as magical a moment on her wedding day too! Wishing her and her husband a lifetime of happiness 🀍

You heard right, sustainable fashion is IN! ✨

In this post, we'll address the beauty of outfit repeating (or wearing pre-loved, however you want to call it) and how this is the ultimate sustainable fashion trend that will lead us into the future. We'll also highlight some celebrities over the past few years who haven't been afraid to re-wear their ball gowns or even stunningly sport a vintage number for their big day, as well as note the pros when it comes to buying secondhand wedding dresses.

This week on the wedding tips blog, Hand-Me-Gowns Bridal makes the argument for wearing pre-loved gowns and sustainable fashion.
