We're sending out a warm congratulations on this chilly Monday to Denise and Dwaine!

To celebrate 30 years of marriage, they renewed their vows in April of last year on this absolutely picturesque beach. Denise looked breathtaking in her Madi Lane gown, the asymmetrical layers were light enough to flow in the wind, but still gave the beachy bridal vibe she was going for. We're so happy to have been a part of your beautiful day!

Psst...
Did you know you can consign your dress back to us? That's what Denise did after her vow renewal! Head over to our website to see the consignment requirements, fill out our online form, and we'll get back to you!

Happy birthday to us!!! Sweet savings to youuuu. Visit us the rest of the month and draw a prize ticket to win some great prizes, including discounts, veil incentives, free gifts, and more!

Allow me a little nostalgia, because we’ve come a long way. From when I met consignors in parking lots and stored the gowns in my baby’s nursery, from our little pop up shop where the try on space was literally a closet, from opening with just 75 gowns, from just me doing everything on my phone and photographing gowns in my dining room…to a fully online consignment process with easy drop off, two cozy yet stylish fitting rooms, 350+ gowns, 4 employees and over 700 happy brides served over the years…I’m truly stunned and grateful every day for this community of sustainably minded gown lovers. I’m so proud of what we’ve built together, with just a stimulus check and a dream. I’m so honored to play a small role making part of your momentous day easy, fun, friendly, affordable, and sustainable. And frankly, getting to keep up with your new ventures and growing families and big dreams after the wedding is an unexpected delight. We believe in love here at Bridal Maven and I’m tearing up thinking of how wonderful y’all are. I think of all of you, how you believe in love too so much so that you’re joining your life with another person, and I feel hope for the future.

Thank you thank you thank you.

If you’re new here, we would love to be a part of your love story, too. Book your appointment online and celebrate 4 amazing years with us!

We took a look at the tags, and these two new arrivals have your name on them!

Ready to take the plunge with these plunging necklines?

1) Allure Bridals Couture style C581, fits like a size 6, $1,499
2) Essense of Australia style D2761, fits like a size 4, $1,250
3) Bonnie for Willowby by Watters, tag size 6, $1,200
4) NWT Martina Liana style ML888, fits like a size 4, $1,750

Did you fall in love with a dress, but don't love the low neckline? The nice thing about most gowns is they have many layers in the skirt. This means your seamstress can take some fabric from one of those layers (or hem if you got it shortened) and use it to close a plunging neckline. This keeps the dress true to what you fell in love with, while staying true to you.

"Shopping at Bridal Maven was one of the best experiences I had during wedding planning and truly made a world of difference. My dress was perfect!"

Lily looked absolutely stunning in her Rivini Tyler gown! 😍 We love seeing what alterations brides choose for their dresses. Lily customized hers with a bustle for a chic ankle/tea-length look at the reception and added a matching hair bow and straps from the gown’s excess fabric.

Congratulations!! 💕

2) Essense of Australia style D3254, fits like a size 14, $999
3) URB tulle ballgown, tag size 27, $999
4) Channing by Jenny Yoo, fits like a size 8, $850
5) NWT David’s Bridal style 9WG3850, fits like a size 18, $800

“I could not have had a more amazing experience in your shop! Thank you for making it so special for me!”

The real thank you goes out to our bride Kaylan!

The power of ✨clipping✨, because you don't want to walk out of the dressing room holding up your dress. Formal wear, especially bridal wear, generally won't fit perfectly without having some alterations first. Our inventory of dresses is consignment, meaning some have been altered while others haven't been altered at all. Clipping helps achieve that perfectly tailored-to-you look so you don't have to imagine what it'll look like on your wedding day; it also helps give you an idea of what alterations you want for your dress before going to your seamstress! #BridalMaven #WeddingDressClipping #ThePowerofClipping #BridalConsigment #SustainableBride #SustainableWedding #PittsburghBride #BurghBride #PittsburghWedding

This sample sale weekend flew by (almost as fast as this video), but we still have plenty of accessories in stock. Don't forget! 40% of ALL accessory sale proceeds will be donated to several families affected by the recent hurricanes. #BridalMaven #BridalSampleSale #BridalConsignment #SustainableBride #SustainableWedding #PittsburghBride #PittsburghWedding #BurghBride

Something wicked [awesome] this way comes! We're having a spooky sample sale from Wednesday, October 30th, through Sunday, November 3rd, with savings so good they’re scary! We will have specially priced racks of gowns at $199, $499, and $999; anything in the store not on those specially marked racks will be reduced by 10%! Additionally, a portion of all accessory sales will be donated to hurricane relief to support several families in need. Our sample sale appointments are bookable online through our website (no walk-ins, please). Sample sale appointments are no different from our regular bridal appointments; you'll still have your own room, a stylist helping you every step of the way, and an hour to try on all the dreamy dresses of your choosing. This is a REALLY good time to shop! We can't wait to see you for this spooktacularly good sale! #BridalMaven #SampleSale #ConsignmentBridalSale #BridalConsignment #SustainableBride #SustainableWedding #PittsburghBride #PittsburghWedding #BurghBride
