Alright already!

I can imagine that somewhere, someone might get tired of hearing about “Our Brides”, “Our Brides”, “Our Brides”. Tons of tweets, a multitude of Facebook updates, the special photo section on our website, stories told in conversation…etc, etc, etc. It’s possible that someone could get sick of hearing that term… I suppose. It’s kind of unfathomable to me because I never get sick of saying it…”Our Brides”, “Our Brides”… yep, still not sick of it. So, what’s the big deal about “Our Brides”? Ummm…everything! We love working with Our Brides! We have more fun than we should probably be allowed helping them choose the dress of their dreams, then jewelry, maybe a veil. Talking about how they’ll wear their hair, where the wedding will be, bridesmaids colors, how they met their fiancĂ© and on and on. SO. Much. Fun! Seriously. We feel like friends of Our Bride by the time the whole process is through. We get a little sad when the day comes for her to pick up her gown and whisk it away to the wedding, knowing we may not see her again. Until….she sends pictures! Which is why we ask for wedding photos every five minutes. Wink, Wink.

So then we make Our Bride a special page in the “Our Brides” section of our website! A whole page named after her to show off the photos of her big day! We’re so proud of how she looks and feel like we got to be a part of the wedding even though we weren’t in attendance. Then, we think… “Wow, she looked so good her picture belongs on the homepage! Or the Bridal page!” Now all the photos on the Bridal page of our website, the one that lists the designers we carry, those are all actually Our Brides! Yep, you thought they were models. Yep, they make our dresses look good…really good. And all but one of the photos on our homepage are actually Our Brides! Yes, it’s hard to believe. No, none of them are professional models that I know of. Now you can see why we’re so proud of them! Why we talk about them every chance we get and why we’re always sending people to go see the pictures in the “Our Brides” section of our website. That’s the story on “Our Brides”. And if the person who may or may not be sick of hearing about “Our Brides” is reading this…you’re just gonna have to stop listening.
