Meet Our Bride: Keile

Over and over again, we try to emphasize how enjoyable the process of finding your dream dress should be. A bride puts so much pressure on herself to find the perfect dress and to look perfect in it, but what she should really do is sit back and enjoy the process of wearing such an amazing dress at such a special time in her life. One your wedding day, you should look amazing, but you should also ENJOY the fact that you look amazing! You should be comfortable and happy- after all, isn't it the happiest day of your life? For Keile, it was:

Keile's story jsut makes us happy: “I shopped around for dress shops because I wanted an experience as opposed to just a shop. Of all, Madeleine’s Daughter had the biggest selection, most attentive and knowledgeable staff, and most comfortable atmosphere. From the very beginning, they made me feel special. Everything I had ripped out of magazines, they had, and everything I needed to tweak, was carefully considered and tailored. We had our own luxurious room to try on dresses and include my friends and family. The staff was gracious, excited and understanding about my personal preferences and ideals, as well as what a special time in my life this was. I loved my seamstress and knew I could trust her to make my dress fit me perfectly. And it did! On my wedding day, I not only felt beautiful, I felt comfortable and relaxed, which allowed me to enjoy every little bit of my day. Thank you, Madeleine’s Daughter for helping me find the perfect dress for me.”

Every bride should be "comfortable and relaxed" on her wedding day and able to "enjoy every little bit" of her day. Keile, we couldn't say it any better!

Meet Our Bride: Anne

How many bridal shops did you visit and how many dresses did you try on before you found "the one?" Sometimes finding your dream dress early in the process can be so surprising that you find yourself walking away from it. No matter how many other shops you go to and how many other dresses you try on, you may find yourself still thinking about that dress you walked away from. And that's when you find yourself coming back to it, just like Anne did:

Here's her story: "'Something fun, a little funky, but classic'....is what I described to my bridal consultant Brandie at Madeleine's Daughter.  When I thought about it- it sounded like a pretty hard request- but I'm sure they have had more challenging ones.

"She brought out about 6 dresses- but there was one I saw that I knew I loved right away even before slipping it on.  Nonetheless I tried on all the dresses, and the first one I saw, was indeed 'the one.'  But Madeleine's was the first and only place I had been to, and I felt like I needed to check out another place or two with my mom- more for the experience and the bonding time.  As we left, Brandie confidently reassured me that I would be back for that dress. She was right. Two weeks later I came back, put it on once again- and indeed still loved it as much as the first time.  I just knew this was the one- I had found my dress!

"The bustle was no easy task to alter, but  they had a seamstress who was wonderful, and had personal connections to the area where we were getting married.  Each time I came to adjust and fix the how the dress was to be bustled we just chatted away.  The dress was finished 4 days before the big day- and it was the best and most special day of our lives.  Thank you so much for helping me find my wedding dress! I will always cherish it.....and all the beautiful memories that came with that day while I wore my beautiful white dress and married the love of my life!”

There is no doubt that she found "something fun, a little funky, but classic" in her dress and we couldn't be happier for her! What was your experience like shopping for your dress? Did you stop as soon as you found "the one" or did you keep looking, only to return to your original choice? Leave a comment below or send us an email to tell us all about it!

Meet Our Bride: Annmarie

At Madeleine's Daughter, our consultants are truly committed to every bride they see. Our consultants are there for whatever they need. If they are looking for the perfect bridesmaid dress, or if they need advice on tuxedo choices, our consultants can help. In fact, they are constantly emailing and calling our brides to make sure everything is perfect- the gown, the bridesmaid dresses, the mother's dresses, the tuxes, the flower girl dresses, the accessories, the alterations- everything! Not every bride finds everything she needs at our store, but some do, like Annmarie:

Annmarie found her dress and much more at Madeleine's. I'll let her tell the story:

“I got everything I wore that day from Madeleine's- my gown, veil, tiara and shoes! I loved all of it and felt like a princess on my wedding day. I found the service at Madeleine's to be very professional and accommodating. Each concern that I had regarding my dress purchases was always resolved in a way that made me feel comfortable. I also loved how I could visit my dress whenever I liked! I never felt pressured or pushed into making any purchases. I also loved the seamstresses that Madeleine's had to come in and alter my gown. The women that I worked with made sure everything was altered to perfection and even gave me her personal phone number and and told me she would come to my house the day of my wedding if anything went wrong with the gown! You can't beat that!  I would recommend going to Madeleine's to any bride who is looking to purchase a gown! Thanks for making my gown experience a pleasant one!”

At Madeleine's, our entire staff understands the importance of what we are doing. A wedding day is so incredibly special and we want to do everything in our power to make sure it is nothing short of perfect. We're committed right to the end. It's so wonderful to hear from brides like Annmarie who truly felt taken care of with us.
