Maggie Sottero Trunk Show Starts Tomorrow!

There was a buzz in the boutique when the big boxes marked "Maggie Sottero" arrived yesterday. We all flew into a whirlwind of activity as the realization set in as to how much work needed to be done to get ready for our big Maggie Sottero trunk show this weekend. The steamers were on, plastic was flying, consultants were ooh-ing and ahh-ing as each piece was unwrapped, checked off, and checked out. We are SO excited!

From the comments on our Facebook page, we know that you all are excited too. Well, the wait is almost over. The show starts tomorrow at 10 am and runs through Sunday. We've mentioned it, but it bears repeating that this is going to be a PACKED show. If you're attending this weekend: (1) please be patient and (2) please limit your guests. We've done our best with scheduling, but every time Maggie Sottero comes to our boutique, our store turns into something of a frenzy (in a good way!) - there's lace, and tulle, and brides everywhere!

Even with all the excitement and the craziness, Maggie Sottero trunk show weekends are always some of the most fun weekends and we expect that will be the case this weekend too.

If you haven't scheduled your visit to see the Maggie Sottero Spring 2012 collection at our store, it's not too late. Our consultants are prepared to create you an opportunity to get into a Maggie gown - but you must make your appointment NOW!

Can't wait to see all of you this weekend!

When You Absolutely Have To Have It

So, you've found this amazing dress online or in a magazine. You've searched all over town and no one has it in stock. You really want to try on this dress; it's calling your name; you have to get your hands on it! What to do?

Don't worry, don't fret, dear one. Usually there's a simple solution. First, find a bridal boutique that actually carries the designer line that you are searching for. You can find out who has the line by looking either at the designer's website or on the boutique's website. Next, give them a call or shoot them an email. Ask if "loan samples" are available for the particular collection you are interested in.

Say what?

A loan sample is pretty much what it sounds like. A designer will loan out a sample of the dress a bride is interested in. Loan sample programs help fill in the gap between what the designer has to offer and what a boutique is able to carry in their store. Keep in mind (a) not all collections have a loan sample program, but a majority of them do, (b) not all dresses are available as loan samples, and (c) it's probably going to cost you. The privilege of having a loaner dress provided for you will usually cost you between $40 and $100 dollars depending on the designer's loan sample program, and it's usually non-refundable. So before you set out to get a loan sample, make sure you really want it.

What if you're not willing to pay to get a loan sample? Then what? No worries. Bring your picture - and an open mind - to your boutique visit. Thankfully trends umbrella across designers. What you love about this dream dress is likely to be found in a similar dress by the same or different designer. Sometimes dresses are so similar you'll wonder what you ever worried about. =)

Whatever you're looking for, let us help you find it. Our consultants pour through bridal magazines in their spare time (we're kind of obsessed) and commune with our collections while they're at work. So they've got the knowledge to match what you want with what we've got. Give us a call and let us help you find The One.

Best wishes,
