Hello everyone! I want to say a few kind words about our experience at Lovely Bride, Houston ! My daughter, Ainslea, and I had done research looking for a 'unique' wedding dress. Ainslea was looking for a "Bohemian, Vintage, Rustic" look. I... diligently looked for her type of Bridal Gown online and ran across the Rue De Seine line of gowns. I took one look and said, 'this is exactly what she's looking for !! ' I copied and pasted a few of the Rue De Seine dresses into a text message to her. Well it wasn't long and my phone was dinging continuously and I read, "OMG Mom, where did you find these dresses?" From there I was on the hunt for a Bridal store that carried 'the dress' in a sample size that would be suitable for Ainslea. We are from Canada and I searched from the East to the West coast of Canada for Rue De Seine dresses. Yes, different Bridal stores had them but not in her size. I mean honestly, you HAVE TO try the dress on before you say 'YES to the dress' ! Do you accept a marriage proposal without dating the guy? LOL! I ran across Lovely Bride stores online and saw that they carried Rue De Seine. After endless emails to all of the Lovely Bride stores across the U.S., Sofia at Lovely Bride in Houston contacted me let me know that they had the size we were looking for - BINGO !!! The following weekend we were in the store! Sophia had everything ready for us when we got there! Of course, the Rue De Seine dress was the first one to try on ;) Sophia had other dresses lined up for Ainslea to try on but you guessed it - not necessary - she found 'her dress'!! Her gown has little tassels on it across the bust line and also comes with matching, detachable sleeves - stunning!!!! My daughter stepped out of our private room and went into the section of the store where the big round platform was, Sophia fluffed her train out on the floor - it was just gorgeous! Right there beside us were veils. Sophia showed us the perfect veil to go with the dress - waist-length veil and the entire bottom edge of the veil had tassels - we all died when she put the veil on !!!!!! A PERFECT match! From the time that I first spoke with Sophia, she just knew exactly the look we were searching for. She was so kind and was soooo excited for Ainslea. We had a TON OF FUN with Sophia!! Let me tell you, she's your gal to talk to when you're looking for your dream dress! She will find it for you and will have lots of others to try on too! She has a knack for this! Sophia has gone to school and studied fashion and knows what she's talking about. Thank you soooo much Sophia for helping us find 'the dress'! You made our day and I have one happy daughter! When my other daughter gets engaged, we'll be sure to call on Sophia and I think all of you brides-to-be should call Sophia too! You won't be disappointed! Sophia will help you to say “YES TO THE DRESS” !!!!!
