Finding Mari Mi and Monet, was honestly a gift from God. I had been engaged for about five months, my wedding was more than a year out. I was researching designers and styles, and thought I had a clear image of what I was looking for in a dress.... From there, I started researching bridal salons - trying to limit the amount of salons to shop with, I searched for salons that carried at least 3 out of the 5 designers I was interested in. When I compiled my salon list, I began searching yelp for reviews. My list was getting smaller and smaller. I was reading terrible reviews about salons that I planned to visit. I decided I would circle back to researching salons after the holidays (it was Fall 2018). I went to a bridal event and was given a copy of the Modern Lux Bridal Mag. I was sitting at my dining room table, flipping through the pages when I came across a dress that took my breathe away. This dress was nothing like I had envisioned myself wearing, by a designer and at a salon I had never heard of - completely out of my radar. I made an appointment with Monet - during her busy black friday weekend sale. While she was only offering 60 minute appointments this weekend, she gave me a private 90 minute appointment. I continued to look through the racks and pull dresses (ones that I thought I would want) to try on in addition to this breathtaking gown I saw in the magazine. I could not believe how many gowns I was interested in, in this small boutique. Monet was great, she is kind, patient, and goes above and beyond! I tried on my breathtaking dress and cried, I'm pretty sure Monet cried too! She has style and class and it shows in her meticulous salon. Ladies, book with her! You will not be disappointed. Don't be discouraged by the size of her salon, there are plenty of beautiful pieces to choose from.
