From the moment I walked into Ava Laurénne Bride, I felt like I was with family. In this day and age of Pinterest, social media & pop culture, I had seen pictures of beautiful brides in gorgeous gowns and magical "say yes to the dress" moments & it was hard not to compare and question if I'd ever have that in real life. Well, ALB exceeded those expectations and gave me an experience even better than the movies. The entire staff treated me like their only client & made me feel so beautiful & special. I came in thinking I would get a form-fitting mermaid dress, but when I arrived, I saw a beautiful Justin Alexander ballgown on a mannequin in the sitting area and I knew it was THE dress. They immediately pulled it down for me & agreed with me that it was the one. Once I had MY magical "say yes to the dress" moment, the owner Wendy & her amazing husband Gabe celebrated with me & my family & gave me such a special treat that I will remember & cherish forever. To Wendy, Gabe, & the ALB team, thank you for making my experience better than anything I could have ever imagined. I have recommended ALB to every bride-to-be since & I will never stop singing your praises. Ava Laurenne Bride is simply the best!

I was told by my mom that she scheduled a Princess Treatment appointment for me at Ava Laurénne Bride. I was excited but not sure what to expect. We were immediately greeted outside by Gabe who helped the whole group out of the cars and escorted us inside where Wendy was waiting to greet us all with hugs and smiles. The evening was absolutely amazing. It was not just trying on dresses like I had done at a couple of other stores - this was a whole different experience. Wendy encouraged us all to go through the racks and pick out dresses we liked. All over the store I heard "Amanda look at this!" "What do you think about this one?" and "Oh you have to try this on!" That was one of the best parts of the evening. At other stores I went to, they didn't allow everyone to spread out and shop for dresses on our own and I'm glad we were able to do so at Ava Laurénne! My friends and family felt more connected to the experience and would get excited when I came out in "their" dress. The dresses themselves were unbelievable. They were all gorgeous and there was so much variety I knew my dress had to be there and I am so glad it was! I will forever remember my evening with friends and family at Ava Laurénne. They turned their beautiful shop into our living room for the evening and treated us like family. The night was filled with laughter, story telling and tears of joy. I highly recommend that every bride take the opportunity to experience the Princess Treatment at Ava Laurénne. They truly know how to make a girl feel like a princess!

We love our brides...
