We are so excited to announce the launch of our newest bridal line ROSA CLARA. This spectacular Spanish line offers beautiful gowns for the high fashion bride who doesn't want to spend her whole wedding budget on a dress. A ROSA CLARA design is based upon two of the biggest trends this year in bridal gowns....One, the simple, fitted style with clean lines made of elegant fabrics. The other spectacular volume. A ROSA CLARA bride also appreciates the delicate lace and floral accents which make her dress truly spectacular. Check out two of our favorites.


"Clarke"





"Byron"




And it wasn't too long ago that many of us witnessed on tv Jason Mesnick marry his beautiful bride Molly. She looked absolutely stunning in her $45,000 Monique Lhuiller dress, however for those of us who don't have ABC paying for our bridal gowns, ROSA CLARA can offer you a similar style with a more affordable price tag.

Bridesmaid Beauties... Keepin' the Girls Flawless

Time and time again we hear how bride's want their bridesmaids to look and feel beautiful in what they pick out for them. As different as they all are personality-wise, so are their body types. Here are a few tip on how to Keep the Girls Flawless:


TIP 1: Choose a flattering style, some of the hottest styles right now are long and flowy such as
B2's B2078 and Belsoie's L3001

We are also seeing a growing interest in cold shoulders and taffetas:

Mori Lee's #264 and #805

Tip 2: If you you decide the easiest route to please everybody and fit the different body types is to let the girls pick out their own dress.... GREAT!!! You just need to choose the designer, fabric, and color and we'll take it from there :)

Tip 3: Remember standard shipping is 12 to 14 weeks on bridesmaid orders. We can get the dresses faster but there will be an additional fee.

Tip 4: Rule of thumb, the number of bridesmaids you have is the the number of weeks it will take to get all bridesmaids measurements and deposits to order the dresses! If your bridesmaids live out of town *DON'T WORRY* have your beauties find a local seamstress (most drycleaners have one) and have them measure their bust, waist, and hips and call them in.

Tip: 5: Be courteous to your seamstress and allow at least one month for alterations!

If you have any questions, want to check out our selection, or need to schedule an appointment with your bridesmaids stop by or call us at 479-646-1997!
