Hi,
i’m beth
STYLIST
WHERE DOES YOUR PASSION FOR BRIDAL COME FROM?
Growing up, my mom and I always watched Say Yes to the Dress together and it was a moment that I dreamt about for years. When the time finally came, I walked away with the most perfect dress (that I still love to this day!) and the most memorable experience. Having been on the other side of it and knowing how magical of an experience finding your wedding dress is supposed to be, it made me want every bride to have that. There is something so special about making a bride feel her best and that moment where it all clicks is my favorite part of this job. It is truly so rewarding.
WHAT IS ONE THING YOU WISH BRIDES KNEW BUT YOU CAN’T TELL THEM?
This may be a hot take but don’t schedule multiple bridal appointments in one day. By the third appointment you’re so dressed out that you’re not having fun anymore and you’ve lost the magic of this experience. Book at the one store you’re most excited to go to and know that the majority of the time, you will find your dress on the first try. You’re not supposed to try on a bunch of dresses at a bunch of different stores. I always say if I’m doing my job right, you shouldn’t have to try on a million dresses! It’s supposed to be easy and if you trust your stylist to be your biggest advocate and put full faith in her, it will allow you to be present in the moment so you can soak in how magical this process is. If you don’t have an emotional reaction that prompts your say yes moment to one of the dresses you try on that day, only then should you shop at another store another day!
WHAT’S ONE OF YOUR MOST MEMORABLE MOMENTS IN BRIDAL?
I’m not sure how I could ever choose one moment over 5 years that would accurately encompass the day to day with brides because they are all so special and memorable to me. I feel like I have been so fortunate and working with brides is at the core of why I do this. Aside from the day to day with brides, I love having a hand in the buying process and am so grateful that our owner, Jordan, values our input as far as what we think brides will love! There is something so special about a bride saying yes to a dress that you hand picked!
HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING IN BRIDAL?
This fall will mark 5 years!
WHAT ARE YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT OUTSIDE OF WORK?
My boys, Jack and Dutton. I love bridal almost as much as I love being their mom. They are my mini besties.
IF YOU COULD GIVE YOUR BRIDES ONE PIECE OF MARRIAGE/WEDDING ADVICE, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Talk about your love languages! It’s so impactful to be able to show up for your spouse in the way that they need you to.
WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE WEDDING DRESS DESIGNER?
Justin Alexander, hands down. His gowns are truly works of art which is fitting because your bridal gown is the most self expressive thing you will ever wear!
