Our Story
Our boutique was designed to offer reduced priced wedding gowns and accessories to women in a relaxed, congenial and supportive atmosphere. Fairytale Brides believes that the importance of the wedding ceremony should be kept on the future couple-to-be, rather than creating unmanageable wedding costs for couples just beginning their married life together. By seeking donations of wedding gowns and accessories we breathe new life into items that were loved and cherished by their former owners. Donating brides are overjoyed to hear that the dresses they fell in love with will be loved yet again by a bride who could only dream of that fairytale dress but could not afford it.
For us, it is not only about selling a wedding dress to a bride, it is about creating the perfect shopping experience for her and her family!

Having learned that true beauty is multifaceted and can be acquired in many ways, our mission has always been to share my God-given knowledge and talents to help make women look and feel beautiful!
