WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT BEING A BRIDAL STYLIST?

My goal is to make sure every bride I have the pleasure of meeting feels exquisite, special, and confident in her selection. As a mother myself I understand and acknowledge the emotions involved in this once in a lifetime moment and find myself crying with everyone else when a gown is selected. This is the job I've always wanted and truly believe I can make a positive impact on others.
