Welcome back for another bride of the month! Today we are featuring one of our AMAZING brides, Jordan! We had so much fun working with her through her wedding dress journey and are so excited to feature her as one of our BOTM gals.

cailyn
Welcome back lovelies! It’s another fabulous edition of Bride of the Month! We put a big emphasis on fabulous as our next bride, Cailyn, had a destination that many brides and grooms can only dream of. We are talking about the wonderful Disney World. Cailyn was such a fantastic bride to work with, and we loved hearing about her Disney vision every time she visited. We also couldn’t help but swoon over Cailyn’s dress, one of our favorite wedding dresses in the shop and such a perfect match for her fairy tale venue. Before we go on, we must give credit to the Cassie Peech & Company for the ah-mazing photos. Now onto Cailyn and Anthony’s wedding story!

paula
Welcome back to another fabulous edition of The White Dress Bridal – Bride of the Month! We can’t believe it’s been almost a year since we last saw our next BOTM, Paula. She was a wonderful bride to work with all the way from finding the perfect wedding dress through alterations to wishing her the best of luck and congratulations when she took her dress just days before the big day! We were so happy when we saw Paula’s application to be the next BOTM in the mail. Plus the wedding photos… who wouldn’t want to have a Northern Michigan wedding?! Going from the beach to the woods all in one day sounds like a blast and made for some truly amazing photos. Speaking of the amazing photos, we have to give all the credit to Meg of Paxton Photography. Now onto Paula and Christopher’s wedding day!

ramona
We are so happy to be back with a new Bride of the Month! It has been a few months, but we definitely have not forgotten about any of our wonderful brides. Our next real TWD bride, Ramona, had a fantastic beach wedding in South Carolina. Her simple chiffon from our wedding gown boutique fit perfectly with the beach venue and only enhanced the bride’s natural beauty. We also can’t help but be a little jealous of Ramona’s sunny wedding day! If only we could get some of that sun during this long cold winter. Credit for these fabulous photos goes to Charleston Photo Art. Now onto Ramona and Mark’s wedding day!

marissa
Welcome back lovelies! It’s another exciting edition of Bride of the Month! And we cannot help but gush about our next bride, our very own TWD-ette Marissa!

With so many choices, Marissa had a tough decision ahead of her. But we think you can agree that she made an excellent choice and made for a beautiful bride. Before we get started, we want to give credit for the amazing photos: Matt and Ashley Photography, you rock! Now let’s get started with Marissa and Kyle’s love story! Read the rest of her story

Felicia
We are back with another fun edition of TWD’s Bride of the Month! This month we are featuring Felicia. Though it was one of the hottest days in June, Felicia rocked it out and was such a beautiful bride! Felicia’s dress, a classic lace trumpet silhouette with a beaded belt for just a touch of sparkle, was a great fit for her. We loved looking through the photos of the fun-loving couple, from the first look to the reception. We know you will enjoy them too! Before we start, we must recognize Brooke Foorman Photography for the fantastic photos. Now let’s get started with Felicia and Eric’s love story…

Hello lovelies! Between all the TWD-ettes’ babies being born and the busy summer season, it has been some time since we last posted about one of our wonderful brides. But, we are finally back to share our next FANTASTIC Bride of the Month – real TWD bride, Katherine. Her big day happened to be on one of the windiest days in November, but this ended up creating some stunning photos!

kristen
Could we be more in love with the wedding photos from our next Bride of the Month!? {The answer is no.} We think you will also fall in love with the love story of Kristen and Rob – so be prepared to swoon over some gorgeous photos! TWD Owner, Kristy worked with Kristen on her wedding dress journey and she recalls that after she described her wedding dress vision, she had a hunch that the gown Kristen did end up choosing could be a front-runner! Kristen’s wedding gown perfectly suited her and her wedding, and she made the dress look simply perfect! Ok, let’s get this BOTM started! Oh, and before we begin – all the stunning photography below was captured by Carrie House Photography.

rachael
It is with lots of love that we introduce you to our next Bride of the Month! Rachael is TWD-ette Marissa’s sister and her wedding dress journey was filled with lots of fun with every visit! Her time at TWD began long before she even was engaged, helping us with large events and stopping by to say hello and visit the dresses! After we found out about her engagement, we were super excited to figure out which dress she would choose – and she chose a beautiful, beautiful gown…which was made even more beautiful by her wearing it! We can’t wait to show you her ah-mazing wedding photos, shot by the so-talented Margaret Newton Photography. So, let’s begin!

danielle
This month we are featuring one of our wonderful brides, Danielle. Every time Danielle visited The White Dress, she was filled with lots of positive energy – and her dress search was extra fun as her dress was a sample gown in our store! As we say, we are always happy when our sample gown has a good home to go to. Before we go into Danielle’s feature, I must say – you are in for a treat! This wedding is filled with beautiful details and gorgeous photography by Tim Kamppinen Photography. Without further ado, we introduce you to the love story of Danielle and Andy…

ashleigh
We are back with another lovely TWD Bride, Ashleigh! And this time we are going to mix things up a little bit. Instead of showing off her beautiful wedding photos, we are going to showcase Ashleigh’s beautiful wedding video. {It’s a nice change, no?} Before we begin though, one of the things we remember most about Ashleigh is that she had her hair and makeup styled by Shine Salon which, if you have ever been to TWD, you know that this adorable little salon is located in the same building as TWD! We remember seeing her on her wedding day and were able to give her a hug and well wishes just before she got married! {And let us say, that was such a fun treat! It is rare when we get to see our brides on their actual wedding day!} Now, it is time to read all about Ashleigh and Matt’s big day in this edition of Bride of the Month:

mary
Welcome to another edition of TWD’s Bride of the Month! We are proud to introduce you to Mary, who was married on a lovely Fall day last year. She picked out a stunning Lis Simon gown at our Ann Arbor Bridal Boutique – it was simple, shimmery, and beautiful! Her wedding reception was held at Waldenwoods and the love between the couple is apparent in the lovely photos you are about to see! Which, by the way, were taken by Sabreena Konsdorf. So, let’s get started!

sarah
Welcome to this month’s edition of Bride of the Month! We are excited to share with you another beautiful wedding from another beautiful TWD bride! Sarah married her love, Camron, on a lovely summer day. (Don’t you love when the weather cooperates?!) Anyway, long before the actual beautiful day you are about to see, Sarah visited TWD, bridal boutique Ann Arbor Michigan. We remember her visit because she looked stunning in dress after dress. (She had quite a challenging decision on her hands!) But we still remember when she tried on her actual dress – it was like the dress was made for her! You will soon see for yourself just how lovely Sarah looked in her dress on her wedding day, so let’s commence! Oh, and we can’t forget to give credit where it’s due – all images below are from Eileen Cote Photography.

elizabeth
What can we say about this beautiful wedding that you are about to see? Filled with love. A beautiful and beaming bride. A happy and handsome groom. Filled with tons of little details. SUCH a beautiful setting. Happiness just shines through these gorgeous photos and we couldn’t be happier to show you all the beauty that is Elizabeth and Trevor’s wedding. Sigh, this is what weddings are all about – making it your own, enjoying every moment, and love, love, love! Elizabeth was the sweetest bride and we remember her very first visit to TWD when she was so surprised to find her dress! Her mother and sisters were so sweet, and tears were shed by all once Elizabeth donned her beautiful dress. The experience was made even sweeter when the headpiece worn by her grandmother was hand-delivered to the shop by her Dad in that very same appointment – it was a perfect match for Elizabeth and really complimented the dress she fell in love with. Ok, I am sure we could continue our swooning and adoration of Elizabeth and this gorgeous wedding, but why don’t we just let you see how beautiful it was for yourself. As such, let’s commence this month’s Bride of the Month! Oh, and we must give credit to the fabulous gal who captured these photos – Kristeen Marie Photography.

clare
Are you ready? Ready to be blown away by some beautiful wedding photos? We are! And it is no surprise that we are secretly in love with this gorgeous wedding belonging to TWD bride, Clare, and her new husband, Erik, in the latest edition of TWD’s Bride of the Month! We enjoyed every moment Clare was in our shop – with her super fun personality, we always had a great time! And as it happens with our brides, it was sad to say goodbye to Clare when she was ready to get married! {What can we say, we get attached to our brides!} So when Clare decided to apply for our Bride of the Month, we were only too excited to peruse her gorgeous photos and get her feature written! So, without further ado, let’s get this started! Oh, and we must give photo credits to Dusty Brown Photography.

melissa
Are you ready for a dash of patriotism and a wedding full of sentimental touches? We certainly are! Our latest Bride of the Month, Melissa, was married last Spring to the love of her life, Jesse. Jesse, a military man, wore his dress blues for the wedding, and – dare we say it – looked just dashing! We enjoyed working with Melissa on her wedding dress journey – and even though we had only known Melissa for the length of her first appointment at TWD, Bridal store, it was almost like her dress chose her – the dress just seemed to fit her personality!) And of course, every time she wore her gown, she just glowed! So, without further ado, let’s showcase this lovely wedding! (All photos below were taken by Anderson Studios.)

emma
Can we just say how excited we are for our next Bride of the Month?! The lovely and oh-so bubbly Emma visited TWD almost two years ago on the search for her perfect dress, and find it she did! Her beautiful Liz Fields tulle gown was light-weight and had just enough whimsy to match Emma’s personality perfectly! We had such a fun time with Emma each time she visited TWD – she even came back for a Real TWD Bride Fashion Show so she could wear her lovely dress again! Her wedding was a lovely affair, and we just can’t wait to share it with you. So, let us get started. Oh, and before we forget to mention it, all the photos below were taken by Dick’s Studio of Ithaca.

lindsay
Are you ready for another TWD Bride of the Month? We sure are – so let us introduce you to Lindsay! When Lindsay first visited The White Dress, Brighton Bridal Boutique, she came with a large entourage filled with wonderful friends and family – it was a super fun appointment in which she said yes to her fabulous sparkly, ruffly, and all-girly gown! We also got the opportunity to outfit her bridesmaids, who wore all different dresses by Alfred Sung in the same color and fabric. (Love showcasing each girl’s personality and style, don’t you?!) It was always a fun time when Lindsay came to The White Dress, so we were super excited when she came back a few months ago with one of her recently engaged friends. Lindsay is proof that when you become a TWD bride, you are always welcome back at The Brighton Bridal Boutique! Ok, let’s get this feature started! (Please note that all images are by Timeless Expressions Photography.)

jamie
It has been a looooong time since our last Bride of the Month, and for that please accept our sincerest apologies! {With summer wedding season in full swing, we are having a hard time keeping up with our blogging!} So, without further ado, let us introduce to you the latest TWD bride, Jamie!
Jamie visited our shop many moons ago and was married last summer to her love, Andrew. In fact, it has been such a long time from when we first met her, when she came back with her friend {a new TWD bride} a few months ago, we found out she had a little bun in the oven! Congratulations to Jamie and Andrew on their soon-to-be new little one…and on their marriage, which we can’t wait to share with you – starting now!

helen
We are super excited to be back with another beautiful wedding featured as our Bride of the Month! Why are we so excited you may wonder? Because this wedding is so full of life and love and fun…we wish we could have been invited! Helen married her love, Mark, last summer, and the photography here captures all of the excitement of their gorgeous wedding day. Helen (and all of her wonderful bridesmaids) were so much fun to be around – all of us at TWD enjoyed working with Helen and her girls in the months leading up to the big day. So without further ado, let’s start!
Oh, and all photo credits go to Christine Dias Photography (formerly Harper Grace Photography).

paige
We are super excited to be back showcasing another real TWD bride in this latest edition of TWD’s Bride of the Month. Paige was wed last January and wore one of our favorite gowns for a winter wedding. Every time Paige came into our Bridal shop Michigan, she was as calm as could be…and very, very excited to be getting married to her best friend. She was a true joy to work with and we loved seeing her big day came to life in this BOTM!
And one final note, all the photos in the post below are compliments and work of Lori Taylor of LA’s Photography. So without further ado, let’s commence Paige’s story!

teri
Welcome to another installment of TWD’s Bride of the Month! We are excited to share with you real TWD, wedding gown boutique Michigan bride, Teri’s, gorgeous wedding day! Teri was a TWD “original” bride – meaning she purchased her dress with us in our very first year as a bridal boutique…oh the love that we have for those girls! {Sorry to digress, but we have to share the love when it’s due!} And one more final note – all the images below were taken by the wonderful Matt Mollan of Mollan Photography. So now, without further ado, let’s get started!

katie
Welcome to another installment of TWD’s Bride of the Month. This time we are featuring the wonderful wedding of Katie and Tim! We remember when Katie came into our shop (well over a year ago now) to try on gowns – she was between two dresses that were extremely different in style, and ended up with a gorgeous lace ballgown! (As a side note, we think she made the best choice!) We also had the pleasure to work with Katie and her bridesmaids who wore a lovely pop of yellow to compliment the military blues worn by the groom. And we always give credit where credit is due – all the photos below are compliments of Christinas Photography. So now, without further ado…let’s commence this month’s BOTM!

erin
It is with great pleasure that we share with you this next Bride of the Month! Every time that Erin entered TWD, we could feel her energy and enthusiasm for her wedding, and just life in general! We had a blast with her (and her mom!) from the initial visits in which she found “the one” all the way through alterations and our final hug goodbye. We are super excited to showcase her lovely wedding in all its glory, as captured by the seriously amazing Ksenija Savic! Ok, we can’t hold off any longer…let’s begin!
-
ruthie
Welcome to another installment of TWD’s Bride of the Month! We are super excited to showcase this wedding because the bride, Ruthie, was the 2nd bride ever to purchase her dream dress at The White Dress Bridal boutique Brighton Michigan! {Oh, the memories!} Ruthie was a complete blast to work with every time she visited our little shop. Enthusiasm and positivity radiated from her as evidenced by her ever smiley face. What else can we say – Ruthie was one glowing bride and we are so happy to show you her wedding story. And one more thing before we get started – all the photos below were taken by L.A.’s Photography.
So, without further ado…

We couldn’t be more excited to be back with another gorgeous TWD Bride of the Month! And trust us, this wedding was worth the wait. After all, you are about to be immersed in some of those dreamy wintry wedding photos that we here at TWD just can’t get enough of! (So we are warning you now – be prepared to swoon a little.)

katie
We are back with another installment featuring one of TWD’s beautiful brides – Katie! (Did we ever say how much we love our jobs? Who wouldn’t want to swoon over gorgeous wedding photos? And the best part is that we have had such a long term relationship with each and every bride that we feature, that seeing the wedding photos make us a little teary eyed.) And I digress again…
Now back to our Bride of the Month. We met the very lovely Katie in one of our first months of being open! She worked with one of TWD’s bridal gown sample sale and very talented bridal style experts, Aleksandra. In her words…

cara
We are beyond excited to finally announce The White Dress’s very first official Bride of the Month! The oh-so-lovely Cara has graciously allowed us to feature her wedding! Be prepared for some gorgeous photos ahead.
A few general notes before we begin. First of all, to make these posts a bit more “user-friendly” we have decided to follow a question and answer format…jammed packed with lots of beautiful wedding photos, of course! And secondly, all of the below photos were taken by Bobbi Rattai Photography.

christine
So full disclosure. As I am sure you have figured out, how can we possibly have a Bride of the Month when we have barely been open yet? (We can’t fool you, smarty pants.) Well, it’s true. Our very first Bride of the Month didn’t get her dress at The White Dress, Michigan bridal shop. But, that doesn’t make her any less fabulous (as you will soon see). And Christine graciously decided to give us a hand by showing all of you just what being Bride of the Month means. Thank you Christine!
And one last very important note. All photographs, unless otherwise noted, are by Kai Heeringa Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. (And as you will see, Kai and Kayley are jaw dropping ah. maz. ing.)
So, without further ado… Read the rest of her story
