Custom Gown Design + Christi Johnson

We got the most beautiful picture in an email this week with a sweet note that said:

I just wanted to thank you again for my beautiful "custom" wedding dress!!! I received so many complements on my dress & how I looked on my wedding day & it would not of been possible without you! I'm so glad I found your shop online & made the drive from Georgetown. I've attached a picture of my groom & I... Thank you again for being apart of my special day!!!

With love,

Christi Johnson

Wedding: Sept. 1, 2012

We had so much fun working with you Christi as well as your sweet family too! Thank you for sending us the best gift... a picture of you on your special day & a note!!! The note was so kind and we appreciate you so much!!!

We loved working with Christi to personalize a custom wedding dress for her. Christi could not find a dress that had everything she wanted for her special day. She met with one of our designers and she got the most gorgeous look that is exactly what she hoped for. It was so great to see Christi choose a dress that was unlike anything she asked for when she came in. A lot of brides come in and want one thing and walk out with another. It means the bride is open minded and we love that because it makes our job so much fun to see everything fall into place as we see that smile on her face when it's all come together!

Allegra: Feature Bride | Ava's Bridal Couture

A beautiful Catholic wedding with traditional Mexican flair best describes Allegra and Cesar’s wedding day. They said, “I Do” on May 28, 2016, and will forever cherish the memories made with their family and friends. Allegra had a vision for her wedding day, and it was our job to help her find a gown that would complement every other detail. THE DRESS After an unsuccessful bridal appointment at another shop, Allegra found herself at Ava’s. Feeling a bit discouraged, she explained her wants and needs to her consultant. She was looking for an all lace gown, white or off-white in color, a decent train, and some sort of sleeve. Kelly, her consultant, pulled several styles for Allegra, keeping her requests in mind, and throwing in a few other styles to reinforce her original requests. Allegra was pleasantly surprised to have loved a number of these gowns, but still reverted to a gown that almost matched her vision exactly; Allure Bridals’ Style #2800. This gorgeous s

Happy Mother's Day Wifey's!

One of the oh so many things I love about bridal shop happenings... the meaningful relationships. We meet a bride, she buys her wedding dress... the end, right? I sure hope not! Over the past 12 years in business, I have met some of the most amazing men and women who were once customers at some point in time. They definitely bought more than "just a dress" or "just a service". We make so many memories together, form a relationship and that relationship is so special! No two customers are ever alike. You would think after 12 years it would get old. Would it be the same day after day? Year after year? Same old stories, same old song and dance? Thankfully for me, it doesn't! Today's blog, I am thinking of all of our past brides who became a wifey after saying "I Do". Perhaps the journey as a wife means you want to become a mom. Maybe you have decided you want a family with kiddos... Maybe you are marrying into a family with children... Maybe y

New Building Under Construction Nearby!

You won't need to drive far from our current location on Debbie Lane to see us at our new building under construction! After 10 years making Debbie Lane our "home" for Say Yes to the Dress moments and memories, we reached a crossroads and made a big decision to merge the two locations while under construction. How can we keep up with new generations and stay on the cutting edge for our two stores? Our current lease at 1205 E Debbie Lane ended at the New Year of 2018. We secured an awesome new property for our bridal business to focus more on customer experience, convenience and online shopping! Many of you have seen Ava's Bridal in Fort Worth grow this past year in our new building on Camp Bowie. The space on Camp Bowie is nearly 3 times the square footage of our previous space. This past year in our new building has been a dream come true. We are so thankful for the response received from past, present and future customers and have grown our onl
