Sleepless in Seattle

Meet my friend Jennifer. She is a Doll!

Recently, we traveled together to Seattle, Washington to have a great weekend trip of fun, sights and a few bridal shops too!

We did not take any photos at the bridal shops we visited, but we did get a chance to see some great sights that were picture worthy.
Pikes Market is one of the places you have to see for yourself to appreciate. Fresh flowers of every kind, local vendors selling everything from roasted nuts and meats to handmade pottery-- to name a few.


I had so much fun watching the vendors at the meat market throw fish at people! Walking around and seeing the displays from the vendors was a great way to spend the day.
The Seattle Needle. You can see it from almost anywhere in the city.
We also toured several amazing wineries in the surrounding areas. This was one that particularly caught my eye becuase of its modern design. Being in Texas, I am so used to seeing the wineries being so rustic and old.
You wouldn't believe they actually use these to make and store wine with them being so sterile looking!
What an amazing view! We took a ferry one day into Bambridge Island and that was such a great area to walk around in, have lunch on the water and do a little shopping or sight seeing.
And last, but certainly not least are the dearest people in the world! What great hosts they were. Michael (left) made the best Chili Verde and whole salmon that we got from the market of of course! He gave me several great recipes that I cannot wait to try! Dean (right) was such a great tour guide and host! He took us to all of the hottest spots throughout the week and weekend which meant so much to Jennifer and me!

Seattle... What a classy concept!

Miranda: Feature Bride | Classy Concepts Bridal Boutique

A big white barn, beautiful pink roses, and plenty of rustic-chic touches made for a perfect summer wedding. Miranda and Bryce were married on July 7, 2016 surrounded by plenty of family and friends. We were so thrilled to have helped her find a dress that tied all her wedding day details together, and absolutely stole the show.  THE DRESS We love it when a bride comes to us with an open mind while searching for the perfect gown. Her only criteria was that her gown must have either have lots of detail or have an open back. Miranda had made one previous stop to our sister store, Ava’s Bridal Couture , and said that there was just no need to look any further after her appointment at Classy Concepts Bridal Boutique . “My experience at Classy was amazing! There was no pressure, and the staff was very helpful in determining just the right one for me”, she said.    Miranda’s consultants encouraged her to try on multiple styles to help determine her tast...
Grandparents are just special people! My grandma has been in ICU since September 23rd, 2007 and it has been a long road to recovery. There was a time when all of us were not sure if she would live through this, but thankfully with prayer of loved ones.... she is now in recovery. They mean so much to me. They are the picture of what love means. They were both born in the 20's and are so young at heart still today. I admire thier strength through all of this and seeing a relationship I could not imagine growing stronger between the two of them warms my heart. Everyone is anxiously awaiting her return home with 2 dogs, daughter Stephanie, Grandpa and a new elevator Grandpa is having put in! :) This picture below was taken in the French Quarter of New Orleans when we took a trip to Louisiana several years ago to see her brother Bill. We had a great time visiting and especially the road trip just for the girls! All my love,

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 a...
