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!

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...

A Beautiful Soul or Two ♡

Words are never enough to capture the essence of a beautiful soul!  We/I first fell in love with Robyn in 2015 when she was planning her daughter Brittany's wedding day. Brittany fell in love with a blush pink fit and flare beaded Maggie Sottero Wedding gown at Ava's Bridal in Fort Worth.    Brittany, a Pediatric Nurse and recent graduate from Texas A&M,   was marrying the love of her life Tillman in May of 2016. Each of our staff fought over who would help Brittany Arrott into her dress.  She was so magnetic and interesting that we never wanted our time with Brittany to end.  Brittany was amazingly beautiful on the outside (she was the portrait of health and wellness & an obvious athlete by her physical appearance) but her beauty from within shined even more brilliant. Brittany was fighting a rare brain cancer with dignity and poise.  I've never seen someone so unwell be so strong.  Robyn (Brittany's Mom) managed a...
