Honeymoon Hot Spot: Turks & Caicos

By
 For any of you looking for a beautiful, quiet and secluded place to honeymoon, check out Turks and Caicos.  Zach and I read on The Knot that this was the top places for honeymooners because of it's private, safe beaches, great dining/entertainment and beautiful island surroundings.
The most private, uninhabited beaches and scenery in the Caribbean.   
TCI reminded us a lot of Kaui, Hawaii which is where we spent our honeymoon years ago.  The buildings weren't built up and the pace of the island was "Island Time".  Don't expect to have the technology on the island that you have back home.  They lost internet connection on the entire island one of the days we were there and the entire place was removed from the world wide web. :)  It could be our one day experience, but I didn't mind being separated from the real world for a few days or so.

The best fine dining you can find!  We ate at several amazing restaurants while in our stay.  One of the attractions we read in our welcome magazine was the dining experience on TCI.   Our top 3 favorite restaurants were all recommended to us so we will share them with you:  Bay Bistro  is near the resort we stayed at along the beach front was a smaller restaurant, but we love that about it.  The good was amazing, of course, but the chef came out to greet tables when he wasn't busy and I loved that personal touch.  Our 2nd favorite dinner spot was Mango Reef  which was another restaurant that was on the water and they have tables that over look the ocean and tables that are ocean front.  The menu is the same either way so we highly recommend it.  It was never crowded... EVER... so this never created any problems while we were there.  Our all time favorite place was Coco Bistro this restaurant was off the main tourist area and set among a palm tree garden.  The lighting, scenery, food, service... all unmatched.  We usually ate so much that we didn't really have dessert, but here we had to keep going even though we were so stuffed!
So much to see and experience:   
We did a whole lot of nothing while we were there... you know, things like: reading on the beach, sleeping on the beach, swimming  floating in the ocean, watching people walk by, walking on the beach, eating on the beach, etc.  It was the best "nothing" I have done in a long time.  We did do some diving, snorkeling  parasailing, kayaking and boating while we were there... all highly recommended!  The parasailing was awesome because we could see just how narrow the islands were and from up there you can get perspective.  If any of you have any questions about visiting TCI, let me know and I would be happy to answer any questions!
All my best, Sue

Miranda: Feature Bride | Classy Concepts Bridal Boutique

By Anonymous
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!

By
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...
