The Perks of a Premium Appointment
Whether you go for the Carolina Suite or the full VIB Experience, both options offer:
Privacy: No distractions, no awkward moments, just you, your guests, and your stylist focused on finding your dream dress.
Personalized Styling: Submit a style board or chat with your stylist ahead of time, and we’ll pre-pull dresses that match your vision.
Zero Overwhelm: Many brides say yes to their dress after just 2–3 tries because we do the homework for you.
Memorable Touches: Bubbly toasts, sweet bites, and beautiful memories you’ll cherish long after your wedding day.
Real Brides, Real Love - Some Of Our Testimonials!
Taylar Wade shares:
“My stylist found the perfect dress for me based on the style board I submitted. I only tried on three gowns before I found the one - and it was even under my budget! The curated experience made such a difference. The space is gorgeous and the champagne toast at the end was the perfect touch.”
ChyNa Villegas says:
“The VIB treatment was AMAZING! They picked out about 7 dresses based on what I wanted, and I said yes to dress #3. The attention to detail was incredible. My sister found her dress here too - it’s now a family tradition!”
Joelena Walker adds:
“This was my first (and only!) dress shopping experience and Kylie helped me every step of the way. I even got to meet a designer who helped create my dress. The intimacy and aesthetic of their styling rooms is so worth it!”
