the happiest little places.

recently i took my sister (the maid of honor) bridesmaid dress shopping...well, we were bridal dress shopping too but the main point of the day was to find a beautiful bridesmaid dress!

lucky for me my sister is a model (not really, but she could be!) and looks amazing in everything!!! so in shopping, it comes down to color, mostly. anyway, on our journey around baltimore bridal shops...we came acrossed two amazing little places that i would recommend to anyone wanting a great and unique bridal experience...

1. the first place was bella bridesmaid. they have them all over the u.s. i think, so check your area! but they are still boutique-y and unique. loved this little place in federal hill, md (they are moving to fells point shortly). they carry so many gorgeous dresses, but one thing i was taken by was the jewelry they carry...

kendra scott jewelry - BEAUTIFUL

LOVE! and then...

2. the second lovely place was Garnish Boutique! not only is Mia, the owner, a doll!!! but she knows her stuff...and is super helpful. they carry gorgeous dresses in every color you can imagine...and the shop itself is so beautiful and calm, ahhhh. seriously the best experience!!!!!

craig & i haven't decided wedding colors yet (i know i know, you are thinking aqua & red right? everyone keeps saying that to me...but i just want to differentiate the wedding and the business...so im trying to find a new color combo. so far it's not workin out ;)... i keep going back to my beloved aqua!) so anyway, in the meantime the dress has yet to be determined, but, hopefully, we can go with a dress from one of these adorable places and support local businesses!!!!
