How did you handle the pandemic? Did your business model change?
Ultimate Bride followed all CDC guidelines and maintained constant communication with our brides. We launched Virtual appointments which allowed us to bring some excitement for our future brides to be. We also launched our private Platinum VIP Experience on Sundays only.
What is your best advice for engaged couples?
Congratulations! Follow your heart and enjoy the special time.

Simply, it’s our Brides.

What is your favorite trend for weddings currently?
We love how our designers have elevated their recent collections by adding a dramatic detail such as a dreamy poet sleeve or a thigh-high slit to add a chic edge. It is so fun to see our brides incorporate daring and unique elements to take their bridal look to the next level.
What is the most gratifying part of your business?
When our brides find their gown, have their moment with their families and allow us to celebrate with them.
