This one's for the MAIDS

We are eagerly gearing up for the Bridesmaid's Event

happening November 4-6th, 2010!

Although receiving a 10% discount on every bridesmaid dress is excitement enough, we just received confirmation that the Melissa Sweet and Priscilla of Boston bridesmaid collections will be visitng our salon in celebration of this event. These dresses are chic, fashion-forward, and best of all, affordable!

 What is the color to look for in 2011? According to Maureen Griol in the Bridal Guide, bridesmaids are going Plum Perfect: "From low-key lavendar to vibrant violets, the color purple is a naid's new best friend."

Bridesmaid's Event: November 4th - 6th, at Bridal Accents Couture

Fabulous prizes, discounts, and new dresses in-store this weekend only! 

Appointments requested: (952) 846-4496

It's Trunk Show Season!! (What does that mean, anyway??)

Many brides-to-be are beginning their search for the perfect dress for their 2011 wedding.  In order to provide the best selection and exciting shopping opportunities, Bridal Accents is in the midst of trunk show season:

In a nutshell, a bridal trunk show is a traveling collection of wedding gowns. The trunk show is usually in a particular salon for one weekend, which means that if you want to see it, it is important to book your appointment early.

 Trunk shows are very exciting events for several reasons: First of all, the gowns included will often be the newest styles from the designer. This means that you may have the chance to try on dresses that are not otherwise available in stores yet. Oftentimes, the sample in the trunk show is the only one in existence of its kind. This makes a trunk show the perfect opportunity to find a dress that will be unique, instead of ending up with the same style as half of the brides in town.

Brides from all over will come to experience the extra selection, positive excitement, and overall special shopping experience that trunk shows offer.  Brides-to-be are coming to take advantage of these specials and are ready to find their gown.

Trunk Shows give brides the opportunity to view more gowns from the featured designer and often offer show specials and discounts--something a bride with any budget will appreciate. One common discount is for a bridal store to offer a 10% discount on gowns ordered during the trunk show. If you think about it, 10% off of a designer gown would be quite a big savings. If you were purchasing a $3500 dress, wouldn't it be great to save $350? With the money you save, you could buy something special for your attendants, like pearl bridesmaid jewelry. If you save enough on the gown, you could even get a whole set of pearl jewelry for each bridesmaid, and really make them feel appreciated.

Trunk shows are really fun events for brides who are looking for that perfect gown. They are a great opportunity to see unique styles, talk to someone from the company, and maybe even get a discount as well. Trunk shows do move on quickly, though, so when you go, if you find your dream dress, be prepared to order it on the spot or you might never see it again!
