💍 What to Know Before Your First Bridal Appointment
Your dream dress journey starts here — let’s get you ready! ✨

Do Some Style Homework
👗 Browse Pinterest, Instagram, and bridal sites.
Save styles, silhouettes, and designers you’re drawn to — even if you’re not 100% sure what you want yet.
💡 Your stylist will use this inspo to guide your picks!

Know Your Budget
💸 Be clear on what you’re comfortable spending — and who’s contributing.
This helps your stylist pull options that truly fit your vision (and avoid heartbreak later).
💍 Don’t forget to factor in taxes, alterations, and accessories!

Bring the Right People
👯‍♀️ Choose supportive guests who get your style and will uplift you — not overwhelm you.
💬 Less is often more. Two to three trusted voices is the sweet spot!

Wear the Right Undergarments
🔗 Nude or seamless underwear and a strapless bra will help you envision the dresses better.
✨ Bonus: Light makeup and done hair help you feel the bridal vibe too!

Be Open-Minded
🙌 Try on different styles — even ones outside your comfort zone.
You might be surprised what makes you feel like a bride.
Trust your stylist and your gut.

You Can Say Yes at Your First Appointment
🎉 Many brides find “the one” on their first visit — and that’s amazing!
If you feel that spark, go for it. No pressure, just possibilities. 💕

💍 When should you start wedding dress shopping?
Here are the timelines every bride needs to know 👇

12+ Months Before the Wedding
👰 Start browsing!
Get inspired by styles, designers, and silhouettes. Save your favorites on Pinterest or Instagram.
🔍 Look into bridal shops you want to visit and book appointments early. (like ours! 👀)

9–12 Months Before the Wedding
✨ Time to start shopping!
This is the ideal window to say “yes” to the dress.
Why? Most gowns take 6–8 months to arrive after ordering — and you'll want time for fittings!

6–9 Months Before the Wedding
💡 Still shopping? Don’t stress — but act fast.
You’ll need enough time for shipping and alterations. The later you order, the more limited your options may be.

3–6 Months Before the Wedding
🚨 Cutting it close!
You may need to:
• Rush your order
• Choose an off-the-rack gown
• Budget for express alterations
⚠️ Not impossible, but be flexible and decisive!

Under 3 Months to Go
👗 Need a dress now?
Your best bet:
• Off-the-rack styles
• Sample sales
• In-stock designer options
Bridal stylists can still help you look stunning — don’t worry 💕

What’s happening at HCTD ✨ Trunk shows, samples sales and saying goodbye to Betty (sort of)!

There’s no greater compliment than when a bride refers her sister, cousin, coworker, or best friend to our boutique. That means she didn’t just love her dress—she loved the experience enough to send someone she cares about our way. 🥹🤍

In the bridal world, word-of-mouth is everything. We don’t take it lightly when you trust us with your people. Your referrals help our small business grow, and more importantly, they help us create even more beautiful “yes” moments.

So to every past bride, family member, vendor, and friend who’s ever said “You have to go there!”—thank you. You’re the heart of what we do. 💕

#BridalBoutique #GratefulHeart #BrideTribe #ReferralLove #SupportSmallBusiness #BridalExperience #SayYesWithUs

Consider this your inspiration. Choose the veil. 🤍

REAL BRIDE ✨ So many things we could say about Grayce! What a lovely, kind, genuine person. We enjoyed every moment with her and her mom, fitting her dress to perfection. To compliment her gorgeous @eddyk_bridal dress, @justinemcouture created a custom veil just for her. 🤍

✨Details make the dress!✨
Betty worked her magic on these romantic flutter sleeves—delicate, airy, and perfectly tailored to move with grace.

Whether it’s customizing sleeves, adjusting the fit, or reimagining the silhouette, wedding dress alterations are everything. Your gown should feel like it was made just for you—because, with the right hands, it is.

Betty is retiring this summer, but we have some amazing ladies that we recommend to make your dress picture perfect. DM us if you need the list!

✨ At HCTD, it’s all about you.
We specialize exclusively in wedding dresses and bridal accessories—because the bride deserves to feel like the most important person in the room. 💍👰

From the moment you walk in, to the second you say “yes” to the dress, every detail is about celebrating your story, your style, and your moment.

🤍 No distractions. No compromises. Just bridal magic, made personal.

Why HCTD? 🩷 Stop the endless dress search—everything you need is right here. From luxe gowns to white glove service, we’ve created the ultimate bridal experience—and it all starts with our owner and expert stylist, Aubrey.

She knows how to read your style, bring your vision to life, and make you feel like the only bride in the world. No stress, no pressure—just real, honest guidance and the dress you’ve been dreaming of.

We had such a wonderful time making Jackie’s dream dress come to life. The dress she ordered had spaghetti straps, but her vision was strapless and sleeves. Of course, Betty made it happen in the most beautiful way. 🤍
