Congratulations to any of you who are brides-to-be in 2012 or planning your wedding in 2012!  We think it is a wonderful time to be planning a wedding, with so many options for your gown, party attire, accessories and wedding theme and we are very excited with the collections and services we offer this season.  For those of you who’ve visited us before, we’ve made some exciting changes and updates.  If you’ve never visited us we invite you to do so.  We have the region’s largest collection of bridal gowns with over 1200 different styles in stock (and about 1400 bridal gowns in the store) including the largest modest and full-figured collections you’ll find in the state.  We carry top designers like Casablanca, Liz Fields, Eden and Impression, but also have several private labels including our Randolph James, Sophie and Camilla, and I-Couture collections.  We have great value couture collections and most of our designers offer customization so you never have to stress that you love the bodice of one gown and the skirt from another—our designers can create your dream gown for you for an amazingly affordable price.  We have a huge selection of attendant’s attire with more than 700 bridesmaid samples available for re-order.  Our upstairs ballroom (which has been recently remodeled and updated  with more dressing rooms to reduce your “wait time”)  features our Diamond Value Collection with hundreds of bridal gowns by dozens of top designers priced at 50 to 90% savings off their original prices (and all $499 or less), and mother’s gowns and evening/prom wear priced $89 or less.  Our upstairs ballroom also contains one of the area’s largest evening and prom collections with hundreds of one-of-a-kind and re-orderable dresses from top designers.  We even offer rental of chair covers, sashes, and related décor at very affordable prices with delivery and set up available. 

We know you have many options and we want our customers to know we appreciate their business and their loyalty.  So, when you buy a dress with us we always offer you 20% off any accessory (i.e., shoes, jewelry, veils, undergarments) you purchase from us, and brides driving more than 40 miles to shop at Bellisima will receive an automatic $20 “gas credit” applied against the purchase price of their gown.    We offer free layaway on any dress or merchandise in the store (with as little as 20% down), and free gown storage up to the date or your wedding.   

 Our Dream Gown Giveaway is in full swing now through July 1.  Brides-to-be can pick up their entry card at area bridal shows we attend or we’ll have one waiting when you arrive for your consultation.  Every card wins something, including discounts from 5 to 0%, shoes, jewelry, veils, gown preservation, and two lucky game cards this season are good for the gown of your dreams (value up to $850 or a credit for $850 if you choose a gown priced higher).  So far we’ve had a few 25% discounts and some free veils, but no dream gown winner yet.  So, get your entry card and schedule your consultation soon.  Plus, when you schedule your bridal consult before the end of February, your bridesmaids will receive 20% off any bridesmaid orders placed by the end of February even if the bride does not end up purchasing her gown at Bellisima. 

We wish you all the best in planning your special day and hope you will consider Bellisima Bridal & Tux for your wedding attire and décor rental needs.
