Featured Bride: Amelia F
We had the pleasure of assisting Amelia in finding the gown of her dreams. She was kind enough to share some photos of her wedding day taken by Jonathan Ivy Photography along with some words . Enjoy!
I was always the girl that said I would never get married, so unlike most girls, I never dreamed of a wedding and especially never imagined what my wedding dress would look like. In Oct. ’10, I got engaged, and at that point, I realized I better figure out the dress that I would wear to walk down the aisle. As a General Surgery Resident, I have very little time, so most nights my fiancé would find me asleep with a wedding magazine on one side and a surgical textbook on the other with an episode of “Say Yes to the Dress” playing on the TV in the background. Needless to say, I had no idea what I wanted to wear, but I knew because I wear scrubs and clogs on a daily basis, that I needed a dress that would be “the dress” for me.
In late January, my sister and mother traveled to Fort Worth to be a part of the special adventure to find my dress. Our first stop was at Bliss Bridal Salon. We walked in, and although I assumed I would feel anxious and stressed, I surprisingly became relaxed and calm. All the pressure of finding the perfect dress quickly subsided as I met Wendy who became my ultimate dress advisor. The shop’s atmosphere was very inviting, and I wasn’t overwhelmed with lots of dresses on racks everywhere. Wendy showed me every dress in the shop and listened to everything I had to say, so by the middle of the appointment, she completely knew my personality and what would work for me. I chose the first dress I picked out and the last dress I tried on which was a beautiful Justin Alexander ballgown. I knew it was the dress for me because, as soon as I put it on, I was smiling, dancing, and laughing.
The whole experience was fun, quick, and comforting, and was the first of many wonderful encounters that I had with the ladies of Bliss. Over the next months getting ready for the wedding, I got my veil and fascinator at a Sara Gabriel trunk show which was another great experience at Bliss. At all of my appointments, I was usually post-- call, near exhaustion, and always alone because my family was not in town. I felt like I became the adopted daughter of Bliss because, at every appointment, the ladies were there to answer all my questions and put any concerns at rest while sharing the joy and excitement of getting the perfect dress for my big day.
On 9/17/11, I married the perfect man on the perfect day in the perfect dress. When I got my dress on, I was smiling, dancing, and laughing just as I was the moment Wendy put me in it back in January. So, in the end, I did get “the dress,” and I honestly don’t think it could have been a better and more enjoyable experience as it was at Bliss. They always accommodated my crazy schedule and were absolutely great to work with. Bliss takes the time to know their clients and are eager to get as much information about their hopes and dreams of the big day as well as the wedding venue so that they can put you in the best dress. All of the ladies are wonderful to work with and very professional. You may walk in the salon as a customer but you leave feeling like a friend, or even in my case, an adopted daughter. My wedding day was the best day of my life, and my experiences with Bliss helped to make that happen.

Thank You Notes: Seikesha Hardgraves
During our Brides Across America event, we had the pleasure of donating a gown to Seikesha as her fiance was currently deployed and would be returning the next year for their wedding. The day has finally come and we are thrilled to be able to share these pictures with you! Seikesha added a small note to thank us for helping her find the gown of her dreams!
I found out about you all through hearing about a program called Brides Across America in which you participate. I came in not expecting much and left with the dress of my dreams at no cost! You all then blessed me again after I was on the news because I had received the dress. From there it was an out pour of love and support to help make the wedding dreams come true for a lonely military spouse. You all were one of the best things to ever happen to me and I could never in a million years repay you for that. I had the wedding of my dreams that I thought I would never be able to have and it all started with a lovely little shop and the kind hearts of strangers! Thank you so much and may God continue to pour blessings onto a place that truly blesses others. Much Love, Seikesha Hardgraves-Joseph & Family
Thank you Seikesha for allowing us to be a part of this wonderful day! We are truly blessed to have you as a bride!

Featured Bride - Whitney B
We had so much fun helping Whitney select her gown! She was kind enough to share some pictures of her special day from Bella Bee Photography with us along with some words about her gown shopping experience! Enjoy!
I went shopping and found my dress in 1 day! I went to another store in Dallas and then Bliss after that. My dress was the first one I tried on at Bliss and I knew it was the one!! Michele was the one that helped me and she was SO wonderful to work with. I was torn between two types of dress which happen to be polar opposites. I either wanted a lace fitted dress with a v-neck or I wanted an high wasted A-line dress with a sweetheart neck. I had seen a dress very similar to the dress I purchased in a magazine weeks before and once I saw it, I fell in love! I brought my mom, my sister and my two best girlfriends with me and we had so much fun! Although it is exhausting trying on so many dresses, it was a wonderful experience and I wouldn't trade it for anything!
The day of the wedding, I couldn't wait to put on my dress! I felt beautiful in the dress and it was one that I could relax in. One of the reasons I loved it was because I felt like I could dance and be myself and not worry so much about everything staying in place. Sure enough, it fit like a glove on the day of and I danced the night away! LOVED my Bliss experience and would recommend it to anyone
