“I honestly cannot find the words to describe just how incredible my experience with House of White was. They made wedding dress shopping one of the most memorable, joyful, and seamless parts of my entire wedding planning journey. From the moment I walked in to find my dress, to the final pick-up, and even through the preservation process, their team was amazing in every possible way. Their attention to detail is truly unmatched, and they are some of the most genuinely kind and helpful people I have ever worked with. They listen, they care, and they know exactly how to make a bride feel celebrated. If you are looking for your dream dress and want an unforgettable experience, look no further. I cannot recommend House of White highly enough!”

ABOUT THE COUPLE

“Blake Riley- We first met our freshman year of high school and stayed close friends, floating around the same friend group for all four years. After high school, college and career moves took us in different directions, and we only saw each other every once in a while. That all changed a few years ago when he took a job closer to home—we reconnected, and the rest is history!”

WEDDING DAY ADVICE FOR FUTURE BRIDES

“Stay organized, have vendors you trust, and enjoy every moment! The planning, the events leading up to the wedding, and the big day itself will go by faster than you can possibly imagine, so pause and soak it all in. Hire a vendor team you trust completely so you can actually step back and enjoy your day. look at the room together and take in the magic of it all. It goes by in a flash, so don't forget to look around at your village of people who love and support you and smile!”

WHEN YOU KNEW YOUR GOWN WAS “THE ONE”

“House of White made finding my dress so effortless! They took my inspiration pictures and pulled styles that matched my vision perfectly, while also encouraging me to try a few options I never would have picked for myself. While every gown I tried on was beautiful, there really is an unforgettable feeling when you put on "the one"—my dress was everything I could have ever wanted and more. The team made the entire process so easy and truly made sure every single detail I dreamed of came to life.”

FAVORITE ACCESSORY FROM YOUR WEDDING DAY

“My favorite accessory was an easy choice: the puff sleeves! Fun fact—my mom also wore puff sleeves on her wedding gown, which made them feel even more special. A very close second was the huge bow on the back—it was beautiful, elegant, and absolutely stunning!”

A SPECIAL MOMENT FROM YOUR WEDDING DAY

“Doing a first look was easily one of my favorite decisions of the entire day—it allowed us to spend so much more time together and kept me completely calm. Instead of hiding away, I got to spend the best day of my life right beside my best friend. Reading our private vows before the ceremony was easily the most memorable part of our day, giving us a quiet, meaningful moment to ourselves before celebrating the night away with all of our friends and family.”
