A couple of nights ago I had the opportunity to meet Tara & Beth, the lovely ladies behind Bateau Bridal Boutique. I knew from what I had heard around town and seen online that I would love the place, but in person it truly blew me away. I have been shooting weddings for six years now and this is the first time I have been inspired to blog about a wedding shop. I am so thrilled that there is now a place in Anchorage that offers Alaskan brides this kind of current, in-person dress shopping experience.
There is something special about a small shop where guests have the individual attention of the owners {who are very genuine, approachable and knowledgable}, it is exactly how shopping for a wedding dress should be. Tara & Beth have managed to create a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere. Like you’re right at home, but sipping on a glass of champagne. Both intimate and refined…my kind of place. As I glanced through their stunning gowns, I couldn’t help but wish that I was in the market for a wedding dress…I fell in love with a several.
If you are a bride-to-be, grab couple of friends and make an appointment. You will surely be glad you did. {In fact! This weekend is a great opportunity to see some incredible MIKAELLA gowns at their Trunk Show…they may have a few appointments still available!}
