Wedding gown shopping can be one of the funnest times in the getting married journey. It’s also something a lot of women are nervous about because trying on clothes brings up a lot of body issues. Thankfully wedding gown shops do everything they can to make the experience a great one and the two I talk about today really knock it out of the park. So let’s get into these two gorgeous wedding gown shops in Houston!
Olivia’s Bridal House
Olivia’s Bridal House is the only wedding gown shop in Houston that caters to curvy and plus sized brides. The owner Nicole makes it a mission to carry brands that others stores don’t, so that the store’s collection is totally unique. Their gowns start at a size 14 and go up from there. As someone who is plus sized, I wish this shop had been around when I was gown shopping 9 years ago. They carry gowns from designers like WToo by Watters, Casablanca and Pantora Bridal, who create gowns that give women killer silhouettes. The amazing thing about this shop, is that it makes women with curves feel not only normal but beautiful!! If you are a size 10 or above, I highly recommend checking them out!
Whittington Bridal
Whittington Bridal’s Houston location, is a favorite of my brides! They carry a ton of sizes, including plus size! The store inventory goes up to a size 30, which is exciting, because it can be a struggle to find plus size sample gowns to try on. They have a huge selection of designers, from Stella York, to Eddie K and Kenneth Winston. My brides who have gotten gowns here have raved about their experience, saying that the team made finding a gown painless. That it was fun and that they felt pampered throughout the experience. As a photographer, I love the quantity of designers they carry, it gives brides a ton of options and types of gowns to choose from.
