our brides feel seen & heard
“LaNoire Bridal is such a hidden gem, and Lorraine is a lovely woman! The shop is beautiful, and the experience is incredibly and intimate. You get a one on one, private appointment, along with refreshments to boot! I came in with an idea of what I wanted, and left with a completely different idea!! Lorraine was very attentive to my desires, respectful of my budget, and made sure that I was happy with everything. If I didn’t like something, no need to come out of the room! She was honest in what looked good on my body, and wasn’t pushy in the least!!”
