How to Make the Most of Your Trunkshow Experience:

1. Book Early: These events can fill up fast, so be sure to secure your spot in advance. Some of these styles may not return to the store again – you don’t want to miss out on the dress of your dreams!
2. Bring Your Squad: Gather your closest friends + family and make it a day to remember. Their opinions and support will make the experience even more joyful.
3. Keep an Open Mind: While it’s great to have an idea of what you want, be open to surprises! Trunkshows often feature unique designs that you might fall head over heels for.
