“The absolute best experience I’ve had looking for a dress! Caitlin is so kind and welcoming. I was so surprised at how much she had set out for me and allowed me to take my time trying on everything I wanted. I ended up going over my time a little but I never felt pressured or pushed. I’m so glad I took the 2 hour drive to get down to see her. I walked out with my dress and will always recommend Hand-Me-Gowns to every bride I meet! ”
— Stephanie S, Hand-Me-Gowns Bride

Why Hand-Me-Gowns Bridal?

Featuring exclusively preowned wedding dresses, our boutique offers brides-to-be with a wide range of stunning designer gowns that will make you the center of attention on your big day. 

Most of these gowns are hardly worn (and in some cases never worn) and are available as an affordable and sustainable option for your wedding day. At Hand-Me-Gowns Bridal boutique, you can find a wedding gown from your favorite designer at a fraction of the price that you would pay for a completely new dress.

Looking to sell your wedding dress on consignment? We also make it easy for you to consign your wedding dress with us and help another bride-to-be feel like a princess.
