This no-frills bridal salon caters to those brides looking for significant savings and a one-of-a-kind gown. Owner Kelly Hamilton opened the store 21 years ago when she was a bride herself, searching for a beautiful dress that didn't cost a small fortune, and her idea to open a once-worn dress shop was born. Brides can expect to find styles ranging from the 1930s to modern Vera Wang at a fraction of retail cost—from $500–$1,000. If you can dream it, their seamstress can bring your vision to life, and basic alterations will only set you back about $150. Brides are also welcome to take photos, but due to the tiny space, it's best to leave the entourage at home. By appointment only.
