Owner

Since I was a little girl, born and raised in St. Charles Parish, I can remember driving past the iconic Town and Country Bridal. I was captivated by the gorgeous gowns in the window. I always felt so drawn to “her.” While attending Loyola University New Orleans, my journey on St. Charles Avenue continued, and the sentiment remained the same: I felt drawn to Town and Country. 

 

After spending time in a marketing a sales career, I left the corporate world to pursue a dream that was born in my grandmother’s living room while watching a bridal episode on Oprah. I opened my own bridal boutique in 2010 and my infatuation with wedding dresses was born. Since then, everyday has been filled with champagne and bridal dreams.

 

In 2016, I had the opportunity of a lifetime: to become the owner of THE Town & Country Bridal, a magical piece of the fabric and tradition of New Orleans brides.

 

I have a confession to make...other than my family and friends, there is nothing I love more than BRIDAL! For me, bridal means so much more than the dress. It's magic, a captivating love story, a mother softly wiping away a tear as her baby girl suddenly becomes a woman. It's the sound of a champagne cork popping & a young woman's tribe gathered to celebrate her unforgettable moment. It's leading with love, doing business with integrity and building lasting relationships with our beloved clients. I, along with my entire team of knowledgable stylists, would be honored to dress you.

 

When not surrounded by BEAUTIFUL white things, you can find me traveling with my husband, Freddie, in the dance studio with my daughter, Linen Jolie or in the bleachers of a basketball game with my son, Cruz.

 

A few of my favorite things: Diet Coke, big hair, any beach with blue water, the sound of my childrens’ laughter and gold bracelets up to my elbows!
