A&BÉ BRIDAL SHOP IS TURNING TEN AND HAS EXCITING NEWS!
celebration comes in daily doses at each of our a&bé bridal shop locations. we celebrate wins of all sizes. small successes like heart eyes on our instagram posts make us grin and of course there is no greater triumph than helping someone find their dream bridal look!
with so much to celebrate, some may wonder what happens when it comes time to cheer on our brand. while celebrations for our special occasions vary (picture lively bingo rounds during our holiday party and digital valentine’s for possibly our favorite holiday), we do our best to soak in these splendid moments with our teams.
A&BÉ BIRTHDAY WEEKEND
now that you have some context, we’ll share the upcoming event our teams are eagerly awaiting, OUR TENTH BIRTHDAY! on october 18th we’re turning 10 years old!
admittedly, we have been daydreaming about this day for quite some time. after creating amazon carts full of party supplies and begging our brand designer to whip up some fun signage, we think we’ve curated the perfect in-shop experience for you to join in on this birthday bash. for those shopping with us during this exciting weekend, you're in for a treat!
ABOUT OUR A&BÉ BRIDAL SHOPS
while the party decor has been top of mind (fun & design are two of our values after all), our tenth birthday has brought about nostalgia and gratitude that only felt right to place into a blog. below you’ll learn more about us and our 9 locations… actually make that 10 locations. scroll to see where year 10 is taking us!
a&bé bridal shop was founded in 2013, 7 years after our sister-shop, anna bé bridal boutique, was created in 2006. our founder and fearless leader, anna walsh, was inspired to launch a new company during a creative surge within the wedding industry.
we like to think of ourselves as the younger sister that came bursting to the bridal scene with fresh concepts and bountiful confidence. thanks to our sister-shop and industry knowledge, we instantly built a connection with brides wanting something new!
