Allure Bridals: Madison James Collection comes to ESB February 5-7, 2021!

Because we can’t think of any better way to stave off those winter blues than with an ELITE store event where brides can receive 10% off gowns and FREE alterations (basic alterations, see team member for details) . Did we mention a FREE bridal hair + makeup trial ($200 value) when saying yes to your dream dress at one of these exciting trunk shows?!

What our brides are saying about their #sayyestothedress moments:


”I had the best time shopping at Elite Secrets! I had visited one other bridal shop and did not have the best experience. The first shop tried to push extreme alterations on me and told me several things that Elite Secrets proved to be false. Michaela was an amazing bridal stylist! I told her what I was looking for and she nailed it with the first dress. I ended up liking her pick way better than the dresses I picked out and it was ultimately the one I ended up buying. They made me truly feel like a bride. I highly recommend Elite Secrets!”


Why say YES at an Elite Secrets Bridal Trunk Show?

  • Get hand selected NEW designs only in our store for one weekend only!

  • Receive 10% off any wedding gown!!

  • Receive expert styling expertise from your personal consultant

  • Receive FREE alterations on your wedding gown

  • Receive FREE bridal hair + makeup trial when saying YES to your dream dress

Want to turn your Trunk Show appointment into a FABULOUS party?!? Pop open some bubbly and book our VIP Elite Experience!

To make this trunk show even more special, we’re giving you 10% off your Cristiano Lucci gown. But you MUST say, “Yes” to the dress.

If this is your first bridal trunk show, we know wedding dress shopping can be a bit overwhelming. But fear not, we’re here to help!

WHAT IS A BRIDAL TRUNK SHOW?

A trunk show is a special event in a bridal boutique where they invite a designer to showcase their collection. Sometimes it’s a one-day event, but for particularly popular collections, it could last for multiple days. Often the designers themselves, or stylists from the fashion house will be on hand to help you find the right dress.

Trunk shows are a particularly good opportunity to check out a visiting designer whose full collections aren’t stocked in your city.

EXPERT TIPS FOR ATTENDING A BRIDAL TRUNK SHOW

So, now you know what bridal trunk shows are, how do you get the most out of shopping at one? Here’s where bridal beauty expert LaTonya of Elite Secrets Bridal steps in.

1. What Lies Beneath Feel your best underneath your wedding dress. The appropriate undergarments will not only help you feel your best; they will help your dress look the best. Opt for nude-colored underwear and a great strapless bra. Bring your undies to the appointment to see how they work with your desired dress.

2. Bring a Companion Take a trusted friend—someone you trust that will give you sound advice. Honest encouragement and constructive feedback can be extremely helpful and great company can up the factor for your bridal dress appointment.

Leave the whole entourage, though. Too many conflicting opinions can leave you confused and stressed.

3. Mind Your Budget Purchasing your dress at the trunk show is a great way to spend a little less on your dream wedding dress. We’re giving you 10% off your gown. But you MUST say, “Yes” to the dress to redeem these goodies.

4. Necklines, Shape, and Silhouettes Oh My There are so many variations to a wedding dress. Have an idea of what neckline, shape and silhouette you like best. Research the different styles, so you’re familiar will the lingo, too.

You will soon find you have narrowed down your style, and what is flattering for your figure.

5. How High? Bear in mind the height of your heels you plan to wear on your wedding day when you begin your dress shopping.

Keep in mind that hems cannot be lengthened, only shortened, so it’s a good idea to take the maximum heel height with you.

Ready to attend the trunk show? Here’s how to attend this event and say yes to your dream wedding dress:

Book your appointment online at EliteSecretsBridal.com/contact or call 410.727.7000.

Grab your bride tribe. We’ll bring the champagne!

I walked out with a beautiful gown and I am so beyond happy this was such a great first experience all around! I’d definitely would recommend coming here!

Imagine wedding dresses that will have your guests talking from the moment they lay eyes on you. Whether you plan to tie the knot in a garden ceremony or say I do in a city ballroom, Elite Secrets Bridal’s Allure Trunk Show is THE place to find your perfect wedding dress.

Beyond extraordinary gowns, shopping with Elite Secrets Bridal supports a worthy cause! A portion of the proceeds from retail sales of the bridal trunk shows will go to For 3 Sisters, a Maryland-based nonprofit organization with a mission to raise awareness and improve the quality of life for men and women affected by breast cancer.

“For 3 Sisters’ commitment to men and women affected by breast cancer is unparalleled,” said LaTonya Turnage, bridal expert, and owner of Elite Secrets. “The organization's core program, Road to Resources, provides resources for everyday needs so those affected can focus on fighting, surviving, and healing. Working with For 3 Sisters and knowing that our dresses are making a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer is everything to me.”
