The wedding dress is also known as the most significant piece of clothing a lady has ever worn. And in the United States, more than 2.4 million women marry annually. So it is no surprise that brides are looking everywhere, traveling outside their home state and sometimes abroad, attempting to find the perfect dress to walk down the aisle.
And it was this situation that persuaded sisters Lesley and Jenny Bartosek to open up B. Beloved Bridal Boutique. It seemed that running a business together was their destiny, for as young girls, the two would play shop and arrange goods to be “sold” with monopoly money.
When Lesley got engaged, she quickly realized that finding the perfect and unique dress was no easy task. The sisters quickly learned that Columbus had a gap in the bridal market that they could fill. Lesley states, “That’s why we’re in the business of finding hidden gems; unique wedding robes designed by coveted and obscure designers, who care about dress construction and sourcing of amazing materials.
Lesley and Jennifer have spent hours selecting the perfect brand to offer their bride and groom, taking trends, price, quality and materials into account while ensuring to bring out a wide range of styles. The designers B. Loved carry come from as near as Cincinnati and Chicago and as far as Australia and Barcelona. And, if that wasn’t enough, B.Loved also has some organic dresses for eco-conscious brides in addition to a Beyond Bridal Bridesmaid Collection from Luna Design starting this May.
So what happens when you step in the door of B. Be loved? Brides will not get the impersonal and chaotic experience that is usually featured in many stores. B. Beloved brides are given a personal and splendid experience whatever their budget. The boutique itself is like a lovely accent to the fascinating dresses that not only simulate your visual senses but also your sense of smell with fresh flowers all around. When shopping at B. Loved, every bride is helped with tough decisions about what sort of bride she wants, how the venue influences her look, and what styles emphasize her body type. “Lesley wouldn’t let you go out in a dress unless you looked good,” Jenny said.
Just read the reviews on B.Loved’s facebook page and you will see that letting Lesley and Jennifer be a part of your white dress moment will exceed your expectations. The Bartosek sisters even included lavish event planning by Danica Nordstrom-Reding from Danica’s Signature Event on their mission for the perfect white dress moment. Danica helped design the perfect wedding with the perfect dress.
B. Loved Bridal Boutique is located in the heart of downtown Columbus at 36 W. Gay St. You can make an appointment for your white dress moment by phone at 614-395-4437 or online at lovebridal.com.
