More Kari!


As promised, here are more pictures of the lovely Kari and her sweetheart, Cole. The amazing Kellie Kano captured these unbelievable images of the wedding. Please enjoy, and congrats again to Kari and Cole!





36 Years Ago...

Priscilla of Boston has been a force in the industry since 1945, designing for daughters of presidents (Johnson and Nixon), royalty (Grace Kelly), and millions of brides around the world. We recently got a first-hand look at a great vintage Priscilla gown and just had to share!

How cool is this? Working together with Shea Nichole Designs, we're creating a custom sash and veil for one of our brides due to be married in October. She and her mom brought Mom's wedding gown in and we just couldn't believe it when we saw the original shipping box in which the gown was still stored. Check out the pictures, showing Mom's gown with the box, as well as some of our modern Priscilla designs and a new shipping box. Priscilla of Boston still operates from the same address in Charlestown, Massachusetts!

We're Expanding!

We are so excited to announce that J. Major's is gaining some much needed space. We are in the process of up-fitting an additional 1300 square feet from the vacant space right next door to our existing boutique. By July, this new space will be home to our bridesmaid, mother, and flower girl collections. Our current space will remain unchanged, with the exception of an archway opening to our expansin, and more room for our brides to enjoy choosing the dress of their dreams! Follow with us over the next few weeks as the existing space is transformed into a fabulous boutique!

Here are pictures of the space before construction began:

Kari and Cole

Kari Bonebrake and Cole Kessell were married at Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden on May 23. Anna was honored to attend, but regrettably, forgot her camera! We just couldn't wait for Kari's photographer to get her professional shots to her, so we grabbed some of the best ones from Facebook. Thanks to Kari and Cole's friends for getting great pictures, and stay tuned for more of gorgeous Kari in her beautiful Lea-Ann Belter gown. Congrats, Mr. and Mrs. Kessell!



This is what happens when you bring a 3 year old in the boutique...


Logan Teague had tons of fun this past Saturday when he and his mom, Leigh, visited. Thanks for making us laugh, Logan!

Photos to Share!

This past month Anna had the opportunity to attend the wedding of Jamie and Mike. They got married on May 2 at Belk Chapel. The reception was held immediately after at The Atrium in uptown Charlotte. Here are some of Anna's pictures from the wedding:
