CLOSED FOR VACATION FRIDAY, JULY 2ND – FRIDAY JULY 9TH
We know that this has been a very trying year for all of us. Vanessa’s Modern Bride has implemented the following policies and procedures, guided by CDC guidelines. We have done so in order to maintain the health and safety of our staff and clients during the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite these procedures, we will try to the best of our abilities to give our brides the exceptional service and experience that we have been known for over the last 37 years.

5. Your guests will be seated, while you, the bride and staff talk about your dream gown. STAFF ONLY will pull gowns, with a maximum of 10. Gowns and accessories must be cleaned and sanitized in between appointments, so we are trying to minimize the time needed between appointments.
