Growing up in Crystal Lake, Leah would look out the car window whenever she passed Kathryn’s Bridal and dream about the dresses inside. Years later, she booked her first bridal appointment with us—and found Bridget by Maggie Sottero.
Leah knew she wanted to try the gown as soon as she saw it on the hanger. Once she put it on, she had the moment she’d been waiting for.
“I grew up in Crystal Lake and always looked out the car window when we passed Kathryn’s, dreaming about the dresses. When it was finally my turn, it was the first—and only—appointment I booked. I didn’t expect to find my dress that day… but the second I saw it on the hanger, I couldn’t stop looking at it. When I tried it on, I just knew—it was THE dress.”
We were honored to help Leah find her wedding dress and complete her look with a bridal veil and alterations. Congratulations, Leah!
If you’re beginning your own dress search, request a bridal appointment at Kathryn’s Bridal in McHenry, Illinois. We welcome brides from Crystal Lake, the Chicago area, Rockford, and southern Wisconsin.
