The wedding gown.
Something you have dreamt of since you were a young girl. It sets the tone for the entire wedding and has to be perfect. Mestads, the primer bridal salon in Central Minnesota, has the selection and expertise to help you find the perfect gown.
Mestads has a long history of providing picture perfect wedding gowns. Cathy Mestad opened her first store in 1980 in Rochester. She then followed up by opening the St. Cloud location in 1990.
As a full service bridal salon, Mestads carriers wedding gowns, bridesmaid gowns, mothers gowns, flower girl dresses and a large selection of prom gowns. Don’t worry guys – they also have a selection of tuxedos.
With hundreds of gowns to choose from, brides are sure to find the style they’ve been searching for. Mestads carries a wide range of exclusive companies. From moderate to couture bridal gowns, there is something for every type of wedding. Manager Crista says the store favorite is the company Pronovias from Barcelona, Spain.
Mestads stays ahead of the competition because of their attention to the customer. They make finding the perfect wedding dress a fun and memorable experience by hosting special events for brides.
The first Thursday of the month is Girls Night Out at Mestads. Local vendors are brought in to showcase different items for brides to look at pertaining to their wedding, while brides and bridesmaids enjoy food and wine. A discount is also offered on the bridesmaids gowns.
In addition to Girls Night Out, Mestads also hosts different trunk shows on the weekends. In a trunk show, a designer of a gown company comes to the store and showcases the current line they have on display at the fashion shows. It is a great way for brides to check out the newest styles while deciding on the perfect gown.
Some advice for brides – try to begin your quest for the perfect wedding gown at least one year before your wedding. This may sound early, but some designers can take more than six months for the gown to arrive in the store once the order is placed.
Mestads has the selection and expertise to help you find the wedding gown of your dreams. Visit their new location in the Division Place Fashion Center. For more information, visit www.mestads.com or call 320.252.9634.
