No need to drive to Dallas, A True Bridal Experience on Line Ave….

After five years into it, these two continue to make finding your bridal gown an enchanting experience.

Co-owners of Happily Ever After Bridal on Line Ave, Dionne O’Neil and Terri Zacha are still expanding and growing their little business and catering to brides with a variety of wedding day dreams.

If your budget is $500 or $5000, they offer gowns and designers to satisfy the most style savvy brides.

With more budget friendly lines like Allure Romance, WTOO, and Stella York, and bridal couture like Hayley Paige, Allure Couture and Martina Liana, they’ve got gowns to suit your taste and your pocketbook.

“We’ve expanded our couture collections to now offer a variety of designers with exquisite beading, lace and detailing to satisfy our brides that have a love of high fashion” says Dionne.

Alternatively, the team has opened up a satellite location also in the Pierremont Mall, which caters to brides on a moderate budget or tight timeline. Their Ready To Wear-Suite 5, has a wide variety of gowns all discounted to $999 and under and brides can take them home that day! “Many brides don’t realize that ordering a gown can take several months, and that isn’t always an option” explains Terri.

Surprisingly, neither owner is a Shreveport native.

Dionne is from Long Beach, CA and Terri is a Texas native from D/FW. Dionne moved her with her military husband, and she and her stepmom quickly came up with the idea for a bridal store. “We think our geographic diversity gives us a unique fashion perspective. Our combined fashion senses help us keep things fresh and alive”. “We no longer offer special occasion or prom, and keep our focus on the bride and bridesmaid, which is what we do best. We make magic here everyday and it’s exciting when a bride finds the gown that makes her feel her most beautiful. You can see it in the bride’s face, first the smile, then the tears… and then the whole family is in tears! It’s very emotional when a bride finds her gown” says Dionne.

“We love what we do, and working with brides is such a rewarding experience. To get to be a little part of their special day, is very fulfilling. We love seeing their whole look come together and we have been invited to several weddings. We’ve grown to love Shreveport, and the community has really embraced us and our little boutique, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to get to be a part of so many people’s lives” says Terri.
