meet hannah
Hi! My name is Hannah. After years of styling hundreds of brides and managing several trendy bridal shops in New York City and Pittsburgh, I decided I wanted to strike out on my own and create a bridal shop full of wedding dresses for “bridechillas.” I opened Bridal Maven in February 2021 in a pop up space in Dormont and expanded to our current storefront in October 2021! I have loved serving brides in private appointments and am committed to approachable, attentive service in a comfortable yet elegant setting. When not helping brides find their dream dress for less, you can find me onstage in the local community theater scene or at home playing Stardew Valley with my kiddos.
Bridal Maven has been fortunate enough to add to our sales team, learn more about our stylists below!
meet Sara
Sara was born and raised in western New York but after moving to Pittsburgh for college, she loved it so much that she never left! After five years working in fashion, including styling and men's suiting, she's so excited to be bringing her longtime love of everything weddings to Bridal Maven. Her favorite part about working with brides is unifying a bride’s vision for her wedding with her personality to find the perfect dress.
Outside of the shop, Sara stays busy with lots of reading, playing guitar, and playing video games (badly!) with her husband.
meet nicole
Nicole is a local Pittsburgher who graduated from Point Park. After starting her career in communications, Nicole felt drawn to the sparkly world of bridal. Her favorite part of the appointment is hearing how the couple met! In her downtime, Nicole can be found planning her wedding with her fiancée Michelle and watching reruns of Gilmore Girls.
Bridal Maven is a gown resale shop where newly engaged brides can score amazing wedding dresses at beyond amazing prices from newlyweds who are passing the beauty forward - and seeing a return on their investment in the process! Sustainable fashion is good for our planet, too, and reusing gorgeous gowns is a win-win for everyone! I want to make sure that Bridal Maven is a part of the community, too, so we have a small selection of donated gowns where the proceeds go to local charities.
Bridal Maven is also a great place to buy and consign veils and accessories!
Dream gowns at dreamier prices. I can’t wait for you to be a Bridal Maven!
We are currently accepting gowns and bridal accessories from the last three to five years. Submit your consignment form today!
