Concierge Styling for the Bride and Mother Of the Bride

“It’s amazing how sometimes you meet someone who later becomes not only an invaluable help but also a dear friend. That was my experience when I visited Chynna Pope’s shop to pick up my dress and was introduced to Lesley, a bridal stylistt. I was intrigued and started following her work on IG, and I’m so grateful I did. When my daughter Ali got engaged, I suggested that she reach out to Lesley. Since Ali lives in Wisconsin and I was in California, having a consultant to guide us was essential. 

Lelsey went above and beyond. She created a personalized look book for us, contacted local bridal salons with exactly what Ali was envisioning, scheduled all our appointments, and was point person for taking photos and videos of all the options so Ali’s future mother in law and I could enjoy the moment. 

 Thanks to her organization, we had a full weekend of dress shopping, and by the second shop, Ali found the dress. We even canceled the remaining appointments and celebrated over lunch! Lesley didn’t stop there—she helped style Ali for bridal showers and events, assisted with bridesmaid dresses, helped suggest modifications for my mother of the bride Amsale gown for the cathedral wedding, and offered thoughtful calming guidance at every dress fitting for Ali. 

Lesley’s expertise, patience, and warmth made the process smooth and truly enjoyable. She’s worth booking early in your journey so you can relax and trust that every detail is being thoughtfully handled. I wholeheartedly recommend Lesley—meeting her that day at Chynna’s shop was a blessing.”

Mother of the Bride Styling

“What a challenging combination—a soon-to-be mother of the bride who is a procrastinator that hates to shop. Without Lesley, I would not have been able to share the honor with her father of walking our daughter down the aisle, as I WOULD NOT HAVE HAD A DRESS.

Lesley literally emailed me daily with dress recommendations, starting with trying to understand what was appropriate for an outdoor winter wedding at 10,000 feet in the Colorado mountains. She literally reviewed hundreds of dresses with me (again, I am the pickiest person ever!), narrowing it down to what would complement my daughter’s couture gown, and what I would feel most comfortable in.

She completely took over, thank goodness, and had dresses shipped and returned effortlessly, with no involvement from me other than trying them on. The final selection was a dress that I love to this day. The dress made me feel like the very proud and glowing MOB that I wanted to be for my daughter. P.S. My daughter works with the fashion industry so there was a bit of extra pressure to make sure the dress was right—and it definitely was!”

Non-Traditional Bridal Styling

“After 43 years of waiting for the perfect partner, it finally happened!!! The excitement, the celebration- everything a girl could ask for. Then reality sets in---I have to plan a wedding—and I work long days, when will this happen?!?! I immediately started scrolling through wedding dress pictures online, and found myself just lost in designers.

Enter THE ONE Gown--Lesley was a LIFESAVER!!! She immediately took over. She knew the designers, the looks, the options…She created Lookbooks specific to my likes and saved me a ton of time that I would have otherwise spent scrolling online. After drilling down, she even took over appointment scheduling, and then we were off to try on dresses.

She helped me find THE ONE!!! AND I’m SO excited to wear a dress that’s “me” as I enter the next chapter in life. Lesley’s approach is easy. She is an expert at what she does, and she LOVES helping women feel beautiful. I felt less stressed knowing she had the wedding dress styling under control. I would choose Lesley as “THE ONE” any and every day.”

Virtual Bridal Styling + Wedding Day Concierge (gifted to bride)

“After one of my dear friends got engaged, I wanted to think of a unique and special gift that would ensure her day is everything she’s ever dreamed it would be. I knew she would love to receive the help of a bridal stylist not because she’s not stylish—rather, because she’s incredibly busy and wasn’t sure which city she should even start shopping in!

Lesley helped her decide on her wedding day style - which was perfectly her! - and made the process SO easy and fun for her. Her services included assistance on the day of the wedding, which I’m told was truly a lifesaver for the entire bridal party.”

In-Person Styling + Wedding Day Concierge

“Lesley was by far the most amazing stylist we could’ve possibly hoped for and truly surpassed every expectation we had from start to finish. She made our wedding go off without a hitch.

Lesley made my daughter (the bride) feel like a princess, confident beautiful and not with a minute of worry because she knew everything was being taken care of and it was. Lesley had the ability to foresee any possible glitch and she would seamlessly swoop in like a fairy godmother, wave her magic wand and somehow make everything run smoothly.

I could honestly say without Lesley, our wedding could have been a disaster with so many moving parts. I am ecstatic to tell the world that with Lesley’s help, we pulled off the wedding of a lifetime! I could not recommend Lesley and THE ONE Gown more!”

Wedding Guest Attire

“At six weeks’ postpartum, I didn’t have the time or energy to put into finding the right dress for a black-tie wedding. Lesley found options for me, had them sent to my house, and I was able to work with her to select a beautiful, unique, and unexpected dress.

Aside from her taste level and ability to quickly secure dress options, what I appreciated about Lesley was how she was able to take a time I wasn’t feeling my most confident and turn it into a time I could feel comfortable.

As a freelance writer and CRNA, I know very well what my time is worth. Lesley was able to save me so much personal time that made her services an incredibly cost-effective option for me. Instead of spending a lot of time trying or ordering dresses, getting frustrated, and probably giving up, I was able to have a complete, head-to-toe outfit that I felt good, no GREAT, about.

I’m so grateful to her, and I have even offered to renew my vows IF it means she gets to help me pick a dress. She is amazing. Thank you, Lesley!”

“I could not find a dress on my own for my daughter’s wedding, despite my “black belt in shopping.” The difficulty was finding something that I felt comfortable in, but that also was appropriate for the grandeur of the event. Lesley weeded through the endless options for me so I could focus on other things. We ended up designing a custom Monique L’Huillier dress for me to wear, which was Lesley’s idea and to her credit. She made sure I felt special AND comfortable while also taking into consideration what my daughter wanted me to wear--a delicate balance for sure! I absolutely loved the dress I wore that wonderful day and will always look back fondly on my experience with her.”
