Our Story
Luxe & Lace Bridal Studio started way back in 1976 as Bellevue Bridal. We opened our doors with a simple mission: to help brides feel stunning on one of the most unforgettable days of their lives. As the longest standing store in the Seattle area, we’ve been styling, celebrating, and swooning over love stories of every kind for over 50 fabulous years!
In 2021, we opened Embrace Bridal with a mission to create an inclusive space allowing brides to try on every gown in the store and have a memorable gown shopping experience, regardless of size. Since opening its doors, over 1500 plus-size brides from the PNW and all over the country have worn gowns from Embrace Bridal.
In 2025, we turned the page to a new chapter. We packed up and moved from Bellevue to the heart of Seattle, reimagining ourselves and rebranding as Luxe & Lace Bridal Studio. The new name reflects everything we’ve become: modern yet timeless, effortlessly chic, and devoted to celebrating the beauty of every bride.
We also joined forces with Embrace Bridal and moved into a beautiful loft space together to create something truly special: an inclusive space where every bride feels like they belong to make your bridal experience magical, memorable, and unapologetically you.
At Luxe & Lace, we believe in love, laughter, and pretty things. Lots of pretty things. Let’s find your yes dress-and have a little fun while we’re at it.

What I enjoy doing outside of work: There isn't much time outside of work for a small business owner - but when I do find time I love to travel, diy home projects, gardening (flowers), wine tasting, and spending time with friends and family
