Joanne Ludwar, the owner of Nora Rose Bridal, a full-service bridal and special occasion boutique located in Creston is looking forward to another busy wedding season.

Nora Rose Bridal has been in operation since 2017 and has quickly become a favorite boutique among Kootenay brides.

“I realized there were very few places to purchase dresses and accessories for weddings and special events in the Creston Valley. That’s when Nora Rose Bridal became a reality. I named the boutique Nora Rose in honor of my mom and my daughter who are the top influences in my life, they’re both named Nora Rose, “ said Ludwar.

Nora Rose Bridal has a large selection of couture bridal, bridesmaid, and prom gowns in a wide variety of colours, shapes, and sizes.

“Our dresses come from two suppliers in the states and have been in previous bridal shops where they were tried on but not purchased, that’s how we can afford to sell them at such a reasonable rate. Dresses are 50% off the retail selling price so if a dress is $1,000 anywhere else, it’s $500 here, that includes cleaning. We clean every dress before it goes out the door. Alterations are available in-house if needed,” explains Ludwar.

Each bride receives a one-on-one consultation with a bridal stylist to find the dress of her dreams and confidently complete her look with lingerie and accessories.

“We offer brides the opportunity to share their wedding dress shopping experience with family and friends in a private viewing room with champagne, wine or sparkling water. Reservations are recommended.”

Nora Bridal has brides visit the salon from all over the Kootenays and as far away as Calgary.

“We have brides and their bridal party come to Creston to shop with us and stay in town for a weekend. Visiting the local wineries after buying a wedding dress is always fun.”

A one-stop shop for brides in the Kootenays, Nora Rose Bridal also rents suits, backdrops, table linens, chair covers, sashes, and table runners.
