Some girls dream of weddings their whole life. Others don't, and that's OK. Regardless, wedding planning can be a wonderfully joyous time in your life. I know, because I get to witness it at David's Bridal all the time. I get a front row seat to some of the most magical moments women and their families experience. There are several reasons why I love working at a bridal shop, and you would too.
1. You get to make a bride's wedding planning experience fun and enjoyable
There's a lot of pressure to deliver an exceptional wedding for the brides and to capture as much information about her wedding day as you can. By doing this, she can have an excellent time picking out her bridesmaid dresses and wedding gown with little to no stress.
2. You get trusted with great responsibility
My amazing managers trust me to support them and take initiative to deliver the best service I can. I always have their support when I need it, which is important.
3. Everything you do is in the best interest of the customer
Every process we have and the way we do things is always put in place so we can best serve the customer and make her experience stress-free.
4. You get to talk to brides about their wedding day
Whenever I greet a bride, I always love to hear where their venue is, what their colors are, and other wedding details. It's so rewarding to show the bride that I really care about her wedding day that she's been dreaming about.
5. You work with some incredible women
This is my shout out to the amazing staff on the store 162 team! Every woman that works with me has a unique personality and aims to deliver great service with their own touch. They know the store in and out, and always strive to keep up with frequent changes in inventory and sales. The women at David's really work to support each other so we can best fulfill our positions.
6. You are valued in your position
I feel valued by the staff in what I do, and the store could not function without my position. It feels rewarding to be doing such integral parts of the store's function.
7. There are some special traditions
I love that at David's Bridal we clap and congratulate the brides when they say yes to their dress. If you choose a wedding dress at David's Bridal, you may just get to ring a special bell.
8. Each bride and bridesmaid matters and has a special story
Each and every woman that walks into David's Bridal has a story that matters, as they should in any bridal shop. Though David's Bridal is a large chain, our store seeks to treat each customer with investment and care. Establishing relationships with customers and being a part of their whole wedding experience is an absolute blast.
Getting to work at a bridal shop is an experience unlike any other. Supporting brides in one of the highest highs of a season that life gives you a great responsibility. Any bride or bridesmaid can feel like the beauty she is when she finds the perfect dress. Seeing a bride say yes to her dress and be thrilled makes it all worth it.
