The Couture Bridal Awards Bridal Salon of
the Year Winner of this year’s Bridal
Salon of the Year award, The Bridal Atelier
by Mark Ingram has a magnificent staff who
are dedicated to the highest level of
customer service. Not only is the salon
comfortable in feel, but brides also are
nurtured by a sales associate’s knowledge,
time and honesty. Opened just last year, The
Bridal Atelier features a broad selection of
top designer gowns. Hand-chosen by Mark
Ingram, the gowns can dress a bride for the
most casual beach wedding or the most
opulent ballroom soirée. In addition, Ingram
works closely with the designers to create
gowns exclusively for his salon. Moving
slightly away from the strapless gown feel,
the salon is featuring more on-the-shoulder
and sleeved gowns than in the
past."Strapless is classic and will always
be fashionable," Ingram said, "however, I’d
like to see newness in necklines as well."
There is also a return to opulence—skirts
feature everything from elaborate draping to
bustling and the development of new finishes
for silk satins as well as new neutral tones
such as oyster, shell, bisque and pearl.
Simple, chic and understated is in line with
Ingram’s own design sensibility, so brides
can be sure to find an array of elegant,
understated gowns during any season.
